Synopsis

BETTER RESULTS WITH LESS EFFORT, the TUXEN METHOD is a new philosophy and application of the ancient technique of therapeutic cupping based on modern physical therapy, massage therapy, and a thorough clinical reasoning, while integrating a knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathology. With Tuxen Method you can treat the same conditions as with conventional massage, but you can expand your area of clinical application and get potentially far better results. The Tuxen Method is also a great tool to combine with massage therapy, as well as with other mobilization and stretching techniques. Most modern massage therapy techniques ignore the needs of the therapist, leaving you continually exhausted, leading many to change careers. We want to help you free yourself from the exhaustion and pain in your career, while providing top-notch treatment opportunities for your patients. And if you work with musculo-skeletal problems or athletes in your clinic, this is the book for you.

"This is by far the most effective treatment method I have received in my running career."

--ELISE, runner, 36

"I am now back on my bike again and working, pain-free, at my job."

--MORTEN, cyclist, 26

"I am now back at work and feel that I have gotten a second chance to take care of my health."

Review

PRAISE FOR TUXENMETHOD
I WAS SUFFERING from what seemed to be more and more of a chronic hip pain. The pain started after a marathon I ran and gradually began to affect my everyday life. Soon I was no longer able to run and had pain in everyday activity such as walking and even playing with the kids. I tried to rest and do exercises, and I tried dry needling with limited effect. The first time I tried the Tuxen Method I felt a burning sensation in my hip immediately after the initial treatment, and the day following I noticed a huge difference. In fact, after just after five sessions my hip was pain free and I am now active again running marathons and enjoying my life. This is by far the most effective treatment method I have received in my running career. --ELISE, runner, 36
I WAS EXPERIENCEING a backache that started when I was biking for several hours. I also experienced my back pain in my work as a mechanic. I had tried chiropractic, exercise, and had officially given up my cycling career after suffering from back pain for two years before I tried the Tuxen Method. After only two treatments I had greater mobility in my back than I had had in two years. I could feel for the first time in a long time that my back muscles were relaxed when walking and cycling. I am now back on my bike again and working, pain-free, at my job. --MORTEN, cyclist, 26
I WAS STRUGGLING WITH a chronic dizziness and neck pain after being an educator in a kindergarten, working full-time and being a single mother. I was lacking sleep, and in the end dizziness put me on my sick leave. I was not able to take care of my daughter nor was I functioning in my job or everyday life. The doctors said that there was nothing I could do, but give it time and give it some rest. After receiving the Tuxen Method to my head and neck it felt like a huge, heavy helmet was removed from my head. I felt more focused and could really feel the blood flow improving in my neck, which previously (and constantly) felt cold and stiff. The Tuxen Method was life saving for me! I am now back at work and feel that I have gotten a second chance to take care of my health. --BRIT JORUNN, child welfare leader, 33
HAVING A LONG CAREER working as a full-time chef, all parts of my body were suffering. I was used to having pain on a daily basis and pain was just a part of my everyday life that I had learned to accept--shoulder pain, back pain, elbow pain, tired legs--these were just a few of my complaints. I was told that this was a price I had to pay to be a chef with a heavy body build. After receiving the Tuxen Method on my whole body I can say with certainty that chronic pain can be removed, even if you have had the pain for several years. In fact I have never felt as healthy nor younger than I do today. --ATLE, chef, 39
I HAD SUFFERED from chronic sinus problems ever since my early teenage years and had tried anything I could, from change of diet, conventional medicine, and more, to see if my sinus problems would improve. It was only when I tried the Tuxen Method that I felt a sudden, new, drainage from my sinus. I no longer wake up every morning with chronic sinus pain and dry eyes. When having complaints so long, you don't know how good the quality of your life can be when you don't have your everyday pain anymore. The Tuxen Method has been the only really effective treatment I have tried that made an immediate difference to my problem. --MARIT, offshore oil worker, 33
