My mission is to dramatically reduce the multi-trillion-dollar global economic impact of Systemic Chronic Inflammation (SCI) by producing online public instruction for a manual, non-invasive method based on Traditional Chinese Medicine that may theoretically resolve these conditions.


BACKGROUND:

In 2001, I discovered a Jin Shin* flow dramatically accelerated and improved stroke recovery for a 77-year old client.

* Jin Shin is an acupressure method rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The same acupoints used in Acupuncture are lightly held, one point with each hand, until the acupoint pulses synchronize, indicating harmony is restored in the relationship between those two points. There are different sequences of points called "Flows" that are used like formulas to free and harmonize the flow of Chi in the body to restore or maintain mental, emotional and physical homeostasis. 

My client had ~5% mobility on her right side. Near the end of the sequence, her right arm and leg repeatedly extended involuntarily with 100% range of motion. 

When the session was complete, she had gained 5% mobility. 

2 Physical Therapists observed subsequent sessions and were completely baffled and unable to explain these results.

My client continued to gain 5% mobility with each weekly session until she recovered 100%. 

I immediately looked up all the research I could find, but there were only two studies on Acupuncture for stroke recovery that showed no significant results. 

As of 2022, there are still no reliable studies showing Acupuncture significantly improved stroke recovery.

I hoped to find more stroke patients to work with to see if I got similar results, but life events precluded me from pursuing this until now. 

21 years later, I have found only ONE study finding Jin Shin improved mobility in stroke patients, but it did not produce such spectacular results my method did. 

So, I'm breaking new ground.

Because the flow I used balances Yin & Yang in the human Energy Meridians, I anticipate the same method could stop or even reverse:

  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Parkinson's
  • Alzheimer's
  • Autoimmune Disorders
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • PTSD
  • Schizophrenia
  • BPD
  • TBI

...and likely many other life-altering conditions that conventional treatments have failed to restore people to full health and function.

"The Meridian is that which decides over life and death. Through it the hundred diseases may be treated." - The Yellow Emperor (Jiayijing, Vol. 2, Ch. 1a)

In simple TCM terms, Excess Yang and Deficient Yin manifest as systemic inflammation.  

Thus, balancing Yin & Yang in the Energy Meridians may help both prevent and facilitate recovery from the cause of more than 50% of all deaths and disease when combined with a healthy lifestyle, and lift the multi-trillion-dollar global economic burden of these conditions

I designed studies for each of these conditions, and am seeking one or more Clinical Research Neurologists, or similarly qualified Medical Researchers, to review and revise my study designs if needed.

I've been a Holistic Health Coach & Therapeutic Bodywork provider, specializing in Traditional Chinese Medical (TCM) Theory, for 27+ years.

In addition to the 1,200+ hours I've completed in my professional training & education, I have Associate degrees in Psychology, Sociology and Liberal Studies, and a Certificate of Completion in an 18-unit college program in Applied Biotechnology.

When I review papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals like Nature or Neuron, I see technical terms beyond my education and training. Whether I could get my findings publish in my own terms is TBD. Hence the potential need for a Clinical Research Neurologist.

Again, the fact that my results baffled Physical Therapists suggests I'm pioneering an entirely new -and exciting- frontier that may have to be defined by my own terms.

PROPOSAL:

Your investment will enable me to work full-time with the online marketing experts I acquired to launch and administer my online training.

DATA:

* People pay $145 per hour for Jin Shin for relaxation, homeostasis (maintenance) and minor-moderate conditions (headaches, digestion issues, fibroids and pain).

* Weekly sessions are necessary for results. Depending on one's lifestyle and conditions, more frequent sessions may be indicated.

* This means general health consumers would spend $7,540 annually minimum for Jin Shin benefits.

My training/education requires a partner to learn with, so both can experience and benefit from Jin Shin. This effectively doubles the base market value** of my training to $15,080 per pair of students.

** Acquiring just the Jin Shin method and sequence alone provides immeasurable value by putting power into people's hands for optimizing their health potential (quality) and longevity, while preventing degenerative issues that are as financially as they are personally and socially devastating.

For a 40-yr old person, assuming they die at 80, getting my training will save them $301,600 just from not needing to see a professional anymore. 

They would also never have to wait for an opening on a popular professional's calendar.

And, protecting their income represents a far more significant benefit!

With the average American income of $31,133 a year, preserving the ability of a 40 year old to work will save an additional $1,245,320 over 40 years.

More importantly, my training has the potential to significantly extend their healthy years by an estimated 30% - so they can enjoy greater quality of life longevity and, by extension, contribute to the economy 30% longer.

Obviously, the value for people who have lost their independence and quality of life due to stroke or other life-changing conditions would be exponentially higher if they can get greater or full recovery faster.

CONSIDER:

* Only 10% of stroke survivors fully recover.

* 25% have minor impairments.

* 40% have moderate impairments that are manageable with some special care.

* 15% - 30% are permanently disabled.

* There are 795,000 NEW stroke patients EVERY year in the U.S. alone, with 15 million worldwide.

* Stroke frequency has increased by ~60% between 1990 to 2019, projecting an average annual increase in strokes of over 2%, meaning ~15,900 more stroke cases every year!

* About 34% of the global total healthcare expenditure is spent on stroke.

* The average healthcare cost of stroke per person, including inpatient care, rehabilitation, and follow-up care, is estimated at $140,048 in the United States alone.

*  In Europe, it is estimated that informal care amounted to €1.3 billion, the cost for health care was €27 billion, while the cost due to lost productivity following stroke was €12 billion in 2017. In the US, the indirect costs amounted to 66% of the total costs ($103.5 billion), with slight differences between the cost of productivity loss ($38.1 billion) and the cost caused by premature death ($30.4 billion).

FURTHERMORE:

There are ~913,925 adults with Multiple Sclerosis, with ~10,400 new  cases diagnosed annually in the US.

There are ~60,000 Americans diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (PD) each year, and more than 10 million people worldwide are living with PD.

There are now ~500,000 new cases of Alzheimer's disease diagnosed each year in the US.

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is one of several Auto-Immune Disorders. Some 1.6 million Americans have T1D, including about 200,000 youth (less than 20 years old). 64,000 people are diagnosed with T1D each year in the U.S.

These 5 medical conditions alone tally ~1,429,400 new cases per year.


REVENUE POTENTIAL:

Offering those 1,429,400 Americans the possibility of swift recovery for only $7k would generate over $10B ANNUALLY.

1% of that would still be an enormous income at $1B per year.

In addition to these patient populations, consider the 184M gym members worldwide.

An effective marketing strategy could generate a one-time total of $1.288 TRILLION selling my system at $7k to gym members worldwide.

Even 1% of that would be $12.88B.

Alternatively, selling my system as a $29.89 monthly membership ($358.68/year) to only 1% of that market would gross $659,971,200 per year! 

Moving that decimal one point over to the left ($2.98/month = $35.76/year) would generate $65,798,400 per year!


...I plan to establish a 501(c)3 to funnel most of this income to provide scholarships and grants supporting science, technology and social programs with the goal of eliminating poverty, hunger and the underlying mechanisms that produce global conflict.

My goal is not to become rich, but to make the most positive impact on the world as I can while I can.

Not only would your investment vastly stimulate the U.S. and global economy, it would support my research that may prove to be a phenomenal breakthrough across multiple serious medical conditions that profoundly impact billions of lives around the world, while empowering billions of people with a method that may not only resolve their health issues but prevent them to begin with.

And, at the same time, the alleviation of all this suffering -and the anxiety of potentially suffering as these populations do- would directly remove the underlying conditions that foster conflict and selfishness worldwide, thus fostering more empathy, altruism and world peace.
