alla Rupe David Zarko, American playwright and theater director living in Italy, blogging about his Parkinson's recovery via the JWH approach. His blog entries reveal he quickly turned off self-induced pause and made it to the stage of recovery symptoms. He then began addressing other common layers while working to keep pause turned off. This should put him on the path to a full recovery! The link takes you to one of the earlier posts concerning PD recovery. From there you can navigate forward or back in time using the calendar in the left hand column.

Emmy van Meir Emmy, in the Netherlands, reports that she has completely recovered from PD with an approach centered on the JWH protocol!

The Parkinson's Blueprint Zeljko, in Croatia, is the first person I'm aware of to have blogged his whole experience with JWH's newer approach designed to address self-induced pause. He reports that after roughly two years he turned off pause, and over one more year has made great progress in learning to keep it turned off. He has experienced a variety of welcome recovery symptoms!

Podcast interview with JWH This interview predates JWH's newer ideas on pause, but may still be of interest to anyone investigating the evolution of her ideas.
Written interview with JWH Though also appearing to predate the newest, most refined ideas, this interview seems a bit more recent than the one just above.
Steven Hamlin on an earlier version of the JWH approach Though very outdated with regard to JWH' work, some of this Feldenkrais teacher's description of his quest for a natural cure for PD may be of interest. Emphasis on Yin Tui Na, predating the newer ideas on pause.
