🌿 John F. Barnes Myofascial Release
Gentle. Profound. Life-Changing.
At Key City Myofascial Release, we offer a transformative approach to healing through John F. Barnes Myofascial Release (JFB-MFR)—a safe, highly effective hands-on therapy that relieves pain, improves mobility, and supports deep, lasting healing.
What Is Fascia?
Fascia is the connective tissue network that surrounds every muscle, bone, nerve, and organ in your body. Over time, injuries, surgeries, inflammation, and stress can cause the fascia to become tight and restricted. This tension can lead to:
-
Chronic or unexplained pain
-
Reduced flexibility and movement
-
Postural imbalances
-
Fatigue or emotional strain
How JFB-MFR Works
Unlike traditional massage, the John F. Barnes method uses gentle, sustained pressure (held for 3–5 minutes or longer) to release fascial restrictions. The goal is not to force the tissue, but to allow it to unwind and let go—supporting healing from the inside out.
What You Can Expect
Each session is unique and tailored to your needs. During treatment, you may notice:
-
Warmth, pulsing, or gentle movement in the tissue
-
Emotional release or memories surfacing
-
Relief from long-held pain or tension

“Your body knows how to heal—you just have to give it space to release.”
— John F. Barnes, PT
