Myofascial Release Co-Treatment
A co-treatment session is designed to utilize techniques that can only be applied with two therapists working on a client at the same time. This approach has the potential to greatly increase the rate at which change occurs and therefore save money by expediting the results in fewer sessions. Many clients can benefit from co-treatment sessions because, with two therapists, they can work on different ends of the fascial system. This can allow for the ability to address more restrictions and do so more thoroughly.
Both Brian and Michele have taken over a decade of MFR training that included multiple-therapist techniques and they have witnessed amazing results in their sessions with clients as well as their own personal healing journeys. Brian and Michele have both benefited greatly from receiving dual therapist sessions over the years and know first hand how it can provide a different level of experience that can often help shift someone out of a plateau in the journey to wellness.
While it is rare to have access to two such highly skilled therapists (an opportunity for which most clients have to travel to John Barnes’ MFR treatment centers), perhaps the most important aspect of a co-treatment is the healing space created in the connection between Michele and Brian, the two therapists, in conjunction with the connection with and the intention of the client. It is extremely powerful to have the intent of three people focused on the client’s healing!
You are a good candidate for a co-treatment session if:
- You want to jump start your treatment program
- You have limited time to come in for MFR sessions
- You have an acute problem that is affecting your daily life
- You have reached a plateau in your current treatment program and are not improving
- You want to save money on your MFR treatment program
60 minute co-treatment session $200
90 minute co-treatment session $300
Therapeutic Retreats
At times, pain responses or injuries have been unresponsive to therapy in other settings, or are deeply ingrained and need a more intensive approach. The therapeutic retreat program offers an opportunity to accelerate the healing process. This is modeled after the intensive programs at the Myofascial Release Treatment Centers in Paoli, PA and Sedona, AZ. JerseyShore Myofascial Release Center offers a 1-week option for those who are unable to take advantage of these phenomenal 2 and 3-week programs at the treatment centers.
- A major cause in chronic dysfunction is ongoing accommodation to previous problems with inefficient structural alignment and movement patterns. The intensified treatment schedule undermines obsolete holding or postural patterns, and facilitates a return to normal function of the various integrated systems of the body-mind complex, thus accelerating the healing journey.
Treatment hours are generally between 9 -6 Monday through Friday. Saturday appointments are also available. The Intensive treatment sessions can be scheduled for up to 3 hours in a day. These hours are typically split into 2 or 3 sessions to allow time for processing. The exact schedule is determined by the needs of the individual and by therapist availability. Time for daily study, journaling, therapeutic exercises and rest periods is included. There are beaches, antique stores and some unique shops in Toms River for wandering and resting during your breaks. There are also local hotel and Bed and Breakfast accommodations located nearby.
