When the pain carries on....

Helicopter Operations 1992
I joined the armed forces back in the mid 80's and spent the best part of 25 years keeping myself fit enough to fight. In fact I would go so far as to say I was extremely fit, I had to be in the job I was doing. Eventually though all good things come to an end, and I left the forces around 5 years ago. Shortly after leaving I suffered a series of fairly serious horse riding accidents, resulting in (not all at once) a fractured spine, pelvis, ribs, arm, wrist, collar bone to name just a few! Naturally my ability to be able to run and keep fit was somewhat curtailed for a while. However, as soon as I was able to, I started getting back into running again, but I soon discovered that my back just wasn't playing ball. Even just going for a short run was painful the next day. I had MRI's, various cortisone injections, and physiotherapy, all to no avail. The surgeon simply couldn't find out what was causing the problem as all of my fractures had healed up correctly. In the end the hospital stopped contacting me for pain clinic appointments, and although nobody said anything to me about them having done all they could, that seems to be the case as they simply haven't been in touch.
Eventing.

Being a trainer of NLP & Hypnotherapy and a Master Practitioner of Time Line Therapy®, I of knew deep inside, that because the fractures had healed the problem was no longer physical. I knew that this thing that felt like a bad back (and my riding accidents), were in fact linked to the death of my father who had died shortly after I left the forces. I realised that I needed help. Luckily I have a large network of friends and associates who have carried out exactly the same training as me and therefore it was fairly simple to find someone who could stay Meta on the problem and help me solve it. Einstein once said "You can't solve a problem with the same mind that created it". So even though I applied a lot of my techniques to self, in this case it needed someone else to coach the coach! 

It only took a couple of sessions of Time Time Line Therapy® to get to the root cause of the problem and to get rid of the pain. Metaphorically speaking backs are all about support, and in reality if you think about it they support our whole bodies in one way or another. I discovered the pain I had been experiencing was around a lack of support issue that my unconscious mind wanted me to resolve. 3 years of back pain disappeared after just 2 hours with one of our coaches. I know it probably sounds slightly far fetched but think about it, who was creating the pain? I was!....once you resolve the problem of the pain it no longer has any purpose and goes away. There has been a lot of research carried out, in particular by a chap called Sarno, however Dr's Hamer and Chopra have also carried out extensive research into physical symptomatology caused by emotional trauma. 

I'm back running again and loving it. In fact I will be running my first 10 Km run for over 5 years in April 2013.

Whilst I realise how powerful the techniques that I have available are, I have to be careful that I'm not treading on the toes of traditional medicine. For sure, there are people that are ill and have physical problems that are fixed every day using modern medicine and if you are unwell go and see your GP, please don't call us, (We will however take referrals from your doctor!) What I am suggesting is that there is another dimension to this. If we are able to make up our mind to accept that we are creating the problem, we can almost certainly fix it.

If you have been down the conventional medical route, and are still having problems, just ask yourself this question and take the first answer you get. What significant emotional event happened in your life shortly before this problem appeared? I think you may be surprised by the answer. Once you have that answer you are literally just minutes away from getting rid of negative emotions that surround the event, and any limiting decisions you may have made as a result of your past. If you are having 'problems' and want to get rid of them, and you are based in the UK or Europe, then  request a callback via our website or send us an e-mail  We have a number of options to suit every budget, so feel free to get in touch.
