Ironically, it wasn’t relentlessly training that improved my strength, but instead taking a step back and focusing on building a better body.

The feeling of "lightness" clients describe after sessions is what it feels like when your body isn't having to fight against itself to move.

This is an excellent article. This is why RAPID NFR works so well and is so effective at treating pain.

Probably one of the BEST articles you will ever read on pain in treatment.

At RAPID, we poke the bear just right. It is this poking that is the success of our therapy and truly what sets us apart.

Years ago, I would stand in front of our classes and say to them-“when I figure out how to do this without nociception, you’ll be the first to know”. Now after 7 years of teaching, and researching -absolutely every single day, I know that it is that nociception that sets us apart and makes RAPID the phenomenal success that it is.

Why on earth does your old injury hurt when you are getting sick? Because for the most part there is A LOT of immunological garbage in the area that becomes highly active at any sign of illness. Physiologically your body failed to clear these immunological factors after the initial injury and subsequent insults. These "chronic artifacts of inflammation", now tell you when you're getting sick because they are still highly sensitive, still on guard and still actually irritating your nervous system, just now not for healing but simply because they were never properly flushed out in the first place.

Absolutely! In fact, being inactive is one of the worst things you can do - both physically and mentally.

I post a lot about adhesions and what to do about them. But how do we avoid them? Adhesions, aside from the surgical variety, typically form as an adaptation to prolonged, excessive mechanical stresses such as tension, friction, and compression. Inflammation can often lead to adhesion as well. These stresses lead to reduced circulation which leads to the laying down of additional tissue for reinforcement. Whatever stresses may be involved, two things are necessary to allow adhesions to really happen; limited motion and limited circulation. If you keep an area moving regularly, that not only limits the ability of adhesions to develop, but also helps maintain circulation to the area. This won't do much for adhesions you already have, but it can prevent the ones you don't.
