Pablo Nicolás · ABR Mexico 2026 🇲🇽

Some visits begin with doubt —
and end with a new sense of calm.

Before this review, Pablo Nicolás’ mother wrote to us with a very honest concern:
“We see a lot of spasticity, especially in the arms and legs.
We don’t see improvement.”

After so many years of consistent work, saying this is not giving up.
It is paying attention — and asking for support.

Pablo Nicolás’ family has been with ABR since 2016.
They experienced the original in-person ABR format in Mexico, the transition to online work with Leonid Blyum, the introduction of vibratory tools, and since 2021 they have been a key part of keeping ABR traveling to Mexico for regular in-person sessions with Mauricio, once or twice a year.

In response to the family’s concern, Leonid carried out a deep case review, comparing videos across several years and looking at the long-term process. His conclusion was clear:
when the body becomes more stable — especially after spinal surgery that now keeps Nicolás safer and better aligned — movement can change its expression. Increased tone does not necessarily mean regression; it can be part of a deeper structural reorganization.

After this review, Nicolás had his in-person training session with Mauricio in Guadalajara.
And the message from his mother completely shifted:
“I think this was one of the best sessions since we started ABR.
The exercises were perfectly tailored to Nicolás. I am very happy.”

During the visit, Mauricio confirmed what Leonid had observed: better trunk and shoulder stability, more active and varied movements of the arms, head and legs, preserved joint mobility, increased muscle volume, and above all a Nicolás who was more attentive, more connected, more expressive and smiling.

Practical aspects of daily life — such as cervical support in the wheelchair — were also addressed, understanding that therapy does not stop at the session, but supports real life.

This case reminds us of something essential:
sometimes progress does not appear first as a new skill,
but as a deeper understanding of what is truly happening.

Thank you, Team Pablo Nicolás, for your honesty, consistency, and long-term trust.
We keep going. Step by step. 💚 🤍 ❤️

🇪🇸 Team Lea — Mother and Daughter, One Structural Journey

For years, Ana believed that the constant effort in her body was simply normal.

Living with instability, fatigue, and the feeling that everything had to be held together by tension, she never imagined it could feel different.

After months working with her own ABR program, she shared something that stayed with us:
“My whole life I thought everyone felt like this…
and now I’m realizing my body can actually hold itself.”

Moments like this are difficult to describe unless you experience them.
When structure begins to change, effort is no longer the only strategy the body has.

During our recent ABR visit in Spain, it was incredibly special to see both journeys evolving at the same time — mother and daughter, each with their own program, each progressing in their own way.

Team Lea has been working with ABR since 2023 and has attended every visit with Leonid. This long-term consistency is clearly visible:

• Better hand structure and clearer thumb articulation
• More defined separation between palm, wrist and forearm
• Improved torso stability
• Less global twisting patterns
• Wider, more controlled leg transitions

These are not dramatic changes.
They are deep structural changes — and they accumulate.

At the same time, Ana’s own progress reminds us of something we see again and again:

ABR is not only about cerebral palsy.
Structure is universal.

When the body begins to build real support — neck, ribs, pelvis, legs — people often discover sensations they never experienced before: less effort, more stability, more freedom to move.

Another highlight of this visit was having Mauricio working closely with the family during the course, helping translate Leonid’s evaluation into clear, practical work at home.
That continuity between evaluation, training, and daily routine is where long-term change truly happens.

We are very proud of both journeys — Lea’s and Ana’s — and excited to see what the next year will bring for this team.

Team Maximiliano | ABR Mexico | February 2026

Angélica had spent many years doing what all mothers who never give up do:
searching, trying, insisting.

Therapies since Max was just a few months old.
Surgeries. Constant rehabilitation.
And always the same feeling in the background: we do so much… but the spasticity always comes back.

From our very first contact, they were not asking for miracles.
They were asking for something much simpler: to understand what was happening in their son’s body.
Why, after so much effort, there was still tension, pain, fear about the future.

When Leonid prepared the case review, there was one sentence that changed everything for them:
“Max’s brain is there.
The problem is not in the brain.
The problem is in the body.”

Suddenly, many things started to make sense.
It wasn’t about forcing more.
It was about reorganizing better.

And then February arrived.
Mauricio spent almost four hours with them in Aguascalientes:
“Max is quite an autonomous young man: he moves independently, makes transitions, eats by himself, goes to the bathroom on his own.
But in our training we saw something very clear: much more strength in the arms than in the legs, difficulty in the lumbopelvic area, and a body that relies on the upper part because the lower part still cannot support in the same way.”

It wasn’t a therapy session. It was real training:
the mother learning all the exercises, touching, trying, understanding.
And Max even managed to do one of them himself with the microphone tool.

Angélica summed it up at the end of the day:
“It was a good day of work and learning.
We made a good connection with Mauricio… and that helps a lot.”

For a family that has been fighting for more than 20 years, that is not a small thing.
It means feeling accompanied.
Having answers.
Having direction.

And, for the first time in a long time,
not walking blindly anymore.

Team Francisco – ABR Mexico 2026 🇲🇽

Some stories remind us why we do ABR.

Francisco started ABR in 2021, recommended by a therapist. What was meant to be “trying something online” became a long-term journey of consistent work, a deeply involved family, and small changes that, over time, turned into real changes.

Today Francisco is 19 years old.
And what we see now is something we didn’t see a few years ago.

His mother, Dulce, shared:
“We are very happy to hear that he is now in a position to work on transitions that will help him become more independent, something that wasn’t possible in previous years.”

That is huge.

It doesn’t mean everything is perfect.
There are still challenges.
But for the first time, we are talking about real independence as a possibility, not just a distant idea.

From Leonid’s perspective, the key change is not only “doing more things”, but something deeper:
Francisco has gained more stability, more control, and a wider movement repertoire, which opens new possibilities for balance, posture, and communication to keep emerging over time.

The family sees it every day:
- Francisco is more agile.
- He has more strength in his trunk and legs.
- He communicates better.
- Sometimes he even tries to stand up.

And maybe the most honest sentence of all:
“He has a lot of strength, but now he is starting to know how to use it.”

After the in-person session with Mauricio, Dulce said:
“The empathy that Mauro has with Francisco and with the whole family makes the work kind and fluid.”

Leonid summarizes it in a very simple way:
it’s not about forcing functions, but about improving the structure so the body has more options. When that happens, functions emerge on their own.

And that is exactly what we are starting to see in Francisco today.

Francisco’s story is not about “before and after”.
It’s about year after year.

And today, for the first time, we look ahead with a very clear feeling:

We are in real change. And the future looks good. 💚 🤍 ❤️

ABR Mexico Visit 2026 – Francisco de Oro 🇲🇽

Francisco de Oro has been doing ABR since June 2022. They started with the online program and since 2023 they have been combining home work with annual in-person visits in Mexico, reinforcing the process together with Mauricio.

After several years of consistent work, Francisco is now much more comfortable in his own body, tolerating positions that used to be very difficult for him and staying seated for long periods. His family recently confirmed this during a long trip to Europe, where he managed extended sitting without the collapses that limited him before.

In the latest online review, Leonid highlighted a clear evolution:
“Last year we already saw improvements, but this year the new freedoms are on a completely different level.”
A transformation especially visible in breathing, trunk organization, and how his body is gradually reorganizing in relation to his scoliosis.

During the in-person visit in Mexico, Mauricio confirmed these changes:
“Today he looks more comfortable in his own body and tolerates positions that he couldn’t sustain before.”

From a functional and health perspective, Francisco shows very important improvements: freer arm movement, better head and gaze control, improved swallowing and chewing, and a much more stable regulation of his nervous system.

One of the most beautiful details of this stage is that he no longer wants to use his glasses. When he is asked if he sees well, he answers with a kiss.

His mother, Yasmin, summarizes it perfectly:
“Francisco tolerates his therapy very well. He is very happy and feels comfortable with the progress achieved.”

Consistency, structural work and time. Not fast changes, but deep and real ones.

Team Sergio · ABR Mexico · February 2026 🇲🇽

Team Sergio has been with us since 2020.
Since Sergio was just a little boy.

Six years of consistent work.
Six years of not giving up.
Six years looking for something very simple:
that their son could feel better in his own body.

This February we started their 6th year with ABR, with a new case review prepared by Leonid Blyum.
And one idea put everything into perspective:

The problem is not the brain.
The problem is in the body.

In how it breathes.
In how it organizes itself internally.
In how much tension it needs just to exist.

Then came the in-person training with Mauricio in Mexico.
Real hands-on work, applying the program directly with the family.

And something very clear appeared.

Sergio now tolerates position changes much better.
He can stay prone without discomfort.
His head is more stable, he follows with his eyes, he connects more with his environment.

As his mother wrote:
“Now he can pay more attention to everything he sees, as if internally he were better and could do other things instead of only managing his inner state.”

But if there is one change that summarizes everything, it is this:
his irritability has clearly decreased.

Sergio completed the entire session of exercises.
No crying. No breaks. No emotional overload.

That is not a technical detail.
That is a body that is starting to feel safe.

Six years later, the journey continues.
But they are no longer walking blindly.

And for a family, that changes everything.

🇪🇸 Team Any — 15 years of work and entering a new phase of structural reorganization

As our in-person ABR sessions continue in Spain, one of the first reviews was Any, a family that has been working with ABR since 2010, back in the early days of the towel-based exercises.

What makes this case special is the true team effort behind it — her parents, the trainers, and Any herself actively working on her own body.

As her mother beautifully summarized:
“Body transformation is not a final goal, but a continuous process of reorganization and adaptation.”

This session confirmed clear structural progress:
• more openness and function in the clavicle and shoulder blade area
• better organization in the thighs and leg stability
• changes in the sitting platform
• ongoing development in the buttocks, sacrum and coccyx

Leonid noted:
“This is by far the most chest activity we have ever seen.”

From Any’s perspective, the changes are felt especially in her sitting base and shoulder blades.

These reviews remind us that real progress is not a sudden jump —
it is built layer by layer, year after year.

Function changes when structure reorganizes.

Mónica y su hija Nicole (Argentina) llevan muchos años con ABR.
Empezaron en los inicios de ABR en Argentina y, desde 2020, siguen el programa online completo, cada una con su evaluación personalizada y con su propio plan de ejercicios.

Esta semana, Mónica nos dejó un mensaje que nos tocó profundamente:

“Lo que pensé como un ‘retroceso’ en la posición de cadera y piernas de Nicole… no era tal. Su cuerpo se está reacomodando.
La comparación de videos me permitió ver claramente las mejoras hasta noviembre y entender mejor el proceso.”

Y después, algo muy hermoso ocurrió:
Mónica se dio cuenta de que ella también necesitaba cuidarse.

“Llevaba meses con dolor de cuello, brazo, muñeca y zona lumbar… y no me atendía.
Al ver mi evaluación, desperté.
Me apliqué las estaciones vibratorias de manera intuitiva, sabiendo que con ABR no puedo cometer un error grave — y el alivio fue enorme.
Ahora quiero construir el soporte que Leonid me mostró y continuar con mi propio ABR.”

Sus palabras finales nos emocionaron:

“Gracias a Leonid, a Manuel, a quien traduce y a todos los que hacen posible esto.
Ver las evaluaciones me conmueve porque siempre nos muestran lo positivo, incluso cuando yo no puedo verlo por mí misma.
Y cuando lo comprendo… el corazón me da un vuelco.”

En ABR vemos cada vez más algo precioso:
familias enteras avanzando juntas, con hijos y padres siguiendo sus propios programas, cuidando su estructura y construyendo cambios desde dentro.

Gracias, Mónica, por tantos años de confianza y por permitirnos ser parte del camino de Nicole… y ahora también del tuyo.

Mónica and her daughter Nicole (Argentina) have been with ABR for many years — and since 2020, both follow the full online program with their own evaluations and personalized exercises.

This week, Mónica shared something beautiful:

“What I thought was a ‘regression’ in Nicole’s hips and legs… wasn’t. Her body is reorganizing.
The video comparison helped me see the real improvements and understand the process.”

And then came her own realization:

“I had months of neck, arm, wrist and lower-back pain… and ignored myself.
After my evaluation, I applied the vibration stations intuitively — and the relief was huge.
Now I’m building the support Leonid showed me and continuing with my own ABR.”

She ended with this:

“Thank you to Leonid, Manuel and the whole team.
The evaluations always show the positive — even when I cannot see it.
When I finally understand… my heart jumps.”

More and more families live ABR together:
children and parents, each with their own programs and progress.
