I always notice how easily and fluidly you stand up at the end of the lesson - how about some more lessons on moving from floor to standing and back to floor?? please!
HiAlfons! i tripped trail running in April;and my right knee has been inflamed since-but this (in conjunction w/Part 1) has made my knee+i Happy again-in 2 short lessons-Bravo&ManyThanks!
Dear Alfons, I've been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease. Which of your videos would be of most benefit, please? I want to do everything I can to help myself.
I had the same diagnosis about 12 years ago, which was shipped with some badly looking x-rays. It was a distressing time in which I could barely get from the bedroom to the bathroom. I needed about 1 year to review all the available literature, listened to hundreds of hours of interviews, and finally came out on top. I didn’t get surgery, and nowadays get by with a minimum of specific exercises. Just last week I did a 6 hour strenuous hike in the alps, without any repercussions the next day. I’m quite amazed myself. I do teach clients in person, and I believe almost everyone with so called degenerative disc disease can lead a life largely unbothered by back-pain, but the solution needs to match the client, there’s no general recipe. I remember you already watched a number of my videos… so I’m not sure whether you missed a crucial video or crucial idea/concept… so I don’t know what to recommend other than a private lesson via video-chat online (pm me). Other than that, the “Getting better day by day” videos and “Tight neck? Here’s help!” videos would be a start to learn from a somatic education perspective. In any case, back-pain must not be a life sentence! I have hope and know from client work and experience that improvement is possible, even in the worst looking cases. I wish you all the best!
@@ImprovingAbility Thank you for sharing such a personal story with me. I really appreciate it and it gives me hope. I will check out the videos you mentioned with the understanding that a person to person session is really necessary for the most accurate and personalized help. I start physical therapy in a couple of weeks and may contact you afterwards. It would be very cool to have a session with you.
Not only do my knees feel less jammed but, surprisingly, my calf muscles feel less tense. Very interesting lesson. Thank you, Alfons!
