Testimonials End Your Carpal Tunnel Pain Without Surgery

…continuing our work in Ergonomics, Risk Management, and Workplace Safety, we incorporate Kate’s book with every evaluation and training we conduct.

The instructional book Ms. Montgomery has created is informative easy to follow and well crafted.  Her Method places responsibility squarely where it belongs into the hands of those suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome.  I recommend this book for anyone suffering from CTS and for all health professionals who attempt to treat this syndrome.  It is a great self-care tool.

Kate Montgomery has written a wonderful guide for the layperson for the prevention of repetitive strain injury as it relates to helping them assess their own posture and to incorporate a regular fitness program. The techniques and recommendations will enable them to help themselves and minimize the consequences of postural stress on their body and in their life.

The Montgomery Method is safe, cost effective and eliminates the need for surgical intervention in most cases.  The exercises are simple and easy to do, with minimal amount of instruction.  The corrective techniques are designed to be done anywhere!  It is an answer to decreasing the workers compensation problem and getting employees back to work with minimal or no work time lost.  I highly recommend this program.

...it's extraordinary that the one part of your body that you rely on to work and communicate with is taken so much for granted until something goes wrong! Regardless of what capacity you use your hands, whether it be punching into a laptop or being a concert pianist, you'd do well to put Kate Montgomery's program at the top of your health regimen.

 I first met Kate Montgomery in 1990, and have been impressed with her work ever since. Single-handedly, she has transformed the concept of prevention in the workplace with simple exercise and self-care programs – The Montgomery Method™ – that save time, money and relieve pain. Whether it is industrial workers, or lead guitar rockers, Kate has taken the concept of carpal tunnel injury prevention and expanded it to the occupational medical world – saying that “people can prevent their own injuries through self awareness and daily ADLs. Her background in healthcare, massage therapy, public speaking, writing and product development puts her in a class by herself – in a profession where many professionals wait to see what restrictions the doctor has ordered, and how long the worker will be out after surgery. Today more companies “get it”, and want these type of preventive approaches. Kate was on this bandwagon 20 years ago. I am honored to endorse her and her tremendous work.

The Montgomery Method promises to help thousands of suffering people for a fraction of the energy, money and time by using some of the safe and simple methods of chiropractic, applied kinesiology, and massage therapy in an easy to use and organized fashion. I recommend it to anyone with a repetitive strain injury as a noninvasive approach first.

This book will help you! I read this book a few years ago and have practiced the exercises in it hundreds of times. I do not have carpal tunnel syndrome, but I do have other repetitive stress issues with my hands, wrists and arms and find the routines to be very curative for my now occasional pain. When I first started, I was in a lot of pain and this method really changed things for the better. I consider it an essential resource for anyone who uses their hands primarily for their living. A close relative is a long time professional guitar player, I recommended the book to him and he is grateful for it as well. I purchased the book recently because my daughter has begun a career in massage therapy and I know it will be helpful to her for self-care between clients. I really can't say enough about how much these exercises and stretches have improved my life and extended my career as an office manager who spends most of the day at a computer. The Montgomery Method really works!

Two weeks after I attended a workshop on carpal tunnel syndrome Kate had given, my face was severely scratched in a dog and cat fight. My injuries required five hours of plastic surgery and 40 stitches. Remembering Kate's story about a young girl, I called as soon as I could to get her Herbal Healing Balm. For the next four months I applied the herbal balm directly over the scars every night. Today, two years later, people that see me now, friends and family are amazed that I have no visible scarring whatsoever. I tell them it is completely due to the HHBalm. Today I use Kate's herbal balm for everything, in my massage practice, for all my sore muscles (I race, in-line skate) and for any cuts or abrasions I get. It is the best and I wouldn't go anywhere without it. Thanks Kate for giving me back my face!

About a year ago, Kate happened to walk into my store and see me in wrist braces for what I was told to be carpel tunnel. She asked if she could do a couple of things to my arms that might help, and it did. I was pain free for about a year until, all the heavy and improper lifting of bee keeping brought the electrical current shooting into my arms and hands again. I reconnected with Kate, this time for a full session with some homework. I can tell you, from someone who lived with wrist braces, P.T. and gabapentin for nerve pain, I am pain free today! Kate's work is positive, heartfelt and thorough. I will follow through with more visits and do the homework to help keep my health balanced. Thank you Kate for your incredible healthy and positive work!
