HEATHER BRYAN
PTA LMT Expert
As a 20+ year PTA/LMT I have a mission to deliver personalized, effective, compassionate, non-judgmental, hands-on care with authentic lasting results. It was not until my own injury, did I realize that traditional therapeutic approach to treating the myofascial tissues of the body were flawed, too forceful and aggressive. While I was increasingly experiencing the adversities of pain, immobility, loss of function and loss of my joy for life combined with the inability to find lasting results or relief even for a short period, I began my quest to find an effective therapy. I simply could not settle for being told there was nothing but surgery or medication or even that there was no cause for my body's current state of being. I simply could not accept surgery or pain medication as the only answer! I intuitively knew there was something wrong causing all of my pain and symptoms, it was not all in my head. I just knew somewhere there was someone had the approach my body needed. My quest lead me to discover John F. Barnes Myofascial Release. I experienced immediate, profound results that lasted! Instantly knowing JFB-MFR was the missing link not only in my own healing journey but was what was needed in my profession journey as well. Along with the instant results I received, I began intense training in Myofascial Release in order to provide the same valuable transformative form of therapy to my own clients.
I have devoted my career completely to Myofascial Release and am blessed to receive training directly from John F. Barnes. I have served 2 internships at his treatment facilities and have over 650 hrs of hands-on training to date. I have also participated in the intensive treatment program as a patient. The results were profound and even resulted in regaining 1.4 inches in height. I am forever dedicated to mastering the "HEART"isrty of Myofascial Release. The skills of MFR are truly an art form as well as a Healing, Energizing, Aligning, Restoring, Transforming approach to health care. MFR is gentle, effective, compassionate, personalized and a non-judgmental form of hands-on therapy that gives authentic and lasting "RESULTS".
Both as a therapist and as a patient, I can help assist in your own healing journey so that you experience the profound improvements in the quality of your life, body, mind, and spirit. We all deserve to live a joyous, active, and pain-free life. Pain does not seem to follow a traditional work schedule of M-F with weekends/holidays off, pain strikes at any time. I will always strive to make every effort to always be available when you are in most need of assistance! If ever in doubt or need just pick up the phone and I am just a phone call away.
