- 1997 to present     B.A.R.R.S.™  (Body-Anchor-Reaction-Release-System)

                                    Founded & Developed by Dr. Connie E. Jones.

 

A precision & results oriented approach to releasing trigger

                points in the human body. This is a systematic approach

in addressing what patients need in order to achieve a

well-balanced spine and body. It is an individualized form

of bodywork. This particular technique addresses the

entire body frame & spine, due to how the anchors

(aka deep tissue fixations)…are that of a calculable

& predictable sequence in how the body places them.

                My work and study is built upon the research by Janet

               Travell, M.D.who had discovered trigger points and the

                myofascial pain syndrome.

 

                What I have researched beyond her study in this field is the

                 unique characteristics of the trigger points based on the:

 

Type of trauma - Region of Body - Length of Time of

Infiltration- Trigger points that are formed with special

characteristics according to Disease Type & more

aspects that are too numerous to list.

 

- 1980     Legislatively opened The State of Florida to allow Sherman

College of Straight Chiropractic to sit for Chiropractic

Licensure. This legislative avenue took three years to

accomplish. It opened the door for other chiropractic

affiliations to be considered into Florida. A lobbyist

was employed at that time and we accomplished

this feat by being able to prove that the Chiropractic

Board at that time was involved with a restraint of

trade. Due to this legal triumph, the Sunshine

State Chiropractic Association was formed & founded

by Dr. Jones. She was able to bring unification with

the chiropractic profession, in our state, by joining

with one another in understanding what chiropractors

could agree upon. It was a premise that our entire

profession is now realizing, that we all can agree on the

Vertebral Subluxation and this is what allows our

profession to remain distinct and importantly separate

from the rest.
