The Dynamic Fascial ResponseTM (DFR) Approach
What is DFR?
If what you have in your practitioner’s toolbox is not resolving your client’s pain, it may be because the pain is being held in the fascia.
Fascial restrictions can happen via a physical and even emotional impact. Dynamic Fascial Response™ is a valuable tool and the best investment for a successful massage practice with happy clients and inspired practitioners.
Dynamic Fascial Response™ is an approach to bodywork developed by Chula Gemignani. After 20 years of struggling with her own chronic pain and working with her clients, Chula’s understanding of physiology deepened and she discovered some essential keys to unlock the body’s holding patterns and create structural stability.
DFR™ is an integrative approach which blends effective bodywork, fascial unwinding and relaxing massage. DFR™ sessions relieve pain, open range of motion, create more flexibility, alignment and postural improvement. This approach helps to create the space you need to be fully present for the life you love.

"Chula’s class gave me a well rounded understanding of prenatal massage and postnatal care. Her teaching style is organized, focused, and kind. She will wait until every last person is on the same page before moving on. I will continue to take every class she offers and encourage fellow body workers to do the same!"
