I started receiving BSR treatment about a year ago and it has greatly improved my general wellbeing. The regular monthly release helped me solve longstanding neck and back stiffness, making my body and mind able to cope much better with a stressful lifestyle.

I highly recommend Lorraine Blouin as a BSR practitioner: she's attentive and dedicated in addressing your health issues and she offers useful advices for prevention too.

I used to not be able to sleep on my side. My right knee was so sore and swollen that I couldn't walk without pain. My lower back hurt every time I bent over or wanted to lift something.

After the BSR sessions I improved little by little. I can sleep on the side again, my knee is no longer swollen or painful and my back doesn't hurt anymore when I bend forwards. I am super satisfied with BSR and want to continue with the treatments.

I was suffering from back problems for a very long period. Therefore I was under treatment by a physiotherapist. These treatments would bring pain relief, but only after a few sessions and it would always return.

Lorraine's first BSR treatment immediately meant a clear improvement. After a few sessions the pain was gone, and it hasn’t returned since.

A small investment, but with great result.

Lorraine Blouin has helped me get my body back on track with BSR. Through the years I had accumulated lots of small but uncomfortable pains.

BSR helps my body to work through the many layers of tension. After a few sessions my neck, which had been stuck for a long time, has regained its mobility. I generally feel freer in my movement and recover quicker.

BSR has been more efficient than anything I ever tried before. Merci beaucoup!

In May 2015 I made an appointment with the neurologist in regards to constant pain in my left shoulder. The pain radiated to my arm and hand and, besides feeling immobile, I had difficulty sleeping. I was told an operation would be the only option to take care of the pain.

I knew that my upstairs neighbor, Lorraine Blouin, had completed the BSR course in South Africa. I told her about my shoulder problem and my resistance to the proposed surgery. She explained the BSR technique to me. The special gentle approach in combination with the idea of the body's possibility to repair itself appealed to me tremendously.

In addition, I suffer from depression. The years of building up an enormous amount of stress, suddenly enhanced by the hampered function of my body, also had a negative effect on my mind.

Now a year later, my neck hernia as well as my lower back pain have disappeared. My improved condition has had an impact on my mind. Clearing stress has also given me relief in this area. Regular BSR sessions have brought back my confidence in my own body's capacity.

In addition, Lorraine's advice on adopting good posture was tremendously valuable. At first, certain things did not seem like feasible options. Meanwhile, they have become so obvious and energy enriching that I'm still amazed.

The BSR technique, coupled with Lorraine's warm and caring approach, is invaluable to me. I look forward to every session as it continues to give me a constant feeling of progress.

I had back problems during a dozen years and had already undergone a whole process. A specialist, several physiotherapists, manual therapists and acupuncture had not helped, and then all those painkillers. I spent a lot of hours lying on the couch.

About a year ago I heard about BSR. "BSR, never heard of it!" was my response. I wanted to try. "you never know" was my first thought.

After a few treatments I noticed results. I could shop independently again and after a few months I could climb stairs and use public transport since, until this time, I could only access trains and trams with a low entry.

The cramp in my leg is gone and I no longer need painkillers. I now only have a BSR session once in a while for prevention sake.

Too bad I heard of it so late, but better late than never.
