My BSR story:

I was first introduced to BSR when I was about 8 years old. My mother suffered from frequent unbearable migraines. She discovered BSR and after three sessions her migraines went away. When I was in high school my grandparents went for BSR as well. I remember my grandfather walking into the session bent over and in an insane amount of pain. He walked out standing straighter and smiling with his pain drastically decreased. At a young age I was amazed at how BSR helped my family.

Fast forward a couple of years, I’m stuck in an admin job feeling trapped and wondering how I can change my life around and get back to fulfilling my passion of helping people. I rediscovered BSR, read up on it, read all the case studies, the history of BSR and what it is, I was hooked. I booked my sessions and applied to study almost straight away.

I had a couple of concerns, restless legs, tinnitus, spasms in my neck, pins and needles in my arms, not the mention my various injuries from my 4 scooter accidents. EVERY discomfort I had went away with BSR, I was pain free.

While studying BSR I was reminded why I fell in love with it, that we work with the body, not against it and we believe the body heals itself. I also learned that pain is not normal and that we don’t have to settle for it. We can be pain free, our bodies can heal, it just needs the nudge in the right direction, and that is what BSR does.

As I mentioned before, my passion is to help people, which is why I started my career as a BSR Practitioner by doing a two week outreach at a Special Needs School in Mthatha.

My husband and I moved to New Zealand in 2023 and to Cambridge early this year. We have fallen in love with the town cannot wait to grow our family and become part of the community.

If you or someone you love is living with any of these kinds of struggles, we would love to help!

BSR is a gentle, non-invasive technique that uses lines of nerve communication within the body to release built-up body tension and stress, which in turn leads to the symptoms shown here.

When we think we don't have time for ourselves is precisely the moment we need to make that time.

When we are so busy with work, or the demands of our family is high, or we have got so much to do – this sense of busy-ness is not good for our mental or physical wellbeing.

And, if you carry emotional stress for too long, it can become locked into your body. Our bodies can process and, in fact, welcome a certain amount of stress, but once the body cannot process the stress and is unable to release it, it can become locked in. When this happens, it is harder to process and release.

This is where Body Stress Release comes in. So, if you think you don't have time for BSR, think again.

Maybe the question you should be asking yourself is "How do I make time to prioritise my own wellbeing?"

When a health problem persists, in spite of a variety of treatments, one needs to consider whether the source of the condition has been overlooked. Dealing with effects will not resolve the situation if the cause is not addressed. If you suffer from any of the symptoms below, you may suffer from body stress:

* Pins and needles
* Numbness
* Spasms
* Mobility or joint issues
* Musculoskeletal pain
* Dizziness
* Discomfort
* Stiffness
* Pain
* An illness/medical condition
* Feeling continuously tired and listless
* Not feeling 100% well

How does BSR help with all of these conditions and more?

Our bodies were designed to heal, when we get a cut, we don’t have to think about healing, the body does so automatically, but when the cut is too deep, it may need stitches.

If we take that principle and look at stress, it works the same. Your body can handle a certain amount of stress effectively, but when it becomes too much, an overload, then we need outside help.

Just like the body was designed to heal, it was also designed to protect. If we have an overload of tension, the muscles in that area will tighten around it to splint the area and prevent us from causing more damage, this is what we refer to as locked in tension.

The locked in tension causes compression of the spinal nerves, which blocks communication between body and brain. This means the brain isn’t getting the message that there’s a problem and healing cannot take place.

We often get referred pains, for example if you have locked in tension in your neck you might get headaches or pins and needles down your arms.

In BSR we test for and locate the sites of locked in tension and release it with a gentle but precise impulse. Effectively what this does is it sends a message to the brain to say this is where the problem is, once the brain knows where it is, it can heal.

We do not heal, your body heals. We simply give it the right information so that healing can take place.

WHY YOU NEED BSR TO RELEASE BUILT-UP TENSION:
Your brain processes massive amounts of information from your sense organs, muscles, and chemical receptors. The system that filters these is the reticular activating system, and it is vital to our well-being, as we would be completely overwhelmed without it.
In the same way that we stop noticing the ticking of a clock after hearing it for a while, this system also has a dampening effect on the nerves, causing the body to cease taking instructions and allow tension to be stored. BSR creates the correct stimuli to help the brain register locked-in tension and initiate the body's healing process for the tension and its related symptoms.

✨LOWER BACK PAIN✨

Everyone suffers from lower back pain at some point of their lives. If the body has not been able to deal with the original site of irritation, then this lower back pain is likely to be constant or recur at regular intervals. It is stated that more work days are lost due to lower back pain than any other reason.

As the lower back muscles tighten over time, lower back pain may not be the only effect. Frequently the nerves that exit the lower back could get irritated, contributing to effects like sciatica, groin pain, heartburn, bladder infections, painful menstruation, etc.

The lower back pain is unlikely to settle until the origin of the problem is addressed, and this involves the easing of the protective muscle action around the lumbar spine with the help of a Body Stress Release practitioner.

Our : Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine.
BSR does not attempt to straighten abnormal curves in the spine, however the whole spine is tested for stored tension, whether above, below or within the deviation. It is then up to the body to use the improved nerve communication and muscle tone to resort normal posture.
9-year old *Clara suffered from Scoliosis. She had BSR over a period of ten weeks and the ‘S’ bend reduced, her neck pain ceased, the ridge of muscle which had developed on one side in her lower back flattened, and the right shoulder blade became level with the left one. She is now much happier and no longer feels self-conscious in summer clothes.
