Hi, my name is Shane G. Black, I’m a 1st Class Sheetmetal Worker & Boilermaker (both being separate professional trades).
Three years ago, I became certified as an NLP Practitioner, NLP Coach, a Hypnotherapist, a Timeline Therapist and now my Level 1 in Bioelectric Meridian Therapy (BMT).
I have always wanted to help people, from the age of seven I grew up helping wherever I could. My mother (a former Nurse) had injured her lower back helping the sick in her line of duty. I had witnessed my mother suffer in so much pain (often also in silence) and wished I could do more for her.
At the age of ten I lost an Aunty who also had a lower back pain issue (in her case she could no longer deal with this pain and ended her life).
As I became older this led me on the pursuit in two areas, being a quest to try and understand how the mind works in both areas, mentally and physically.
In the time of working in my trades (totalling 44yrs), I am now feeling the adverse effects of the environment I had worked in, this being the heavy lifting in the fields I worked in, as well as the air in which I had to breathe.
The above forced me into looking for a way in which I could reinvent myself, which meant I had to re-educate myself in another career, this led me to the above NLP workings and to learn how I could complement that modality with what I had learned with BMT. Incidentally, the wonderful part of BMT is that it works on a cellular level- this modality gives hope to clients physically and that is what I had not witnessed in my time.
I had met a person who had already completed the Level 1 course in BMT and she was the one who said to me how well this modality worked on her and how it would help me with my pre-existing injuries from my trade and the years/age-related wear and tear from my ten years of martial arts training.
This is where I had met Tracy Taulier, the Founder of ABMMA (Academy of Bioelectric Meridian Massage Australia). My wife had a few treatments for her ailments (in which she had great success with the recovery), so now it was my turn.
I first had treatment on my hips, then on my knees. These treatments gave me hope. Each time, I was walking away from this treatment pain-free. I purchased the machine (as this was now time to take charge of my health in my home environment) and later pursued learning how I could help others by educating myself from Tracy Taulier’s ABMMA (Academy of Bioelectric Meridian Massage Australia) Level 1 course.
I have now combined both modalities and will also further my BMT education to Level 2 and beyond.
This has assisted in both my fields of interest, to set up a practice enabling me to fulfil a passion and to help people become well again, both mentally and physically.
