Can you share your initial impressions of our first education level?
I was pretty skeptical about joining this course. Upon seeing the ANF Device and hearing the testimonials, I questioned how a device could reduce pain by 50% to 90% in a single session. Despite my reservations, I joined a practical session with Dr. Mikel H-G Hoff in Dubai, who encouraged me to try it.
I completed the first course and got the device package and all the necessary materials. The first patient I used the device on had a triceps strain. After employing various therapy methods and modalities, including manual therapy, I could only reduce the patient’s pain by about 20%.
I believed this patient would need multiple sessions for the pain to subside. However, after using the ANF Devices, I saw excellent results. Previously at level nine, the pain dropped to zero, allowing the patient to perform activities that were painful before. We replicated the movements that initially caused pain, but the patient reported no discomfort after applying ANF. The results with ANF were truly astonishing.
What makes ANF a valuable tool for therapists and their patients?
The ANF Device is one of the most potent tools a physiotherapist/ physical therapist can have. It is invaluable because it works holistically across multiple systems, affecting nerves, muscles, and organs. Additionally, it is easy to apply, has no side effects, and is activated by body heat, eliminating the need for an external source. Furthermore, it yields excellent results within just five to ten minutes.
What results can you now achieve with ANF that you couldn’t achieve before?
I recall a patient from two weeks ago with a grade one tear in his gastrocnemius. Before using ANF, I could not provide him with any substantial relief. He was limping, unable to bear weight on his right side, and had significant swelling. Painkillers provided no relief. After applying the ANF Devices, he could place 20% of his body weight on his foot after just ten minutes. This immediate improvement was astounding. By the third day, he was walking normally, a recovery that surprised him and his doctor.
After completing the first level of training, can you more easily identify the root cause of various conditions and types of pain?
After completing AP1, I find it much easier to identify the root cause of pain. Initially, I focused primarily on the musculoskeletal aspect. However, my focus has shifted towards addressing chronic and invisible inflammation of nerves and other organs. Previously, I was treating symptoms rather than the root cause. Now, I treat the root cause and see better results.
