Trauma Release
WHY ADD TRAUMA/EMOTIONAL RELEASE WITH YOUR MFR SESSION?
Tana and Frances can add in emotional/trauma release with your MFR sessions, as it significantly enhances both the physical and emotional releases that come with Myofascial Release. Traumatic experiences throughout your life can settle into the body and impact the nervous system developing:
- Chronically tight muscles
- Bracing, rigidity and posture patterns
- Feeling disconnected from the body (living only in the head)
- Inability to relax, breathe deeply or feel peaceful
Body-focused (somatic) work addresses the imprints trauma can leave by using the body as a living map of our held experiences. This approach focuses first on calming and regulating the nervous system to create a sense of safety and control. For many, this is an important precursor to working with the fascial system, as a nervous system in a chronic state of fight or flight or hyper-vigilance will not allow muscles to release until it feels safe. Somatic bodywork uses gentle touch, inquiry, breath, movement and/or sound to create space in the system to digest these experiences and return to a regulated state. Tana specializes in this combination of treatments.
WHY ADD GUIDED MEDITATION (HYPNOTHERAPY) WITH YOUR MFR SESSION?
Frances can add Life Coaching, Guided Meditation and/or Hypnotherapy to your MFR session, as it significantly enhances both the physical and emotional releases that come with Myofascial Release.

WHAT IS GUIDED IMAGERY/MEDITATION?
Guided imagery is a method for managing your stress. It’s a relaxation technique that involves visualizing positive, peaceful settings like a beautiful beach or a peaceful meadow. This technique is also known as visualization or guided meditation
WHAT IS NEURO LINGUISTIC PROGRAMMING?
NLP tries to detect and modify unconscious biases or limitations of an individual’s map of the world. NLP is not hypnotherapy. Instead, it operates through the conscious use of language to bring about changes in someone’s thoughts and behavior.
WHAT IS HYPNOTHERAPY?
Hypnotherapy is a type of alternative medicine in which hypnosis is used to create a state of focused attention and increased suggestibility during which positive suggestions and guided imagery are used to help individuals deal with a variety of concerns and issues.
