The Healing Journey of NSA

Network Spinal Analysis measures Phases, Stages, Levels, and the Biofields.  What does this look like in a person’s life?  Let’s take a deeper dive!

“John” is experiencing the physical symptom of daily headaches.  In the physical biofield (meaning the energetic field very close to the body), the headache feels life-threatening.  This moves John’s whole being into Stage 1 of suffering.  A dialogue for John may look like, “When is this ever going to end?”  The rhythm of Stage 1 is “this headache has to stop.”  John may try the typical avenue of trying medications to “cure” the headache as his mindset is that he needs to “fix” the problem.  When that doesn’t work and he starts to worry that he is creating more side-effects from the drugs, he decides to take up his friend’s suggestion of trying Body In Balance (BIB) to help him find out the true cause of the headaches.  John’s stage of healing is now in Stage 2…. “I must find the cure!”  When John starts care at BIB, his goal is to fix his headaches.  

Through testing at BIB, we find misalignment and dysfunction at the C1 vertebra (first vertebra below the occiput/skull).  In the analysis system we use in Network Spinal Analysis (NSA), this is called Phase 2 patterning.  Phase 2 indicates dysfunction at C1 on a physical level, and is associated with the emotional patterning of fear of how things will unfold or work out, as well as the overwhelming feeling of, “how will everything get done?”  
As we start to apply consistent Level 1 (Discover Care) NSA adjustments to the spine, John’s headaches start to diminish.  He isn’t as stressed about all of the things on his schedule (he is developing a deeper trust in how things will unfold).  He can breathe and sleep better!  John is more relaxed and notices that he is recovering from long work weeks.  His workouts are so much better!  His thought process is, “Wow—this NSA stuff is amazing.”  John thinks about how he was getting headaches every day and now, he doesn’t get them.  NSA has cured the headaches!  NSA is his magic pill—so John continues care because it fixed his headache and he doesn’t want to start getting them ever again (John continues to Stage 2 thinking).

As John’s body gains Level 2 (Transform Care) strategies, his body starts shifting at a much deeper level.  John’s body starts to make deeper corrections of the spine as we start to work on the chronic, underlying problems.  Level 2 NSA adjustments build tension in the spine to create these deeper shifts.  As muscular tension builds, emotional tension builds.  Adjustments work in the emotional biofield.  As movement in the spine increases, we move into the mental biofield.  It’s been 6 months since John has a had a headache—but now, he has a headache.  John’s thought process is that we need to fix the headache because that’s what has always happened—and why, all of a sudden, is he now getting a headache?  
John feels that because he is getting adjusted, he should never deal with another headache again.  It doesn’t matter that he drinks 5 cups of coffee a day!  John gets his NSA adjustment and the headache goes away (Level 2 strategies to build tension for a purpose but dissipate tension quickly), but now as he thinking about it (stronger mental biofield connection, higher Level 2/Transform care), he realizes that his headaches happen when he is at work.  John is even able to pinpoint that he gets headaches when he is doing specific tasks at work or when he is spending time with a specific person at work.  

Now that John is more connected to his mental realm, he can see the situations that cause him headaches.  He is grateful for NSA care because it has helped him relate his headaches to the world around him and what is causing his stress so he can make better choices.  This ties in with the (3,000 people studied) study on NSA demonstrating how as people heal, they make healthier choices to honor themselves and their health.  Studies also indicate better resiliency as well as adaptability of the nervous system.    

Now John is able to look at his behavior and decide to make healthier choices: “I’m going to cut my coffee consumption in half!”  “I’m not going to eat lunch with Joe anymore because when I eat with Joe, I get a headache!”  As John continues to receive care, he awakens to his connection to himself.  He starts to have more rhythm and complexity to his full spinal motion (the highly researched Somato-Psychic Wave).  When he gets a headache, he realizes that it’s not about the work stress and it’s not about Joe, who he had been eating lunch with—the deeper issue is that he isn’t really being authentic at work.  John not being his true self is causing the stress within his being that is the deepest incongruence between how he is living his life and who he truly is.  John decides to work on enhancing his connection to his true self.  As time passes, with NSA care, John’s spine works better and better.  He heals better, functions better, and his sense of wellbeing continues to grow; as the research demonstrates, there is no cap on how well you can be!

When we are performing your adjustments, we are observing the physiological strategies your nervous system is gaining through applications of the Levels of Care during your adjustment.  We are observing how your Phases shift and you become more adaptable in your dominant patterning.  We watch your body let go of stress physiology and HEAL.  We watch how you gain a greater range of emotion and move through Stages of Healing.  We watch how your body becomes more in-tune with its environment through physiological awareness of the biofields.  It is fascinating and such an HONOR to be a part of your journey.  It is with the deepest gratitude that we get to be a part of your healing path.
