Body Aware Therapy, located in Prince Frederick, MD, offers gentle therapeutic massage techniques using the John Barnes Myofascial Release Approach. With a focus on decreasing pain, tightness, and improving flexibility, function, and overall well-being, their licensed massage therapist, Kim Edwards, specializes in this approach and has firsthand experience with its benefits. Unlike traditional massage, physical therapy, and chiropractic methods, the techniques used at Body Aware Therapy were developed by John F. Barnes and have been found to be more effective and produce longer-lasting changes through the piezoelectric effect.
By sinking into the tissues and using a gentle sustained stretch, Body Aware Therapy targets the liquid crystalline structure of fascia that surrounds muscles, bones, nerves, and organs. Trauma, surgery, and inflammation can create restrictions in the fascia, leading to pain and limited mobility. With the use of myofascial release techniques and self-treatment at home, Body Aware Therapy aims to relieve pressure on pain-sensitive structures and help clients achieve a better state of well-being.
