The Rossiter System with Kathy Howard for Pain Relief


Linda Roisum interviews Kathy Howard, Senior Certified Instructor and Coach of "The Rossiter System".

The Rossiter System is a 2 person workout where the Practitioner (coach) and the Patient (person in charge-PIC) works on stategic specific areas of the body where there is pain.  The technique involves the use of the body weight and foot of the coach stategically placed, combining that with coaching the person to stretch.

A typical Rossiter System workout usually takes 20-30 minutes, with each technique usually lasting only 15 seconds.

About 90% of Kathy's clients receive immediate relief in just one visit.  According to Kathy, "The more weight that we use and the more stretching the patient does, the quicker the results."

The Rossiter System is used to prevent or relieve:
  • Sciatic or Low Back or Hip Pain
  • Plantar Fasciitis or Foot or Ankle Pain
  • Knee Pain
  • Shoulder or Rotator Cuff Pain
  • Headaches or Neck Pain
  • Tight Calf Muscles and Hamstrings
  • Golfer's or Tennis Elbow
  • Overuse Injuries
  • Arm, Wrist, or Hand Pain
Over 20 years ago Kathy had an accident where she ended up with major head, neck and shoulder injuries.  She was diagnosed with 6 bulging discs in the area between C2 & T3, the nuero-surgeon wanted to remove 3 discs and put a rod in her neck.  She thought, there must be a better way.

Kathy decided to go see Richard Rossiter, founder of the Rossiter System, he did the Rossiter workout with her twice/day for 6 days, no surgery was ever needed, he was abe to put space back in her spine so those ruptured bulging discs were able to go back into place where they are suppose to be.

Kathy goes on to demonstrate in the video above of a woman with lower back pain who received relief after Kathy placed her foot in that strategic location on the woman's upper leg area.

In May 2008, Kathy opened The Rossiter Center at 1400 Battleground Ave., Suite 213, Greensboro, NC.  She sees clients by appointment and also teaches Rossiter workshops there as well.

Inflammation and Pain - Consider the FIR Dome

How much inflammation and pain can a person bare?
Do you suffer from knee pain, back pain, shoulder pain, foot pain, sports injuries, arthritis?
Why suffer another day, consider the Far Infrared Ray Dome (FIR Dome) for relief from your aches and pains.
"I've experienced pain relief using the FIR Dome, I stubbed my toe, tripped going up some cement stairs and crashed my foot into the stair riser, talk about pain, within a couple of minutes I was unable to move it since the pain and inflammation set in, even too painful to keep my shoe on.
As soon as I arrived home, I immediately laid on the couch propping my throbbing foot on a pillow and placed the FIR Dome over it.
A couple hours that evening and slept with the FIR Dome that night, by morning I was able to put my shoe on, it was still a bit tender, bruising set in, I knew I had broke my toe, but thanks to the FIR Dome within the next couple of weeks my bone healed and the bruising disappeared rather quickly.
My other option would of been walking around with an orthopedic boot, which, by the way, could cause more pain in the long run, walking off balanced with the boot could cause knee and hip problems (experienced that a couple of years ago).
But instead, I basked under the therapeutic heat radiated from the FIR Dome and the end result was a healed toe without any extra suffering." Nancy W., WI, 6/25/2010
