Andover Myofascial Release

I’m so grateful I found Sarah. I’ve dealt with long-term tension and pain for years and tried plenty of traditional massage therapy, but nothing really created lasting change. Her work using the John F. Barnes Myofascial Release approach has been completely different. Sarah is thoughtful, attentive, and really takes her time to understand what your body needs instead of just doing a routine. The sessions feel intentional and focused, and I’ve noticed real improvements in areas that used to feel chronically tight or painful. If you’ve tried other therapies without success, I strongly encourage you to see Sarah—this work is in a category of its own.

After suffering a sciatica flare up which landed me in the hospital for 2 nights, I decided to give Sarah a chance to see if she could help relieve some of the pain. My first appointment I was still utilizing 1 crutch to get around. After that initial visit, once I got home, I got out of my vehicle and I was shocked at how much better I felt. In fact, I was able to walk to the mailbox without the crutch, which was absolutely amazing. I still seek treatment from Sarah every 2-3 weeks for relief of muscle spasms and tightness. Thank you Sarah for the incredible work that you do!

Years of chronic stress and anxiety have caused me to struggle with widespread muscle tension and TMJ. As a mental health practitioner, I had read research on the benefits of myofascial release as beneficial to releasing the stored anxiety and trauma in the body which contributes to chronic muscle tension and other physical symptoms. Massages, stretching, and foam rolling were only minimally helpful to me. I have been coming to Sarah every other week for 2 months now and have felt a huge improvement in my jaw, neck, and shoulder pain and tension, and most importantly, I no longer feel like I’m in a chronic stress state. I highly recommend myofascial release as a treatment modality and Sarah as a practitioner. She is so obviously skilled and intuitive in the art and science of myofascial r

Several years ago, I was recommended by a friend to try MFR. I tried a few places and I didn’t feel any different. She suggested I try Sarah specifically, so I did and I have continued because I was actually feeling better and seeing improvement! I have many issues with my body stemming from my hips. I was born with hip dysplasia but was not properly diagnosed until my late 30s. I had surgery which was amazing, but they noted I would still have tightness in muscles and most likely will for life. Sarah has opened up not only my hip related areas but shoulders, neck and back. Most times I don’t even realize how much tension I have until I leave a session and can actually move! I have kept sessions fairly regularly over the years based on how I was feeling. Sarah works with you and gives you

Sara is amazing and so knowledgable! I always leave appointments with her feeling so much better. I would highly recommend!
