What Are The Benefits of
Myofascial Release Intensive Treatments?
The intensive programs allow patients who are travelling from across the UK and internationally or those with chromic pain to immerse themselves in treatments in order to facilitate heir healing.
Whilst MFR is a hands-on whole body approach to healthcare it also incorporates methods to allow the patient to gain insight into their unconscious habitual holding and bracing patterns and how we can use our mind to promote health. These bracing patterns, both emotional and physical, have created a straight-jacket like hold on the body that few complementary or allied healthcare professions have been able to break through. This is mainly because these patterns have existed out with the patients awareness. Without awareness there is no choice.
With MFR techniques and Unwinding the patient can eventually grasp the valuable information that has been hidden within their unconscious mind in order to allow them to heal. Whilst the process occurs in all MFR sessions the intensive treatments allow time for the processing of this information, both physically and emotionally without the possibility of old familiar bracing and holding patterns creeping back into the body and mind in between treatments. This is a valuable gift that the intensives offer, time for change. Healing is a process not an event.
