As a Hanna Somatic Educator this comes as no shock since many physical educators

and doctors here in the US are not aware of the simple process of a

pandiculation where we change our muscles using the brain's cortex.

Mel Siff, author of Facts and Fallacies of Fitness noted that central nervous

system programming is far more important than strength training and aerobics.

And how many people are aware of this?

As I watch the Olympics I've seen some athletes help others by stretching and

I've heard them use icing. Even these approaches have been debunked - see The

First 20 Minutes by Gretchen Reynolds.

Then again when I tell people I successfully overcame the fibromyalgia I lived

with in my 20's and 30's primarily through movement. Ah those glazed looks and

rolling eyeballs have become familiar.

So for those of you interested in digging deeper and discovering for yourself

how the brain itself can make incredible changes... I recently opened up

http://MoveLikeAnAnimal.com which is geared towards soccer players and athletes,

yet is the very same thing I do with all people in chronic pain.

You can watch the 3 Free Training Videos and learn why stretching is no longer

supported, how we can use the brain to make changes and experience for yourself

what this former fm'er does to train and win medals at the both the state and

national levels.

Now at 51, I still gotta keep the central nervous system evolving so I can keep

successfully playing.

You can as well see what I have to offer at http://GravityWerks.com.

You can learn some basic somatic exercise movements where we use the brain to

change how our muscles respond so we can get back and track and return ourself

to comfort.
