The Yass Method

The Yass Method diagnoses and treats pain by interpreting symptoms. It achieves pain-free and full functional capacity within weeks, not months or years.

[The Yass Method @theyassmethod]

It’s been 40 years since the chronic pain epidemic began. There are zero signs that it is improving at all.

The Yass Method has shown that in more than 98% of cases treated over the past three decades the cause of pain was muscular even when structural abnormalities were identified by MRI.

The actual cause of pain in almost all cases based on my experience of over 3 decades is an invisible cause. When the force requirement of an activity is greater than the force output of the muscles performing the activity, muscles will strain and elicit pain. The problem is you can’t see the force requirement of the activity and you can’t see the force output of your muscle. Although this is fact it could only be understood conceptually.

The hard cold reality is that you will never have your pain resolved and achieve full function without 1st recognizing that the actual cause of your symptoms is from this force deficit and is completely unrelated to any finding on an MRI.

Let me show you now it’s forced deficit creating your pain not structure.

This guy has been suffering with horrific pain unable to weight bear or perform normal function based on a false diagnosis from interpreting an image that could never have determined whether he was bone on bone or not and yet a complete evaluation of the physical presentation of symptoms clearly showed that the cause of his pain and dysfunction was weakness of specific muscles involved in weight bearing and function.

[The Yass Method @theyassmethod]

Here is another case where a person was forced to suffer for several years because they were provided a false diagnosis based strictly on an image.

This gentleman remained having excruciating pain with weight bearing on his left leg simply because he was told he was bone on bone and surgery was his only option to end his pain. In my mind this is absolutely horrifying. Not one single person attempted to interpret the presentation of his symptoms at the ankle to either confirm or refute a diagnosis that was derived from nothing more than an image. And he had to suffer for years because of this consequence.

Upon arriving at his evaluation, he was limping horribly unable to put much weight on his left leg. The Yass Method prides itself on determining whether the cause of symptoms is structural or muscular within the first few minutes of any evaluation. A simple check of range of motion showed that he had exactly the same range of motion in the left ankle as the right ankle.

I will go through the complete evaluation in this post but you must understand that pain is not the indicator of whether bone on bone exists. A massive loss of range of motion and at the end of that motion it feels like a bone is hitting another bone is the only true physical indicator whether a joint is bone on bone. I will explain why massive numbers of people are getting joint replacement surgeries for absolutely no reason. This will explain why these surgeries have such a high failure rate.

This is another story of a person being misdiagnosed and unfortunately getting a hip replacement she did not need. After the failed hip replacement this woman’s mindset was that she was simply going to have to live with the growing pain she was experiencing and simply reduce her functional level. This is a horrific mindset.
I want to explain the sequence of events that occurred so you can understand why the false diagnosis was derived and how this may be a very similar circumstance you find yourself in.

This is another story of a woman who was asked to live with crippling pain for more than three years because of the inept medical establishment. Her pain was in the gluteal region posterior thigh and lateral shin. It affected her ability to perform most daily activities including caring for her infant children. In seeking care from the medical establishment she was asked to get an MRI of the lumbar spine which found a herniated disc at L5S1. Because it was found for the first time at the time of her symptoms it was asserted to be the cause of her symptoms. All treatment thereafter was based on this diagnosis. She obtained physical therapy on three separate occasions which did absolutely nothing to minimize her symptoms or improve her functionality. Eventually she was given an epidural nerve block which did nothing to minimize her symptoms or improve her functionality.

Based on a referral, she came to The Yass Method to be treated. She was evaluated based on the presentation of her symptoms along with an understanding of her history. We performed some treatment and a series of specific exercises and by the end of the first session her symptoms had reduced by 50 to 60% and her ability to function skyrocketed including the ability to roll back and forth on the treatment table with no pain. The thing I love most about these sessions is the fact that she now had an understanding as to the true cause of her symptoms and because it was muscular recognized she had the capacity in the next few weeks to become pain free and fully functional.

The Yass Method doesn’t just resolve symptoms. It gives people back the capacity to live their lives fully without symptom as it was meant to be. Three years of horrific pain reversed in one session is an example of what every person can expect when getting treatment through The Yass Method.

For everyone suffering with headaches or neck pain I think it is time to provide the understanding necessary to end your symptoms so you can live pain free and fully functional.

The Yass Method is a fitness based program that has shown that in more than 98% of cases treated over the past 30 years the cause of pain was muscular even when structural abnormalities were identified by MRI. Because of this understanding it has the greatest capacity to address muscular causes of musculoskeletal pain and symptoms. It understands how joints function, how muscles stabilize or move joints, how muscles create function, how muscles work synergistically to create function, what muscles when broken down create what types of symptoms. The understanding of the biomechanics of the body and how function occurs against gravity is unparalleled by any medical or non-medical methodology. This is why The Yass Method recognizes that the head and the neck is actually supported from the shoulder blade and that the health of both the neck and the head is directly correlated to the stability of the shoulder blade on the rib cage.

I will explain to you exactly how the head and neck is supported from the shoulder blade and why any treatment to the neck has absolutely no value in resolving headaches or neck pain. You have every right to this knowledge so that you can take the responsibility of correcting your own symptoms and functional level without the need of the failed medical establishment. Let me now show you how the head bone is connected to the shoulder blade.

I wanted to do this post to help people understand that the way they think about chronic pain and its cause is based on 40 years of coercion that is theoretically, clinically and scientifically baseless. I have spent the last seven months working with a former PGA player who is now a PGA caddy for the past 30 years. Seven months ago he was scheduled for spinal fusion because for eight years he was told that the cause of his pain at the lateral aspect of his lower back, his hip region and groin region was from herniated discs in the lumbar spine. This is all he knew about the cause of his pain. He tried everything they asked him to do including getting 15 epidural nerve blocks and yet nothing changed his symptoms and his capacity to play golf had disintegrated and for large periods of time after caddying he was forced to be bedridden.

Through word of mouth he heard about The Yass Method and decided it was time to try it. The first time he came in I evaluated him and based on the presentation of his symptoms, I was able to show him that the symptoms he was experiencing and the associated dysfunction he was experiencing had nothing to do with his spine at all.

He was told by three very prominent spinal surgeons that the weakness he was experiencing in his left leg would never return because it was associated with his spine. They actually told him that there was a chance that even if he got the spinal fusion his career as a golfer and caddy would have ended.

Within weeks his left leg was as strong as his right leg implementing this method. Not only has his symptoms been resolved but his functional level has skyrocketed. He recently played in and won the Florida Senior Open and has subsequently won another tournament. He does not describe pain any longer.

For the vast majority of people, the understanding of how the muscular system works is completely foreign. One of the biggest pieces of knowledge that is lacking is the fact that muscles come as pairs. If you are to perform a movement then there has to be an opposing muscle that creates the opposite movement or you would be there for the rest of your life.

In this post I am going to give examples of opposing muscles, some that people have heard of and some they have never heard of before. I will explain what happens if the two opposing muscles are not strengthened equally. I am sure for almost every person suffering with chronic pain one of these will sound extremely similar to the situation you find yourself in.

The Yass Method is extremely unique as it has applied the laws of physics, biomechanics, kinesiology, physiology, kinetics, kinematics and other sciences to strength training. No medical or non medical method has the capacity to develop strength in specific muscles in a faster period of time. This is why The Yass Method outcome measure is pain-free full function in weeks, not months or years.
If you are having symptoms or simply looking to optimize performance and strength training is the mechanism to achieve your goals, there is simply no other method that can accomplish the goal in the shortest period of time than The Yass Method. The method’s mission statement is optimal life through optimal performance. The understanding that strength equals function is at the core of the method. Whatever your functional goals are this is the method to use to get the capacity to achieve those goals in the shortest period of time.

Many people strain their calves by performing activities. It could be sports related, it could be hiking it could even be stair climbing.

If you don’t identify the cause and resolve the cause of the symptom, the calf strain will continue forever.

If you want to stop the calf from straining then you will have to understand how it works in function. Then you have to understand factors that can create excessive loading of the calf which leads it to strain.

If an excessive load is applied to a muscle and the force output of the muscle cannot match the force requirement it will strain. And until you establish where the excess force requirement is being created the calf will strain no matter how many times you rest it or take medications to address the symptoms of the calf strain. So now let me show you why calf strains are not arbitrary.

For more than 40 years you have been told that the answer to resolving your pain is to get an MRI which finds a structural abnormality for the first time at the time of the pain and is asserted to be the cause. This is theoretically, clinically and scientifically baseless. It is no wonder that the chronic pain epidemic has never subsided and that the number of people suffering actually continues to increase.

I think it's important to understand that the vast majority of mass of the body is muscle and yet muscular causes will never show up on MRI indicating that somehow the vast majority of mass of the body could never be the cause of pain.

In this blog post I will prove to you why in more than 98% of the cases treated over the past three decades the cause of pain was shown to be muscular even when structural abnormalities were identified by MRI. It is this understanding that has allowed The Yass Method to achieve the outcome measure of pain free full function in weeks where the medical establishments outcome measure is some modulation of pain but the pain continues indefinitely and there is never a discussion of functional level.

It is so disheartening to hear that so many people continue to live with chronic pain. One of the primary reasons for this is the fact that there is a lack of understanding that what needs to be treated is a tissue in distress and not the symptom being experienced.

How many of you have been treated for months or years and continue to have your symptoms experienced? Clearly the reason is because the appropriate tissue has not been identified. Regardless of what tissue is in distress it should never take more than weeks to resolve the distress of that tissue.

In The Yass Method the promotion of identifying the tissue in distress by interpreting the body’s presentation of symptoms is at the core of the diagnostic model.

This is another example of a person who suffered horrifically for years; of course she was falsely diagnosed and treated by the medical establishment. In this case things worsened greatly when her neck pain eventually affected her ability to sleep. Due to sleep deprivation life spiraled out of control and her stress levels skyrocketed. She was forced to try different techniques to reduce her stress but could never resolve the actual cause which was her neck pain.

With just one session, she was able to get the proper diagnosis and treatment. By the end of that session she was pain free and had full mobility of her neck. The most exciting part of the results was she had the best night sleep of her life and woke up invigorated in a way she hadn’t been able to in years.

Let me present to you another person saved from lifelong neck pain. https://t.co/xwA4GV9Xhd

[The Yass Method @theyassmethod]

The Yass Method focuses primarily on the presentation of symptoms and if the symptoms indicate a structure is the cause can then look to diagnostic tests to confirm or refute the findings. The interpretation of the body’s presentation of symptoms is at the core of the Hippocratic method of medicine. The medical establishment followed these principles until they replaced it with the MRI as the gold standard for identifying the cause of pain and other symptoms.
Symptoms are real and real time coming from the tissue in distress eliciting them. There is simply no better way to identify what tissue is in distress then interpreting the body’s presentation of symptoms. This is clearly what separates The Yass Method from any other form of treatment attempting to address musculoskeletal pain and other symptoms.

[The Yass Method @theyassmethod]

In my 3 decades of diagnosing and treating people and interpreting the body’s presentation of symptoms to identify the tissue in distress creating those symptoms, I have found that in more than 99% of the cases I have treated the symptom presentation was not what the symptoms should be if the identified structural abnormality from the MRI were to create pain or other symptoms. If you accept the idea that every tissue creates a specific symptom and every symptom is created by a specific tissue, if an identified structural abnormality creates a symptom and that is not the symptom present then you could say irrefutably that the structural abnormality is not creating the symptom being experienced. This is undeniable. Then there is the scientific evidence which shows as many people without pain can be found to have the same structural abnormalities as those with pain. Failure rates for surgeries treating structural abnormalities are unacceptable by any standard. Pain management is the default treatment for anyone seeking care for pain when everything else fails. All of this is clear, and anyone can see that this is 100% factual. All of this shows that the MRI in fact does not identify the cause of pain. It is simply identifying structural abnormalities that are independent to the tissue in distress eliciting the symptoms being experienced. This is why treatments to structural abnormalities virtually never resolves the symptoms.

Now I will describe the anomalies that can be seen in everyday existence which cannot be answered by the medical establishment. These anomalies are so glaring and actually account for a very high percentage of those experiencing pain.

In this post I want people to recognize that not only is chronic pain reversible and avoidable but optimal performance is completely obtainable by utilizing the same methods for resolving or preventing chronic pain. The Yass Method is the pathway to achieving this and will at some point be seen as the standard of care for both resolving pain and optimizing functionality. Let me show you why optimal performance is the birthright of every human being.
