At the Body mind Expo, I attended a workshop, Spinal Mobility, a whole body approach. Wasn’t sure exactly who Dr Eric Cobb was or what approach this session would take but ‘a whole body approach’ sounded functional and well, sensible.
Z-Health focuses on the nervous system: the ultra-high speed network that controls muscles, heart, AND lungs.
Created by Dr. Eric Cobb, Z-Health’s nervous system-based exercise program explains how to:
Eliminate your pain (often instantaneously) even if you’ve been told you’ll have to “live with it” for the rest of your life.
Perform at your best as an athlete.
Learn the key pieces of the training puzzle that have been holding you back.
Enhance your health, energy, and vitality.
Discover how to move and live with maximum energy on a daily basis.
Prevent injuries.
That is the website talking, for me I observed my flexibility in flexion and rotation improve dramatically after undertaking the drills taught and it alleviated the pain in my left shoulder that had been lingering for a year or two, and I am still pain free today. Surprising and really exciting!
See the FAQ page for answers to some questions that may be brewing within. These two paragraphs summarise some of the ideas Eric applies,
In almost every case, musculoskeletal pain is the result of a body-wide movement problem. To show you the path to pain relief, Z-Health® takes a whole-body approach to identifying and fixing your movement problems. Fixing these movement problems creates amazingly fast, long-lasting changes, eliminating your pain and maximizing your performance.
For example, if your low back pain is actually caused by your fallen arches, Z-Health will give you pain-relief techniques for your lower back, as well as unique, powerful, fast-acting exercises to correct your foot problems. If, on the other hand, your lower back problem is coming from your stiff neck and bad posture, Z-Health will give you exercises to correct those issues instead.
We obviously only lightly touched on the work in a two hour workshop, but we all felt it warranted further investigation and enticed the staff we met Eric, Kathy, Lea and Zachariah to come to Australia and bring their certification training our way. Stay posted on that one.
