Jesse, Here's my first testimonial regarding
ABC.
I just started using ABC and had adjusted a few patients
who were NOT in any acute pain and got great results.
Then a 48-year-old male presented with very severe lumbosacral
pain with associated left trunk antalgia. I evaluated and
treated using ABC protocols. He was originally showing
up as a right-sided MBS (major biomechanical stress side).
After the first treatment, I rechecked and he instantly showed
up as a left sided MBS so I treated him accordingly. He felt
better while standing but his antalgia did not change. He
also felt cont'd severe pain when standing from sitting. The
next morning was very tough for him with pain more unilateral
to the right sup. glut. area. I adjusted him as a left and
the right-sided pain was reduced but still no change in antalgia.
Frustrated, I phoned Jesse and we tried a few things over
the phone with a change but no major change in antalgia.
Jesse advised me the patient was very swollen but did fine
and to wait until later that day and treat again. Before I
let the patient go, I decided to try MY OLD STUFF which consisted
of side posture maneuvers. I had certainly seen these moves
work in the past and was clearly more comfortable with them.
After treatment the patient got up much worse with the full
return of the right sided pain and increased antalgia. I reevaluated
using ABC protocols and tx'ed him again as a left. This
resulted in a reduction in right-sided pain as before (thank
God). He returned 3 hrs later and I tx'ed him as a Left MBS
again but this time I noticed the meningeal release was easier
and resulted in mild cavitations of cervical joints (this
guys neck was extremely restricted - not because of neck pain,
just very tight). I also noticed that his lumbar spine segments
now moved so much easier.
As Jesse predicted, the patient returned the next day about
80 % better with little to no antalgia and much better ambulation.
He was amazed to say the least. His last bout with this type
of pain was in '94 - he saw another DC and it took about one
month to reduce just the antalgia and he was out of work for
2-3 months. His MRI from '94 shows 4 or 5 levels of disc bulging
with a major HNP at L3. Doing fine now.
From Jesse>>> If you are not sure call me. I understand
that though you may be technically good at doing the maneuvers
there is also the point of getting experience and understanding
what is occurring. This is a straight case of unlocking an
overlying overcompensation and then applying the protocol.
The swelling in cases like these rarely takes more than a
day or two to be down enough for the patient to function well.
That is why I say, If you can not get the person out of pain
in 2 days you need to call me.
After that they unwind through and off you go.

One more thought on Dr. Jesse Jutkowitz and
Advanced BioStructural Correction.
Dr. Jutkowitz says he'll give me the 1st rib
adjustment for the price of a phone call. So I try
it...and it works just like it was advertised to work.
I would really recommend making the phone call and giving
it a try.
I don't know Dr. Jesse from Adam Still havent met him,
have not been to a live seminar, I just got the Home Study
Program.
I, in no way shape or form, benefit from plugging
Advanced BioStructural Correction. Let me tell you the chronology of my attempts to bring spinal
correction into my practice.
Started with Peirce-Stillwagon
bought all the equipment
and was really disappointed. That was an expensive proposition!
Gravitated towards CBP...they had the published research...but
if you look at their paper on curve correction they treated
their patients EVERY day for something like six weeks (including
weekends)...this was disappointing because I don't practice
every day and their is no way my patients are going to commit
to this type of schedule. AND, you needed to buy all their
special equipment $$$$thousands.
Then I checked out Pettibon...he has head weighting and wobble
chair rehab which were really cool advances in spinal correction...he
claims that he can create a major correction in cervical curve
in about a month...and sometimes he can -- but not
consistently. You can too -- sometimes, IF YOU BUY ALL
THE SPECIAL EQUIPMENT! However, significant curve correction
in a month I feel is well worth it.
The Pettibon procedures did seem to offer relatively quick
changes. Then along comes ABC claiming immediate post-adjustment
changes. And, it does.
AND... unlike PST, CBP and Pettibon... There is definitely a WOW factor when a patient's resting
posture is slumped and 30 seconds later their resting posture
is not slumped.
It is worth the phone call and frankly I would like to hear
feedback from you guys after you have tried it. If there was
a major investment I would not be plugging the technique on
this site. But since you can get a taste of the technique for
a phone call...if it doesn't work for you…you probably won't
be out in front of my office with pitch forks and torches.
