KST A to Z
Low back pain – don’t “treat”

I was manually adjusted for side posture over 30 years ago, and since then couldn't sleep longer than 7 or 8 hours without waking with a low back problem, feeling very stiff and restricted.
Since my first KST seminar, that has all disappeared! What we must remember is not to intellectualize what we are doing. Let the body dictate what it needs. Clear the 'blockage,' step back, and let the body do the repair work.
By the way, I do not use the word 'treat' as that is the medical model; we are not treating anything.

They are not medical advice, do not establish that KST treats or cures any disease, and should not be used as a reason to delay appropriate or emergency care or independently discontinue prescribed medication.
