We have seen video testimonials of extreme cases submitted by some of the 100,000+ therapists John has trained over the decades and their results have been nothing less than life-changing for their patients, saving them from additional surgeries and medications.
One 15 year old patient received a prognosis of life in a wheelchair when traditional western medicine misdiagnosed her extreme fascial restrictions for multiple sclerosis. Fortunately, instead of accepting that prognosis, her parents found a John Barnes- trained therapist who worked with their daughter's fascial restrictions and today she moves freely and fluidly like any other kid her age, quite the opposite of being wheelchair-bound for life.
Another success story
Another woman (a massage therapist) spoke about how her physician husband had back surgery and was still in excruciating pain afterward and never seemed to recover. Even after three additional surgeries he was still in so much pain and although he had returned to work, he couldn't do many of the activities he previously enjoyed, including fun with their kids. The wife discovered the John Barnes MFR classes in Sedona, AZ, and convinced her husband she had found the therapy they had been looking for. While the wife attended her classes, her husband received MFR treatment at "Therapy On the Rocks," which is the John Barnes treatment center in Sedona.
When they first showed up in Sedona, the husband was having to use a wheelchair, a walker and a cane to ambulate on a daily basis. After his third MFR treatment, he climbed all the way to the top of Cathedral Rock in Sedona.
Seeing Results With Our Clients
Our clients also have excitedly told us of positive changes they've experienced throughout their bodies. These changes have ranged from decreased / elimination of pain, increased flexibility and even the simplicity of being able to move their body where before they felt like they had an invisible straight jacket under their skin preventing them from performing simple movements effortlessly.
Better yet, we have felt the incredible results of John’s approach throughout my own body as we, too, receive regular MFR treatments. We walk the talk!

Thanks so much for introducing Myofacial release into my rehabilitation program. I am definitely experiencing longer lasting results that are reducing the tightness and pain in my hamstrings, glutes and calves due to years of running, biking and construction work. The Myofacial release procedure has almost eliminated the bicep tendinosis in my right arm and the discomfort in the rotator cuff due to 45 years of kayaking and life in general. The combination of MFR therapy and my physical therapy exercises are expediting the healing process. The weekly sessions are relaxing and calming and hopefully I can start kayaking again this season with your help. Thanks, again.

Sharlene is a master. She has helped me maintain and improve my body, so that I can be an “old” lady athlete at 65 and ride beautiful dressage horses. My body has never been easier or straighter because of the work Sharlene does. She has helped my shoulder after two collar bone surgeries regain full mobility. I had breast cancer and 29 days of radiation. That will usually harden the tissue and yet, when I have a mammography every technician says you do not feel like you have had radiation. She has helped straighten the rotation in my pelvis. She has opened my feet and I cannot say enough. Trust Sharlene and you will see amazing results to heal your body over time.

After a slip and fall and two years spent in constant tailbone, back and hip pain, I constantly lived my life going from doctor to specialist to surgeon, with no answers other than "here's another prescription for pain" and 'I guess if you want we can cut your coccyx (tailbone) out.'
MRI's, X-rays and prescriptions didn't help this western medicine approach. In fact, they became numb to my pain issues.
This led me to Sharlene and her practice of facial release. I was completely skittish and skeptical to do one more thing but I'm glad I did. After seeing her for a few sessions, I can sit and drive and exercise effectively.
And it's lasting. It's real.
My lack of knowledge, as well as my fears, were addressed. But the thing is, her healing hands and the process behind them, work. They are actually effective where two years of searching for pain relief and healing didn't help. Her instincts and her method is effective and I can't recommend her highly enough.
