NETWORK CARE = NETWORK SPINAL ANALYSIS + SOMATO RESPIRATORY INTEGRATION (12 Stages of Healing)

What is Network Spinal Analysis (NSA)?




NSA was first developed in the early 80's by Dr. Donald Epstein.  Like all of
Chiropractic, NSA focuses on the nervous system, which is your brain, spinal
cord and all the nerves that control all functions in the body and determine how
you perceive reality.  However, NSA is very different from traditional
chiropractic and is much more evolved and advanced than most forms practiced
today.



When the body experiences a physical, emotional, or chemical stress that it
cannot handle, it is shunted to the organs and tissues and stored as trauma.
 The body then takes on a DEFENSE POSTURE, and physical degeneration, poor
adaptation to stress, poor lifestyle choices and decrease in overall wellness
and life enjoyment occur.  Life is then perceived as a survival issue rather
then an opportunity for growth and evolution.



In NSA, we make gentle contacts applied at SPINAL GATEWAYS, associated with the
brain/body shifting from defense posture to that of expansion, resulting in
better ability to make constructive choices for one's body, emotions and life.



In NSA, we look for BREATH and MOVEMENT to determine how well the body is
responding.  These both happen organically as WAVES through the body and when
they occur, health and wellness exponentially increase. The RESPIRATORY WAVE is
the first wave to develop in your body and occurs when the breath is fully
present in all parts of your spine.  It helps you connect more fully with your
body and releases current or surface stress.  The second type of wave is the
SOMATOPSYCHIC WAVE, and is an undulation of the entire spine and/or oscillation
and connection of two spinal gateways, in a figure 8 type of motion.  It is a
highly evolved response by the nervous system, and helps bring up trauma from
deep places, transforming it into energy to be used by the body to heal. The
somatopsychic wave serves to 'destabilize the armor' between different parts of
yourself, helping to retrieve those parts that have been traumatized, alienated,
abused or unaccepted.



Later in care the somatopsychic wave moves from the spine into the heart,
physically and emotionally expanding the chest cavity and breaking down barriers
between ourselves and the rest of the world.  We can then be more aligned with
our deepest soul's purpose and be able to fully express the essence of our true
selves- PEACE, CONNECTION, GRATITUDE, JOY AND LOVE.



NSA is utilized by thousands of practitioners around the world and had been
studied in several major universities both in the United States and
internationally for its dramatic and impressive health and wellness
contributions.  Research, in conjunction with noted neurobiologists, at the
Medical College at the University of California- Irvine, studied almost 3,000
people receiving Network Care across the USA, Australia, Canada, and Puerto
Rico.  The study found that Network Care is associated with statistically
 significant improvement in people's Health Related Quality of Life.  People
report sweeping, across the board positive outcomes relative to their:  Physical
 Well-Being, Stress Levels, Emotional and Psychological Well-Being, Life
Enjoyment, Lifestyle Changes, and Overall Quality of Life.




What is Somato Respiratory Integration (SRI)?

SRI is a means of gaining the wisdom and secrets withheld from your body/mind
through the use of your own hands, breath, and movement.  It is an unparalleled 
tool for personal healing and empowerment.



The purpose of SRI is to help you heal more effectively through connecting with
the rhythm of your appropriate stage of healing.  Each stage of the healing
process has its own rhythm, and no one stage is 'better' than another. They are
simply pieces of creating a greater whole, to more successfully allow you to 
heal.  We receive the gift of each stage when we can fully become AWARE of,
ACKNOWLEDGE and ACCEPT that stage.

The exercises may be performed during a Netwok Adjustment session in the office,
or they may be given to do on your own at home.  They will assist individuals in
 progression through the NSA Levels of Care. The exercises are easy for anyone of 
any age and may be comfortably performed just about anywhere.  It is a dynamic
 system to truly allow more effective integration of your body/mind.



SRI was developed by Dr. Donald Epstein, and is based on the 12 Stages of
Healing described in "The 12 Stages of Healing: A Network Approach to Wholeness"
book, written by Dr. Epstein, which is available at Hidden Springs Wellness
Center.
