    hi Sally,
    i found your web resources and was hooked by the rehab videos you share
    May I ask to interview you about your insights about the healing process?
    I work for a magazine that publishes healing testimonials all over the world. It is a social project with a mission to instill hope that one can cure himself from a chronic condition (even if the doctors’ verdict was that the condition is “incurable”).
    Having experts like you talking and sharing their knowledge about the body’s ability to heal from within is crucial for people in pain who feel they are doomed. It might start a new brain pathway in the direction towards healing.

    Will you be kind to be interviewed and share your ideas and work? We can put links to your website or online services so our readers can connect easily.
    Lmk when it would be convenient for you to talk
    Thanks
    Anat Cohen
