LSP for Practitioners

The LSP represents a culmination of 6 years of clinical work with clients experiencing persistent autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Though multiple therapeutic approaches had proven temporarily successful, none seemed able to achieve lasting results with this psychologically affected cohort. Starting at the top of the central ANS we aimed to identify specific  structures that had a direct effect on the global pattern of peripheral nervous system activation. Manipulating these regions dramatically impacted the near complete presentation of peripheral nervous system sensitization, opening the door to a new field of highly specific central neural treatments. The LSP is highly effective as a stand alone intervention and pairs seamlessly with a wide variety of other manual therapy modalities.

LSP For Patients & Clients

The LSP has a profound impact on one's ability to relax and achieve a level of calm, resulting in a mind that feels truly at rest. It is generally anti-inflammatory for the body and helps with the mitigation of chronic exposure to stress and stressful environments. It is used for a wide range of applications depending on the individual and their needs.

The LSP can have a tremendous impact on ones central autonomic nervous system thereby helping to reset aspects of your sleep and wake cycles, thereby resetting your system back to baseline function.

Though there is no accepted or known cure for the condition known as PTSD, clients of LSP practitioners have consistently reported that they feel significant relief from the symptoms associated with the condition. So much so that they often proactively seek LSP treatment when they experience a flare in their condition.

An interesting aspect of certain phases of the LSP is the dramatic impact that it can have on ones physical performance. Many of the law enforcement officers report improved reaction times, increased, sustained high output activity and visual acquity improvements. Many of our clients that are athletes now request an LSP session to help them before matches as the LSP is reported to give them a competitive edge.

"I've had a feeling of internally freaking out a little bit my whole life — since childhood. Looking around and everyone else seemed more at ease while I felt heightened inside.

"I've had a feeling of internally freaking out a little bit my whole life — since childhood. Looking around and everyone else seemed more at ease while I felt heightened inside. That was just my baseline, for as long as I can remember. After the LSP treatment, something shifted. It wasn't dramatic overnight — but reflecting back on the past month, I kept thinking: May has been a real standout. Emotionally, everything felt different. There's a buoyancy now that wasn't there before. A lighter relationship with the feelings of sadness, the existential fears — they don't pull me down the same way. The center of gravity in my life just feels higher. Not that I was unstable before, but now there's a lightness. I feel better — genuinely, sustainably better. And that's something I honestly didn't know was possible."

As a physical therapist with 18 years of experience, I have trained in and utilized a wide variety of treatment approaches throughout my career. I have had the privilege of learning and incorporating the Limbic System Protocol into my practice, and it has become one of my most valuable clinical tools. This protocol has helped me provide care that has been truly life-changing for many patients. Patients frequently report improvements in nervous system regulation, including reduced neck and shoulder tension, better sleep quality, improved stress resilience, and easier breathing. I am passionate about helping individuals restore balance within their nervous systems, and the Limbic System Protocol has consistently been one of my most effective and frequently used treatment approaches.

I had been experiencing a lot of pressure around presenting at meetings and recently had a strong fight-or-flight response during a presentation. Although I was able to push through it, I was concerned about the physical stress it was creating on my body. Dr. Lory told me she could help using the LSP method. During the treatment, she guided me to focus on the fears and concerns I was feeling while presenting. The results were immediate. After the exercise, those heavy worries no longer felt as intense and seemed to fade away. I was surprised by how different I felt that I asked to repeat the process. After another session, I felt calmer, more at ease, and noticeably less stressed. Since then, I've been more productive, focused, and confident in situations that would normally create stress for me.
