About Me

Hi, I’m Joshua R. Christie, a 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher and certified hands-on Myofascial Release practitioner, specializing in the John F. Barnes approach, as taught directly in Sedona, Arizona.

My work blends the powerful, meditative discipline of yoga with the deeply restorative principles of Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR)—a holistic, hands-on healing method that gently releases restrictions in the fascia, the body’s connective tissue. Having trained extensively with John F. Barnes, the founder of this revolutionary modality, I am committed to offering therapeutic experiences that go far beyond surface-level wellness.

In both group settings and one-on-one treatments, my focus is on helping students and clients reconnect with their bodies, unwind chronic tension, and cultivate a grounded sense of inner spaciousness. Whether you’re a yoga practitioner seeking to deepen your awareness, or someone navigating pain, trauma, or burnout, I offer a safe and compassionate space to explore healing through movement and touch.

My retreats and private sessions are nervous system-informed, trauma-sensitive, and profoundly supportive—inviting you to release, soften, and return home to yourself.

As I continue to evolve this work, I’m exploring integrative approaches that honor the natural relationship between fascia and the energetic meridians recognized in Chinese Medicine. In the near future, I plan to collaborate with a licensed naturopath to offer acupuncture-based treatments alongside myofascial care—creating a deeply synergistic experience for healing and transformation.
