The ABC of ABR – B – Body map in the brain

Brain injury: effect on the body

Everybody always focuses on the brain itself. But when a brain injury happens, the tone of the body drops down. The gas bubbles release tension and the capillaries collapse. If you want to restore it back easy and quickly, that is not possible. It will take a lot of time and the right loading.

After a brain injury, you lose a lot of information which was built up from the early in utero process. In fact, it is not the brain which is the poor controller (because the brain has huge plasticity within it). It is the massive loss of database from the body itself.

“The corrupted files”

You can compare it to corrupted files on a computer.

The files got corrupted and they are out of the body map! So, for example, the child who is born with a brain injury has to deal with half of the files. While a child with no brain injury can access all of them.

Compensation and overload

When you have certain parts of the body which are weak and are not on the body map, other parts need to cover for this loss (to keep the link). You will see asymmetrical muscle pulls. They create even further tendency for the weak areas to sink. The areas will disappear from the body map even more. Resulting in even more overload in the other areas and so on…

This is what ABR is all about!

So how can ABR Therapy help? We look at the body map from a different perspective.

ABR Therapy wants to discharge tension, strengthen the weak parts of the body and activate the parts that are not on the body map in the brain.
