Introduction	As a physiatrist, I've been using Rolfing® for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders for the last 19 years. During such experience, I developed a new style of myofascial release, named Muscle Repositioning-MR. Particularly economic and effective, MR is characterized by integrating body segments during touch, condition associated with the occurence of various sorts of motor reflexes. Among them, tonic reflexes stand out as a possible mechanism underlying MR's efficacy; moreover, monitoring such reflex activity can potentially bring objectivity to this style of fascial manipulation.
