Hi Lawrence

Many thanks for your email. I ordered (and received) the downloadable version. After just one session with Lesson 1, I am seeing benefits and look forward to completing the lessons and getting on to maintenance with The Cat Stretch each day.

Please feel free to reference the blog as this has literally been life changing for me.

Dear Mr. Gold,

I have watched the videos (both 12, and 17 minute programs) and have been doing the exercises for two days now. The relief is nothing short of amazing. I haven't even gotten around to using the bonus material and the pain in my back and the related pain in my rear and left leg is almost completely gone. I've tried lots of exercises and other things in the past, but nothing has worked as well as these simple movement patterns. Thank you very much for making these materials available.

in 2001 I had a horse rear up and tip over backwards folding me up like a bill fold , breaking L3 and L4 and pinching my spinal cord just hard enough for my legs to be paralyzed for a period of time (a few hours). They were cracked and not displaced. After 4 days, when I asked the doc if I was going to walk again, he could not say. Make a long story short, I am walking. The break is not what hurt. It was the resulting muscle spasms. No one can tell me I have weak back muscles. Reading what you say" the thousand natural shocks flesh is heir to" sounds like a life story for my back.

Last June was the last time my back spasm'd. Onto the floor and couldn't walk because of the severe pain associated with the spasm. When I managed to get to the computer I did a search on back muscle spasms and I came across your site. I implemented the emergency back pain procedure you have and instead of 3 days without doing hardly anything, it was down to about 3 hours. Needless to say, I am impressed. It still took a few days before I got a lot of strength back because I felt the muscles were totally fatigued because of the spasm they just went through.

Since that time, when I feel the muscles starting to tighten up over a period of time I implement the same exercises and have been able to ward off any spasm.

photos of Craig Fink I am here today because recently, a friend of my [s.i.c.] is having some pretty severe back problems and he's already been to a doctor who tells him there is nothing wrong with his joints or bones. Therefore I referred him to your site.

A GENTLY INTENSIVE RESULTS GUARANTEED PROGRAM FOR LASTING IMPROVEMENT

NOTE:
If you have low back pain or unequal leg length you need to prepare with The Cat Stretch program -- included in the "packaged" total program.

ALL MOST PEOPLE NEED:
You've found a more comfortable, more lasting way to free your own psoas muscles.

This program is for you if you've been told that you have tight psoas muscles, they're painful to deep touch or at your groin, and if therapy has been partially and temporarily effective; if you've found that doing stretches to free psoas muscles reach only the more surface muscles but not the psoas muscles, or trigger "rebound" contractions that are as bad or worse than what you had before.

I show you and guide you, in clear and simple steps, through somatic exercises that bring you progressively to ease and improve your core integration. As the typical result of each exercise cycle, you will feel more relaxed, longer through the legs and hips, and lighter.

The gentle, well-organized somatic exercises of this program fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. They awaken your ability to control your psoas muscles and improve their natural coordination with the rest of your muscular system for better balance, smoother movement, and better core integration. See the right side of this page for a link to a full video preview of the program.

You can do this.
All it takes is to do it.

    I have had body pain for years. The most agitated area seemed to be my lower back and right hip. My right hip area was basically drawn up and tight. I've tried different things over the years (going to a chiropractor more often than anything). I would get adjusted, feel better and then start the road to decline on as soon as the second or third day after adjustment. I ordered a DVD exercise from this site for the hip area. photo of Jeanie TillmanAfter the first lesson I could feel a difference, later on I felt a muscle in my groin/stomach area release, and my right hip relax to a large degree. After each lesson, I felt better and better. The greatest thing I noticed is that, instead of feeling better and then my body starting to decline, my body did not start the decline phase. Not everything is perfect yet with me, but the areas that released stayed that way. I even feel a difference in other areas of my body like my back, neck, legs. I still want to get more lessons/DVD from the Lawrence Gold site for my back and neck. The lessons to take a bit of trial and error to understand the moves. It can be frustrating, but stick with it because it will be worth it when you're feeling better. I can't remember a time when my was feeling this good...

    Re: update: Hanna Somatics Gold -- Free Yourself from Back Pain AND Free your Psoas

    Lawrence: I started the exercises last Sunday, and am ready to go onto to the second one, Slide and Turn. My massage therapist brought this muscle to my attention, and your wesbite came up in relation to the psoas (memebers of my family have never heard of this muscle!)

    I can already feel a difference, and look forward to my MT being able to feel a difference as well. I'm working with this in relation to spasming rectal and sphincter muscles (proctalgia fugax) and it is helping me loosen up. Thank you so much!

    Hello,

    I found your youtube video "Free Your Psoas: Slide & Turn, INTRO - Psoas Muscle Pain Self-Relief" amazingly effective. A little backgroud: I have had tightness and pain for many years (I'm 35) for which I have taken personal responsibility to alieviate through self awarness and excercise. Thus I was brought to your video. I grew up with tension in my house, and have found myself stuck in "fight or flight" ever since.

    Upon doing this simple exercise, my normally painful and tight right gluteals and psoas were instantly more mobile. I have tried for 20 years to get that effect to no avail. I then took a 3 hour walk around Tokyo (where I live currently) and I immediately noticed that I walked with a more upright posture. My torso was not bent forward, but erect, and my hips stayed forward throughout my stride. The next morning, my gluteals on both sides, sacrum, and psoas were quite sore, so I know something changed.

    I have studied alot of anatomy and methodology for helping myself. And, I have found alot or misinformation and snake oil. Your video was effective.

    Hi, Ive been donig the psoas exercises and my back is soooooooo much improved. Thanks. My biking and hiking is much better, and I don't get back aches or pinches anymore.

    Yesterday and today I completed a few more of the psoas exercises, which opened me up considerably. I am impressed. The halo this afternoon was a near euphoric release.

    Thanks, Thomas

    Hello Dr. Gold,

    [NOTE from Lawrence Gold: I am not a doctor, though some people presume that I am; I am a somatic educator. These feedback messages are presented as received, including typographical errors.]

    photo of Andrew Seymour I didnt anticipate such a long email, please just respond whenever you have the time. I have been working with your "Freeing the Psoas" program for about 6 weeks now and have to tell you it really has done wonders. It has really opened up the groin muscles and is way more effective than the stretching I was doing months ago. The help with yoga and pilates was marginal compared to this.

    An unintended result of this program was a realignment of my right foot. 10 years ago I almost shattered my right kneecap as a result of a snowboarding injury. It has always splayed far to the right (likely contributing to the achilles tendinitis on my right foot). It is easy to spot in photos. Without being conscious of it, it has significantly realigned to its natural straight position (although it still feels a bit "unnatural" and I am having to remind myself this is how I should walk. So I wanted to say thanks and this program is well suited for my needs.
