This is email is being sent to let you know of the great success I have had with the O'Connor Techniques. From time to time over the last 20 years I have had lower back problems. Every 3-4 years I would have a case of acute pain that required me to go to the doctor. Each time the doctors gave me muscle relaxer and a exercise sheet to strengthen my stomach muscles. I recently started taking martial art and started to experience back pain on a regular basis. The throws, exercise, tumbling, and other movements kept me in pain constantly. I was determined to stay in martial arts so I sought ways to deal with my back pain. I visited my wife's chiropractor and he proceeded to give me his assessment. This assessment was at a discount ($27.00) compared to the $120.00 (full price) he charged when I visited him years earlier. He gave me his findings and offered to sign me up for treatments. Treatments (Total of $1320) consisted of 32 visits to his office three times a week. After he told me he could not guarantee me the results (no misalignments), I decided to try something else. Then I came across your website. I read through as much as I could on the website before buying the book. I focused on my specific problem (lower back, left side). I tried the maneuvers and got some improvements. On another occasion, after a strenuous martial arts testing I was experiencing tremendous lower back pain. I purposely waited a few days, not wanting to do any maneuvers while I was in pain. I used the rope, pillows, and bed. Within minutes I was able to move without pain. I have been very pleased with the results. Thanks so much for spreading the word about the O'Connor Techniques. By the way, I finally discontinued martial arts. It was not worth the efforts to do it and risk causing serious back problems.

Dr. O'Connor, I will never be able to repay you for the information you have so skillfully, intuitively provided in your book. I particularly found the clown illustrations to be beneficial. While laboring to not tell you more about myself, I can relay that I was more than prepared to speak with the neurosurgeon at Kaiser Sacramento last week regarding my extruded disc problem. I mentioned your name hoping to get a rise out of him but he hadn't heard of you. (typical of these doctors fresh out of med school who will not read anything of the 21st century upon graduation until necessary). If there is such a thing as a saint, you have met the criteria in my lessons observed in this journey we call "life". May you have peace. May you have prosperity. And above all, may you have love. When I am listening to the radio, I am a KGO fan and have called in several times over the years. The reception however doesn't come in very well out here unless you're in a car. BUT, everyone I know and will know, will happen upon your findings as I have gone from a constant 8 (10 being greatest on the scale of my pain) to about a nagging 1 here and there. My flexion without traction is still difficult at best but I am virtually pain free, standing, walking etc... By using the correct movements to pick up items, get out of cars, BALE HAY, I am almost back in the game. The accident itself was enough to change my life and the way I move, but it's just about a ressurection experience for me to be able to somewhat delicately go on. Hey! I did the dishes this morning! I stopped having a sciatica pain that would last for hours upon waking; I stopped feeling this (that would cause me to limp) on about the 5th active day of applying the manuevers. However, the pain in my back was instantaneously relieved. I have gotten so much better that it is becoming easy to neglect my manuevering sessions. My family, having endured this journey towards wellness with me, knows what I mean when I say,"Later, gotta go to traction...."

Dear Dr. O'Connor, Its been 6 months now since I came to visit your office and I am glad to say things have changed dramatically. After reading your book and visiting you in person, your techniques have given me new freedoms after suffering with back pain for over 3 years! My visit to you (from Texas) was very productive as you were able to get my disk back in. Things progressed as I was able to return to serious cycling, a life long passion of mine. I was able to go and watch the Tour de France this past July and ride Hors Category mountains (hardest climbs in Europe) with no major problems. I had an unforgettable trip. But being the competitive person I am, I pushed it a little too hard and pushed the disk out while I was there. Upon returning home, I began using your maneuvers and was able to get my disk back into place and felt the best I felt if over 3 years. Having the knowledge and confidence to be able to "work" my disk back into place, has change my life. Thank you for your techniques, maneuvers, knowledge, and willingness to educate others on how they can deal with disk problems. Best of luck with your continued work.
