Can the Anat Baniel Method Reduce Your Pain?

“The results of the ABM, in comparison with anything I have encountered in the “conventional” medical field, are nothing short of miraculous. Anat Baniel has helped me to see a much bigger picture and I am very excited to be a part of the work that she is furthering.”
Neil Sharp, M.D, Cambridge University and Edinburgh Medical school

Yes! This cutting edge approach is based in the understanding of how the brain forms patterns of posture and movement – good and bad ones. It also looks at all aspects of the person: body, mind, emotion and spirit and its relationship to pain. It addresses an “invisible” element that is of the utmost importance in our ability to recover from pain and prevent future pain: the QUALITY with which we move.

This Method offers natural pain relief solutions. The Anat Baniel Method can help you manage chronic pain with fewer drugs or with no drugs at all. By doing the Transformational Movement Lessons you will rid yourself of pain and chronic pain because your brain will form new neural pathways which will replace the old ones that cause you pain. For the new pathways to develop, your brain needs new information. Unfortunately, as long as you repeat what you do over and over again in your daily movements, exercise routines, and limiting beliefs, you have no choice but to continue having pain and chronic pain.

With the Anat Baniel Method safe and gentle exercises your brain will get a flow of new information. With this new information from your body, mind, and emotions, you will instantaneously create new patterns that will free you from your pain and limitation. You will discover ease and freedom in your movement you haven’t felt for a long time, and perhaps ever.. You will be able to do things you were never able to do before. You will create a more positive relationship with your body. You will become stronger and have more energy. And most importantly – you will do all this pain-free.

Transformational Movement Lessons for Natural Pain Relief

The Transformational Movement Lessons are very different from regular exercise. Rather than engage in repetitive movements that are often done forcefully and even mindlessly, with the Transformational Movement Lessons you will be asked to move gently and slowly and pay attention to what you feel. You will be paying attention to your whole body, not just the painful areas. There are scores of Transformational Movement Lessons, and each one is different from all others. You will quickly become aware of what you are doing and will discover ways to move that are easier and are pain-free. You will be amazed at how quickly you will feel better and how your posture, breathing and all movement will improve.

Anat will guide you through the different movements in each of the exercises. In each lesson you will learn new movement skills or improve on existing skills that are necessary for you to be free of pain and chronic pain. Each lesson is different from all others. This variety insures that your brain continues to get a rich flow of new information that it needs to form new pain free patterns for you. The DVD and CD exercise programs have lessons that are between 30-45 minutes long that you can safely do in the comfort of your home.  Desk-Trainer is a Web based animated program with exercises that are 5-7 minutes long.

You will learn to move so bending down, looking up and around yourself will be easy and comfortable. You will become more flexible and stronger. Lifting objects will become easier and safer. You will stand taller and you will walk and breathe better. Over time, by continuing to do these lessons, you will be able to participate more successfully in fitness, exercise, dance, or sport programs of your choice. .

How the Method Works for Pain and Chronic Pain Relief

These gentle, safe, and mindful movement lessons not only can diminish existing pain, but you will also learn how to prevent pain and chronic pain. The Method addresses an “invisible” element that is of the utmost importance in our ability to recover from pain and prevent future pain: the QUALITY with which we move. When we move harmoniously, the forces generated by our muscles create easy, safe movement rather than friction and injury, and enhance healing and health. When the movement is disorganized, some of that force actually destroys body tissue which leads to injury inflammation and pain. With this natural pain relief Method you learn how to move harmoniously and also gain the emotional, mental and spiritual benefits that come with it.

Common causes of pain

When we experience pain, we tend to believe that it was caused by an accident. We must have lifted something that was too heavy. Maybe we slept in a “bad” position. Or maybe we are simply getting older and pain and chronic pain are to be expected  (Click to read: Reversing Pain Through the Principles of Organized Movement)

What many of us don't know is that most pain is caused by poor posture and poor movement habits formed by faulty learning, usually beginning in childhood. When the movement is disorganized, some of the forces generated by our muscles create friction that actually destroys body tissue. Over time this leads to injury and pain. Sure, some pain is the result of accidents or illness. Unfortunately when we are injured we tend to compound the trouble when we try to protect ourselves from the pain and create new disorganized patterns that cause us even more pain and chronic pain. No matter the cause of the pain, the speed at which pain can be resolved goes right back to movement habits learned in childhood and adulthood, and to our ability to learn new patterns of movement, of thinking, and of feeling.

Since it is the brain that organizes movement, the Method will provide your brain with the information and experiences it needs in order to reorganize itself and find new pain-free solutions. Given the proper guidance, as taught in the Anat Baniel Method, your brain is capable of quickly and efficiently find new and better ways for you to move. That is when your pain or chronic pain will stop.

Anyone suffering from physical pain knows that it is always accompanied by emotional pain and mental distress. With this natural pain relief Method, you will learn to employ awareness, you will gain an understanding of how your body works and you will experience immediate positive changes from the transformational movement lessons. As a result your thinking will become clearer; you will replace fear with a sense of well being and freedom. Hope and joy will replace confusion and despair.

The Purpose of Pain

When we experience pain, understandably, all we want is to get rid of it - right now! It's hard to imagine that pain might serve any useful purpose. However, pain serves an incredibly important function. It informs us that we are in the process of injuring ourselves or are already injured, and that we are in danger. To learn more, please read our article on Exercise and Pain: The Purpose of Pain.

Pain needs to be listened to, not ignored. Pain is an opportunity to learn new and better ways to move and to rid ourselves of disruptive beliefs. It is also an opportunity for us to discover positive emotions so that the causes of pain and chronic pain disappear. With the ABM not only the pain diminishes, but new possibilities for a more powerful and satisfying life open up.
