Absolute Beginners with NO Experience!
I once had a Great Friend, DeWayne, living in Minnesota, and now passed on to His Next Life. He was primarily a "Common Law Counselor.” (That’s a chat for another time!)
Except for rubbing his wife's shoulders or feet occasionally, he had NO experience with massage, bodywork, or yoga. Yet he drove all the way to Tallahassee, Florida from Minnesota to attend a three-day workshop I was teaching on DSL EdgeWork.
The Workshop was primarily attended by NMT Therapists who had been practicing for quite a while. I did NOT water anything down. Except when he had a question, which was not often, I would answer it in terms he could understand. And my teaching style is such that I break things down to The Basics as much as possible anyway.
I like to use layperson’s language a lot anyway because I think Therapists & Physicians forget that their Clients & Patients do not have the more technical jargon at hand. So the practitioners need to be reminded of what it takes to talk to a “normal” person and get their point across with minimal confusion or mystery.
So rather than talk about a “hyper-tense” muscle, I’ll say “tight” muscle! Instead of “herniated” disc, I’ll say “squished” disc.
Now, DeWayne was admittedly a Very Smart Man, and trusted me enough to follow my recommendations before trying to "improve on the product."
He went back home and a few days later he did one of my Signature 3-Hour, DSL Therapy Sessions (which I did almost exclusively for much of my Therapy Career) on a man, Michael, who was a High-End Personal Trainer & High-Weight Bodybuilder. He was also an ex-Military Paratrooper and had a LOT of musculoskeletal injuries.
Michael was amazed at the Results. He said his muscles were so freed up from tensions & stress by DeWayne’s work, that his weight lifting limits went WAY UP immediately. He said my work could make training weights out of what used to be World Records!
Maybe he was exaggerating, but Michael was a very serious guy. But you probably get the idea something pretty remarkable happened, even though DeWayne had NO Experience except what he learned at my workshop!
“Weak" versus "Pseudo-Weak"
BTW, experiences like with DeWayne and Michael proved to ME that a LOT of "pseudo-weakness" is really NOT a "fundamentally weak" muscle, but a muscle that was internally restricted by its own excessive and "stuck” tensions & stress. Because Michael could move more weight than most people. And as soon as his muscles relaxed, his strength immediately returned.
And DeWayne & Michael were BOTH amazed they could get such results with Dwayne only having taken ONE 3-Day training program!
And they were NOT the Only Beginners who got such great results, either!
In the mid-1990s, when I was living in Buckhead, outside of and to the North of Atlanta, Georgia, one of my Good Friends, Joe, flew in from Kansas with his son. They took my workshop there and they did very well too.
Joe did have an advantage, though, because I had already provided some therapy for him, and he got a HUGE positive result in the Very First Session. No one else had been able to help him.
He came to my workshop mostly so he could provide therapy for his Family.
So Please Get In Touch with me. We can talk, and IF I think I can help you, we will figure something out for you.
And BTW, as my Professional Education & Mentoring Program fills up, I will have less time available. So if you are interested & motivated, please get in touch before I get too busy. Because when the program fills up, I will probably be too busy to help you out.
