TREATMENT CENTERS—BOULDER, CO
The Boulder MFR Treatment Center is an outpatient, orthopedic, myofascial release physical therapy clinic in Boulder
Colorado founded by John's son Mark Barnes in 1993. The Boulder MFR Treatment Center is unlike most physical therapy
clinics where our focus is on Myofascial Release, Yoga, and Core Fitness. Our results are very high because our
approach is simple, effective, and helps our patients return home with the knowledge and skills to help themselves.
All of our therapists have been trained by Mark Barnes, DPT and John F. Barnes, PT.
In addition to our in-clinic treatment, patients continue their care on-line using our web-based software called BackLab.
BackLab is an innovative, clinical tool developed by Mark Barnes. With the BackLab app, you have online access to
your physical therapist, personal health coach, and exercise plan to help you get better and stay better from
debilitating pain.
