Another from BSR SA:
*Leonard, aged 52, had long-term, severe lower-back and left leg pain. After his first BSR session his coccyx was burning and the leg pain was worse. Over the next month he experienced good and bad days, while the pain decreased to some extent. However, he decided that he would prefer a quicker solution through spinal surgery which his orthopaedic surgeon had suggested months before. The surgery was booked. At the pre-op check the day before, the surgeon informed Leonard that surgery was out of the question and demanded to know what on earth he had been doing to be so improved. When told about BSR the surgeon advised him to “keep it up”. Soon after that he was able to drive again. After eight more BSR sessions, eight months later, Leonard was fit and pain-free, and once again able to enjoy his favourite activities – hiking and cycling.

“As human beings we are made up of three aspects - body, mind and emotions. These are of course, interconnected and interdependent. When we have a physical experience, it also affects us mentally and emotionally, something that has a mental or emotional impact will also reverberate into the body”- Unlocking Tension, Restoring Self Healing - Gail Meggersee

One thing that has been proven over and over again is that BSR definitely helps clients sleep better and wake with less pain. It might take a session or three to get to that point but it is almost always the case. Not only does a good night's sleep regenerate the body but your body naturally reduces the levels of cortisol and other stress hormones whilst sleeping, so a good night’s sleep also helps with emotional regulation.
In other words, people who sleep better are generally calmer and less reactive to negative situations.
So make sure to book your first session at a practitioner near you ASAP!

“People choose to undergo Body Stress Release for a variety of reasons. The most common motivation is to find relief from symptoms like pain and stiffness. However, as nearly all clients go to a practitioner as a result of a personal referral from a friend, relative or a health practitioner, they often have an understanding from these people’s experiences that BSR has a more profound purpose: as communication is restored within the body, it is enabled to function more efficiently. Therefore people who seek out BSR are hoping for an upgrade of their body’s ability to deal with a wide range of health issues and conditions.” - Gail Meggersee (Self-healing with Body Stress Release Unlocking Stored Tension)

Our this week is about *Patrick is a retired Geologist born in Detmold, Germany in 1937. He was first brought by his son for BSR in Aug 2011 after surviving a second stroke.
At the time he was undergoing speech therapy as he could not speak, and seeing a physiotherapist on a regular basis. He had lost full feeling in his left foot, he also struggled with his speech, and with on-going left sciatic pain due to an undiagnosed condition many years ago, which brought about raging fevers when he worked at Lake Tanganyika in Africa. He shared how he had to spend many months in hospital undergoing investigative procedures as a result.
Through the years he has not only survived bladder cancer, but also experienced a third stroke. Over time, with regular BSR sessions and coming to terms with his limitations in reading and driving, his initial garbled communications via WhatsApp with his practitioner became clearer, and his speech improved. When he was unable to have his usual BSR sessions due to isolation during the COVID pandemic, he become frailer and battled to walk.
He and his practitioner have built a rapport over the years, and with his immense knowledge on a variety of diverse topics, their regular interactions afford him much needed mental stimulation. With her gentle prompting when he cannot find the appropriate words, which he finds very frustrating, she is patient in waiting for him to search for an alternative word.
We are pleased to report that with a regular BSR maintenance routine in place again, he continues to look forward to, and enjoy, his sessions. When his practitioner asked him how he feels BSR has benefitted him, his response was: ‘I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for BSR! I wouldn’t be able to walk! It assists me with pain relief, and I’m glad it helps to preserve some memory, which would be lost otherwise.’

WHAT IS BODY STRESS?
Disruption of natural healing.
“When normal stresses and strains reach the point of overload, tension may become locked into the body’s physical structures. Over time this accumulative progression of body stress exerts pressure on the spinal nerves and may result in pain, numbness, muscle weakness, stiffness, distorted posture and impaired functioning.”

Our story this week is about 48-year-old, *Julian. *Julian was experiencing calf pain so intense that he couldn’t walk or go to work. He was not aware of any pain in his lower back and even after a week of traction in hospital, felt no relief. After the first BSR session his lower back became very painful as feeling was restored to numbed nerves. The calf pain was unchanged. After the second session 3 days later, the pain withdrew from his calves and was felt in the hips and lower back. After further releases 5 days later, the pain in the lower back began to lessen too. The final session was 3 days after that. Within 2 weeks *Julian was pain-free and was able to return to work.
