How to Spin Away Your Aches & Pains with Spin Massage

Spin Massage – A quick way to relieve your aches and pains

by Kris Hallbom

I was in London, England working on a film project for a DVD series on Dynamic Spin Release. Tim and I decided to invite a small audience in to watch us film, and to volunteer as demonstration subjects. A woman in the audience, named Anne, had a sore throat that day and kept coughing during the filming. Normally the coughing wouldn’t bother me, but because we were filming, it became an issue with the film crew.

Fortunately, Anne was trying her best to not cough so loudly, and eventually the coughing stopped altogether. At the end of the day when we were done filming, Anne told us that she had done some spinning with herself, to get herself to quit coughing. “As I was watching you and Tim work with the other audience members, I kept massaging the lymph node on the right side of my neck,” she explained.

“Interestingly, I was massaging it in a circular motion that was going clockwise. At first, I didn’t even realize I’d been massaging my neck, because I had been doing it unconsciously to comfort myself.  But the more I massaged it, the worse I felt. It suddenly occurred to me that I was massaging it in the wrong direction, and I needed to reverse the direction of how I was massaging it. As soon as I did this, my throat immediately felt better, and I didn’t cough anymore after that, or for the rest of the day!” she said with a smile of her face.

It became clear to Tim and I that Anne must of released something as a result of massaging her neck. Because she had looked so sick when she first walked in the room that day, and now she no longer appeared to be sick. Instead of looking pale and white, she had more color in her face and a sparkle in her eye. She also seemed more present and associated into her body, and she was standing more upright.  And most important of all… she hadn’t coughed for the last half of the filming!

A couple of days later, we saw Anne and she had another interesting spin-massage story to tell us. The first thing she noted was that her sore throat and cough had not returned since the filming that day. She then told us how she used the spin massage technique to help her sister out. “My sister called me the other night when I got home from the filming project, and was complaining about her sore back. So I told her how to do the spin massage on her back, and the pain immediately disappeared. My sister couldn’t believe how fast it worked! She was absolutely stunned,” said Anne.

“All I did was have her put her hand on her back where the pain was, and then identify which direction it was spinning. As soon as she did this, I told her to massage the pain in the opposite direction, and to continue massaging it in a circular motion until the pain went away. What’s amazing to me is that we were able to do this on the phone, and it worked so quickly. I’m really glad I was able to help my sister,” she said.

Massaging your headaches away…

About a week later, I flew back to San Francisco. And the day after I got home, I had a little headache. I identified where the pain was on my head, and the direction of the spin. I then massaged it in the opposite direction until the pain went away. While I was massaging it, I also kept visualizing the pain leaving my head and imagined a golden light of healing energy filling the space where I was massaging. I couldn’t believe how fast the spin massage technique worked!

A horrible cramp in his foot and how he twirled it away…

I was out walking with a friend one day and he got a horrible cramp in his foot, and we had to stop walking because he was in so much pain. I watched him as he stood there trying to stretch out the cramp in his foot. I noticed that he kept twirling his foot around in a circular motion to work out the cramp. But his efforts didn’t seem to be working, and I seriously thought about calling a taxi, because he couldn’t walk.

However, it suddenly occurred to me that he had been twirling his foot in a clockwise motion– and that if he rotated it in the opposite direction, it might make a positive difference. So I asked him to gently rotate his foot in the opposite direction going counterclockwise, and to notice if that made a difference in his level of pain. He started twirling his foot counterclockwise, and within 10 seconds of doing that, the pain was gone! We didn’t have to call a taxi after all, and we were able to continue on with our afternoon walk.
