The underlying theory behind balancing the cortices is that all disease is reflected in the brain at some level. I do the cortices tapping on myself every day and hope you do the same. If it hasn’t come up for you during a session, just ask me to show you how to do it during your next appointment or go to the link below to see the instructional video. You wouldn't consider not brushing your teeth each day. Tapping out your cortices is just as beneficial.

Submitted to the IBA's website by Deborah Carmichael:
Just had a client of mine tell me this experience. She is a massage therapist, and has taken BT 1 & 2. One of her clients brought their 80 year old Father to her for a massage. He is living with them, as they do not want to place him in a home. They have been disturbed since he just sits around and will not get up to go to the bathroom. Has no energy and seems very spacey. At the end of the massage, she decides to just tap out his cortices. The next week, the son of this man comes into her office and said, "What did you do to my Father??!!" She says, rather reluctantly, "What do you mean?" He replies, "I can't keep up with him. He is walking all over the place, working around the house and no longer goes to the bathroom in his pants! He is like a different man!" She was so excited, she had to call me at work to tell me about it. So, NEVER underestimate what cortices alone can do for a person.

From a July International BodyTalk Association Newsletter:
“It is about eight weeks since John Veltheim held a public lecture in London and as you will be aware of, he taught Cortices to the audience. Even my husband started doing them on a regular basis. (Thanks, John!) Three weeks after the lecture, I noticed in disbelief that he had stopped snoring after he had done so for more than 10 years . . .Now we all can sleep peacefully. Who thought it could be this simple?”

Stress and Our Health
Drawn from John Veltheim’s Public Talk in London on May 7th by Antonella Ercolani, CBP:
“We have a part in our brain the size of an almond, called the amygdala, which is responsible for our fight/flight mechanism since prehistoric times, when we had to decide whether to fight or run away from a tiger before us. At that time, the amygdala was working well, and after escaping from the tiger, in the evening we could sit around the campfire and laugh about it, because the amygdale had relaxed and reset itself.
“Nowadays, we have other stresses, and besides fight/flight, we can and often do choose a third option more damaging to our bodies: freeze and pretend the problem doesn’t exist.
“To make matters worse, our amygdalas are so bombarded by stress that they have gone on all of our lives without a chance to relax and reset, so our bodies are wearing out, like a car with both the accelerator and the brakes down at the same time. The stress is turned inwardly and it damages us enormously, creating new health issues and worsening the ones we have:
Headaches get stronger and more frequent.
Backaches get more painful and cripple us for days.
Heartburn happens more often.
“In BodyTalk, we have a simple two minutes technique we can teach to every client and when performed regularly, relaxes and resets the amygdala as well as improving the communication between the two hemispheres of the brain.
“BodyTalk sessions work to improve your health and quality of life by asking the body what it needs to repair itself, and then re-establishing the lines of communication between the parts of your body, worn down by stress and other factors.”
The two-minute technique mentioned by John Veltheim above is the cortices tap-out.
