    I really like his explanations with his relaxing but guiding voice - it helps me transition easier into meditative/informitive state when dealing with intense pain. Thank you

    Doc, this was so helpful. Also, thank you for taking the time to show the do,s and the don't,s. I have chronic lower back pains for over 10 years and have been spending thousands of dollars to get help. In the past 3 weeks you are the the third person that have made a huge difference in my journey to be free from pain.

    I came here wondering about properly doing the cat position. Not only did I learn exactly what I was wondering but I also really appreciate the extra stretch to target the upper back. Thanks a tonne!

  • @akirosakuragi9279

    Out of dozens of videos about this exercise, no one did such a good job of explaining where the movement originates from, which is weird. All this time, I've felt like I did it wrong and now I know why. Thank you for your guidance Sir. I really hope that you have the same approach to all the other exercises.

    Priceless advice. I was shown these moves and stretches before but they didn't really help. Seeing the proper technique shown here has made a massive difference even after a few days. Can't thank you enough.

    @v.prestorpnrcrtlcrt2096 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    My question is going into cow. As I lower my belly and bring my heart forward, my concern is at the lower back and can you flex too far? Ie) almost pointing the tailbone to the ceiling at the end of the inhalation giving an extra small flex? Or is it better to not do that extra little flex at the end, keeping the lower spine more neutral with concentration being more on the opening of the chest?
