After working in ICU for 35 years, retired nurse Brenda lived with back and hip pain until she discovered Body-Wize含羞草研究社檚 structural integration program.

含羞草研究社淚 had tried physio, chiropractic and massage with some relief but I have responded best to Ross含羞草研究社� work. I wish I had started much sooner含羞草研究社�. Structural integration sessions with Ross, who is relaxed and yet so thorough, have kept me moving and relatively pain-free since I retired. I highly recommend trying this form of treatment.含羞草研究社�

works with clients to treat the whole body, eliminating or reducing pain for the long term rather than simply masking symptoms short-term.

A former RCMP officer who suffered life-changing pain, Ross Short was told medication was his only answer. Seeking another opinion, he discovered the Victoria Pain Clinic. After completing the 10-day live-in program, and responding particularly well to Hellerwork, he knew he含羞草研究社檇 found his new calling.

含羞草研究社淚 knew what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I got into the next training session and the rest is history,含羞草研究社� reflects Short, who moved with his family to Kelowna to begin his practice, 含羞草研究社渂ringing Pilates and Hellerwork to the Okanagan.含羞草研究社�

What Body-Wize does and how it works

Short balances to address the body含羞草研究社檚 soft tissue system which wraps around muscles and organs. Through the process, he releases soft tissue shortening caused by emotional or physical injury, chronic stress or unhealthy habits.

含羞草研究社淣o one else does what I do 含羞草研究社� it含羞草研究社檚 a different approach to health,含羞草研究社� he explains.

Short says that with 93 per cent of his patients reporting reduced or eliminated chronic pain, his success rests in understanding, and teaching clients about, the interconnectedness of various body elements.

The diaphragm 含羞草研究社� our deepest core muscle 含羞草研究社� touches 62 joints through our core, he notes, suggesting the number of people experiencing back pain could be halved if people learned to use their diaphragm properly, through breathing and core strength.

And since our ankles bear the most weight when we walk, if those joints are misaligned, pain can creep into the knees, hip and back, even causing headaches.

Clients are typically between age 30 and 70, from high-performance athletes to those just trying to move through life pain-free. In finding their way to Short含羞草研究社檚 clinic, they含羞草研究社檝e often exhausted standard medical options in their quest for relief.

Key to finding relief is education.

含羞草研究社淚t含羞草研究社檚 educating people so they know it含羞草研究社檚 there,含羞草研究社� Short says, 含羞草研究社渁nd I want to give you the information to use the tools you already have, but don含羞草研究社檛 know how to use yet.含羞草研究社�
