My experience with NER over 27 years.
In 1983 I had a…read moreserious traffic accident, and shortly after had a skydiving accident. The result of these injuries was that my pelvis had been rotated, causing a great deal of nerve pain in my lower back area.
I began to see chiropractors, physical therapists, etc., sometimes as often as twice a week; often the treatments were very painful. After many years of trying many different modalities, I was still left with a lot of pain every day. It would take me several minutes just to get out of bed in the morning. I also sported around a quite pronounced limp; my "penguin walk". Any misstep could bring forth pain that would literally make me shout, and it could be days or weeks before I got back to my "normal" level of discomfort. After over twelve years of this type of living, I had simply accepted my situation.
November of '95, a massage therapist friend of mine asked me if I wanted to check out some new work that, according to the brochure was useful to sufferers of a very long list of conditions and symptoms.
As it happened, I wound up being a model for the presenter (Don Kipp) to demonstrate with. This fellow "assesses" my structure, high shoulder here, pelvis forward there, and so on. After the assessment, he worked on me for about ten or fifteen minutes. The results were, and are, astounding! My pain was 95% gone, and it took my limp with it! I got more lasting relief in fifteen minutes of NER, than had been achieved in YEARS of other systems, and the treatment wasn't painful either. More importantly to me, these results were not temporary, requiring frequent "tune-up" visits or a dependency on this treatment. It worked in spite of my skepticism.
Construction Accident 6/1/2005
A set of stairs I was on collapsed and I fell through them feet first 12 feet to a concrete basement floor. This fall resulted in a Sanders 4 calcaneal fracture (crushed heal), with talar and subtalar ankle fractures of the right foot. The orthopedic diagnosis was grim, with the recommended surgery being to screw and plate everything back together which would have resulted in zero range of motion in any direction.
Having had such a terrific result with NER previously, I discussed with my orthopedic surgeon the option of a 'conservative approach' (no surgery). I asked him to consider just monitoring my progress, and if it wasn't working, I would agree to have the surgery. He reluctantly agreed, but made it clear he was very skeptical and felt I was just delaying the inevitable.
After the swelling reduced somewhat, I saw Don and he performed NER several times over a period of weeks. During one session I heard an audible SNAP!, which didn't hurt, but just felt 'odd'. I asked Don about it, and he said that it was likely bones moving back into place. X-rays in August confirmed that, and the doctor said that I was 4-6 months ahead what he expected, and I was able to move into a weight-bearing boot.
Another 2 NER treatments in September, and October. I started PT during this time as well. Range of motion which was nearing 96% of NORMAL. Then in November another set of x-rays confirmed complete healing, and I was released from doctor care. The last thing the orthopedic surgeon said to me on that last visit was 'If I hadn't seen you from the very beginning, I would not have believed this outcome was possible." I went skiing to celebrate.
Paramotor Crash (Powered ParaGliding) 2/21/2022
I made a critical error on a launch, I should have aborted. The result was landing facedown, resulting in multiple facial orbital fractures (eye sockets) observed via CT scan. Other symptoms included neck pain, headaches, and facial numbness on the right side.
My first thought after seeing the CT scan was 'I gotta get to Don Kipp and NER.' After a couple of sessions with Don, I went to see a surgeon as well to verify improvements were happening. He told me that surgery wasn't called for after measuring eye movement, eye tests to verify vision quality, and some improvement in the numbness already. It was only three weeks after the accident.
4/8/2022 nearly symptom free after only three treatments of NER. This isn't surprising to me. What was surprising to me was this was achieved *remotely*, in that I'm in Naples, FL and Don is in Colorado. We did all treatments over Zoom. I was skeptical and fully expected to need to travel to Colorado to receive effective treatment. I don't understand how this works remotely, but once again, the results speak for themselves.
I hope that you can suspend your disbelief long enough to give NER a try and see for yourself.
