    Dear Mr. Gold,

    I have watched the videos (both 12, and 17 minute programs) and have been doing the exercises for two days now. The relief is nothing short of amazing. I haven't even gotten around to using the bonus material and the pain in my back and the related pain in my rear and left leg is almost completely gone. I've tried lots of exercises and other things in the past, but nothing has worked as well as these simple movement patterns. Thank you very much for making these materials available.

    in 2001 I had a horse rear up and tip over backwards folding me up like a bill fold , breaking L3 and L4 and pinching my spinal cord just hard enough for my legs to be paralyzed for a period of time (a few hours). They were cracked and not displaced. After 4 days, when I asked the doc if I was going to walk again, he could not say. Make a long story short, I am walking. The break is not what hurt. It was the resulting muscle spasms. No one can tell me I have weak back muscles. Reading what you say" the thousand natural shocks flesh is heir to" sounds like a life story for my back.

    Last June was the last time my back spasm'd. Onto the floor and couldn't walk because of the severe pain associated with the spasm. When I managed to get to the computer I did a search on back muscle spasms and I came across your site. I implemented the emergency back pain procedure you have and instead of 3 days without doing hardly anything, it was down to about 3 hours. Needless to say, I am impressed. It still took a few days before I got a lot of strength back because I felt the muscles were totally fatigued because of the spasm they just went through.

    Since that time, when I feel the muscles starting to tighten up over a period of time I implement the same exercises and have been able to ward off any spasm.

    photos of Craig Fink I am here today because recently, a friend of my is having some pretty severe back problems and he's already been to a doctor who tells him there is nothing wrong with his joints or bones. Therefore I referred him to your site.

    A PERSPECTIVE

    SUBJECT: Re: Good Stuff -- Somatics!
    FROM:     Marelin Thornton
    DATE: 12/14/2007 2:52 PM
    TO: Lawrence Gold

    Hi Lawrence,

    I typed in "relief for back spasms" yesterday and read your article. Then I ordered the ebook, and did some exercises this morning. I can already feel some relief. And I know over time my "back problems" will return to normal, my natural state.

    Thank you so MUCH for making Somatics available!

    I love alternative therapies. I listed your article/site at What Love Does in alternative therapies.

    Marelin Thornton
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Hi, Marelin.

    Thanks for the note and for the listing at What Love Does.

    May I quote you on the website, somatics.com?

    Lawrence Gold
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Sure! I'd be honored. I did them again this morning and I feel even more improved. I plan to keep this up for the sake of my healthy back.

    Marelin
