“I have been studying John F. Barnes MFR since 1989, and practicing it myself with my patients regularly since 1995, and in that time I have experienced treatment myself many, many times. The times that Tara has treated me are among the most healing that I have ever experienced. Of all of the practitioners who have treated me, including John Barnes, I would place Tara Carrington at the top of the list of masters in facilitating healing along with John F. Barnes himself. Just last year I fell and hit my head, and suffered a concussion, along with a herniated disc in my neck. Tara treated me afterwards, and under her guidance and skill, I was able to release much of the energy of the impact of my injury, and with her healing hands, I was able to reduce my neck pain and I felt so much more like myself. Her skill and her soft and loving energy will invite your immediate trust. I recommend her without hesitation.”

“My neck, shoulder and upper back pain, along with debilitating headaches, numbness, tingling and lack of mobility had become increasingly worse over the years. I had tried physical therapy, chiropractors, massage, prescription medication, neck pillows, fancy chairs… you name it. Just when I was about to research the idea of surgery, I found Tara and Myofascial Release. I knew after the first treatment that something felt profoundly different. The headache I walked in with was gone. I was finally able to turn my head freely, and I felt open and free to move again; as if she had loosened a straight jacket. Each treatment has been a wonderful experience bringing with it markedly improved physical and mental results. Thanks to Tara and Myofascial Release, I’m now able to experience my wonderfully hectic life without pain.”

“As a wellness enthusiast, I have been to many doctors, therapists and other practitioners. Few have been as genuine and authentic as Tara. As soon as I entered her office, I felt safe, welcomed and respected. This, combined with her expertise of myofascial work, makes her an exceptional healer. After one session, I had immediate pain reduction from a car accident injury that other modalities could not help. I also experienced improved posture as well as powerful emotional insights and releases. I am grateful for Tara and highly encourage all who are drawn to this work to experience for themselves her skilled healing hands.”
— Cylleria Johnson, Wellness Consultant

“Tara, You’ve taught me MFR moves everything softly...it has moved me physically, emotionally, and spiritually.I perceive myself now.My posture and alignment have improved dramatically from your MFR treatments and the exercises you’ve given me.My stride is much more comfortable and free from both your MFR and the techniques and form you’ve taught me.From MFR my sacrum no longer hurts as it did chronically.Our work goes way beyond the physical. The sessions are so deep that any part of my spirit that was not with me returns during our sessions...gently. A state of samadhi is achieved.Your thoughts on life have helped me integrate this soft gentle MFR approach in my emotions and with my relationships. Thank you”

“My body feels stronger and my mind is more focused after a session with Tara. The pain and stiffness that had been limiting me on the soccer field and at work is gone. I can unequivocally say that her treatment has been a success. As a trained Physical Therapist, at first I was a skeptic. She’s proven to me that this technique works.”

“My sessions with Tara have led to some great changes. I have full mobility and use of my shoulder after having surgery last year. I’m coping with stress much better now. I haven’t had any stress migraines since we started. I love that this treatment is not painful and is in a comfortable atmosphere.”
— Rachel, Student
“I am writing this with sincere gratitude to Tara and Myofacial Release Therapy. I had severe shooting pain in my right jaw with major headaches as well. This pain kept me at times from my job as well as thinking clearly. I had this pain for 4 years constantly, going to the dentist and having many dental procedures done thinking possibly it was my teeth. My Dr. sent me to a neurologist and I was told that I had Trigeminal Neuralgia. I was given medication which gave me terrible side effects and made me tired. I found Tara and after the first treatment knew this was the miracle that I had been searching for. I have had a few treatments now and feel great. I have my life back. Tara is very compassionate and has great knowledge and skill of Myofacial Release. I think she was born to do this and to help others achieve their best quality of life. Thank you Tara!”

“I have five ruptured discs in my neck. I was told the only way to help it was to have fusion surgery, but I didn’t want to do that. I just lived with the pain and thought I didn’t have any alternatives. When I found Tara and started to have Myofascial Release therapy, the pain became much more manageable. I also noticed that I was handling stress much better. I made it through this past year thanks to Tara.”

“As a long distance runner for over 25 years, I have many areas of chronic discomfort, particularly my lower back and legs. Also, my posture has been badly affected by running. I’ve been very pleased with the results of my sessions with Tara. I have markedly improved flexibility and posture, and my muscles soreness and back pain are decreasing. Her treatments have provided consistent and lasting results.”
— Paul, Physician Assistant
“ I’m a 5 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I do nosework for a living. Right before a big show, I started limping, in addition to having both my rear legs vibrating like violin strings when I stood still. My mom was very upset. She asked Tara if I could share her appointment (mom has been going to Tara for years, and thinks she’s amazing, but I digress). Tara worked on me the first week, and I wasn’t limping anymore. (I went on to win the show that following weekend, but again I digress). Over the next month, Tara worked on me each week and now my rear legs are stable and I can run around my yard without my mom staring at me every second to check that I am okay. The only down side is that I miss seeing Tara every week — she’s so nice and projects this soothing inner calm and gives the very best greetings of anyone except another corgi! Licks to you Tara.”
