“I had unrelenting pain in my neck, shoulder and arm for several years. I was told by my doctor to set up a date for surgery and prepare for a lengthy recovery. It would have meant time off of work, resulting in stress for my employer and family.Instead, Susan Green helped me to solve the problem using “Physical Solutions for Posture, Tension/Stress & Strain’s” Mitzvah Technique Chair Exercise. She altered how I satat my desk/computer/phone to take pressure off of my neck and shoulders and arm. Susan taught me new ways to release tension and relieve strain from sitting at the desk/computer/phone. Amazingly the pain completely went away within two weeks of adopting the Mitzvah Technique Chair Exercise to my work activities. Much to my relief, I now am pain free and do not require surgery.”

Susan Green’s Presentations, Workshops and Coaching
Prolonged and confined computer and work activities can cause aches and pains, resulting in costly time off work.  The gentle Mitzvah Technique helps provide immediate pain relief while teaching you tools to correct the source of the problem. You are taught to improve body usage during sitting, standing and walking through the gentle Mitzvah Technique exercises and its therapeutic table work. You can’t expect to correct problems by exercising or getting a treatment and then going back to the same old patterns that created the pain in the first place. So, most importantly, you learn to utilize your new relaxed and slouch free posture during daily, work and computer activities.

“The advent of the computer age, where people sit for endless hours slouching and poking of the head, poking their head from its alignment with the spine, tensing the neck and body and accumulating stress while working on the computer is hazardous to the performance of the body and to its health. The Mitzvah Technique shows a simple and natural way to prevent problems arising from this poor body use. This is part of the Mitzvah Technique discipline, which brings about an increased awareness to the tension and stress in the body and teaches how to counter and release it immediately.”
