Body Balance Process creates alternative path to eliminate chronic training related back pain
-“The thoroughness of the evaluation protocol inspired confidence and lent significant credibility to the prescribed corrective actions”
– John Gilbert 48, Columbus OH
After several years of mounting frustration with recurring lower back problems, I began to search for an alternative path to the failed promises of x-rays, chiropractic care and traditional physical and exercise therapies. Even when I was not physically injured, the fear of re-injury was a real limitation to my training. I avoided sprint work on the water and erg work was definitely not an option. I also found that training with weights presented some real challenges. As my training options dwindled, my performance on the water continued to suffer. It was abundantly clear that I needed to find an alternative path if I was going to continue to row.
I read a few of your articles and found my way to your web site. The materials looked compelling. After a 15-minute telephone conversation, we set a time for me to go through your Body Balance Evaluation Process (BBEP) evaluation process last July. I was thoroughly impressed with your detail orientation and professionalism. The thoroughness of the evaluation protocol inspired confidence and lent significant credibility to the corrective actions that you recommended. The corrective program you prescribed is the perfect combination of strength and flexibility exercises which were tailored to fit my specific needs. The corrective exercises are completely portable and easily adapted to almost any location. I travel extensively for my job, and I have done my “Kaehlers” from Shang Hai to Santiago.
I have been injury free since I began the program. Four weeks after initiating the corrective exercise program, I completed my first century bike ride, and I competed in two regional head races last fall. My training partners were surprised when I was able to handle sprint work on the erg. My confidence continues to build and I am preparing to embark on a much more ambitious training program this summer. It has been a great experience.
