Able2UK: The Scotson Techinique - A cure for Disabilty?

Below is an excerpt from an article found on the Able2UK website:

We are led to believe that those with brain injuries which lead to disabilities such as Cerebral palsy, and Downs syndrome cannot be cured although this may not be the case.


Before you start reading this by the time you finish the article don’t be too disheartened that we haven’t stumbled across a complete cure for certain forms of disabilities. However what you are about to read is a very inspiring piece of information. As you can see, this is quite a long article, but please don’t skip sentences or paragraphs as what you are about to take in is one of the most ground-breaking stories we have ever published on our website.

Doran Scotson was three days old when doctors told his mother, Linda that her new- born son had an incurable brain injury. Linda was also told her son wouldn’t be able to do anything at all. Despite the medical knowledge from the doctors Linda managed to prove them wrong and even managed to potentially reverse the brain injuries.

The assuring thing to realise is Linda isn’t a hippy, she didn’t turn to herbal medicine or chant weird things whilst dancing naked around a burning fire during a summer solstice. Although neither did she go down the route paved for most people with a physical disability, the mundane physical exercises which motivate muscles which are taught by the standard physiotherapist. Linda figured out most people with a physical disability has breathing difficulty and focused her attention on PhD research.

Why breathing? And does Linda have a valid reason to back-up her claim? Fortunately she does...The cells in our bodies need oxygen to carry out all the complicated jobs they are assigned to do. The tissues which cells form create our body organs such as our muscles and the brain. If we breathe normally from birth our cells successfully create the tissues which create the organs, but if a child is starved of oxygen at birth the chain can be broken and that’s when things go wrong.

OK, so now you understand breathing is very important to improve the lives of those born with disabilities, but how can this be put into practice?

The answer comes in the form of TST. The Scotson Technique is a response to some recently found research that makes very interesting reading. It has been found that young children have more brain cells than are necessary which means a child’s brain only consumes half the oxygen which is available. In adults the cells which look after our memory and learning abilities keep on producing and if the oxygen which flows to the nerves and the brain is increased more brain cells can be produced. How can we increase our oxygen level? By heavier breathing!

When the brain is damaged this can cause weakness to the level of oxygen which disrupts muscle movements and how the brain functions.

TST relies on the working parts of the brain to improve the flow of oxygen to the tissues around the body. To carry this out requires gentle manual delivery of breath and pressure onto the body mimicking the breathing effects on the circulatory systems and body tissues.

And here’s the incredible bit, if The Scotson Technique is performed correctly it can improve speech, sight, understanding, seizures, posture, body movements, walking and transform the lives of many young disabled children within weeks.

As you can probably tell TST is beneficial for young children and if you require more information we strongly recommend you take a visit to The Scotson Technique website where you can find details how to arrange a consultation for £80 and training courses, the first of which requires a deposit of £100. Your child will also remain fully clothed during the assessment.

So, if you ever hear a doctor tell you or a loved one a newly born child with a brain injury has a limited scope of life, bear in mind medical staff are only human and sometimes there are alternative avenues to explore to prove them wrong.
