Feeling that sense of relax pouring down through your jaw. Relax the tongue.

Repetitive stress injuries suck. Magnus has been a software developer for decades. He is also a very active person in the gym. Tennis elbow has been causing him a lot of pain these past several months and I was able to offer him some relief, exercises, and share information with him for self-care when he returned to Malmo, Sweden.

After a lifetime of shoulder and neck pain, I was able to give Courtney full range of motion again after one session. Five months later she was still pain-free and agreed to give me a video testimonial.

Guided Imagery - Finding presence. Settling into now at this moment. Not needing to change anything, make it different. Just be the observer right now. Gently allow yourself to soften.

Noticing that both power and ease can happen at the same time.
