Myofascial release ?

[Terilyn12]

I have started using Bowenwork along with myofascial release because of all the success stories I have read. Only had 4 sessions so far. Has anyone had good results from this?

I am not familiar with it but will look it up.

I have had a few myofascial massages and this was before my mbc diagnosis

I was in pain and didn’t know what was wrong with me apart from a bad riding accident prior to that

I found the massages were fine but the following days I felt dreadful..pain was worse ...but of course that was probably from the numerous bone mets and it probably stirred everything up...I was diagnosed a few months later

I know I haven’t really answered your question and I’m intrigued as to why you think they are of benefit

I researched thru John Barnes and do the myofascial release , maybe that is different as there is no massage involved just long periods of pressing and stretching the fascial tissue. The fascial system holds and conducts liquid energy and Info. The wet connective tissue is a liquid acting as a semiconductor

From what I have found - per Barnes research, inflammatory response can produce pressure of approx 2000 pounds per sq inch

We need fluid in our cells to conduct signals thru the nervous system so this release allows the cells to have the unrestricted room to move and to collect that fluid

I have not had any pain with this treatment (and I have bone Mets all over 😪)... I am really hopeful for this treatment, but maybe newer in the US - I know that John Barnes is in Canada ♥️ .... I will be sensitive to any pain I feel in bones 👍🏼

I will update when I see any improvements ... I have labs on Thursday and I will have had 4 treatments since my labs a week and a half ago. PS... my Letrozole stopped working after only 10 months 😪 ... so I replaced with Faslodex. Within a few days, my joints stopped hurting!!!!!! I didn’t realize how harsh Letrozole is, even though I read all the comments!!! The Faslodex shots are rough, and tons of hot flashes now, but no joint pain ♥️♥️♥️
