Like I said in the above paragraph. Hardly a day goes by that I’m not blown away by the effectiveness of Holographic Acupressure. Also, I’m getting use to working in a medical environment. After working in a spa for 21 years in a row, it was quite a change. One of my favorite sayings is....Everything is difficult in the beginning.... And that was true for me even though I’d been a massage therapist for thirty years at that point. I’m going to guess I’ve been working in the clinic for about five months now. I’m feeling more confident. And because of that. I sort of got my chi back. More confidence. And because of that. I’m able to help more people now.
When I first commented about starting in this medical clinic, I said that the percentage of people that I’d be able to help was low, do to the severity of the pain issues. Like complex regional pain syndrome, to name one. But I’m finding, because my confidence is back. I can help a lot more people.
One patient recently. A guy with 30 years of pain. Came in with a pain level of 7/10. It’s a constant level. And it use to be even worse, but he has been treated in this clinic by high level medical doctors, and his pain level has gone down. But it’s still a constant 7/10. A one on the pain scale is you cut your finger. A ten is , someone trying to saw your leg off. So his pain is pretty substantial. I worked on him for thirty minutes. I found and deactivated twenty trigger points utilizing my Holographic Acupressure techniques. And we may not have gotten them all. Probably not. But when he got up off the table, he was a 3/10. Later on, I ran into him in the hallway of the building. He said he was feeling fantastic. I think he is going to be feeling really good after six sessions.
Treatment notes are in the attachment below.

One of the things I like about Holographic Acupressure are the numerous deactivation areas for any given tender spot or trigger point. This is very helpful because some people are very sore and may have trigger points in the deactivation area. If they do,you simply go to one of the many alternative deactivation areas. Also, a deactivation area that works for one person, may not work for somebody else. In which case, you move to another deactivation areas for that particular trigger point or tenderpoint.
In the video link below, you will see me deactivate a PSIS trigger point. The patient is one of my co-workers, a pre med student that runs five to ten miles every morning. Can you believe that? I’m lucky to drag myself out of bed and make a cup of coffee in the mornings. Anyway, as a result, she always has a left hip trigger point or two that I can deactivate. You will notice that my first attempt at deactivation failed. The second attempt did not fail. Also notice I’m not trying to feel the tissues. Taught bands and all this kind of stuff that they teach in these trigger point seminars. The patient tells me if I’m on a trigger point, and when the trigger point is deactivated. All that subjective palpation stuff is an over complication and a waste of time if you ask me. And you will notice that when I get the right deactivation area, the trigger point is gone instantly.

I love going to work everyday. Because the doctors and staff I work with know I’m not a charlitan. And that the procedures I’ve discovered, and continue to develop,are real and viable, when it comes to eliminating myofascial pain.
But outside of my work environment. Away from the doctors, nurses, staff, and patients. When I tell others about my work. Most of them think I’m full of it. There is a great deal of skepticism. Understandably I guess. When you look at my videos, other then maybe being placebo effect, they are hard to accept as being real. I’ve been called all kinds of things. It use to really bother me. But now, a bunch of really smart people know, and work with me. It’s so cool. So now it doesn’t bother me very much. Lol.
Anyway, here is a coment ( in the attachment) I received on one of my youtube videos, and my answer to it. It’s pretty typical, except for the lack of bad words.

I’d actually like to have the time, money, and a University to do a double blind study on my system. Because of that, it will remain none evidence based for a long time.
Every truth passes through three stages before it is recognized. In the first, it is ridiculed, in the second it is opposed, in the third it is regarded as self-evident. —. Arthur Schopenhauer 1788-1860

That sounds really amazing! I think the best way to get the word out would be to keep writing and blogging about it.
I know a great social media marketing guy who does Facebook Ads... That would be a great way too.

Yeah, I need to get more organized on certain levels( getting the word out ). My life seems fairly busy as it is. I’m still studying and developing new ideas. I’m working in a very good environment for seeing what works and what doesn’t. I guess I’m not quite ready to seriously market the system. But soon I think? Thanks for the comments.

I’m constantly freaked out as to what this new system ( Holographic Acupressure) allows me to do. I started the thread talking about helping a patient suffering from long time GERD. The other day, I had two amazing results. Now to qualify myself, I also had tree patients that I was unable to help at all. Their pain unfortunately had zero myofascial component at all. I have another patient that I’m not sure about. I should be able to help her, and I think that in time I can. But that’s part of the problem. She is paying cash. My experience with that is, you gotta fix them fast. They will go to a chiropractor or physical therapist for a year with little to no clinical results, exhaust their insurance. Then come to me as a cash patient. And expect me to fix them in one or two short sessions. Anyway, I digress. Got off the subject a bit.
I had two patients that I dramatically helped in very short sessions. One patient, a young military guy with mid back pain. He had gotten some injections with limited results a couple weeks back. He was in the clinic for a follow up. One of the PAs thought that he might have a myofascial component to his problem, so he came and got me. I went in to the room. Talked to the guy. Explained about what I do. Had him watch a couple videos. His eyes got big when watching the videos. When I see that, it’s a good sign. I still don’t know if I can help the guy, but now I have the placebo effect and all it’s benifits on my side. What I do is not placebo. But if the patient believes in me. Trust me, if there is any chance of me helping him, it will happen. Anyway I found several trigger points on his para spinals and QL , and ribs. I worked on him maybe eight minutes. He got up off the table with a stunned look on his face. And he said that he didn’t feel any pain what so ever! That freaked me out even. I left the room to get the scribe that has been taking notes and documenting his treatments. She came into the room with me to document. He told her that he didn’t hurt at all. Then I asked him what about movement? Is there a movement that he does that hurts. He then twisted his body to the left. You could see the pain in his face. It obviously hurt. Now I had taken out his palpatory pain. Sometimes that’s all you gotta do to help the patient. But sometimes that’s not enough. The other type of pain is, Pain On Movement. You have to treat that separately. So while the scribe was in the room. That’s what I did. His lower left back hurt when he twisted his trunk to the left. I put my right hand over the area that hurt, and with my left hand touching a release point for that area on his left arm. I asked him to twist, and see if it still hurts. It did not. In order to wipe out his muscle memory I had him repeat that twisting movement, while I held the release points, seven times. Then I took my hands off him and asked him to now twist and see if it hurts. To his surprise, the scribes surprise, and even mine. It didn’t hurt him any more. That’s the power of Holographic Acupressure.
Another patient was a lady, I believe with shoulder, arm,, neck, and a very bothersome pain which she discribed as deep inside the ear pain. She had gone to the another doctor for her ear pain. And the doctor said he could not find anything wrong with her ear. Which by the way, is a very good sign as far as I’m concerned. That often times means myofascial. Long story short, it was. Her treatment notes are in the attachment below. You guys. Holographic Acupressure is revolutionary. No other soft tissue system , or any other therapeutic system for that matter, could have taken that inside the ear pain away. And her total treatment took only 15 minuets.

Holographic Acupressure can release pretty much any contracted trigger pointed muscle in the body. And it does it instantly, because its based on initiating the nervous system to do all the work. The nervous system controls everything, including all body movements, both conscious and unconscious, hence it controls the muscles.
The nervous system tells what muscle to contact and which muscle to relax. That’s why Holographic Acupressure is so fast and effective.
Holographic Acupressure is based primarily on four neurological reflexes.
1. The Inverse myotatic reflex
2. The Reciprocal inhibition reflex
3. Pflugers law of symmetry
4. The righting reflexes
You can pretty much use any one of those reflexes on any muscle you want. Some muscles respond more effectively with one reflex then the other. Each individual patient/client will respond better to one reflex over the other.
If you watch my videos sometimes you see me pause or hesitating slightly before initiating a release. That’s because I’m thinking, which one of those reflexes( and the possibilities for that particular reflex)will work best in this situation and on this particular patient/client?
All that being said, and all the great things I’ve said about this therapy. It won’t work on everyone. But it does work on most people. Better and more effectively then any other therapy I’ve ever experienced or studied. In the next comment box below I will post a video of a patient suffering with fibromyalgia. There is no way that she could handle any other kind of conventional massage, let alone get any benefit. I think I’ve posted it before. Lots of people that see my videos think what I’m doing is b u l l s h I t. It is not. But I have to admit, if I saw this video ten years ago, I would have thought the same thing. It looks like magic. But if you think about it. Our bodies, our nervous system, and the world around us is magical.

Ok, below is the video I mentioned above. If i want to start teaching this for educational credits I’d have to go through the NCBTMB. Lots of paperwork pain and probably money. Of course I could just teach anyone. So I may just do that? It’s actually easy to learn.
Anyway, one no longer has to dig and work hard in order to relax an effected muscle. Check it out.

I’m thinking out loud here. I think I’m going to skip all the NCBTMB, and CEU rigimarole for now, and create a copy proof dvd that explains my system, the theory behind it, and how to apply it. It would come with a chart and a book. The whole set would sell for maybe $500.00. And people would have phone access to me on the weekends for a certain period of time. And maybe a one month money back guarantee. Like I said, just thinking out loud. But that seems to be the easiest thing to do. And if it leads to NCBTMB Certification or seminars down the road, that will be good too.
Like everything else, all I need is money and time.

A small miracle happened the other day. I don’t want this to come off like I’m bragging. I’ve had many failures in my career. I’m just excited about what Holographic Acupressure can do. When you get this system down, small miracles happen, not all the time, but at a higher frequency then one would expect.
The anesthesiologist called me into the room and introduced me to a new patient. She was suffering low back and right hip pain for five years. He called me in the room in order to rule out any possible myofascial component to her pain, other wise they were going to have do some sort of facet joint injections to try and help this patient.
I took her into my room. Explained what I was going to do, and started palpating for trigger points. I had her touch where she felt her pain. Basically the low back and right hip. There were no trigger points or palpatory pain in those areas. I thought, oh well, no myofascial component to her pain. At this point five minutes of palpation had gone by. Then I decided that I better check the lateral lumbar spinous. Bingo! When I palpated the left lateral process of the L3 ish area , it recreated the pain that she experiences in her low back and right hip. I did a release for that area, and in less then a second the pain vanished. I held the release foe twenty seconds. The cool part was that the release procedure was on a specific area of her skull. She got up off the table pain free. You should have seen her face. Stunned and amazed. Zero pain. Two doctors came in the room. Talked to her a few minutes. With a big smile on his face, the doc gave me the thumbs up. And walked out of the room to help another patient.
Now it remains to be seen, how long that holds. If the pain stayed gone for at least a couple hours. I can probably help her to some degree. If it stays gone for eight hours. I can probably totally cure her. But anyway, that was really cool and made my day. This is a powerful modality.
In addition, I’ve also found a business partner with enough wherewithal to help me get certified and set up to teach seminars. Hopefully before the end of this year.

One of.the PAs thought he had another patient with a lot of Myofascial stuff, and wanted me to check her out. When I got to the room, the patient told me that she has not been able to lift her right arm for over a year.
She had an upper trapezius trigger point, three deltoid trigger points, and two biceps trigger points. All those trigger points were palpated and eliminated quickly and easily with the holographic acupressure techniques. I also had to do a pain on motion procedure that took maybe 15 seconds. The total treatment took maybe five minutes. Here is her testimonial.
