Timeless
my daily knee pain has reduced from a 9 to a 2 in just two one hour table sessions.

Made it through Day 1 of our 4th Wellness Retreat by Chris Kidawsky. I’ve had the pleasure of participating in each one, yet, I learned a bunch of new things I didn’t catch before. So grateful for his incredible expertise. I honestly don’t know how he remembers 90% of the facts he shares.

The last five months I’ve been suffering through intense knee pain. The best orthopedic surgeon of the island took x-rays and told me I have no cartiledge left in my knee. As a result, he said that I will have knee pain the rest of my life. He prescribed pain medication and knee replacement surgery if I can’t take the pain any more.

Chris sees it differently. He directed me to start taking peptides to regrow my cartiledge. He began physically working on pain that is stored in my connective tissue (fascia), finding adhesions in my hamstrings and glutes which are actually causing the bone-on-bone issue. Releasing these adhesions moves the bones back in proper position making the lack of cartiledge less impactful. This in turn reduces my knee pain proving that it is just a symptom, not the root cause. Instead of pain medicine and surgery, my daily knee pain has reduced from a 9 to a 2 in just two one hour table sessions.

I wish we could all get better care like this rather than getting peddled pharmaceuticals that do nothing to solve the actual problems.

Below is one of Chris’s eleven books on wellness.

Key lesson: Pain is often a symptom, not the root cause — treat the source and the symptom can dissolve.

Summary: Day 1 of the wellness retreat: two hours of fascia work cut his chronic knee pain from a 9 to a 2, no surgery needed.
