Jocelyn has trained directly with John F. Barnes (JFB) and his staff. She uses only the JFB-MFR techniques when administering myofascial release to her clients.
Satisfied Clients Say ...
"I had no idea what to expect from my MFR treatments. I definitely had pain between my shoulder blades and up my neck. During our first session, Jocelyn did an evaluation and explained my trouble spots to me. After two treatment sessions I no longer felt the constricting pain in my back. MFR is about letting go and allowing your body to release and renew - I can certainly attest to its affectiveness. Thanks Jocelyn! I'm all bouncy and free now!"
