McKeithan Pain Treatment Center

This is how a Bowen move is done. Female clients usually wear a cotton gown of their choice, but since this video is from my Bowen Therapy class, the model is wearing a bathing suit.

Lest there be any doubt, at McKeithan Pain Treatment Center, ALL faiths, ALL genders -- whether from birth or by later choice -- ALL sexual orientations, ALL races of humanity, are welcome and respected. I am embarrassed over many of the laws and policies of the current legislature and governor of my state

I regret that it has taken me so long to speak out.

I used to be proud to be a North Carolinian. Now, I don't know.. When ignorance, insensitivity and, yes, mean-spiritedness are combined with an obvious power-grab by our state legislators, the picture, the reputation of our state is tarnished deeply. Is this who we are, that our flagship university is reduced to ersatz education in service of sports teams that bring in big bucks? That our educational system, built with such commitment and integrity by leaders such as Terry Sanford, has lost ground and is failing the very students and society it is supposed to serve? ----and now, that individuals who’ve undergone lifelong emotional pain, suffered the consequences of having their bodies redesigned to align with their internal directives and in many cases alienating their families, are told that they can’t choose the public bathroom that aligns with their new bodies?

Well, it's not who I am, and it's not who many of my friends, clients and associates are. I invite you all to speak out, loudly, clearly, your own concerns, disgust, disappointments. But more than that, speak out your vision for a state and a people who respect one-another as fellow human beings, giving honor to all people, creating a society that supports and promotes growth, understanding, inclusiveness and, above all, love.

Yes, LOVE.

We create this country, day by day. We create it in what we say, what we do and what we withhold. When we withhold ourselves from the conversation that creates, or limit our contribution to critical cynicism, we are actually creating more of what's been occurring -- more of the same. Your voice matters. Join the creative conversation. Speak out! Vote! Cause something good!

Erhard is illustrating the kind of work we do in Muscle Memory Release, with the difference that we facilitate the client fully expressing SELF verbally in ways that releases pain from the body, AND takes care of the people to whom the client is expressing.

For years I've been advising clients to WALK BAREFOOTED, believing that shoes inhibit the strength, adaptability and flexibility of the foot, which in turn causes problems elsewhere in the body. A new book by Christopher McDougall, "Born to Run" (Alfred A. Knopf, NY,2010), bears it out in spades! Look for a blog post on the subject in a couple of days.
