NOW WE'RE INTO
ONE OF MY PASSIONS!
Health and natural
living are a big part of my life.
My quest for health over the years has led me to a number of
excellent practitioners in a variety of healing modalities.
What amazes me about the body is the sheer number of ways it can be
accessed -
nutritional, muscular, electrical (nerve), structural, emotional,
energetic.
There is more than one way to get to the bottom of something,
because the body is an amazing maze of overlapping 'systems'.
All of these are naturopathic non-invasive approaches,
(i.e. no cut, drug, or burn).
There is little knowledge of non'-allopathic' medicine in the U.S.,
so I put this out as a public service.
Feel free to ask me questions, if you like..
Most of these practitioners I have known for years;
I consider them to be among the finest available.

MASSAGE:
There are massage
therapists, and there are massage therapists.
I don't know about you, but I can't stand a wimpy massage.
Lisa Aspy is a ballbuster. Yep.
Want a massage that really moves some stuff?
Lisa is your man... er, woman.
Everyone I've sent to her comes back with glowing reports
and returns again and again.

CHIROPRACTIC:
Bob
Dalton
Bob Dalton is one of the best structural chiropractors and kinesiologists
I've ever been to.
Plus, his knowledge of herbs, yoga, and running is quite extensive.
Always friendly, always willing to give tips on how to improve posture
& health.
His clients loooove him, and I am one of them!

Alan
Katz
I first met Alan Katz in 1993, when I moved to Virginia-Highlands.
He practices a style of chiropractic called 'Networking' -
a blend of energy work, breathwork, and chiropractic adjustment -
designed to remove stress, (mental, physical, chemical, emotional),
before the adjustment.
The subjective experience can be freeing and cathartic.
This is where science meets the body and the soul.

Leon
Lashner
Leon practices work so deep and profound, I call him 'The Mind Reader'.
He began practicing the highly refined form of chiropractic called DNFT,
then added Applied Kinesiology, then Total Body Modification,
then came up with a system of diagnosis that uses kinesiology
to read not only physical but emotional causes of dis-ease.
It really works, and it's amazing.
The body knows, even when the conscious mind suppresses.

NUTRITION:
Philip Mundhenk is
a brain.
There's no other way to describe a guy
who can quote 50 studies on a supplement - pro and con - verbatim
-
then sum it up for you in a sentence.
Unlike most doctors who study disease, (what goes wrong
with the body),
Philip's focus is longevity, (what goes right with the body).
Philip was at Bill Stanton's Health Market for years,
and is currently available for private consultation.
(BTW - Bill Stanton has moved to Lawrenceville,
and is using a new diagnostic tool that is very interesting).

STRUCTURAL
INTEGRATION:
As someone who has
been through two bad car accidents, I know about pain.
The effect of a saxophone around one's neck doesn't help, either.
There is a solution.
Marilyn Morrison practices Structural Integration,
the Rolf Method, (sometimes called 'Rolfing'),
developed by a brilliant woman named Ida Rolf.
Structural Integration re-aligns the body back to a state where it is
happy with gravity -
ears over shoulders, shoulders over hips, hips over knees, knees over
instep.
This is done by reshaping and balancing the muscles.
It's like a massage, but with no oil.
It can be intense - but well worth it!
It occurs over a
'series' of 10-12 sessions.
It is's amazing work that can increase your breathing capacity,
which in turn affects your oxygen intake and entire cellular biochemistry.
After my series, I gained a 1/2 on my height,
my neck returned over my shoulders
and my back pain substantially decreased.
Marilyn also teaches a form of yoga called 'Svaroopa',
and runs a multi-disciplinary healing complex that houses other practitioners.

YOGA:
First, let's dispel
some myths:
1) Yoga is not a religion. You don't have to accept any religious beliefs
to do it.
2) You don't have to believe in reincarnation to do it
3) You don't have to shave your head or chant weird mantras
Yoga, in its simplest
sense, is stretching and breathing.
Yoga, in it's literal sense, means 'unity' - oneness of mind, body,
and spirit.
Since Metamorphosis closed and Debra Ellen Berry moved to Asheville,
I have yet to find an instructor I really love.
If you have suggestions, let me know.
____________
BREATHWORK:
Michael Casteel is
a breathworker.
To put this much oxygen thru your body is amazing.
It will get you out of any rut you feel you're in -
better than a drug any day.
Michael coaches
people thru rhythmic breathing.
You might think, 'Breathing... big deal!'
Stanislov Grof used breathwork as a substitute for LSD to map
the subconscious -
that's how deep it gets.
It can clear blocked things, and the experience is very deep and beautiful.
I achieve beautiful, timeless states in my sessions,
and the effects stay with me for days.

FITNESS
TRAINING:
There are trainers,
and then there are intelligent, skilled trainers.
Andrew Johnston is a Physical Fitness Trainer par excellence,
and an Olympic athlete who's conscious about proper posture and form.
The thing I like
about him is he tests your body for one whole session...
before you even see a set of weights.
He learns what's weak and what's strong, and customizes his training
- to you.
It's not just about picking up a set of weights,
with is the difference between Neanderthal and excellent.
He has also been 'Rolfed', and studies nutrition and kinesiology.
Quite simply, he's at the top of his game.

QUANTUM
PHYSICS:
The movie 'What the
Bleep do we know?',
is a layman's understanding of Quantum Physics and how it translates
into daily life,
in each and every glorious waking moment.

THE
POWER OF INTENTION:
For me, this is the
most important spiritual lecture I've ever seen..
If I had one item to give someone towards a happier life, it
would be this DVD.
(I give them out as presents).
Dr. Wayne Dyer put this show out on PBS,
so either donate to your local PBS station, or find a copy on eBay.
Or call me and we'll watch it together! -
