New Testimonial

Testimonial


Wayne Nash's treatment came at a critical time. I was working through a pinched nerve in the neck. That doesn't sound like much unless you have had one. Imagine waking up in the middle of the night, in excruciating agony, moaning and groaning and writhing in bed at the pain. It was that bad. I am not one who takes pain killers, but had to for this one.

Chiropractic and all the meditation and new age "stuff" I tried was marginal at best.

Wayne's treatment and the protocol he gave me to undertake daily, gave me relief, ongoing improvement and a hopeful path for the future.

That is to say, I felt that the combination of treatment and my daily routine was actually releasing the deeply held tensions that caused the pinched nerve in the first place.

Now, when I do my daily Somatic Qigong, I get a release in the spine in about three to four of the exercises...and it feels somewhat like a chiropractic adjustment...without the chiropractor.

I recommend Wayne for anyone not getting the relief from pains they are after.

Letter from John D.

March 9, 2008

To Wayne Nash and Dr.Bradley Gage

In September of 2007, while on vacation in the Okanagan, I developed a severe pain in my neck that telescoped down my left arm all the way to my fingers. Thinking that I may be having a heart attack I went to emergency at a hospital in Oliver. After a number of tests it was determined that I was not having a heart attack, but the pain had something to do with my neck or shoulder. The only medication that I took at this time was Tylenol 3. After getting back to Victoria I immediately went to my physician and it was determined that I had a pinched nerve in my neck. My physician referred me to a specialist and had me go to Physiotherapy. He also prescribed for me a pain killer called GABAPENTIN. After taking a few of those I had to discontinue using them due to a hyper reaction I got from using them. After twelve sessions of physiotherapy, some of the pain was reduced, but not enough to allow me a good nights rest. At that point I received an appointment to see the specialist. He examined me and prescribed a pain killer called PREGABALIN, more commonly known as LYRICA. These seemed to help somewhat. He also referred me to another doctor. I finally got an appointment to see him early in January 2008, he recommended I get an injection of a steroid with an anti inflammatory. This did not give me great comfort to be injected with a steroid. As well the waiting period to receive this injection could be up to four or six months. This also did not give me great comfort to have to be suffering with the pain for that length of time.

Mid January a relative of mine suggested that I might see Wayne Nash, and that he might be able to help me. I made an appointment to see him and to see if he might be able to help me. Wayne teaches something called ACUSOMATICS, which is HANNA SOMATIC EDUCATION. Wayne is a certified practitioner in HSE. After discussing my situation with Wayne, he determined that he would be able to help me, but he also suggested that I see a Chiropractor. It was his professional opinion that the reason I have the pinched nerve is due to my poor posture and that a chiropractic adjustment might be in order. He recommended Dr. Bradley Gage at Back Fit. I took him up on his suggestion and made an appointment with Dr. Gage. After taking some X rays at Back Fit I found that I was very hunched over and getting worse.

After two one and a half hour sessions with Wayne Nash and one adjustment session with Dr. Gage, the pain was reduced to the point that no longer needed to use any painkillers. After five one and a half hour sessions with Wayne Nash and twelve adjustment session with Dr Gage, I am happy to say that the pain has gone away completely and the only thing I still occasionally feel a mild tingle in my arm.

At the present time I am 64 years old and during my younger years I stood 6 feet 2 inches tall. At the time the X Rays were taken my height was 5 feet 11 ½ inches tall. After twelve sessions with Dr Gage and the five session with Wayne Nash I am now 6 feet 1 ½ inches tall. A recovery of 2 inches. With continued treatments at Back Fit and HSE, I have the possibility of recovering my total height and have no more tingles in my arm.

I would like to thank both Wayne Nash and Dr Gage for getting me pain free and off all painkillers and helping me to live a normal and enjoyable life within a reasonable length of time.

John and Aida Happy Campers

Just called John and Aida. They are doing fine and telling all their friends about the work.

Their friends ask, 'What happened? You have completely changed!'

When they tell them what happened in only 6 sessions their friends insist it is 'impossible!'

Still, they remain pain-free, and are enjoying life and movement as never before. John said he has not felt so free in his body since he was a kid. YES! Exactly, the whole point of Somatics is to bring us back to the 'baby body'.

John can now rest his head on the floor 100% without pain. I will be posting his testimonial up here as soon as he emails it to me.

This work is about empowering you to live without therapy and without pain killers. Yes, it is possible. Don't let anyone tell you it is not.

Progress of John D

Well, in collaboration with a chiropractor who I referred John to (who focusses on education not just treatment) we have managed to grow John another 2 inches taller.

When on his back he is now able to rest his head on the floor. Not 100% comfortable there. But, it is better than 6 inches off the floor. Any lower and he was in excruciating pain. All pain is gone from the neck and arms and just a little tingling now and then.

John's wife Aida has been learning too and last session we seem to have gotten to the knee problem. Both are very smily these days and look like a young couple again.

They agree that the medical system has it all wrong. With this kind of EDUCATION we would need so much medicine.

Unfortunately, health would bankrupt our economy just like peace would. The pharmaceutical industry and the arms industry are much more interested in the shareholder's interests than health and world peace. Everything is connected and it begins with us.

John D.

John had his first session last week. I was a little concerned because he is 64 and stiff as a board and has had extreme neck pain since Sept 2007. I was therefore happy to hear that after the session he was pain free for the first time in months. He has a long way to go to keep him there. But, that was better than I had expected. Who says pain is something you have to live with for the rest of your life? So many people are resigned to this gloomy prognosis and it is completely unnecessary. I have seen so many people this last 15 years who had just about given up after seeing everyone who they thought might help. I am still amazed at how this simple method just works. It almost seems too good to be true even for me after 15 years of doing it. I always say, 'no, it can't be that easy to get out of pain!'. But, the body/soma is truly a miracle and has powers lying within it that we have not begun to grasp.

Of course not all people can completely resolve every health and pain issue with this work. But, 100% of the people I see benefit in SOME way. That is because 100% of the people I see have some degree of Sensory-Motor Amnesia. And this is NOT a medical problem. It is an issue revolving around forgetting about how to use your body. Who do you know who doesn't have THAT problem? Even teenagers are stiff. I certainly was. Much better now though at 52!

Elaine P.

Another amazing session. Elaine has been in pain for about 5 years due to 4 car accidents which induced whiplash. She had been quite athletic when younger and after one session tears were coming to her eyes when she realized that she was going to be able to rid her self of this pain forever and be able to be active again. She was dumbfounded and almost speechless. But, the miracle is in her own nervous system. I am not a healer. I am an educator. When I teach people how to control their bodies by learning to monitor what is happening in their 'soma' amazing things happen. I am amazed myself every time it happens. And after 15 years of doing this I am still surprised at how fast clients recover from debilitating and ongoing pain. But, what really gets me is why it has not caught on in the mainstream.

Isagenix Wellness

I am now going into my 2nd month of Isagenix. So far I have lost about 16 pounds and considerable inches. And that is even after I made a few batches of my homemade bread and pigged out on bread for a few days. I have NOT been strictly adhering to their plan. I just take the supplements and find that I am just eating a lot less over all as the supplements seem to satisfy my appetite throughout the day. I can eat whatever I want when I eat. This may slow down the weight loss but it is certainly not stopping it. I had mild detox headaches in the beginning but now they no longer occur.

It is important to not that the wellness packages are for performance, health and wellness. Weight loss is just a side effect of that.

So far so good.
