If the body is misaligned in any area, it will not function properly as it tries to cope with exercise demands while maintaining something resembling proper alignment, and that's where problems arise. More demands and the situation gets worse rather than better.

How do I know all this? My wife is a registered myofascial release therapist, and I was her test subject while she was being trained in MFR by the physical therapist who designed it, John Barnes. Got to know a lot more about my body than I thought I ever would. If you have a licensed MFR therapist in your area, I'd give them a call.
