ORCA -
Grey Wolf Orca lives at Wolf Park, in Lafayette, Indiana. (For a complete chronicle
of Orca’s life visit WOLF PARK and click on the “Orca Update”
icon.) He sustained a spinal cord injury in 1997. Due to superb, timely medical
intervention and dedicated care of the wolf park staff, Orca not only survived
his injury but was successfully rehabilitated. He regained his ability to walk,
although his gait was weak and rather wobbly at times.
I learned about Orca in
2003. I am a licensed Occupational therapist, and my private practice provides
treatment to individuals with chronic pain and neurologic challenges. I have
been doing craniosacral therapy and myofascial release for 16 years. I have
treated many thousands of individuals. When I heard about Orca, I knew that
I had been “called” and had to offer to provide therapy for him.
After much correspondence and some visits to the park, the veterinarian approved
my meeting Orca in June 2003.
The Wolf Park staff are
willing to try most anything to improve the quality of life for animals in their
care. They admitted to being skeptical about my ability to do anything for Orca,
due in part due to the fact that he had been refusing treatment for about 6
months prior to his appointment with me, and in part due to the fact that they
had never heard of what is it that I do. Fortunately, Orca likes the treatment
that I do and began to respond. He responded quite well, showing a stronger,
more coordinated gait and longer tolerance for activity. We were very encouraged.
I came out to the park every few weeks to treat Orca.
Orca experienced a major
set back in January of 2006. He had evidently reinjured himself, and was again
not able to walk. After some craniosacral intervention he was on the road to
recovery and then got a cut on his leg followed by a stubborn infection. During
this time he lost muscle mass in his back and hips. I was concerned when I saw
him in August of 2006. He demonstrated significant muscle atrophy (wasting),
and was having trouble healing from the infection.
Thankfully, a change in
antibiotics turned him around and he was healing. Due to challenges in my own
life, I was not able to go to the park for several months. I next saw Orca in
April of 2007. Orca tends to be happy to see me, but something seemed to be
really different about him. He had generated new muscle and he let me work deeply
in his muscles.
You would have to personally
know Orca to fully appreciate this last statement, but I will explain it this
way. Orca has a reputation for being rather “reactive”. That can
seem to be a redundant statement, talking about a wolf as “reactive”,
but giving treatments to Orca required that I use great care to not upset him
or work too hard or too fast. It could be dangerous for me!
The staff said that they
thought his shoulders were sore, as that is how he “walks” when
his back end is not working. Much to my surprise he just let me work away, enjoying
the deep tissue work and relaxing. His muscles that were tight, began to soften
and relax and they felt very different to me. I was puzzled! What had happened
to him?
Allow me to digress for
a moment and explain some technical information. Inflammation starts in the
body when there is an injury, infection or chronic tension. It is part of the
body’s healing response. Inflammation can sometimes go unchecked, and
that creates problems. Chronically inflamed tissue (muscles, tendons, ligaments
and so forth) begin to change.
They become tight, fibrous
and tough. Sometimes the bodies I touch feel like wood or strings! The fibers
also stick together and can bind down on nerves and blood vessels. Treating
this involves mobilizing the stuck places and giving them freedom to move as
they should.
I commented to Pat Goodmann,
the head research associate at Wolf Park, that Orca seemed different and that
he was growing a lot of new muscle. Pat remarked that he had just started on
a new supplement called “System Saver”. I was most impressed and
happy! I was happy that my hands told me that there was something good going
on with this wolf and it was validated after the fact about the System Saver.
I knew it wasn’t
my imagination or wishful thinking that a new product was working for him. I
didn’t even know about it before I treated him. I saw Orca again in May
and June of that year, and noted that he continued to grow stronger and had
more muscle. He had regenerated muscle all the way down his back and hips. In
addition to the new muscle, I noticed that the stuck places were easier to release
and mobilize. It was amazing to me.
I saw Orca in January of
2008 and am pleased to tell you that he is again trying to push himself up to
standing and tries to walk. We don’t know if he will walk again, but it
is clear that the System Saver made a huge difference in his ability to heal
and recover from his last injury.
I have noticed similar results
in both my human patients and the animal friends that I work on. The muscle
atrophy gets reversed and the stuck sections of connective tissue get separated
so that they can freely move again.
I am pleased and grateful
for System Saver. It is a unique product that significantly supports the healing
process like nothing I have previously seen. In my 28 years of practice,(16
of which I have been doing this particular type of work), my clients and I have
tried many products and many methods. Nothing has helped like System Saver

BAILEY and JACK
Welsh Terriers After a 6 to 8 week period,I saw a HUGE shift with my dogs, and
the Rottie with bad hips. HUGE and all of a sudden. I almost asked myself "why
would I want Bailey to act younger?" but I smile when I say that, because
seeing her 12 year old self act like a goofball, jump over 5 foot above ground
pools and swim like a nut, how do you ask for more? Jack my dearheart had a
bulging disc, and was acting very fragile, and while not jumping over 5 ft barriers,
he is no longer exhibiting any symptoms or pain. Kathi O, TX
BUSTER
Boxer, 13 yrs old M Just wanted you to know I have put Buster on a regular dose
of System Saver (1-2x/day) and in two months he looks *years* younger--skin
tighter to the body, fewer aches and pains, and frisky to an indecent degree...Such
a joy to see him feeling really well. Ann C. TN
JESSE 4.5
yr old Golden F Jesse has bi-lateral hip dysplasia, arthritic elbows and poorly
structured knees. She was put on system saver to 'see' if she might regain some
mobility... Prior to using the product, she had stopped getting into bed with
me at night and needed to be assisted into the car, she was also reluctant to
play with me or my other dog when out in the yard, prefering to stand on the
side and watch.
After three weeks on System
Saver, Jesse started to offer these behaviors again and started to PLAY again
in the yard. She is still cautious to over-do-it, but her movement is freer
and she appears to be more comfortable and happier. My girl is more playful
than she has been in the last year and it is so nice to have my cuddle bud back
in bed. Lora D, NJ
SOPHIE
4 yr old Golden F Sophie has had a 'rash' of sorts on her muzzle for 6 months
that went undiagnosed and treated in terms of management for close to 4 months.
The area was always 'wet' and raw looking, and she was always rubbing her muzzle
into the ground or rug. She licked at the area very often and often ended up
with open lesions.
I started her on system
saver and within 10 days the area of her muzzle that has looked yucky for so
long is clear and normal. Seriously... I don't remember the last time her face
looked this good. She is no longer rubbing her muzzle into the ground or licking
at the area. I am so relieved that this mysterious 'rash' as disapeared! Even
the vet was surprised and asked for the website of the company! Lora D, NJ
SHRIMP
the "Miracle Donkey!" Shrimp, a 25 year old donkey has been on System
Saver since Dec 10, 2006 when she was close to dying at the Cornell Equine Hospital
in spite of 3+ weeks of intense care and treatments. By Dec 16, her appetite
perked up and we no longer had to syringe food into her just to keep her alive.
She took a huge forward step with the addition of System Saver, and not quite
a year later, she is healthy, happy and moving freely despite the laminitis,
Cushing's disease and hoof problems that had plagued her last year. |
