Canberra's Day Spa - Atlasprofilax Testimonials

Hi Ben

Unfortunately I will not be in town on those dates however I have a massage booked with Kirsty Sherritt for next week. The treatment that I received was really life changing. I have regained so much movement with the my neck / head & my arms can now reach to the middle of my back to scratch it. I have been headache free for 24 days which is amazing. I am sleeping so much better & now only wake up once or twice a night not 6 or 7. I have told as many people as possible about this treatment & most people have heard about this & in a positive way. Please pass on my many many many thanks to Gina.

Dear Gina,

I just wanted to let you know that since I had the Atlasprofilax done I feel like a new person.

When I walked through your door some weeks ago, I was on the verge an emotional breakdown due to pain that I had been suffering in my right leg and hip for about 8 weeks. I had just had enough and was at my wits end. I could barely walk and just getting out of the car was always such a struggle. I had tried everything but to no avail (innersoles, new joggers, wearing an elasticised leg support, anti-inflammatories, nurofen etc) . I was struggling to walk and my husband had to help me put on my socks and shoes most mornings.

There are three flights of stairs to my office (no lift) and I would dread having to go up and down them each day. I felt more like 70 years old than 50 years old.

During one of my lymphatic drainage appointments (which by the way also worked wonders for fluid retention) you mentioned the Atlas treatment and asked me to consider it.

I went home and did a great deal of research for a week or so and spoke to two other people who had the Atlas treatment done by you, one being my elder sister. Everything I read about the treatment made such sense and it seemed to good to be true. Anyway, I turned up for the treatment, I was desperate for some pain relief and I was very focused on having the treatment done especially after all the research I had done. I was in a very positive frame of mind that it was going to work and it did.

After the treatment which was absolutely painless my head felt so light and the movement in my neck was greatly improved. Reversing out of the driveway is so much easier as I am now able to turn my neck much further. Following the Atlas treatement you did a corrective massage and then I had an infra red sauna. When I left that day I walked out the door in a totally opposite condition to when I walked in.

I had the treatment done on the Friday and when I returned to work on the Monday, I actually jogged up the stairs. Everyone at work was astounded because they were aware of the condition that I had been in for all those weeks. I am now having corrective massage done by Angelina on a regular basis and she does an absolutely fantastic job.

I can't stop raving about the treatment and whenever someone mentions they have a migraine or a this or a that I give them the booklet to read. To think that I was in such pain that I thought I needed a hip replacement. Oh, I also used to suffer from muscle spasms, leg cramps and especially a burning sensation under my shoulder blades if I stood for too long. I can honestly say that I haven't had any of these since the treatment.

I spent nearly all Saturday cooking meals for my Mum and it was the longest that I have been able to stand without the pain under my shoulder blades in years. I have also noticed that I am much more balanced when I walk, before the treatment I was walking a bit like a crab!

Thanks so much Gina you really know your stuff!

This treatment has been a lifesaver. I was in constant pain. I did not sleep well, could not sit for long periods, exercise meant days of the pain shifting around. Neck, shoulder, back, hips, sciatica, muscle spasms, you name it.

I tried a well-respected physiotherapist who gave me exercises for my core strength and a lecture on “letting myself go”.

I was diligent on the exercises and they probably helped but still had to suffer the ongoing neck, shoulder, and hip pain.

I was at my wits end thinking if this is how I felt at 41 how was I going to feel at 51 or 61. I also felt the specialists (doctor, physio) were missing something. However I was made to feel silly when I suggested this to the physio.

I was gradually melting down both physically and emotionally. Then I met a lady who told me about the Atlas correction. I can’t thank her enough.

Even from the first few minutes after the treatment I knew I had found the answer to my problems.

The relief was immense. (And every day since I have got better and stronger and healthier.)

I am walking and incorporating some pilates and muscle strengthening moves into my day, everyday.

Slowly but surely I feel my body is unwinding, or turning around or coming out of some dark place that was constant pain. I can’t find the right words to describe the change but it is real. The only pain I have now is from over doing it some days.

Before the AtlasPROfilax treatment and Corrective Massage treatment my hips were out of line, which caused pain when running or doing exercise. I also had a sore lower back.

Since having the treatment I no longer have lower back pain. My running style is a lot different; my stride has lengthened and I run more upright and with ease.

Things have been going well since the Atlas PROfilax treatment in January, I wanted to wait a couple of months to see if the relief I have been feeling would wear off !! ..Great news…it hasn’t worn off at all, it just gets better. As you know I used to visit the chiropractor on a regular basis with lower neck pain, which caused strong headaches and an ongoing left rotated hip problem, which was the reminder of playing golf once a week, after many adjustments, it was very persistent and never went away.

Since having the treatment, along with regular exercise and massage …I feel fantastic. I haven’t visited my chiropractor since January (it’s now March), am playing golf twice a week and haven’t had any hip problems at all. My neck pain has gone, on occasion, if I get slight pain, it’s a matter of stretching the muscles and exercising the area gently …it then fixes itself. In general, I have so much more movement, lots more energy as I am more active and have lost a few kilos as a result. One other thing I find really amazing is that I feel more balanced, my shoulders are square and my bra straps stay on, whereas before the right one would always slip off and my periods are still regular, but not as painful as previously and not as heavy!! I love it

It’s only been 2 weeks since my atlas has been adjusted but those two weeks have been fantastic!

I feel like I have a whole new lease on life and many of my work colleagues have noticed a change in me as well! I’ve earned myself the nickname “giggles” at work now because I’m always smiling. That’s saying a lot given I work 10 hours in a very stressful job!

I’m amazed at the results, at 23years of age I was looking a pretty bleak future of constant chiropractic manipulations, medication for anxiety/depression and constant injuries. Since being in a car accident in 2003, my left shoulder was always limiting and tender (I had written it off as the best it could be) causing headaches every time I slept on it and since injuring my right shoulder I was always struggling to sleep. Coupled with the 13 abnormalities in my spine, I figured I probably wouldn’t be able to live without painkillers for the rest of my life.

Within a week of getting my atlas aligned and the corrective massage, I was playing cricket with my fiancées family, with relatively no pain (except aching in my little used muscles). And I was astounded. Up until then, I had been nursing a shoulder injury for 9 months and was looking at getting a second steroid injection to reduce the pain! I can now sleep on both my right and my left shoulder without waking up with a headache. It’s fantastic, and I no longer have the shoulder pain in the day

The most amazing thing about this treatment is, prior to it, I was on a daily dose of anxiety/depression medication. I had tried to get off it but my shoulder pain would worsen every time I tried, I felt reliant and I was putting on weight at an alarming rate. I am no longer taking my medication. I have had no withdrawals, I haven’t felt the need to take the medication and my anxiety symptoms like; hot flushes and shaking when confronted at work are GONE. For all those anxiety sufferers out there... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

This treatment has given me my life back. I’m glad I stopped being so sceptical and got it done.

Hi Gina,

I have been going to write an email for quite a while now but i keep forgetting, because i have been very busy doing things i couldnt do before the Atlas treatment.

It must have been about June or July when i came in and it was about a month before i noticed that i hadnt had a sore neck or back in quite some time, i was away for work sleeping in hotel beds with dodgy pillows for this whole time as well.

Since then i have started doing boot camp 3 days a week, playing football and a whole lot of other physical exercise, i was unable to do this much activity for the last 6 or 7 years (I am only 28!).

I am being very hard on my body and i just keep bouncing back, i no longer have a stiff neck for weeks at a time. Sure i still get sore muscles in my back and neck from the work and exercise that i do, but with some regular stretching and a few massages thrown in hear and there it rarely lasts more than a day.

I can say that my back and neck is in the best shape it has been in since i finished school, thats 10 years.

Thanks a lot, i have also recommended the treatment to a couple of my friends.

Since my Atlas treatment I have been amazed and surprised everyday at the changes I notice in my body. Migraine headaches, which I suffered from for years have gone- at times I will have a pain in my head and think, oh no, but then it’s gone.

Lower back is so much better, only little niggles and then they’re gone, the same with sciatica.

Left know no longer has the burning pain which kept me awake and almost in tears. My feet no longer crack when I get out of bed in the morning- as a matter of fact my feet are no longer sore- wow! During mini camp (a mini pony club) I wore a pair of boots that really had the balls of my feet burning and sore when preciously worn. For four days I wore them and then suddenly realised my feet were warm but not sore and burning. How glad I was/am!

I can sleep on my tummy with my arms over my head and right shoulder doesn’t freeze up and is not painful plus my hands don’t go to sleep. Had a problem with my left hand with the middle finger locking down when I clenched my fist. I would have to lift that finger up with right hand and it would click. Now I can’t do my clicky finger trick for the grandchildren.

To sit on the floor with my knees bent and ankles crossed was not possible for me prior to the Atlas treatment. I find that not only can I do this but also squatting down is not a problem.

Now, Gina, I am just so amazed that such a small thing can help our bodies in so many ways. The freedom of movement I feel is great. Walking, bending, running, skipping, kicking ball, all this is so much easier now. Before I put it all down to age creeping on but now I know that is not so. Sadly, the one thing it hasn’t helped is my memory (this I’m joking about)

I have told so many people about this treatment. You know, I wish they could have been in my body to experience my discomforts then and experience the difference now. I find it hardto explain but realise it is hard to change people’s minds when they are so sceptical.

For me, I am so glad that I have had the Atlas treatment as my life from day to day is much more comfortable and easy.

I’ve suffered from neck and shoulder stiffness for a long time. When Gina suggested I try the Atlas treatment I was skeptical but after having half a dozen back and neck massages which didn’t have a long term effect, I was willing to give it a go.

The treatment didn’t take very long and wasn’t painful at all. As soon as it was finished I felt “lighter”, my muscles weren’t tight any more and I could lie on my stomach without my back getting stiff. The next day I felt well for the first time in ages and my memory had improved! Hard to believe that such a small thing could make such a difference.

Having attended Gina’s Human Tuning facilities for a while, I was telling Gina how I was having trouble/pain in my back, neck and was having trouble sleeping. Gina then told me how she was introducing at new treating called AtlasPROFilax. After reading some material about the treatment I thought I would give it a go.

My symptoms were, pain and discomfort between the shoulder blades which I would regularly see a chiropractor about. The pain I would experience would sometimes make me upset with frustration, because here I was seeking treatment but it was only temporary. Irregular sleeping pattern, at night I would wake up with pins and needles in my hands or my back would be sore. My work at the time required me to be standing a lot as well as walking; I didn’t get much time to sit down. I also played sport and went to the gym. As a result of this and how I was feeling I would receive a massage twice a month to try and help me. While having a massage one time I mentioned that I was going to have this treatment. My masseuse was quite excited because she have read about the treatment and also recommended it.

When I made the booking it was August 2007, Gina was very informative and reassuring that the treatment would help. She made sure I understood everything associated with the treatment and made me feel very comfortable. The first thing I noticed when Gina had finished was a feeling of being balanced. I was sitting in a chair and looking straight ahead when I had this feeling; it was as tho my head was now sitting straight. It is now May 2008 and I have not been to the chiropractor about my back, because I no longer have the pain between my shoulder blades and neck. I also started to sleep much better and it is a deep sleep that I get. I no longer wake up still feeling tied. I have more energy and seem happy overall within myself. I have noticed smaller symptoms that I had like; fluid retention is not as bad as it use to be.

These results did not happen for me overnight, they have been happening over a period of months, but I must say that I have not felt this good for a long time. I recommended the treatment to a friend of mine, and her and her husband both had the treatment and both are happy with the result they have experienced.

I would recommend this treatment to anyone who is feeling pain and discomfort for whatever reason. I also highly recommend that you have this treatment at Gina’s Human Tuning because of the understanding and genuine care you receive.

Hi Gina,

Before I had the ATLAS procedure done, I: -

- Constantly had a “tight” neck which at times, caused headaches;
- There were always “lumps” to massage out;
- Once I felt the tightness start – I needed to act on it straight away, otherwise I would be in pain with my neck ( a “crick” neck) for the next day or 2; and
- I could not turn my head to the left or right very far at all. I had trouble looking around, especially when I was reversing in the car – this process actually hurt!

Since the ATLAS treatment, all of these symptoms have completely disappeared – it is amazing! It has made my outlook on going to sleep, etc, much better. I can easily turn my head in the car (both ways) and am constantly amazed at how far I can turn my neck in many situations!
I wake up with no stiffness or pain!!

I should have had the ATLAS treatment done years ago!

As usual, the staff at Gina’s Human Tuning were sensational. Gina was so informed and professional – what helped was her total belief in the whole process. I found the video informative and in non-therapeutic terms, so I could really understand the concept! (without being a physiological expert).

Thank-you Gina for educating me about this fantastic process.

I feel as if there has been a release of tension in my neck and upper back and I hae less pain due to TMJ

I feel really good and happy, like something big has shifted and released.

I am looking forward to seeing how my body holds up with no Chiropractor for a while as I was seeing a Chiropractor regularly; I would love to never have to go back

Thank you I feel fantastic!

Just a quick note to say how fantastic it is to have my head turn and look over my shoulder when riding my bike, even my balance is better when turning, the extra range of motion and a lighter helmut is great. Also my squats in the gym have improved enormously, I had a sticking point before that has now become stronger, my back is not compensating and wobbling about.

Every few weeks for as long as I can remember a headache would begin at my left temple, continue across my head, down into my neck, shoulders and upper back. My hips would go out of alignment and I would begin a 12hour session of debilitating vomiting and, on occasion, diarrhoea. I always knew the outcome once the headache began. It didn't matter whether I had been sitting at my desk all day, walking, going to the gym: the cause was unknown. Medicos suggested hormonal issues, stress, any number of things, but deep down I knew this was not the case.

A trip to the osteopath if I caught it early enough (and was able to travel) helped but never solved the problem. My hips were always jumping out of alignment and I "crabbed", with my right pelvis forward of my left. This was diagnosed by a biomechanics sports trainer and I am grateful to him for his expertise which started me further thinking of basic structural alignment issues, much like the wheels of a car being misaligned. I was having shiatsu massage as well, and this relieved the symptoms for a short time. I always felt as though my right hip was in the wrong place and needed to be removed and replaced backwards of its location - a very uncomfortable feeling.
The muscles around my left knee were very tight and sore, as was my inner right thigh, to the point that I had difficulty rising from a chair and walking straight away.

I had been to Gina's for massage quite spasmodically over recent years and for some reason I checked her website again in March this year. The Atlas realignment grabbed my attention and, on reading the Atlas website I recognised all my symptoms, including lethargy, sinus issues and inner ear problems.
So, I booked in for treatment two days later and the rest, as they say, is history.

I am doing yoga, including shoulder stands, which is something I would never have attempted. Pre-Atlas I would have developed tight and sore shoulders (one side much more than the other) after any strong exercise and needed to go to the osteo to relieve this. Now, there is no pain, just the sensation of having exercised muscles well, and both sides of my body feel the effort to the same degree.
I can't remember the last time I had a headache, my left knee and inner thigh muscles are now pain free and I am needing to wear my reading glasses less and less.
My lower back gives me no discomfort whatsoever and I am sleeping much better, waking refreshed and with no shoulder discomfort as previously experienced.

The Atlas treatment is amazingly simple and non-invasive and life changing. I feel human again!

Thank you so much Gina.

Before the treatment I experienced continual stiffness, limited movement and ‘clunking’ in my neck. These have all gone since the treatment and the mobility of my neck has increased.

I had underlying pain on most days due to the osteoarthritis in my neck. My neck was also stiff and I had very limited mobility both sideways and backwards and forwards. I haven’t needed any anti-inflammatory medication or painkillers. I didn’t take a lot of these anyway, maybe only once a month but I haven’t even needed that. My mobility has improved and my stiffness has eased.

Neither of us have had a Chiro appointment since the treatment.

We were both sceptical about the treatment, but we both thought we really didn’t have anything to loose apart from money. Gina made sure at all times that we were informed of what was going to happen and why things were being done. The service was friendly and professional at all times and any questions I had were answered openly and honestly. We have now decided to have our sons have the treatment.

Before my Atlasprofilax my body suffered a lot from general stiffness. I have actually had a knee replacement in my right leg and my knee in my left leg was letting me down more and more with pain and stiffness. I had also been having a lot of trouble with indigestion and being a bit breathless when massaging people.

Four months after the Atlas my body is a lot more flexible. I am able to walk long distances now without feeling pain. Also my right knee
is not giving me much trouble at all. The indigestion has mostly gone. I only feel it occasionally now. I feel that I am breathing a lot more deeply too. I am fifty years old and work hard massaging up to 7 or 8 people a day. I find that it is not a problem now to massage this many people as I have plenty of energy. One day a few weeks ago I felt a pain in my left TMJ and then felt an intense click with the sensation of 'bubbling' along my jaw, which lasted for a few hours. Now it feels as though my teeth are in alignment.

I sleep really well now as well. I have always considered myself to be a bit 'highly strung' but now find that life just flows along nicely. Things that used to bother me a lot don't any longer. So all in all I think my experience of the AtlasPROfilax has been really good.

Gina is a very caring woman; The quality of her service both before and after the treatment has been wonderful. She made me feel really at ease, and has never hesitated to answer all my questions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gina to anyone who is in pain as someone who could probably help them.

Since my teenage years I have constantly suffered with back and shoulder problems related to scoliosis. These problems have been exacerbated by various sports injuries. Looking back I can't really remember a time when I was pain free. I have spent most of my adult life regularly seeing a Chiropractor which tends to temporarily ease my symptoms until I inevitably put my back out again. I have also tried acupuncture, massage therapy, and naturopathy to no avail.

When I heard of the Atlas procedure I thought that I might as well give it a go. I have to admit I didn't really expect much to change. The procedure was relaxing and painless and like nothing I had ever had before. Immediately following the treatment I felt relief especially around the neck area. Long term I no longer suffer from the regular headaches I was forced to live with and I find myself standing more upright which relieves pressure on my back. I still have back pain as it is a permanent injury but the pain is not as exreme and now I am living a better life as a result of Gina's treatment.

I was so impressed with the results that I have recommended the procedure to friends, family and clients many of whom have also tried it and all of whom have had positive results. If you have any sort of back, shoulder or neck pain you owe it to yourself to try the Atlas procedure, it will change your life.

About 3 years ago i fell off a two-story balcony landing on my behind. I never saw a doctor for the fall and since than have at times been in agony from my lower back. Also with this injury I occurred neck stiffness and pain, which often aches after a long days work.
Since an early age I have also suffered with aching knees, at times I remember being in that much pain I’d curl myself into a ball and apply pressure to my knees. Never receiving any advice from a doctor I just learnt to deal with the pain.
On days with all of these above-mentioned injuries I would find myself bed ridden or worse stuck at work in excruciating pain. Not a nice feeling when you’re only young and wanting to enjoy time with friends etc.
I have always been very sceptical about alternative health procedures and i am not one to feel at ease with a doctor visit so when Gina mentioned the Atlas procedure i didn’t take any notice and ignored her. Thankfully Gina being the professional persistent type she convinced me to have it done.
I'd just like to use this time to say "Thankyou very much Gina, you have reduced so much pain in my life and I am very thankful"!!!
Since having the Atlas done i have had no problems with my knee's and neck and the pain in my lower back has been reduced immensely.
Gina has a relaxing, friendly environment at her clinic and i recommend visiting her for an Atlas or any other treatment ASAP, its great!
Cheers to the team at Gina's, keep up the good work!

My family and I have had our AtlasPROfilax treatment with Gina. There are three of us, and each had a different set of symptoms that we did not relate to having our Atlas' out of alignment (not that we even knew we had one!), but when we each had out AtlasPROfilax treatment, we noticed some changes and received many benefits.

I read about the treatment in brochures and material at Ginas when I was booked in for a Bowen treatment. The benefits claimed from the treatment were interesting (but I didn't believe all of them - how could one treatment be so effective ?), but the thing that drew me to the treatment was the possibility that my daughter, who had behavioural 'issues' since she was born that had caused her, her father, me, teachers, counsellors, doctors of all persuasions, and our family bank account much grief could have been suffering from a misaligned Atlas.

Because it was working on the neck, though I trusted Gina, I was not going to book my daughter in without knowing what it was, how it worked, and what it felt like, so I decided to have a treatment so that I knew, and could decide whether I wanted to have my daughter treated.

I had my AtlasPROfilax treatment on a Monday, and decided to wait a week until I booked my daughter in. I didn't even consider booking in my husband, who considers himself an open minded sceptic, but I beg to differ - some battles are not worth the effort really. Gina warned that there may be some emotional stirrings over the coming days, and to give her a call if there was any issue or any questions. On the Wednesday, I realised that my back was not hurting any more - I had a long term low grade niggling back pain that was always there, a shoulder that would freeze every now and then, and a stiff neck such that I could not touch chin to chest without tension and discomfort - I figured these were from years of extreme sports, and that I had to deal with these as consequences. I decided that I was talking myself into not feeling the pain anymore to justify paying for the treatment, so carried on. A couple of days later my husband noticed that I had more energy than usual, I was not limping out of bed in the morning, and I was generally more even tempered. He then booked a treatment at the same time as our daughter the next Monday! It is worth noting at this point that I had had over 20 years of back pain - I was treated by physios at the AIS, accomplished sports doctors, and rehab personal trainers. All helped to a point, but the AtlasPROfilax treatment took it to the next level, and I do think it really has 'cured' it.

Our daughter had various 'issues' since birth - cried 18 hours a day for first 12 months, had digestive system issues, initially had learning and behavioural problems, social issues, and was generally 'wound up' all the time. Many of the issues had been sorted out and controlled via diet, occupational therapy, behavioural modifications and increased self awareness (probably the most important), but there were still a few energy, outlook and physical related issues. She has also inherited a clicking jaw from her Dad. Whenever she opened her mouth to bite and chew, her jaw clicked - it was very noisy and quite uncomfortable. She also had headaches on a daily basis. After the AltasPROfilax treatment, her jaw no longer clicked, she has had much fewer headaches, is generally more coordinated and has better spatial awareness, and her general demeanour is more settled.

My husband, who has many old injuries from years of extreme sports, and a potentially limiting neck injury that he needs to keep under control, thought that the AtlasPROfilax treatment may help his neck and jaw. His jaw actually dislocated when he opened his mouth, and when he chewed, the jaw would click. It was noisy and very uncomfortable for him. After the treatment, he noticed that his jaw was not clicking as much, and after a couple of days, the clicking had stopped. His neck was also much freer. Unfortunately, he needed some dental work done, and by the time he was in the chair for 2+ hours, the jaw is back to its clicking ways. Back to Ginas I think.

It is really important to look after your body (all the time) especially after the AtlasPROfilax treatment. We have found that exercise, stretching, fun, laughter, massages and Bowen keeps the newly aligned body in good shape and good spirits.

In summary, I think that the AtlasPROfilax treatment has been beneficial to every member of the family, and it was money well spent. It is safe, painfree, NO MANIPULATION involved, and works brilliantly - a definite must.

Ailments before AtlasPROfilax application:
Chronic migraine headaches, regular slipped disc in upper back area between shoulder blades, lower back pain- sacrum area

On the day of application, significant pain relief immediately after the application (migraine).
N.B. pain scale 1-10 with 10 being unbearable, pain went from 8.5/9 to 4/5 on the day of application.

21/04/08

Over three months post application; pain has gradually reduced further in “waves” down to 2. “Clicking” and “popping” sensations continue in neck and upper spine on average every 3 days, indicating that they are realigning into their correct positions.
Pain-management medication no longer required on a daily basis.

Thank you very much Gina

Sincerely

I had some side effects, like slight headache, tight neck and shoulder muscles, then it got better.
My hips “locked in” two days later, and I was scared. I managed to go to work, in pain. It lasted nearly a week. BUT THEN, somehow, (and I know what you said about resist to have treatments) after three oste treatments, my hips moved back in place. THEY HAD NOT BEEN IN PLACE FOR 5 YEARS! Now the BIG change is that my body is MAINTAINING THE CHANGE, again, the first time in so many years!!!! My limp is now very slight, and I am sure that it will also disappear with a bit more time.
THEN, my knees and lower legs started to hurt, sharp shooting pains, etc… ever step was painful. Same story as with hips, had two treatments, had to re-set the knees, because the cartilage had “travelled”. Now I am about 80% right with the knees. Level of pain down to 10% only occasionally through the day.

One more new thing: I can now sleep on both sides, without pain!!!! First time since 5 years or so.
Oh, and my left shoulder has ceased “getting dislocated”.

NOW FOR POSITIVES ONLY
NO more headaches AT ALL.
I can rest my head on my chin for the first time since I was a teenager!!!!
I can do push-ups, for the first time IN MY LIFE!!! I am starting to have stomach muscles for the first time in my life.
I am also building thigh muscles, for the first time in YEARS. Am still working on the buttocks though…. ?

I am more calm and seem to have a much better short term memory.
I haven’t had a panic attack since I saw you. Even though I started a new job that is quite challenging.

What can I say???
If I had a second treatment with you would this improve even further??? Haha joking.
I still find it amazing, that only ONE treatment can do all this.
Now with the muscle gain, even though I have been assiduously exercising for at least three years EVERY DAY, it is only since your treatment, that my body started to respond and ‘retain” the benefits of exercise and build up of muscle tone.!
Go figure, how THAT is connected!!!

I am sure that I am taller as well and FEEL slimmer. It is easier for me to stand straight, naturally, without feeling strained.

All and all, I am so delighted and stunned that ONE treatment could achieve this!!!!
I perceive that “something” which prevented my body in functioning properly was removed or “diffused” thereby enabling my body to go into automatic self healing, and all the results of my efforts, and thinking are finally showing up.
Oh, and there is also some rejuvenation happening.
You should take before and after photos, a few months apart.

I am delighted that you are coming back to Sydney and will definitely let my network of people know that you will be here.
I certainly hope that they will be open to it.

Thanks again SOOOOOOOOOOO much
Edua

PS.: I perceive that it does take a couple of months to feel the full impact of the treatment and I know that my body is still continuing with its own adjustments.
PPS: Is this a coincidence, with everything else I am doing? No, NO, I have far LESS treatments that are more spaced out and MORE physical and mental stress and yet, my body is getting BETTER.(I used to have two osteo treatments a week, and now I am having one treatment every second week, or every third week!) I will keep spacing them more and more and might be able to live without treatments? Heaven!

Hi Gina,
Just a quick note to thank you for the Atlas treatment; it has made such a difference to my whole life.

You may recall the reason I had it done was because I was having more and more problems with my neck and back and now after a ‘settling’ period things have really improved. However, I've got to say that the 'settling' period was awful, even though you had warned me that with my history it was most likely going to get worse before it got better I was not prepared for what happened.

I got the most incredible pain through the muscles either side of my neck and the tightness was so bad I felt that my head was being pulled through my bum! My shoulders became so tense that I couldn't relax at all and even Voltaren had no effect. As these areas eased it worked its way down my back and my middle then lower back became stiff, painful and felt weak. It was a really trying time and I honestly thought that I would never get better and for a couple of months that you had permanently damaged me but you kept reasurring me that it would pass and it did. Slowly the problems subsided as you said they would and things are now looking good; I am really glad I didn't lose faith or forget where I came from or it could have got desperate.

After all these years of living with injuries and bad posture the straightening process was incredibly bad, a dramatic example of how much you can learn to live with without realising. Now the headaches that were part of my life for over 20 years are just about gone so my reliance on Neurofen to get through each day is over. I’m sure that will be good for my liver and, if the reports are right my heart too. I also now have full movement of my head and can look over both shoulders and my back doesn't go into spasm every time I put it under the slightest stress or stay too long in one position; I can’t tell you what that freedom of movement means to me.

My wife used to say that I used to stop breathing while I was asleep and was always on at me to see a doctor for sleep apnea. She said it was the reason I felt more tired in the morning than I had been when I went to bed. Well, like a good male I never believed her, or didn’t want to! However, the other day she asked if I was feeling better these mornings and when I said yes she informed me that since you did my Atlas I’ve started breathing normally in my sleep.

How terrific, not only is my neck and back so much better but I’ve got rid of a problem I didn’t believe I had!!

Dear Gina, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the Atlas Correction which you performed on my neck late last year. I cannot believe the difference it has made to my neck and back and how I now am feeling.

As you know I have raced Motorcycles for many years and have had some nasty injuries to various parts of my body but never thought that I had hurt my neck in anyway. These injuries included broken ribs, broken color bones, dislocated shoulder, and wrist and numerous bangs to hips and legs.
After your treatment the pain which I was feeling every day which I thought was part of growing older just vanished.

I am now sleeping better and have stopped having dizzy spells when I stand up quickly. I also now have full movement in my neck and doing the exercises you gave me I have much better flexibility and have hardly had any headaches, which where driving me crazy.

Having the Atlas Correction was the best thing I have done for myself in years and recommend to every one I meet.

After having the AtlasProfilax treatment I love my new range of motion. Prior to having the treatment my left leg was shorter than my right, I can now feel my left leg is longer than before. They feel more even now.

I have also felt a release of tension in my neck, upper back and jaw area, which was quite tight before.

I feel really good and happy, like something big has shifted and released.

I am looking forward to seeing how my body holds up with no Chiropractor for a while as I was seeing a Chiropractor regularly; I would love to never have to go back

Thank you I feel fantastic!

The treatment didn’t take very long and wasn’t painful at all. As soon as it was finished I felt “lighter”, my muscles weren’t tight any more and I could lie on my stomach without my back getting stiff. The next day I felt well for the first time in ages and my memory had improved! Hard to believe that such a small thing could make such a difference.

The main reason for seeking treatment was I have had very limited neck movement for many years and was in constant pain. I found the Atlas treatment extremely beneficial. I hadn’t realised how much pain I had become accustomed to, until it disappeared a day after the treatment. I now sleep well, and my neck movement has improved beyond belief, and I believe will continue to do so with the regular exercises Gina set for me.

I have just turned 54 and have suffered from Ankylosing Spondilitis (AS) since the age of 20. AS is an inflammatory and degenerative disease which gradually fuses the spine and can be very painful at times. I have had quite a bit of trouble with it over the years and in recent times have been stiff, sore and fatigued – no good when you have a two year old boy to raise. I have tried many different therapies including TCM, naturopathy, osteopathy, remedial massage and herbalism with varying levels of success – most improvements have only been temporary.

My wife, Jane became aware of the atlas adjustment technique when seeing Gina for a massage earlier this year and went back soon after to have hers “done”. She spoke to Gina about my situation (ie would it be safe and beneficial for someone with AS?). Gina believed I would benefit greatly but undertook to confirm this by speaking to her experienced colleagues about this. In the meantime I spoke to my osteopath about the technique. He did not know a lot about it but said a number of his patients had asked about it recently. He was quite positive about the concept and didn’t have any safety concerns.

I must admit to being a bit sceptical about it all at first after having tried so many techniques and therapies over the years with little success. I was not so concerned that it may not work, but more that it may even increase my discomfort if things went wrong. Jane seemed to be benefiting from her adjustment and that, along with the positive and genuine feedback from Gina and her colleagues plus my osteopath’s opinion, I decided to give it a go!

Gina did the adjustment about two months ago and it has probably brought about the most profound physical change of my adult life. At the same time she provided advice on supplements I needed derived from the results of “Voice Bio”. Since the adjustment I have felt aligned and upright in my posture and the stress and tension in my muscles and joints has reduced noticeably and is still improving. My sleeping, which was pretty ordinary, has generally improved and even a persistent sinus condition has almost cleared up. The general stiffness and soreness I thought I had for life has significantly reduced and I’m very hopeful that this improvement will continue.

Gina advised that there would be days when I would wish I had never had it done as my body and systems adjusted to the changes. I have had the odd uncomfortable day and bouts of fatigue but I am in no doubt that I am well on the way to a better life!!!

Before having the Atlas treatment I had constant back pain and neck pain, my sinuses were blocked and I had frequent headaches.

Since having the Atlas PROfilax treatment I have found my back pain is improving more and more everyday. I no longer wake up with a stiff and sore neck and my sinuses have cleared.

I have found my general wellbeing has improved dramatically. I feel emotionally and mentally calmer and my quality of sleep is much better.

Before I had the treatment I had been in constant pain for over 12 months. The pain extended from my head and neck to my back and down both arms. The pain had gradually increased to the point where I had no relief – not even when I slept.

I found the pain very debilitating and it decreased my quality of life considerably. It also affected my view of the world so much that I was crabby most of the time.

I did not find the AtlasPROfilax treatment painful or uncomfortable at all, nor did it take much time.

I was not scared or concerned that you were working on my neck because I had been your client for over 20 years and I trust you implicitly. I have never had a “bad” treatment from you – only relief and success. I should have come to you earlier and saved myself some pain, but I kept thinking that it would go away.

I think that the twice weekly sauna treatments that I had for the first couple of months after my treatment helped enormously. I think the saunas helped my muscles adjust to their new positions.

I experienced occasional muscular pain for the first month after the treatment. This occurred when I was tired or stressed and the pain was nowhere near as intense as it had been.

I have no pain in my head, neck, back and arms at all now. I feel like a new woman. I can now do things that I had not been able to do for several years and had thought had been lost to me forever.

I cannot describe to you my relief at not having to endure the relentless pain anymore; my joy at having my life opened up again; and my gratefulness to you for learning how to do the AtlasPROfilax treatment.

I had the AtlasPROfilax treatment 9 weeks ago.

I had suffered from almost daily headaches for years and by the end of the working week would usually have a huge headache that would often turn into a migraine and ruin most of my weekend.

After the Atlas treatment my head felt instantly lighter and pain free. I now feel my body is aligned properly, my head feels as if it is in the correct position and I rarely experience headaches

I feel the Atlas is an absolutely fantastic treatment.

The atlas treatment for me was wonderful, firstly the emotionally release that happen while the treatment was happening, the noise that came out of me and the pain of emotion that left me was incredible. Having the hot stone massage afterwards was just wonderful and the relaxation that came with this. I felt a little fragile emotionally afterwards, this cleared as the day went on, I felt taller as if my neck had been lengthen, more awake and alert. My energy levels have increased and over all I feel healthier and more grounded since the treatment. I would thoroughly recommend this treatment.

I kept up my Massage and Bowen treatments since and have had a reconnection healing as well which Gina recommended. I feel the Atlas Treatment was the best gift I gave myself.

I had suffered headaches and neck pain for a few years after a car accident. I had found that massage and phsio only gave temporary relief. After consulting with Gina she recommended the “Atlas” treatment. After our initial consultation I was more than ready to begin a wonderful new pain free journey.

The treatment itself was great. I had put up with numbing in the right side of my face, when at my worst and headaches so a little discomfort from the procedure was more than tolerable. After the treatment my head felt lighter, my vision clearer, and I didn’t feel so foggy.

The next day I had a boost of energy and since then I have found that if I do get a stiff neck it is just muscular and a massage works. Before massage was irritating and not relaxting.

I did have a follow up hot stone massage and this was divine!!! I would highly recommend this treatment to anyone needing a realignment wether it be for physical or emotional balance.

Thank you Gina.
