Before seeing Lorrie Jollimore my body couldn’t remember how to hold itself up. My once agile, flexible body was brick-like; stiff, heavy, and lacking fluidity. The motor vehicle accident from Feb 1, 2021, gave me a concussion and confused my nervous system, making it a struggle for me to push myself further than a simple walk. I went from deadlifting 200 pounds to struggling to carry my groceries. Post-concussion syndrome made everything worse. After almost two years of treatment with no relief, I finally found Lorrie. I started sleep-walking for the first time since childhood, which lasted for about two weeks. Within one month of therapy the daily ice pick headaches came to a halt. After two months I started to sleep sans nightmares, and the new found post-MVA rage started to dissipate. I’ve never been an angry person but after the concussion it wouldn’t take much to flare up this deep, dark, internal anger. At first the lessons were so exhausting that I needed to drink a large coffee and wait for an hour before I could even drive home, where I would almost instantly fall into a deep sleep. Now I can drive home right away, no exhaustion, no coffee or naps necessary. My brain is changing and I can feel it.

My eye doctor reports the photophobia (extreme light sensitivity) and receding point of convergence (how my eyes focus) are back to normal levels. She noticed a heightened sense of ease when doing the eye tests, and I got through the tests much quicker than before ABM treatment.

Rather than dread, I now wake up with joy and energy. I still am not sure how she does it, but I have found vitality for the first time in 2+ years. My morning “brick feet” with which I was becoming all too familiar, now have toes again. IBS symptoms are at an all-time low. I am starting to feel at-home in my own body again.

I feel light, excited for life, and I am strong! I hope that I will be a high performer athlete once again. I am not scared, angry, or in unbearable pain. The headaches are gone, the tingling numbness across my shoulder blades have halted, almost completely. Instead of every week, I now get treatment every 2 weeks, which will soon turn to every 4, until I no longer need reminders that I don’t have to live in pain. I also have less OCD and anxiety symptoms. My mind is more calm and I feel generally more whole, my body and mind reconnected, confident in everyday activities, strong to take on the day. Before finding Lorrie I saw 6 different therapists but I still felt broken. Now I see a future without pain, and without therapy.

(results after 23 lessons over 6 months)

“What I found most interesting in her approach was the way by which she was encouraging me to ‘feel’ my body and various areas of my body where she was focusing on. I became very mindful of the area where I was experiencing much pain but also the areas surrounding the pain. It was almost like I was tuning into these ‘non-painful’ areas in order to ‘wake them up’ so to speak so they could play a bigger role in supporting of mitigating the painful area.

In a very short period of time I was becoming mindful of my body and areas that seemed to have been forgotten because of my focus on the pain area. The next day my muscle spasm was gone.”

“NeuroMovement with Lorrie has changed my life years after I’d given up hope of improvement.

My body had lost the ability to just be, without unconsciously holding in a misguided attempt to lessen the back/neck/head pain/concussion symptoms after a corkscrew whiplash car accident well over a decade ago. I felt totally blissed out after my first session, as Lorrie helped my brain relearn how to let my body just be.

Underneath the back/neck tension a lot of healing had actually already happened and so I had a huge transformation in posture that day alone. Since then my symptoms have reduced or disappeared, and progress continues with every session.

If you have a concussion, or mild brain injury, this should be the prescribed treatment. If you have a sore back or neck, this should be at least part of the treatment.”

“My 4 year old son was diagnosed with Autism June 2021, they said although he had some words (8- 10 words) for the most part he did not use his speech in a functional way and because of that he was considered non-verbal. He never used two words together. I started the Sound Therapy for my son  August 22, 2021, and today four weeks later when his grandma picked him up from Pre-K and said to him “lets go home and see mama” he said “Mama go”. I am so happy and so grateful Lorrie bought this into her practice.

I have also noticed he sleeps better, he seems more aware of his surrounding, he wakes up in a better mood and he has a longer attention span.

My biggest fear when starting the Sound Therapy was how I would get him to listen as he hates things on his head. I just put it on after he falls asleep. I put it on every night from between 30-60 mins. I truly believe this is helping my son!”

“Lorrie, I have had amazing results from the treatment I had with you a few weeks ago. Both of my knees felt normal for the first time in 10 years. I was so amazed at the change in my body, my walk and level of comfort continually increased over time!”

“Lorrie helped me recover after my back surgery (L4-L5). After the first lesson I was pain free for 24 hours! After about 6 lessons I was able to move more freely than I had been able to in a long time.”

“Lorrie has been giving me lessons for a while now. I have always found her lessons to provide immediate and tangible results, but I was blown away after our last lesson! I am recovering from back surgery, and have extensive nerve and muscle depletion on my left side. As a result, I had been unable to lift my heel off the floor on that side since before my surgery. It simply did not move when I tried to lift it.

After a lesson with Lorrie, I was surprised when I tried to lift that foot and it worked! It was a small movement, but it was more mobility than I have had in a months. It continues to improve!”

“When I walked out of the office after my first lesson, I thought, “This is something beyond rehabilitation.” I was then, and continue to be, a very active person. 

Even though I maintained a healthy lifestyle, I was always dealing with minor injuries. I ran the gauntlet of traditional forms of rehabilitation—physiotherapy, osteopathy, massage, acupuncture, dry needling—and nothing brought more than temporary relief until I experienced ABM. 

In that moment, I discovered something that would make a real difference to my constant injuries; a difference on a more fundamental level than just stretching, manipulating, and strengthening muscles. After my first lesson, I felt entirely grounded and free to move: it was the realization that I hadn’t known how not to be tense. And that night, I had the best sleep of my life!.”

“I highly recommend Lorrie Jollimore and ABM. I had a fall four years ago and have a concussion/TBI. Before I received treatment from Lorrie I was unable to feel my feet touching the ground. It was like living on a sway bridge. My brain now communicates with my feet again.

This is huge for me! She has helped me figure out how to swing on and off a therapy horse. I can have a shower without holding the wall now. Each time I’m there I have better balance and mobility. Such great improvements adding to the quality of my life and reducing my chances of falling. Many thanks for improving my life and health.”

“Lorrie, thank you for yesterdays’ class…I feel so much better, and was at aquasize today, and was telling everyone who had pain, and aches about you and how you helped me! I will definitely sign up for weekend sessions, or one on one, as I was living with pain in my hip for at least 5 years, and now I have comfort, and can move with ease.”
