Little Girl with Ear Infections (both ear) (2005). BODM: Neurofascial Process, Body Wisdom, Ear Infections, Failure to Thrive, CenterIMT Bloomfield.
"Kylie feels great....the Neurofascial Process did work but must have needed a little time after she woke up. I'm amazed and very happy! The work you guys do is incredible? I tell my friends and family the success stories and they think I'm crazy and.... I know they don't believe me. My pediatrician tries to understand but I know deep down she doesn't think I am doing the right thing. To me it was important to know Kylie had an ear infection and then treat it through your advice....only if I could have taken her back 2 hours later..then what would they have said?"

"Wow!!! Body Wisdom is so incredible. I read it last night and feel so privileged to have received so much wisdom and insight. It's written with such clarity and feels so "right"...I couldn't put it down. I feel like I have such a wonderful set of tools to use on myself, Phil and Emily...and to teach them to do it themselves (Sue Leger had introduced us to some protocols for Emily). This takes it so much further. I love how simple, yet profound that the work is." - a Process Acupressure Instructor
"Body Wisdom is such an honor to read and witness such an incredible journey. Thank you for writing it and thank you for gifting it to me. I love it!!" - a Process Acupressure Instructor

"Just a brief note to give you a progress report. I have within the last week started to do the NFP in earnest, about an hour a day when I watch TV, or when I am in the movies. My PSA is stable, BP is down 120-130, and I am considering taking a BP pill every other day. Cholesterol has dropped 30 points, and triglyceries and HDL and HDL also. My goal is to discontinue all meds if possible. We enjoyed our visit. Best regards to all."

"My husband and I adopted our son, J. on 2/13/02 when he was 2 days old. Our time with him has been the most rewarding, joyful thing we have ever done and our friends constantly ask "How did you get such a happy baby?" "He's sleeping through the night already?" "You mean he doesn't cry for hours at a time?" I give the same answer each time - it's the neurofascial processing.!!
When Joey began crying for no known reason I was told it was colic. Lucky for me as a physical therapist who has taken courses with Dialogues in Contemporary Rehabilitation (DCR), I could assess my son and was baffled when I could find no signs of it. My instinct told me it sounded like he was angry but could that be possible?? In desperation I mapped him and discovered still space. This indicates emotional issues are on the surface ready to come out and by using a simple technique called neurofascial process it changed his intensity and frequency of crying and gave me back my loving, cuddly baby. The great thing is that it is a simple process of placing your hands over designated areas for 10-20 minutes at a time and it can be done at home by the parents!
My son has taught me a lot since that day. When he feels safe and especially at night he can feel the need to let go of some emotional baggage. By processing the neurofascial centers to each other, I was able to help him purge some of the abandonment, anger, grief/loss and other issues that our social worker told me to expect to come a bit later. It allowed me to communicate on a deeper level with my son and let him know that I understood his feelings. By us being there for him, our loving bond was elevated to a level I did not think possible for a newborn.
Examples in behavior shifts:
The angry crying before feedings and for no reason disappeared.
J. would sometimes take 2 ounces then stop, refuse the bottle and scream - after processing arms for control this has virtually stopped and he eats 4-6 ounces. consistently now.
J. would frequently stop eating and cry continuously if a woman friend picked him up and especially if I left for a few hours (Joey left the hospital with a social worker who was a strange woman to him and never saw his birth mom again . After processing heart for abandonment Joey is doing fine with me being gone 6-7 hours 3 days a week with a babysitter.
After seeing the changes in our baby, We felt it important to reach out to mothers and fathers who were suffering with the frustration of not being able to quiet their crying child and receiving little help from books, doctors or friends. It is so important to listen to your child from the very beginning and neurofascial processing helps open the lines of communication!" - J. H., Physical Therapist and Mom
"D.S. has improved so much since the treatment for his injury (brain damage secondary to hernia surgery). It's hard to say what or why specifically because we have pursued many types of treatments. Those include: traditional therapy (OT, PT, SP); acupuncture; massage therapy; horse therapy; dolphin therapy; a bit of cranial sacral therapy; hydrotherapy; and most importantly, Neurofascial Process therapy here at CenterIMT." - Parents.
