The priority is now.

(Yes, I am that short!)

Not what you have done in the past, titles, awards, accolades, publications, etc.

Sure, this adds extra kudos and proof your work has had success. But what matters is now.

Here's me winning European championships in 2012.

To my recollection, at least 70% of the division had at least a international title to their name previously or current- European champion, world champion, world cup winner or international open winner.

Two gents next to me? Both have multiple world and European titles to their name.

Past achievements did not matter. Our performance on the day was the only metric used.

No different with getting better.

Recent case with a new client who like many others, has seen many clinicians and shoulder specialists, with no success Including a few, what I call “big hitters”.

(The ones with top tier sports team and athletes to their name. Working with royal families and the wealthy.)

Sure, the shoulder was painful and lacked stability. They struggled to hold their arm out in front of them. Had to use the other arm to support the reaching arm.

Even reaching out to the top shelf of the fridge caused pain and shakiness. And that’s not even having anything in their hand!

After a comprehensive assessment, the cause?

Shoulder restriction and compression was to create stability and locking everything down.

All for a few old hockey injuries to the head- concussions, whiplash, vision system in chaos.

When she moves her eyes into a specific position? All the weakness cancels out.

Back to the front and other positions? Weakness returns.

Double checked with the fridge reach and as long as she looks in that particular direction, everything is fine.

She’s all booked in and due to commence in a few weeks with a view to getting her life back, more headspace and to get off the various painkillers.

When the eyes cannot function well and you’ve also had a hefty rock to the head?

Neck and shoulders will doubly lock down to create stability to keep your vision as level as it can.

Doesn’t care if it screws up your shoulder in the process.

Why did the big hitters consultants and specialists miss this?

Who knows. But with such vast accolades and titles, the pressure is there and is a fine line.

Having a framework and knowing what questions to ask made finding the cause straightforward.

Real time testing and data tracking showed the client not only data of the level of changes possible, but motivation that their issues can be solved and not having to live with the issue.

Want to know what changes are possible for you?

Coffee and massage.

Not that different from each other in their purpose.

Both just give you a temporary boost

Whilst not addressing the actual cause.

Now I’m not anti-coffee before the hardcore coffee crew come rioting, but there has to be a purpose.

If you solve the cause of the energy slumping and tiredness, then the coffee can become a pleasant, leisurely drink. An option.

Rather than being the first you grab upon waking and relying on the caffeine boost every few hours.

Not that different with massage either. Other than for a relaxing pamper, very rarely does this ever solve the problem.

Cos if it did solve the problem? You wouldn't have to keep going back weekly for maintenance.

This came from a chat with my electrician client this week.

For his work, maintenance (unless for listed buildings or just routine yearly check) is a bad idea. If he's getting called out weekly or even monthly to the same site for the same problems?

Usually means he hasn't done his job correctly. If the work was super complex? He would have got more employees on the job or referred out if specialist skills required.

Sure some may say getting a massage is enjoyment and 'me' time. But is it really when you're getting stretched beyond realms of reality and your soul pummelled out of you,

With bruising and soreness for a few days?

Plus, I'm sure there's much better ways to have time for self care that doesn't involve the pain.

Like doing the activities you actually want to do, places you want to be with those you want to be with.

When you get down to the cause, there's no need to maintain.

Job gets done.

Sick of the constant maintenance and having to work to keep the same level of progress and want to get the issue sorted?

Pop over a DM and let's chat.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he came in.

Being in the service sector, especially in the trades puts the body under immense pressure.

Long hours.

Heavy, repetitive lifting.

The British weather doesn’t help.

Today was a review day a year after discharge for a past Fast Track client.

All part of his aftercare.

I love these sessions as I get to catch up with them and if there are any grumbles/ twinges, they get resolved. If there are no issues? They get the reassurance and peace of mind that all is good.

Cos far too many times do you get discharged too soon and when the problem returns (because the actual cause hasn’t been addressed) you worry about what to do:

Do you return to the same clinic

Do you leave it for a few weeks and then call up

The biggest one?

Worrying about the cost. You’ve already paid a lot and it’s leaving a bad taste in your mouth because they haven’t sorted the problem out.

This 1 year review is all part of their aftercare and all booked in 6-8 weeks ahead, with some flexibility built in. For the Fast Track clients, this is at no extra cost.

Their lower back tightness was simply a quick tune up of their walking pattern and after 3 repetitions, the tightness disappeared. Update the timing of the movement and all is good.

To nip things in the bud and make sure their body was still operating at its optimal level.

Want the peace of mind that even a year later I still have your back?

Want a bowl with your cup of tea?

Not anymore for my client.

For the past 15 months, due to the loss of sensation, numbness and confidence with her hands from the peripheral neuropathy, my client was having to carry her drinks in a bowl.

Easier to hold and to catch spills as the neuropathy also affected her feet and balance.

Up until the condition hit, she was fiercely independent and with a background in corporate, she loves time frames. When she was told of the vagueness of recovery from the neuropathy by professionals, this didn’t sit well with her.

Could range from a few months to never getting better.

We both knew there might be a limit to what would be possible and she just wanted a bit more freedom and not feel like she’s in prison 24/7.

Within 4 sessions, she’s now able to carry a drink in each hand and walk to the living room whilst having a chat like she used to.

Ditching the need for a bowl.

Totally surpassing expectations.

As well as regaining her love of dancing again and not needing a walking stick.

We monitored this for a few more weeks for reassurance and there was no regression.

No drugs/ medication/ creams.

No needles.

No deep bruising level of massages.

No hoping, praying and waiting.

When you have a comprehensive assessment framework to guide the treatments? Results like this happen.

She can now go back to the life she dreamed of…

Spending time with her family and grandchildren.

Travelling.

Shopping.

Pottering around the home.

She has her life back.

On the surface this shouldn’t make sense. Probably thinking AI crafted the post.

Here is a past client who had a very similar presentation to the previous post I put up, with pain down half her body.

This case was from around 2018 and since then, besides just minor, general life knocks, bumps?

She has remained pain free. The debilitating, 24/7 pain and needing 5 different back up plans every day depending on the pain levels…gone.

Annie had pain down one side of her body for over 25 years. Seen practically everyone and they all focused on the symptoms.

Neck
Shoulders
Upper back
Lower back
Hips
Knees

We mapped out her case to find a significant injury from being hit by a car as a teenager that was the main cause.

As she saw the car approaching, her body locked in the tightness to brace for the impact.

Makes sense when you have a car coming at you.

Eye work
Emotional trauma work to unpack the emotions from the event.
Movement integration to get everything working in the correct order and timing again and get the body feeling safe.

The massages, stretches and taping were fine, but didn’t make a dent to the progress as this missed out key aspects. Mainly from her history.

No different to building a house.

Getting the foundations, walls, roof, windows and doors completed should be the first priorit instead of deciding what colour carpets, where the TV goes, how big the bathroom mirror should be, etc.

“Did you tell Venard about that time you got knocked over by a car?”

Client’s other half asked them after we had our call.

“CRAP!”

*Client quickly fires over a message with the above information prior to our session*

Might have pushed results back a session or two,

But would’ve eventually shown itself up.

Certain areas are fairly hot in my books that I always ask and screen for.

When you’ve had pain for over a long period of time and seemingly random

In multiple areas?

It’s extremely rare that each problem area has its own individual cause.

Usually a few (maybe more in complex cases) areas that are mega important that got rocked and kick started the whole compensation.

Cos if you have knee pain (for example) but have never had any knocks, falls, bumps, etc to it?

Why the hell would it be hurting then?

If you slipped and bashed your knee, that would make more sense to having knee pain.

With this particular client, like many I work with, had seen numerous clinicians with minimal success.

Just a 5-10 minute chat about the current symptoms and then dived right in.

Thinking that if they pressed harder, used stronger tape, manipulate joints more, stretched and bent you into a pretzel and got you into that pain cave to block it out, etc, they’d be hitting the mark.

Thing was, the client never really had any injuries to all the areas they were suffering the pain from.

All on one side of their body

(sounds scary, but is actually quite common presentation and not as bad as made out to be)

For one half of the body to be affected, it’s a massive area to shut down and very precise as there was no compensation with the other side of the body at all.

Turns out to be concussion, unconsciousness with a dash of whiplash from being knocked over by a car.

Over 10 years ago.

Head injuries is one area I always ask and check for, regardless how long ago it’s been.

Neck jacks up to stabilise the head

Upper back and shoulder tightens up as well to help out with the neck.

A tonne of areas chip in to help out, even though it’s not even their job.

There were a few more players to the mix around the hip where the impact was, but a lot was all geared to the head.

Cos if I used similar approaches that their previous clinicians had used?

Oh boy! I’d be another name on that list.

There will always be a cause and may not be obvious.

Simply how far back and the depth are they willing to go to uncover it.

With my client, just treating the head already cleared up 70% of their issues.

Not out the woods yet, but the end goal in clear view.

At least 10 years of compensations is a hefty amount to process and catch up.

A common and easily overlooked cause of upper back pain. Includes text neck and poor posture.

When you struggle to see close and do near work (anything within a metre in front of you), your body will flex forwards more to bring you closer to the object you are looking at:

Phones and screens

Making notes

Laptop

Reading a book

For my client, standing and looking down at their phone to respond to messages any longer than a few minutes would kick off a tight, burning sensation down their upper back. Scans came back all fine. Massage, strength work and targeted hands on work to the area only gave temporary improvements.

Their previous therapist diagnosed them with ‘upper cross syndrome’ and ‘text neck’ and gave them exercises. Which gave mild improvement, but it’s slow and you have to constantly keep on top of the work. Soon becomes a chore.

Comes down to the fact that the vision system is higher up in importance for the body than muscles and as soon as you do any near vision work, it overrides the upper back work.

How was this solved for my client?

Specific eye work to improve their focussing and near 3D vision.

This allowed both eyes to work together as a synchronised unit to send clear information to the brain.

Coupled with some spinal mechanics to repattern the movements of the spine and to also rediscover and acknowledge the new, free space available…

Their upper back tension and burning sensation from the overwork and stress cleared up.

Repeatedly testing out by getting them to stand whilst checking and responding to emails (like you would do when in a supermarket queue!) for 15 to 20 minutes, no symptoms.

That’s the bulk and main concern sorted. Now just let it settle in, fine tune to make sure everything is rounded off and they have full confidence for what they want to do day to day.

As a bonus, because their upper back can flex and extend and not stuck hunched forwards anymore… they’re also 3 inches taller!

Want to solve that annoying upper back pain, whilst getting more mobility and taller without chores of exercises?

From what he was told, he thought this would be a life sentence.

Fibromyalgia case: One major aspect that they forgot to check.

He knew this was just to tick a box so they can say he has a diagnosis and can get rid of him as they had run out of ideas.

Pain in the upper and lower back, shoulders and knees.

With chronic fatigue, there are multiple aspects at play and all equally crucial. From nutritional to hormonal, lifestyle, etc.

However, the body doesn’t get chronic fatigue if everything is working well.

He was following the advice of all the other specialists he’s been working with-
Nutrition.
Lifestyle stress minimised.
Counselling, hypnotherapy and various mental health work.
As a long shot, even energy cleansing retreats.

The above gave him a better baseline of functioning and some improvement, but the pain and fatigue was still there.

His joints were all locked in compression. Compressed joints create stability. Joints are meant to open and close. When they are stuck in either state, that is when issues occur.

Muscles were all tight, weak, tender and painful. In this case, both weakness and tightness was a result of a highly overactive nervous system that was constantly sending ‘Go! Go! Go!’ signals to the muscles and since the nervous system controls the muscle, they are tight.

Yet the muscles were physically exhausted. Leading to the weakness.

The muscles were also not working in the right sequence.

So not only was his body in full time ‘ON’ state, his muscles were disorganised.

No wonder he’s hit chronic fatigue.

A longer session was scheduled to reflect the complexity of this case.

Traced the issue back to a few car accidents 15 to 18 years ago. Resulting in whiplash and concussions. Even though they were lucky to walk away, when the car has rolled and gone over the central reservation, major compensation kicks in.

This was when the penny dropped for him as before these accidents?

He was fine.

Even just in the assessment session he was able to touch his toes, felt lighter and springier when walking, being able to twist round reaching for the seat belt positions, sit cross legged comfortably.

The depth and precision of assessment is key.

He now knows there’s a solution and this was the missing aspect for him.

All that’s left now is to make these into a long lasting change for him and his body.

Would you buy a house without viewing it?

Would you buy a car without test driving it?

Would you buy a new TV without checking it out?

You could. But that leaves a lot to hope and a ‘hunch’.

Then why embark on a treatment plan without knowing what type of outcome is possible.

End of the day it’s your health and future.

With the projected outcome you get a view of the level of change possible if those causes were to be treated. . .

In real time.

You get to know now. Rather than later.

Not just feeling better, but where suitable? You can load up and see the area working better in real time.

The projected outcome also shows you that your clinician has taken the time to make sure everything has been accounted for and the depth to ensure you get the best result in the fastest time possible.

This allows better communication between the clinician and the client.

Once you are happy with the plan of approach and the level of outcome. You sign it off and treatment booked in.

You know what steps are involved and where you are in the process. Eliminating the need of guessing or hoping.

Or the classic ‘lets see how this goes’.

Giving you confidence with your result.

A constant pain for 7 years, despite all the podiatry reviews, specialist feet clinics.

Hindsight was at least £6700.00.

At £80 per visit, per month, for the past 7 years. All adds up.

The improvements were short term and this didn’t include custom made insoles from the USA.

Fed up of wasting money every month with no results to show for this, she reached out to see what can be done after a friend's recommendation.

Mapped out her symptoms and history.

Old hysterectomy scars were the top level cause alongside C-sections from 30 years ago.

Core is where your centre of mass is. If this is unhappy and cannot stabilise, everything else has to work harder to do simple tasks.

Over the years her body has been compensating to work around to manage this trauma. Even when fully healed. Calling in other muscles in the area to help out and the hip joints compressing to create stability for her.

These muscles and joints eventually got tired as they were essentially working double overtime without pay!

Passing the buck on and eventually getting to her feet where they have no choice but to work as after the feet and toes? There’s nowhere else to go.

Precise scar work got her hip and leg muscles calmed down and working normally again. Hip joint decompressing and the pain in the feet decreased.

She can now stand confidently without wobbling and losing her balance.

This was all sorted within the first 2 sessions. More progress and faster than she thought possible. All that’s left now over the next couple of sessions is to repattern and educate her body her optimal walking pattern.

She can now see her social life, plans and adventures coming back on her radar and is looking forward to getting her life back.

Pain free and his life back in less than 2 days after suffering with chronic lower back pain for the past 8 years…plus ZERO maintenance sessions or exercises to do.

A recent testimonial from my client, Ben, who I worked with a few years ago to solve his constant lower back pain.

He runs a landscaping business building award winning, luxury pools.

Ben invested in his health and future and travelled up from the south coast UK for a 2 day fast track clinic to solve his pain fully.

It’s a myth that just because you have had or have chronic pain, that you need constant, regular maintenance work to keep things in check.

He mentioned in one of the videos we did that previously he was getting treatment every 4-6 weeks. At an average of £50/ session, every 4 weeks for 8 years came up to £4800.00…yet he wasn’t actually any better.

Not to mention loss of business time travelling to and from the sessions, loss of work time when he struggles to get out of bed and the costs of delays to projects.

Easily in the region of at least 5 figures.

In the assessment phase, we spent a solid 2 hours to map out Ben’s full history, to make sure everything had been accounted for as likely what he had experienced before was just a 10-15 minute skim through and vital information had been missed.

Eye coordination, 3D vision and bumps to the head were a few of the big players we found and treated on the first day. Not only did his back pain cleared up, but a nagging shoulder and feet pain also cleared up!

Second day we just spent pressure testing the work, lifting, moving, trying to break the treatment and also regain his confidence back again.

He’s still pain free a few years later, despite the physical nature of his work.

Getting better and solving pain doesn’t have to be long winded or drip fed results.

Want results like Ben?

Even the smallest stones need turning over.

My client had been suffering with pain at the base of his spine, just above the hips for over 20 years.

He had already exhausted the NHS and local clinics as they were only able to deliver short term improvements that needed multiple visits each week to keep on top of progress, he even spoke to a consultant thinking that surgery would be the answer.

Expecting the scans to pick up something significant…

All that was found was general wear and tear and surgery was not suitable. Reassuring but also frustrating as this created more questions as this didn’t match up with his pain.

He reached out for a chat after a friend pointed in this direction after someone they knew had worked with me.

We went through his history with a fine comb. Even going back to childhood. Since just focusing on the symptoms and recent history, what everyone else was doing was fruitless.

As a child, he suffered a nasty fall and cut his head, requiring stitches. His body compensated hard to work around to cope with the concussion, knocks to the eye coordination throwing his awareness, 3d vision and balance off, compression of the neck and shoulders to create stability to keep his head more balanced.

Add in the scar creating tension along the connective tissue network down the rear side of his body, his body’s capacity to function ‘bucket’ was pretty much full. As the body works as a team, any issue is no different to that colleague who is always off the Monday after their sports team played on the weekend as they constantly have the dodgy post match kebab!

You end up doing your work as well as theirs!

Clear up the concussion, joints of the skull, getting the eyes working normally again got him 70% of the improvements. Specific scar release combined simultaneously with neuro repatterning of the scar sorted out the rest.

Areas that general massage and stretches wouldn't have even got close to.

What was a 20 year old pain that he thought couldn’t be solved and having to live with for the rest of his life…

Were simply ‘small stones’ from old injuries and over time his body created many layers to work around and keep him functioning.

All that’s left now is just a few reassurance sessions over the next few weeks whilst he regains confidence and his body catches up with current lifestyle and demand.

No daily exercises to do.

Just play.

Imagine being told to just play and not having to carve out 10 to 15 minutes (or more in some cases) for daily exercises.

When you have a flexible and comprehensive assessment framework, the causes can be located, treated easily and quickly with pretty much no maintenance needed.
