Greg Gits Expert Level MFR Therapist
Greg combines an Expert Level John F Barnes MFR Therapy practice with a 15 year experience doing his own work as an MFR client. Greg brings a unique knowledge of emotional work through the body as a highly skilled facilitator of men's work for the past 21 years. This work helps people locate their emotions in the body and allows for deeper, more complete releases on the MFR table. He has lead a healing circle for men for 15 years.
After many years of hypertension, arrythmia and panic attacks, Greg discovered the life-healing affects of MFR which fuels his passion to help others.

What is Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is a gentle, sustained pressure on areas of the body that are tight, hard or tender. Called restrictions, they are often symptoms of a particular condition you may have been treated for. MFR treats not merely the symptom but a release often begins a chain reaction to an unfelt source. By listening to and treating the entire body, long-held pain and tension is relieved and mobility restored.

What Is Fascia
Fascia is another name for the three dimensional connective tissue that extends throughout the body, supporting, protecting and infusing all bodily systems down to the cellular level. The fascial system affects all bodily functions: muscular, metabolic, neurological cellular etc. Through physical or emotional trauma, inflammation, repetitive behavior or poor posture, fascia tends to tighten down protectively (as much as 2000 lbs per square inch), interrupting the body's normal functioning, causing pain, loss of function and can lead to more serious conditions. As an unbroken network running head to toe, when tension or a restriction occurs somewhere in the body, like a sweater being pulled, other areas feel the tightening and may also experience pain and begin to lose mobility.
