The Matrix Repatterning Program for Pain Relief: Self-treatment For Musculoskeletal Pain    by George Roth Order:  USA  Can New Harbinger, 2005 (2005) Softcover     Reviewed by Ayesha Baumgartner The Matrix repatterning program is breakthrough technology. This fascinating book on the subject is based on various studies on how to increase the electrical field generated by the hands (of patient or healer) to heal the body. The book offers healing assistance via tools and exercises to apply the healing power that is at our fingertips. George Roth (a chiropractor and naturopath) suggests that it is possible to effect powerful cures simply by applying hands to the injured area. The electrical power we are capable of channeling through our own hands is what makes this treatment interesting. The author emphasizes that sometimes tension in the body is related to accumulated injuries experienced in the past. The body records every injury and it is a matter of listening to what the body has to say, and then to treat it. Many professional athletes benefit from this technique. There are exercises to apply at the time of an injury, as well as a form of maintenance to prevent further damage. Encouraging examples are given of cases where patients were freed from pain and/or difficulty with movement. The treatment itself is not painful and has no risk, though it does not replace the need for a health care practitioner. Guidance is given to apply the technique to children, for example for common sprains and stumped toes. The reader is assisted in achieving mind and body connection, with home care measures - from cold therapy to epsom salts - in order to avoid electrical imbalances that tend to negatively influence the molecular structure of the body. The author suggests that not only does touch have a powerful influence on our health, but so do our thoughts. For anyone from the weekend warrior to the elite athlete, this book is valuable in helping to alleviate pains (minor to chronic) and restore the body to its normal balanced state. For those suffering from chronic back or neck pain, The Matrix Repatterning Program for Pain Relief offers insight into the world of alternative healing. Read it and discover for yourself whether you can alleviate suffering and correct imbalances in your own body. Support the healing process of your body by applying the simple exercises in this book.
