The MoveBeyondPain® audio
and video program is a comprehensive therapeutic
exercise program for effective chronic pain
management. The program is based on Ms.Gandhi's award winning research
study, now published in Women & Therapy
Journal. Ingeniously combining yoga
inspired breath awareness with body awareness,
clinical
exercise physiologist Namita Gandhi teaches
you the art and science of pain free living
by relaxing the mind, body, and spirit. Some
of the possible benefits of the MoveBeyondPain® program
are: reduced pain, fatigue and stress, ease
of movement, improved range of motion, better
sleep and improved quality of life.
The two hour MoveBeyondPain® video
contains guided relaxation, stretching and
toning exercises and aerobic exercise ideas
for cardiovascular health. It also contains
an educational interview with Ms.Gandhi
in
which she talks about the vicious cycle of
chronic pain and fatigue associated with
conditions such as Fibromyalgia, Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome, Arthritis,Chronic
Back Pain, Neck Pain, Myofascial
Pain and Chronic Headaches. The interview
also includes benefits of yoga inspired deep
breathing
and twenty pain management principles. The
four main MoveBeyondPain® program
components are breathing and relaxation,
stretching, strengthening
and aerobic conditioning for chronic pain
management. The audio CDs complement the
exercise video
in deepening the relaxation response and
effectively managing stress and insomnia. |

Clinical
research studies have suggested that relaxation
techniques such
as guided imagery, visualization, self-hypnosis,
autogenics and anchoring used in the MoveBeyondPain® audio
series are highly effective not only for inducing
a deep relaxation response, stress management,
and restorative sleep, but also in managing chronic
pain conditions such as
fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, arthritis, myofascial
pain syndrome,
whiplash injuries, headaches, fatigue, and generalized
muscle tension along with depression, anxiety,
cardiac and respiratory conditions, gastrointestinal
disorders, and diabetes.

is released from tension,
the mind's burden lightens.
