What's New at the
Pain Relief Center?

  

I would like to thank everyone who has trusted me with their care. It is you who have made the Pain Relief Center a success, and I thank you for referring your friends.

 

I'm am doing a bit of traveling this year, taking my Foundations in Myofascial Release Seminars to various parts of the country. I will be heading to Pennsylvania, Missouri, New Mexico, Ohio, Texas, and right here in Rochester for various trainings. If you know of a therapist who may be interested in learning Myofascial Release, please pass this along. Teaching offers me an opportunity to share my work with other therapists and allows me to grow as well.

 

In case you are new to this newsletter, I now accept credit/debit cards as payment for services. This includes HSA and Flexible Spending Account cards. While check or cash will continue to be accepted, many people have asked for the addition of credit card processing. Please contact me if you have any questions.

 

Regards,

 

Walt

Research

and

Myofascial Release

  

 

Some readers may be aware of the Research page of my website. I have listed 250  research papers and related information. Much relates directly to Myofascial Release.  

 

The deleterious after effects of breast cancer surgery has been an issue close to my heart for many years and I have had the pleasure of being able to provide improved comfort and function with many women who have undergone mastectomy, reconstruction, and related surgeries. Here are a few articles from the website that pertain to this work:

 

Helping to Relieve the Pain of Post-Surgical Breast Cancer with Myofascial/Craniosacral Techniques

Early Rehabilitation Improves Extremity Function and Decreases Postoperative Complications in Cancer Patients Undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM): A Preliminary Report.

Myofascial release provides symptomatic relief from chest wall tenderness occasionally seen following lumpectomy and radiation in breast cancer patients.

Fibromyalgia is a common issue that brings people to the Pain Relief Center for treatment. Here is an article that may be of help:

 

 Effects of myofascial release techniques on pain, physical function, and postural stability in patients with fibromyalgia: a randomized controlled trial.


 Finally, plantar fasciitis, or similar problems with foot pain, can be helped with Myofascial Release treatment at the Pain Relief Center. Here is a research article that demonstrates its effectiveness:

 

Effectiveness of Myofascial Release in Treatment of Plantar Fasciitis: A RCT

The Myofascial Resource Store 

The Myofascial Resource Store has been totally revamped. Now you can find all of the self treatment tools in one place, as well as related reading and music. Ordering is safe and easy, as it is done through Amazon's network. Please let me know what you think! 

 

  New Website is Up and Running!
  
If you've not been to the updated Pain Relief Center Website, I encourage you to take a look. It has been totally redesigned and all archived newsletters and tips have been updated. You can also read through my blog, with many therapy and non-therapy related conversations.

Please take a look
