Susie lives in New Jersey, and was referred to me by a colleague. She had a bone against bone condition in her knee (the cartilage had worn away) which surgery had not been able to help. (While she is mobile, since walking is painful, she finds it more convenient to use her wheelchair at work). I began to work with her over the phone. The day after her first session, she got out of her wheelchair. She was surprised that she was able to do this without pain. But she overdid it, and the pain came back. She continued to improve as I worked with her over the phone for another 7 sessions. For the eigth session, we met face to face. I recommended that she also go to a local physician who had helped her in the past with certain injections. At the end of the eighth session, she said to me, “I came to you with a bad knee, and you gave me a new life.” After her ninth session, she said that it was if her bone-on-bone condition had never existed. I spoke with her months later and she was still doing...

In 2005, “B.F.” (not his real initials), who I know, calls me to say that he is scheduled to have an angioplasty in two weeks for a partially blocked artery and asked me if there was something I could do for him. I worked with him that night, and then again two weeks later, the night before the angioplasty. After the second session he said to me that he felt a “release”. I told him to call me the next morning and I would work with him over the phone to prep him for the procedure and then to call me back after the procedure was over. He called me from the hospital while he was waiting to go in, and we had the first session. Then I said, “in a few hours, after the procedure, when you are in the recovery room, call me and I will work on you some more.” Within an hour, I get a call back. I say, “why so soon?”. B.F. told me that they did another angiogram before the scheduled angioplasty, and discovered that there was no blockage, so they sent me...

I get a call Friday while I am in a health food store in Baltimore. I pick up and a lady from New York says that she heard about me from a friend, and that she would like me to help her with her panic attacks. Though she is medicated with the most advanced drugs on the market to date, she said she still has panic attacks that lasted sometimes 3 hours, and she asks me to help. She also wants me to work with her daughter. I say that I would call her on Sunday to set up a time for the following week, when I would be back in New York. Now, what I am about to say is very important, because I do pretty much the same thing with everyone in terms of a general procedure for opening up blocks. This woman asks me for some homework, anything that she could do over Shabbos and on Sunday, until we would talk again and schedule her appointment. While she is still on the phone, I do what I do and look into her particular situation and open up some general blocks for her, and give her some homework to do. Now, what is amazing to me is that when I called her on Sunday to set up a time for the appointment, she says, “what did you do to me?”. I ask her what she means. She says that on Shabbos (Saturday) morning, she started to have one of those long panic attacks, which typically last for a few hours. “I don’t know what you did, but...

I recently worked on a doctor of internal medicine. He came to me for a session, saying he is a healthy skeptic but was sufficiently intrigued by what I do. At the end of the first session, I asked him how he felt and if he noticed any differences. He said he felt fine but didn’t experience anything appreciably noteworthy. The next day he called me. He said, “I’ve got to tell you what happened. In terms of my feelings and what I notice about how I operate [no pun intended], I feel about the same. However, there was a dramatic change in my handwriting. I frequently do crossword puzzles, and, as you can imagine, I have the typical doctors handwriting – it looks like chicken scratches. Today, my handwring looks like it is out of a typewriter.” That’s dramatic. What does this mean? Many people subscribe to the efficacy or the diagnostic validity of graphology. There have been numerous studies indicating that if you change your handwriting, it also affects your personality (see the book Change Your Handwriting – Change Your Life, and others). Obviously, there was some kind of profound change in this doctor, as reflected in his...

I met Avi’s wife, who is a physician, while they were on Sabbatical in the United States from Israel. She came to me with an interest in various modes of alternative healing. I explained what it is that I do. She thought that perhaps she could learn some new techniques that she could take back with her to Israel. A few months after we met, she called me one day, mentioning that her daughter had developed tremendous wrist pain, and with almost no movement. Her husband was doing research at Johns Hopkins, and she had gone to the best doctors there, but they were unable to reduce the pain and get her wrist back to a full range of movement. She asked me if I could help. I said to bring her over. What she had required only 20 minutes of work. We parted and I said “call me with good news”. About a month later, she called me and said that her daughter’s wrist had regained 95% of its movement and that the pain was gone. The physicians at Hopkins said that whatever was there is still there, but they had no explanation of how the daughter says that there is no pain and that she can now move her wrist. I don’t remember how long it was after that, but at some point, the girl’s mother called me to tell me that her daughter’s wrist had totally healed. This encounter later led her husband to do a research project with me at Hopkins, which is the topic of another...
