The Network Wave of Healing: About Network Spinal Analysis

Research at the Medical College of the University of California, Irvine demonstrated that patients under Network care reported significant improvement in physical health and symptoms, emotional/mental health and symptoms, stress, and life enjoyment. A unique Wellness Index was developed to assess these categories for overall quality of life. Seventy-six percent (76%) of the over 2,800 patients assessed had improvement in every category. Although physical symptoms changed most often within the first couple of months, patients reported their overall life enjoyment and quality of life continuing to improve year after year.

During Network Spinal Analysis (NSA) care two “healing waves” develop which are unique to Network. One is a breathing wave that releases tension throughout the spine and body, causing a greater sense of relaxation. The other is called a somato-psychic, or body-mind wave, which is associated with a dolphin type undulation or movement of the spine. These waves are related to a significant increase in wellness and quality of life.

Once people experience these Network “healing waves”, they tend to make healthier choices. Suddenly the exercise, diet, supplements, meditation or prayer that may have, until that point, resulted in minimal wellness benefits, now increases in effectiveness. Saying it differently, people in Network care who experience these waves, often triple their perceived wellness. As these “healing waves” progress along a person’s spine, they revitalize, energize, and help the body to self correct distortions of alignment and posture. In other words, spinal vertebrae spontaneously realign. The waves help move “stuck energy” and are a resource of new energy and vitality.

NSA helps the person “inside” who is experiencing disease, and must deal with a prognosis, treatment, and symptoms. With care they are better able to develop innate strategies to find tension in their bodies and spontaneously move and breathe to dissipate it. NSA helps the person to use the energy within their spinal tension (and unresolved past and current stressful or traumatic experiences) to fuel the healing process. Network Care helps the internal cues to become so available that people more often act, think, feel and respond in a more productive and healthier fashion. The internal communication systems become clearer to coordinate the body more effectively even during periods of stress and trauma. People have been shown to make healthier choices and enjoy life more. Also, a wide range of physical complaints such as headaches, stiffness, pain, eczema, menstrual cramps, and dizziness have been reported by the Network patients to improve or resolve.

Why is it that we lose health and wellness?

It seems associated with the way we experience our world. When an event occurs that our brain determines is not safe for us to fully experience, the energy and information of the event is translated into vibration and tension, which is then stored in the body.

Until it is safe to experience that energy again, and our bodies develop the strategies to handle the information from the trauma, we cannot really feel whole or well. The state of safety is one that promotes internal awareness and internal growth.

Our body tenses more easily and our physiology remains set on “defense.” In defense we tighten, our blood pressure tends to rise, we feel less emotion and are living our life in reaction to our stress of the moment. Nerves that attach through the spinal cord into the brain, connect every cell of the body. Tension in this main cable network creates tension in the body tissues. The brain continues to perceive life defensively, and produces stress chemicals that inhibit the ability to pay attention, internally, to the “incomplete” energy or “unfinished business.”

Through gentle contacts along the neck and lower spine, (where the spinal cord attaches inside the vertebral column), called Network adjustments or Entrainments, greater body awareness is achieved. The body moves away from defense and towards growth. The brain becomes aware of the spine, which is a main conduit of consciousness, the coordinator of body function, and a proposed location of the subconscious mind. Our posture, spinal alignment, and tension patterns all reflect our emotional reactions to our perceived world.

Most of us remain in defense throughout our lives, and the higher more evolved brain does not have the opportunity to develop its unique properties and evolve new strategies for experiencing and responding to life.

When at peace, the internal growth “programs” can be switched on because the body does not need to protect itself from injury. It can then assess if our reactions, adaptations and symptoms are appropriate or not. We can feel more profoundly and use subtle information within to make healthier choices. We can activate “internal software” for experiencing life, changing our course, and for healing. Our brain can pay attention to the body’s tension patterns, its spinal alignment, its posture and its current state.

In order to fix something we must first be able to find it.

As our brain is better able to inventory the body, it can better orchestrate healing. This naturally occurs as NSA care progresses and the individual not only becomes aware of spinal tension patterns, vertebral motion and respiration, but also the energetic motion through the body. Natural outcomes of Network Care include this awareness and even the self-regulation of spinal tension and alignment.

For those people who have the greatest wounds, or stresses and traumas in life, they may tap stored tension or blocked energy through NSA care, to develop the statistically greatest positive changes in wellness. This is part of the “stress busting” effect demonstrated in Network care. This can be interpreted to suggest that the greater the wound, the greater the gift potential. That is, if new strategies can be developed to access the internal store house of energy for healing. This is what appears to happen in NSA care.

The NSA practitioner seeks to promote new strategies for your spine and nervous system so that you can be more effective at being well. The spinal assessments the doctor makes are matched with your personal health and wellness inventory. By allowing the practitioner’s expertise, and your ability to heal to join, you can celebrate the wellness that is available to you... even in the presence of disease.
