A True Innovation

“NMR is a true innovation in the field of bodywork and physical therapy.” 

Jerry Goynias PT, Medical Massage School

Wish I had this knowledge 10 or 20 years ago

 “The level of supervision/teaching assistance was extraordinary! It was as if we had our own teaching assistant right there with us in the room in person. I am a very big proponent of NMR, And I really wish I had this knowledge 10 or 20 years ago!” 

Mary Luckey PT

New hope to chronic pain patients

“As both a client and a referring pain management professional, I have observed remarkable progress and musculoskeletal pain relief through NMR. It can provide a real sense of progress and new hope to chronic pain patients.”

Sande Kiriluk, MFT

Has been a game-changer for me in patient care

“Big thanks for your inspiring insights on muscle testing! Your teaching has led me to adopt what I now call Motor Control Activation Testing (MCAT) in my practice. Using the term muscle testing in the PT world gets confused with strength testing. MCAT moves beyond traditional muscle testing, focusing not on strength but on the intricate relationship between muscles and the nervous system. This shift towards understanding neuromuscular coordination in a more holistic way has been a game-changer for me in patient care.”  

Robert Shapiro DPT

Leaps and bounds beyond the way the medical industry currently operates

The knowledge and application that has gone into this modality is far beyond what I have seen in the massage and bodywork industry and leaps and bounds beyond the way the medical industry currently operates. Highly recommended for everyone that is looking to solve the root of their clients’ problems.”

Jared P. Robinson,‎  fitness trainer

Einstein of the massage profession

“She provides to the massage profession an equivalence of what Einstein provided to physics.”

Michael Koplen DC

Inundated with work

“The changes and advances that I have been witnessing in my clients are really quite exciting, to them as well.  I am so inundated with work that I have had to make a statement on my website to the effect that at the present time I am not accepting new clients.  I raised my price too — no one complains.  They just pay more and keep coming… In my wildest dreams I never thought I would get to this point.”

A sophisticated piece of work

“NMR helped me to connect the concepts together and that has added tremendous excitement to my work every day. I also appreciated a smaller class size, because it allowed me to have a lot of access to the instructor”

Mila Hutchinson
San Francisco, California

Amazed at the painless results

“It really does make deep tissue massage almost irrelevant… People who are used to it are amazed at the painless results. It certainly makes sessions go fast, too.  I feel like a detective, looking for clues and solving mysteries and the time just flies by.   The best part is when people get up feeling better right away. Of course, they aren’t “mended” in one session, not when they have years of patterning to overcome.   But there is almost always a visible and internally observable shift immediately. Just the hope that they can feel better and find their way out of pain is huge.  Thanks, Jocelyn! I am so glad I decided to invest in this class.”

Contributed SO much to my life

“I wanted to thank you for the advanced neck class last month. I appreciated the material and spending some time under your tutelage again after many years! Your work/teachings have contributed SO much to my life, and through my offerings, to the well-being of hundreds more over the past 12 years. The extent of your reach is immense. I hope to return for more classes again soon.
With gratitude and blessings,”

Opens up a lot opportunities for me

“I have learned a lot from the NMR courses that I have taken with you and it has been the best money I have spent on education; well worth it. I have been using it on a regular bases and it opens up a lot opportunities for me. Thank you.”

Dmitriy Gmyr, Physical Trainer

I decided to go to the source of this art with Jocelyn Olivier

“Taking NMR was everything I thought it would be, as I had high expectations after having learned and used many other “muscle testing” modalities with great success over the last 15 years. But it seemed that, as happy as my clients were being pain free, greater range of motion etc. I felt as if I were missing something as some of my clients were coming back with similar (if not the same symptoms) upon their return visit. The sloped shoulders continued, the hard paraspinals stayed rock hard, ROM did not improve. So I decided to go to the source of this art with Jocelyn Olivier who has over 40 years of experience creating and refining NeuroMuscular Reprogramming NMR.”

A big difference in my capacity to have results for my clients in my practice

“Overall, NMR has definitely made a big difference in my capacity to have results for my clients in my practice. NMR has given me access to finding innovative and effective solutions for my clients.  As a direct result of the NMR training, I now have the capacity to see with new eyes and comprehend and correct structural imbalances in my clients.  My bodywork practice has taken on a new level of adventure and satisfaction as I work in partnership with my clients. Looking forward to continuing to grow and learn as a bodyworker. Thank you!”  

Patricia Hatfield

You could visually discern a difference in seconds. I would not have believed it if I did not see it.

What I found most helpful of all was how to “feel” with NMR.  Jocelyn was pulling, rotating, and using end feel of ROM on limbs, torso, neck and spine. She was palpating areas of tightness or flaccidity and teaching us how to use this approach as our guide. Literally, muscles that needed puffing, “puffed up” and rock hard ones let go and became more pliable . You could visually discern a difference in seconds. I would not have believed it if I did not see it. I also appreciate that she is always there to get back to any questions I may have on particularly difficult issues and or clients and things to look for that I may not have thought of, or tried. I can tell you after applying NMR on my clients, after re coordinating or re-patterning how their bodies move, I am seeing more of my clients able to maintain their posture more efficiently with less resistance, less tension, and less discomfort.”

A brilliant, groundbreaking therapy that should be everywhere

“I want this work to be spread to the world! You have put together a brilliant, groundbreaking therapy that should be everywhere!! Thanks again for your support and guidance and for providing us with a modality that we can evolve with, that does not get boring and is sooo effective!”

Gina Rathbun-Dilles

Goes beyond everything I thought possible with bodywork

“This modality is truly revolutionary and goes beyond everything I thought possible with bodywork. Your knowledge and understanding of the body is vast and I am truly humbled by the energy, time and dedication you’ve given to this work. You say ‘NMR uses strategy, not force’ and you are 100% correct. But without 100% of your life’s work in this field, it would still be a mystery to us. So thank you for shining a light on this “hidden” capacity of the human body to self-heal, self-correct and reprogram itself with the gentle assistance of a skilled practitioner in NMR. You are awesome.” 

Laura Gadwah

So amazing! The info translates, even via zoom!

“Today, I used a fraction of what we learned about the neck in Module 3, and she left feeling 100% better, pain free and able to move freely. I had 3 other clients today with similar issues with the posterior chain & I was quickly able to assess and address what was going on. Since taking Module 1 with you, my sessions are more effective and comprehensive. So amazing! The info translates, even via zoom! Looking forward to taking an in-person class with you soon! Loved this class. Everything I learned here was easy to integrate into my practice and helped me work smarter and faster.”

The foundation of any body work

NMR is like Maslow’s Heirarchy of Needs Pyramid.  It’s the foundation of any body work!    

Julie Carabia

Who knew Brain Buttons could do this?

“I was training an older client(80+) with hearing aids, one eye partially blind and wears compression socks, so visual, vestibular and proprioceptively challenged…I have trained her to the point she is quite accomplished at balance work, split stance neutral, but this day she was all over the place like she was drunk. In the same room was another trainer and client going through their repertoire. I noticed her increasing agitation with the noise coming from the other people and her motor control dropping off, so I cut it short, sat her down and cued her through brain buttons. After maybe a minute we got back up and went through the routine again with NO motor problems, balance was 100 percent better and the other folks still babbling away with whatever they were doing, so no alteration with noise reduction or movement distraction (she could see them, I could not). It was a result way better than I could have hoped for.”

Kylie Riggs, Pilates instructor  NMR Therapist

It took both my assessment and treatment skills to a new level

“Over the past 8 years, I’ve been incorporating Neuromuscular Reprogramming into my 30yr massage practice. It fits superbly into an integrated, anatomical yet holistic approach, and definitely took both my assessment and treatment skills to a new level. NMR teaches you how to find neural and muscular relationships causing dysfunctional coordination and weakness. The most fun part is seeing the change in my clients as they rediscover themselves in function, strength and movement ability. Today, my son asked me to help his cramping hands. Without NMR, I never would have thought to check up into neck rotation and eyeball/suboccipital muscle movement, yet that was the biggest relationship causing spasms in both hands.”
