At last! The truth about how to help more people, more effectively and in shorter appointment times -- Revealed!

Ishta Spinal Touch is the best kept secret in holistic health. In just 20 minutes you can turn an ailing client into an evangelist for your practice who will refer over and over again.

Hello!,

If you'd like to have a full practice, get a great reputation and earn what you're really worth, then this might be the most important letter you'll ever read.

Here's why:

With our combined 40 years experience in teaching people body-work you can be assured of learning and understanding how much this amazing technique can do for your clients and your practice.

Now, I know you're probably skeptical. That's normal and healthy. Let me give you three good reasons we can back up what we claim:

Three Reasons To Believe What I Say

Reason one: We are very experienced as we were the first English teachers of this technique to be fully accredited by Dr.LaMar Rosquist, the developer of Spinal Touch.

Allyn's Teaching Certificate ---------- Sue's Teaching Certificate

We have been teaching this technique since 1998, and have been working with Dr.Rosquist to refine it for the current generation.

Note: on 5th November 2008 Dr. Rosquist wrote to us and charged us with keeping this technique alive and with developing it further for posterity.

"Dear Allyn and Sue, I thought that this would be the right time for me to share a few thoughts about my role and yours in keeping alive the work that Dr. Hurley started in the early 1900's

... you (Allyn) and Sue can help train and keep this marvellous secret alive to help future generations ...

Keep it going."

Reason two: Our teaching skills are well known and highly regarded. Before discovering Ishta Spinal Touch we were the Principal and Senior practical tutors at the McTimoney College of Chiropractic.

Reason three: In our own chiropractic practice we saw our referral rates soar after introducing Ishta Spinal Touch as our default approach. Everyone who has done the training and made the changes to their practice have found exactly the same thing.

Here is a summary of the benefits you receive

The technique is very gentle and relaxing

... so clients love to receive it.

The technique is very effective

... so clients see rapid improvement and refer.

The technique promotes wellness care

... so clients keep coming back for maintenance.

The assessment procedure is simple

... so clients can see the improvement for themselves.

You can work sitting down and it is gentle on your body

... so at the end of a busy day you are not worn out.

Shorter appointment times

... so you can see more clients in a day.

Clients refer over and over again

... so you have a full diary and save on advertising costs.

... so you know you have done a good job.

Convert your practice to a wellness orientated one

Being able to work more holistically

... means not having to work symptomatically.

Having a full diary when you choose to work

... means you can afford to take more holidays.

Having a powerful demonstration tool for health fairs etc

... so you stand out from the crowd and people want to know what you are offering.

The course notes are very comprehensive

... allowing you to increase your understanding of how the body works.

A safe and caring learning environment

... gives you permission to learn new things.

Being with like minded people

... lets you recapture your enthusiasm for helping people and reminds you why you got into this line of work to begin with. Life-long friendships can be made.

Now, you're probably wondering how and why we can do all those things.

Let me explain.

Ishta Spinal Touch is a simple yet powerful technique for realigning the body's centre of gravity, which is located around the junction between the fifth lumbar vertebra and the first sacral segment. If the centre of gravity of the body is displaced then the balanced, dynamic tension of the paraspinal muscles is disturbed. This can result in misalignments of the vertebrae and joints of the pelvis. This, in turn, can compromise the nerves, leading to pain and dysfunction. Also, the homoeostatic mechanisms of the body can be imbalanced so that the body's innate healing abilities are depressed.

Ishta Spinal Touch assesses the position of the centre of gravity and any postural distortions. If these are not correct there is a simple technique to restore the balance of the centre of gravity and correct the posture. This frees the paraspinal muscles and, in turn, the vertebrae, nerves and the innate healing abilities of the body. As a result pain reduces and functionality increases. This is done solely through a unique muscle relaxation technique.


Ishta Spinal Touch is particularly safe and gentle and has helped people with:-

Ankylosing Spondylitis, Anxiety, Arthritis, Asthma, Back Pain, Balance Problems, Depression, Digestive Problems, Fatigue, Foot Problems, Frozen Shoulders, Headaches, Insomnia, Jaw Problems, Joint Pain, Knee Problems, Kyphosis, Learning and behavioural difficulties, Lordosis, Low Energy, Menstrual Problems, Migraines, Multiple Sclerosis, Neck Pain, Pins and Needles, Problems during and after Pregnancy, Recurrent Infections, Repetitive Strain Injuries, Scoliosis, Sciatica, Sinus Problems, Sports Injuries, Stress Management, Tension, Visual Disturbances, Wellness Care, Whiplash Injuries and more.

Ishta Spinal Touch is primarily concerned with creating a healthy, balanced state on all levels. It can, therefore, help people with almost any condition.

 

 

The Training Courses


The Foundation Course is open to anyone, lay people and therapists alike. At the end of the two-day seminar you will be able to treat family and friends on a non-fee basis. It is perfect for those wishing to learn a simple version of the technique to improve and maintain the health of their friends and family; and gives an idea of the potential of the full technique.

The Practitioner Course is open to all existing, active therapists who hold professional indemnity insurance and have completed the Foundation Course, or taken a different spinal touch training.

It consists of three, two-day seminars and attendance at all is required. There will be assignments and case histories that must be completed between the seminars. There will also be a final practical assessment and a written examination. The latter is sent over to America to be marked by Dr. LaMar Rosquist. On the successful completion of all of these, a certificate to practise Ishta Spinal Touch will be awarded.

The Advanced Courses are open to all existing, active practitioners who have completed our Practitioner Course.

The Master Practitioner Course is open to all existing, active practitioners who have completed a minimum of three Advanced Courses.



To ensure that a high quality of supervision is maintained the teaching ratio is one tutor to two students.

"Since I was taught Ishta Spinal Touch by Allyn & Sue, not only has my life improved as I don't have the pain when I walk which I had for 39 years (brilliant!), but countless others are able to have the benefits as well. It's like a ripple of hope running through our lives.

My client base has more than doubled and I am averaging two new starts a week. As I work word of mouth and do not advertise I am very pleased with this figure. I am working less time and the work is less strenuous for me.

I'm doing The Race For Life this year just because I CAN!!!"

Warning: Do NOT undertake a Spinal Touch course
unless it meets the following 5 criteria

 

There is a lot of confusion surrounding our field. I want to give you 5 criteria or elements you absolutely, positively must have in any spinal touch training you obtain:

1: The course tutors must be accredited by Dr. LaMar Rosquist. Only if they have been trained by Dr. Rosquist can you guarantee that the tutors are teaching you the authentic technique.

2: The examinations are sent to America for Dr. Rosquist to mark. He then will issue a certificate, on successful completion of the exam.

3: The Practitioner Course is only being offered to existing therapists. Dr.Rosquist is adamant that this technique is an add-on technique only and you must hold an existing qualification to learn it.

4: That sufficient time is allowed for you to assimilate all the new information, practise the techniques and integrate it all into your practice.

5: That the Practitioner Course is teaching you the full technique and not just what you would learn on our Foundation Course.

A Cautionary Tale

 
I went on Sue & Allyn's Foundation Course in Ishta Spinal Touch. I didn't know what to expect or even if I would be able to grasp the concept of the technique or if the terminology would be beyond my comprehension. I was worrying for no reason. The Foundation Course was very comprehensive and packed with information that you would hope for on such a professional course; but, it was taught in such a way that it was easy to understand. Any queries were answered with precision and you were made to feel that there was no such thing as a stupid question.

Unfortunately, due to lack of funds, I decided to go on to do the Practitioner Course from another source. It saved me around £200 which, at the time I was mighty grateful for. However, I soon realised why the course was cheaper than Sue & Allyn's. The Practitioner Course content I was taught was absolutely no more than the Foundation Course I had already learned with Sue & Allyn. I queried this with Sue and Allyn and soon learned that, although I had been taught the Practitioner Course as in Dr Rosquist's book, there was far more to Ishta Spinal Touch than that. Sue & Allyn offer far more on their Practitioner Course that builds on the basic knowledge and that will enhance the treatment given and speed up the healing process. Sue & Allyn's Foundation Course is, in effect, other's Practitioner Courses, so you can only imagine how comprehensive and packed with information their Practitioner Course is.

In retrospect I wish I had stayed true to myself and saved the extra money to do a more thorough course with the bonus of added knowledge and resources with Sue & Allyn.

The aftercare given with Sue & Allyn is amazing. They have supported me and helped at every opportunity possible, even though I only did their Foundation Course. It is wonderful to know they are always there to answer any questions/queries I have and I do not feel the same support from the other source and my first thought is to turn to Sue and Allyn when I need advice.

I cannot recommend ISHTA SPINAL TOUCH highly enough and if you were considering taking it further to do the Practitioner Course, I can only emphasise that you not only get what you pay for but with these guys you get far, far more.
