What should I expect from a treatment?
Although highly effective, you begin to see that MFR therapies are slow paced and take time to facilitate. Remember, it took longer than an hour to get the way you are, it takes longer than an hour to remediate. Generally speaking, you can expect to feel different after the first session even if you can’t put a finger on exactly what it is that feels different. The second session usually gives rise to more notable improvement and by the third appointment you should be able to identify specific changes. We cannot as therapists or patients place specific expectations on what the outcome might be. Our bodies know better than our brains what inherently is wrong and will seek to change those areas. We are aware only of the symptoms we feel. It is likely that you will notice changes you weren’t looking for in areas not even touched during the MFR session. Just be aware of your body and any changes that occur. It is truly amazing what you might notice.
During a MFR session, the therapist should be aware of all movement within your body and will follow it as it unwinds. Your body will tell the therapist where and how they should treat. Because every situation is different, there is no specific routine and you expect only a portion of the body to be directly touched during any given session. Know that the entire body is being treated even if the therapist touches, for example, only the head or the feet. The body will unravel it’s dysfunctions in a prioritized order. Be patient and trust your body’s self knowledge. This is how the body is designed.
MFR is applied without lubricant and only a gentle touch is used as compression and tension is applied to the tissues. Blocks and supports may be placed under the body to allow gravity to do some of the work. Your body will realign itself in much the same manner it became misaligned if put in the proper position to do so.

What do I wear?
Because MFR may requires a lot of movement that is not traditional to massage work, the client is usually clothed in a bathing suit (two pieces for ladies) or underwear or loose shorts. The less a client is wearing but still modest the better. Your therapist will need to be able to assess the structures of your body visually and by palpation. Access to as much of the body surface as possible is necessary as the surface of the body is used to manipulate the inner structures.
