"My chronic back pain of 30 years was reduced to almost nothing."

"My chronic back pain of 30 years was reduced to almost nothing."

“Thank you Ryan Moschell! Truly amazing, after one session my chronic back pain of 30 years was reduced to almost nothing. Everything has been easier, walking, standing, sitting, better balance, easier breathing, etc… Not only am I out of pain but I feel even closer and more connected with my horses through my seat. What a great feeling..."  Felicitas

"I have gone from feeling completely hopeless to a place where I am truly happy and look forward to the future."

"To say that Ryan & Somatics changed my life would be an understatement. Ryan helped me to open my eyes & educated me through the most difficult time of my life. I have been in chronic pain since 2006, and for the first time in 9 years, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My husband and I searched for years and years for something, anything that would help alleviate my pain."  Ali

"I felt as if someone had taken chains off my rib cage."

"To my delight I can report improvement in my riding. My legs feel longer in the stirrups, meaning that my pelvic muscles are loosening. I can now access my ‘whole’ left side (back and legs) on the horse. This is allowing me finally to make balance adjustments and prevents falling in by one horse and helps alleviate a stiff left side reaction from another horse. My coach agrees that my riding has improved. Additionally I can breathe more freely..."   Mary Anne

So a week later, last Saturday, I paid a visit to Ryan in Annapolis. He listened attentively to my issue and asked a few questions. Within minutes, Ryan had figured out what the problem was and knew how to fix it. After a few movements, I immediately started to feel some relief. I left the studio with some instructions which I have followed, and I can honestly say that after only 2 days of following these instructions and taking the 10 minutes-twice-a-day needed to continue improving, I feel like a new person."  Anne

" I always feel so much better and the improvement lasts.”

“I first came to see Ryan a year ago for help with some chronic back, shoulder ,and hip issues that caused me pain and interfered with my ability to garden. I had had lots of bodywork previously but found Ryan and Somatics to provide me with relief and newfound comfort in moving."   Barbara

"I found myself more emotionally relaxed and easy going"

"I canceled my previously scheduled appointments and instead went to see Ryan to experience and learn more about how Somatic Education could help me.  It has changed my life!  I now am almost entirely pain free.  The best thing about it is that I am in control of dealing with my issue—I don’t have to rely on a doctor, therapist or chiropractor to temporarily “fix” me.  It was very empowering to take back control of my life through my Somatic education.  As a result of my sessions with Ryan..."  Claire

“Since learning Somatics with Ryan, I have had a lot of relief from chronic pain originating in childhood injuries, including severe shoulder and neck pain, migraines, and diaphragmatic breathing issues. I am grateful and relieved to see some light at the end of the tunnel..."  Felicia

"It is a huge step for me to not feel the panic from a tight chest and asthma symptoms"

"It is a huge step for me to not feel the panic from a tight chest and asthma symptoms"

"The benefits are Amazing… increased neck and shoulder mobility, my chronic hip bursitis is alleviated! Having been a lifelong asthma sufferer I can use the breathing techniques and chest/ back stretches and contractions to calm my chest tightness and asthma reactions to allergies and pollen sometimes even without the aid of medication. It is a huge step for me to not feel the panic from a tight chest and asthma symptoms..."  Elizabeth

"Having gone from attempting chronic pain management, and the realization that this chronic state and the “management” of it was what I had to look forward to for the rest of my life, as well as the possibility of having to quit my passion for my physical well being, to now having gained CONTROL..."  Amy
