  • Thank you for this information, I am using it in my presentation. I found this to be very informative on basic work with MFR.

    Again. Thank you.

  • Excellent video and especially good sound during recording. But you might need some search engine optimization help. I didn't come across your DVDs I was searching and unfortunately I already purchased another MFR DVD series. Wish I had purchased yours instead.

  • I like this video, great techniques to use in my myofascial class!

  • It is very Fasha-nating!!!

  • this video is a lot better than some other ones i've seen on youtube. it adds to what i'm learning in school on MFR and gives me more technique to use in my massages

  • Great explanation of tools. Very good learning video.  Ill be watching more. Thank you

  • This is a great video clip. I foundther is more than one to way work with fascia. I beleive what is beingshowb is a more direct form of fascia. There is also indirect myofascial release. you need to decide as a practitioner what works best for you.

  • excellent demo, thank you for sharing your knowledge.

  • Very nice, very informative......I enjoyed this video.

  • awesome! I also do myofascial work prior to do massage. It allows me to feel where the constricted areas are or Knots. I like the pin and stretch move, thanks for this video

  • Do you have a dvd available for upper body myofascial? i am certified in neuromuscular therapy and do a bit of myofascial and have found your approach to myofascial that can affect erector spinae/rhomboids/trapezius much more effective then the double loose fist drag i was doing. At times i would not get the 'hook' needed, recently i adopted your 'palm of hand' drag and it has proven to be very effective. Thanks for the video, it has helped me help clients at the clinic im working at.

  • Check out Art Riggs. I teach bodywork and have done some training with him. He is very good and his video clips are quite informative.

  • I loved the video and that you made it really easy to follow and understand.

  • Better than other vids I've watched but I'm still confused. Is not myofascial release palpating from origin to insertion. What muscles were you working on(completely)? Seems like this is just simple deep tissue. I did like the scapula moves. Could you really palpate the supra/infra teres minor from origin to insertion in that move? Anywho, best vid. so far though.

  • Myofascial release is not working individual muscles. Its purpose is to lengthen, or liquify the sheets fascia covering muscles, or muscle groups. In this clip I'm addressing the first layer of fascia. As in the clip, I start out each session with MFR, then add lotion (sometimes) to adress specific muscles and their tendons. This clip is just one of 4 sections showing MFR. The sections on how I treat individual muscles comprises a larger portion of the 100 minute DVD on the upper limbs.

  • Thank you so much for reply. I have just recently got out of school and they never mentioned the word myofascial, they taught us Structural Integration, Movement Techniques and a few other modalities, I think might be envolved in Myofascial, but I'm not sure and a woman who I just started working with, who has great technique told me Myofascial Release is starting from origin to insertion on each muscle. I'm confussed. I need a class! Again, thanks so much for your reply and posts.

  • @palpateit MFR can most certainly address individual muscles with being specific to origin and insertion as you lengthen in that direction....at least in the MFR I do. Is the common thought process about MFR the same as your own? That you can't or don't address specific muscles?

  • Nice video Gary, thanks! I hope that more therapists begin incorporating MFR because it really works.

  • Very good stuff! Thanks :)

  • Thank you for posting this. I really enjoyed this video not only for the great techniques, but also because you explain why you are doing it and also mention whcih muscles you are targeting at times.

  • Very interesting. Would love to learn more

  • I swear to God, every female has a tattoo. No more originality.

  • @foppa123 Dude, you say this about every massage vid. Now who's lacking originality? Get over it and enjoys the vids.

  • @tinamariahamm

    Rolfing

  • @foppa123 I'm in massage school right now at a Holistic private Healing Arts School. I think I'm the only one who doesn't have a tattoo or one of the few. I don't understand why people are putting all these chemical inks into our system. I really think it's injecting toxins that are doing damage later unless they are using natural ink. The only ink I'd use right now would be Henna. But, I have no desire for a tattoo

  • @lovsoup Yes totally agree. All those chemicals in tattoo ink can't be good for you. People think they are being original with tattoos but they have become so common.

  • Thank you for this video! I have been wondering what myofascial massage/ release is. I want to learn it in school. I hear the fascia is so important before getting the muscles to release.

  • @foppa123 And how would not having a tattoo be original whatsoever?

  • Nice technique and explanations. I embedded into my site.

  • Great video Gary!

  • looks really relaxing. There is much more information what every touch does.

    Very good video. keep on!
