Somatic


Move comfortably, again. Renovate yourself, with my help -- and end up feeling as you did ten to twenty years earlier.

-- BY APPLICATION, ONLY --

For you if you want the fastest enduring relief and no qualified Hanna somatic education practitioner is nearby; if your condition is beyond the expertise of your Hanna somatic educator -- or if you have a condition for which somatic education exercises, done by yourself, are too gradual.

"Dissolve Your Pain" means that pain is COMPLETELY GONE for good. (Rarely do sessions need repetition.)

"Renovate Yourself" means you get back the strength, posture and mobility you had ten to twenty years ago (or better).

Distinctly feel-able improvements come immediately during sessions. You'll start to feel more comfortable part-way into the first working session; improvements continue to accumulate as sessions progress. If you're like most people, you find that you feel and function BETTER THAN BEFORE your injury.

If you have a severe condition that has persisted or returned despite standard or alternative therapy, and you are both hopeful and skeptical about the likelihood of your recovery of movement health, a consultation by telephone will enable us to arrive at a clear, "yes-or-no" sense or whether you feel clinical somatic education is right for you.

You get:
  • up to three one-hour sessions per day for three or five days (your decision).

    Sessions consist of

    • functional assessment of posture, movement, and muscular state -- related to history of injuries and current pain status

    • clinical somatic education sessions that produce immediate and substantial improvements

    • instruction in relevant somatic education exercises

  • pre-recorded, do-at-home somatic education exercise instruction needed to retain improvements through any possible soreness periods, to enhance the improvements achieved during sessions, and to keep yourself pain-free for good.

    If in doubt that you are doing somatic education exercises correctly, call for mentoring. Done correctly, somatic education exercise practice produces distinct improvements with each practice session.

    • (THREE-DAY INTENSIVE), FOUR WEEKS of UNLIMITED DAYS of MENTORING (one session, max/day): live on-camera, or by telephone -- (mentoring if separately purchased, $2,250.00).

    • (FIVE-DAY INTENSIVE), NINE WEEKS of UNLIMITED DAYS of MENTORING (one session, max/day): live on-camera, or by telephone for nine weeks, thereafter -- (mentoring if separately purchased: $5,062.00).

    During the mentoring period, I recommend that you check in promptly if, after two practice sessions of a somatic education exercise, you feel stuck or wonder if you're doing it correctly. I ask twenty-four hours advance notice for scheduling purposes.

If you get what you need before completion of the intensive days purchased, you may deem service completed; the full standard fee applies. You may allocate unused session-hours to family members or friends (who should also have read, Somatics); however, any somatic education exercise programs for those others must be paid for separately.

PRE-REQUISITE

Read the book, Somatics | Re-Awakening the Mind's Control of Movement, Flexibility, and Health, by Thomas Hanna, available at Amazon.com and at many libraries.

SERVICE FEE SCHEDULE:

    Lifetime Satisfaction Guarantee
    My guarantee pre-supposes that you follow my instructions for practice of somatic education exercises during the mentoring period, that follows. The practice movements "capture" (reinforce) the changes from our sessions, the way one must review studied materials to retain them beyond the "cramming" period preceding examinations, in university studies.

    If at your location:

    Lifetime Satisfaction Refund Guarantee applies, minus my travel expenses (receipts provided as proof, upon request).

  • (my location): three-day intensive: $3,000.00 -- includes 4 weeks of mentoring (see, below)
    • (your location:) three day intensive | $6,000 plus travel expenses in excess of $2,000.00

  • (my location): five-day intensive: $5,000.00 -- includes 9 weeks of mentoring (see, below)
    • your location: five day intensive | $8,000.00 plus travel expenses in excess of $2,000.00

  • by-the-day option, without mentoring
      up to three sessions/day (each day of sessions gets one week of post-work mentoring, instructional materials extra)
    • (my location): $1,000.00/day, pre-scheduled and pre-paid

    • (your location): $1,000.00/day plus $1,000.00 travel fee pre-scheduled and pre-paid, plus travel expenses in excess of $2,000.00

    Travel fees are included for by-the-day extensions of three or five-day intensives at your location.

    Lifetime Satisfaction Refund Guarantee

    Due to the limited number of sessions that we can do when people choose the by-the day option, the guarantee applies when we do all of the sessions needed to address your pain patterns identified at the time of functional assessment and you have diligently done the somatic education exercises given.

    I do not guarantee full results from a job partially done.

    At the time of assessment, we will go over the assessment, together, to determine what needs to be done.

    Because I give my best from the beginning, invoking my guarantee precludes the possibility of our working together again, in the future.

    APPLICATION:

    All candidates for this special service complete an application form.

    and pay a $100.00 deposit (applied to the SERVICE FEE or refunded if I decline to take you as a client).

    Incomplete applications or applications submitted without the application fee will not be considered.

    On occasion, people apply whom I do not deem to be good candidates for the work and I say so. I do not guarantee results for people I have said are poor candidates.

    Please submit completed application and deposit (personal check acceptable) payable to:

    Lawrence Gold

    and mail to:

    11162 SE 64th Avenue
    Milwaukie, OR 97008

    For service at your location, you must arrange lodging and a workspace (including a treatment table), since I probably don't know the geography of your locality.

    People who have gone the gamut of standard and alternative therapies and still been trapped in their painful condition have usually found clinical somatic education is their way out.
