I first went to see Dr. Posa because I was experiencing severe dizzy spells that were accompanied by horrible bouts of nausea. In the six months to a year that I searched for relief, I would wake up daily with difficulty turning my body and feel the onset of dizziness so intense I would throw up. Many days were ruined because I felt so terrible and sick. I went to many doctors for tests and MRI, neurologists, and without success, no one knew why I was experiencing such debilitating dizziness. Dr. Posa assured me his method of chiropractic treatment would be helpful. I noticed very quickly, improvement of mobility in my neck where I had had whiplash 12 years before. At one time I couldn’t turn my head, now my head moves easily and without discomfort. The dizziness and nausea has stopped and has been replaced with a feeling of calm. Today it takes extreme tiredness or movement to feel the slightest bit of dizziness. My whole body feels more relaxed. Four years later, my care with Dr. Posa has evolved on many levels and I seek entrainments for prevention and improvement in my ability to heal and recover from stress and illness. I so enjoy the peaceful and relaxed feeling that I get from each session. NSA consistently contributes to my overall healing process and my sense of well being. I would recommend it for everyone.

During my teens and into my early 20’s I was in a series of car accidents and as a result of untreated injuries, I developed fibromyalgia. With the injuries compounded, the quality of my life slowly disintegrated. I was in a constant state of pain, with severe muscle aches and migraine headaches that left me exhausted and withdrawn from my life. I was not able to work, and I had to quit school because I could not keep up with the routine. My life had become an endless cycle of doctor’s visits and prescriptive medication to ease the pain and discomfort. I developed a sleeping disorder that required medication to help me sleep, and I was tired all the time. It was depressing to be 23 years old and not be able to keep up with my friends who were living life with energy and vitality.

A family friend recommended that I try NSA at the Network Care Center. After my first Network Spinal Analysis session with Dr. Legault, there was noticeable improvement in my breathing, where it felt less obstructed and freer flowing. After my 3rd visit the joints in my muscles had loosened and I felt less tense. The overall pain had eased up and my headaches were less severe.

In the six months that I have been receiving Network Spinal Analysis treatments, the quality of my life has been restored! I am back at work, often working back-to-back shifts that I can handle with ease. I am enjoying life’s daily routines and all the activities that I felt held back from because I was in pain and didn’t have the energy. I am now enjoying my life with my friends and am able to stay out late without debilitating consequences!

I am committed to NSA now more than ever after I recently had another serious car accident. My body has bounced back and I have resumed life without serious consequences to my lifestyle. I am grateful to Dr. Posa and Dr. Legault for their support and encouragement. The whole experience of finding NSA and the Network Care Center has been wonderful, and I am so happy to have my life back!

When I came to Network Chiropractic and Dr. Posa last fall, I had had a history of severe sciatica, with residual twinges and weaknesses, and I also had the usual creaks and cracks of an aging body in its late fifties. I was beginning to feel “worn”. When Dr. Posa in the introductory workshop spoke of a practice member in their eighties who had the spine of a young adult, I was interested in this rejuvenation, aliveness and vitality.

So I began Network Spinal Analysis. I came often for chiropractic treatments. I began to notice changes in my physical well being. My posture began to change. I had more energy. I felt like I walked taller and I had more spring in my step. My sciatica seldom acted up. My neck was no longer stiff; my hiatus hernia receded. I was pleasantly surprised! I had not expected to feel such impact on a physical level. I could feel aliveness taking form within myself.

There was a second reason that I had come to Network Care. As a psychotherapist, I had already done a great deal of inner work with the usual psychological issues in my life, and now my continuing study and training had taken me into trauma work and the exploration of an early trauma of my own. In the first few weeks of my life, I had experienced a medical trauma that established a subtle pattern of agitation and tension that had remained in my body until now.

Gradually, with Network Spinal Analysis, this underlying sense of agitation and tension lessened, and I began to feel more peaceful. A quiet presence developed that was noticeable to friends and colleagues. They commented on how they had never seen me so at peace within myself. My oldest sister, who had walked me for hours when I was that distressed infant, exclaimed how calm I had become, in a way she had never seen before. Even strangers remarked on it.

So what began as a support to the professional development that I was involved in, has become a blessing in my own process as well as in my work with clients. The exploration that I do personally has been radically deepened and supported, and the work that I do with clients moves more quickly and easily. I now often recommend network chiropractic care to my clients and colleagues in support of their own growth and healing. I see how this tension stored in the spine holds in place a lifetime of internal psychological posture, and just how invitational it is to us to have this tension lift, to be able to be open to a universe of possibilities, physically, psychologically and spiritually.

After my wife had been seeing Dr. Posa for a few months I began noticing subtle differences in her personality. She seemed to be coming back to life and smiling again, something that had been missing due to her own series of discomforts. When I decided to go for myself, although I arrived without a specific injury, I was experiencing back and neck pain brought on by a sacroiliac condition that I had had for a considerable part of my adult life. I developed effective pain management from the discomfort that was present in most of my daily activities. Once a week I sought treatment with a traditional chiropractor and combined with other traditional therapies, all were helpful but lacked lasting results.

When I first started Network Spinal Analysis with Dr. Posa, I did not experience instant results that I had become accustomed to with the previous chiropractor. It was the 6th or 7th week when I began to feel a more fluid type of movement overall. Any discomfort that I felt in my body seemed to be self-correcting. Over the next few months the subtle changes became more permanent as I became aware of how my spine felt stretched out to the point where I actually grew ¼”! I stood straight and upright with my shoulders back, my chest forward. My lower back pain subsided and I now feel pain in my neck occasionally.

One year later, I am noticing changes on all levels. Structurally, I am no longer feeling the physical pain in my back and neck that had disrupted my life for so many years. I had also suffered from gastric ulcers that have all but ceased to flare up. My digestive system is working more efficiently and the tightness in my stomach has improved dramatically. Emotionally, I am more sensitive to the world around me. I feel calmer and less anxious about every day worries. I have a deeper awareness and appreciation of people I am in relationship with, and I am more tolerant, more patient. I feel myself easing back to the gentle calm person I was before the stresses of life took over.

Overall I am much happier, and I feel so much better. I am grateful to no longer feel the pain and discomfort that I felt for so many years. Network Spinal Analysis has definitely changed my life.

I consider the 2nd half of my life to have begun in 1994, when I started
Network Spinal Analysis treatments with Dr. Posa. Previous to that time, I lived with discomfort and debilitating pain for years after rupturing a disc in my lower back. Over the course of the 1980’s I was forced to give up all physical activity that I enjoyed so much, including ice hockey, soccer, softball, and eventually the walks in the woods with my wife gave way to lying stretched out on the bed in attempts to loosen the tension and the pain. I was unable to stand for long periods, or walk on uneven surfaces without felling intolerable pain.

I tried physiotherapy, chiropractic and anti-inflammatory in an effort to alleviate the discomfort, but without lasting effects. Surgery was discussed as a last resort and I didn’t consider that an option. In 1994 a colleague of mine suggested I see Dr. Posa, after he had successfully been treated for neck stress and sleeplessness. My first experience with NSA (Network Spinal Analysis) was very positive as I immediately felt a clearing and release of tension. In the few weeks following, I was back to walking and enjoying my favorite sports. My life changed dramatically from feeling constant throbbing pain on a daily basis, year after year, to feeling the incredible release of tension and to regaining fluidity in my range of movement.

In the year following, as I reclaimed my life, I also became aware of how my outlook on life had changed. What I did not anticipate or expect to feel through the physical healing process was the release of emotional tensions that resulted in a profound shift and how I viewed and experienced life from a place of calm and peacefulness. My demeanor has changed, as well as my mental attitudes; my levels of stress has been reduced dramatically where I am now more tolerant and have a better understanding of people and difficult situations. Life flows more easily. I became so committed to this method of healing that I bought a table to use in my home between sessions. The years of treatments have enabled me to lie in the face down prone position where my body now automatically begins to process any tension and discomfort. I have also combined my network spinal therapy with SRI breathing techniques to give me the full benefit of releasing discomfort or stress.

My life is richer and more enhanced than I ever experienced before, because of the lasting effects that NSA has on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. I am healthy, fit and emotionally relaxed and I am deeply grateful to Dr. Posa and the exceptional form of treatment that he performs.

Recently I had an emotional reaction to an experience that had taken me from a wonderful “high” to a heartbreaking “low” in the span of a week. There had been some build up to the event that made it that much more difficult to comprehend. On the worst day I went to Dr. Posa in tears. I was heartbroken but I knew from my experience of seeing him regularly for the past two years, that I would at least shift my emotions to a place where I would find some relief. That night, after the session, I felt the usual calm but I also felt separateness from the incident that enabled me to view it objectively from a distance. Over the evening and into the weekend I felt a peacefulness that was such a relief to the intensity of my feelings of hopelessness. I began to feel connected to my surroundings and I felt wonderfully grounded. My feelings of despair changed to feelings of strength and compassion. I developed a whole new perspective on the situation and was able to see it with clarity rather than raw emotion.

I processed these new feelings combined with some of the resurging hurt all through the following week and by the time I arrived at Dr. Posa’s office exactly one week later, I was feeling strong and confident. The situation has evolved, with some communication, and I now feel at ease with whatever outcome will be presented. I credit my network spinal analysis therapy with the ease in which I processed my feelings and how I handled both my emotions and the situation. Before NSA I would have been overwhelmed and unable to cope with the rawness of and the hurt. It would have stayed with me day and night instead of moving through me. Having experienced NSA for the past three years, my body does not hold on to trauma the way it used to. I still feel the feelings but they move through me so much faster and they do not linger or consume me.

Exactly one week later I am in such a peaceful place within myself where I hold not anger or resentment and I am able to look at my hurt feelings from a distance. My confidence has returned and I feel like I have really grown from this experience. Instead of turning to blame and judgment, I have found compassion and a clarity that really allows me to explore the situation with more depth and understanding.

I may have dips now and then, which we all do, where a wave of emotion or memory will wash over me, but I now know without a doubt that the peace resides within and that it will return when the emotion subsides. Throughout that very emotional week, the peace found me several times and brought me back to my center.

I am so grateful to Dr. Posa for the work he does that allows our bodies to release instead of hold on to disempowering emotions and where we an begin true healing and move forward to a superior quality of life.

In the past year that I have been seeing Dr. Posa, I believe my life has been turned around. I was diagnosed with COPD (chronic obstruction pulmonary disease) about ten years ago; I was hospitalized on numerous occasions and almost died three times. This crippling lung disease not only affects my ability to breathe but the emotional anxiety that I have experienced has been just as debilitating. Over the years I have tried many different kinds of treatments, some of which contributed to my health, but none I feel, have had the positive effects of
Network Spinal Analysis (NSA).

The improvement in the quality of my life has been incredible. Since seeing Dr. Posa I have not been hospitalized and I have not experienced a bad bout or attack (no steroids). My immune system has strengthened, my energy has increased, and I feel such a change within myself that it is often hard to describe. I am more loving, I am kinder, and I feel much more of a spiritual connection. Praying and meditating was always a part of my life, my connection to my higher power the depth of my meditation has increased since I started my treatments. My treatments take me much deeper, faster.

The positive effects of Dr. Posa’s treatments have changed my life and my perception of the world around me. Not being one to commit to any kind of program, I am now fully dedicated and consider my care to be preventative medicine. Dr. Posa’s network spinal analysis treatment, I feel has contributed to me having a happier fuller healthy life. I am deeply grateful and recommend these treatments to all my friends and family.
