CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Back in March 2023 our son was in a massive burn accident.  We knew without a shadow of doubt that we needed to get the right type of mental and physical help to get our son and daughter (who witnessed it) get through.  We seeked out the help of Anton and we’re definitely not disappointed.  His methods are simple and extremely effective.  They are very easy to use on a day-to-day basis when struggling with PTSD moments.  He explains everything very well and makes you feel comfortable through the process.  We are forever grateful for his service and his expertise!

Thanks to Atheq, my soccer journey transformed from battling constant knee pain post-surgeries to thriving on the field. The holistic approach brought me relief, making practices, games, and weightlifting sessions pain-free. I wholeheartedly endorse this service for athletes seeking to conquer pain and optimize performance.

I am a 60 something year old musician living in the UK, about 12 months ago out of the blue, I experienced excruciating pain in my shoulders, my movement was severely limited to the point where I could not put a jacket on, or put my hands above my head, this was very troubling to me and quite limiting in everyday tasks.

A few of my friends said it was “probably my age”, the doctor referred me to a physio, who said it was a “frozen shoulder” and gave me some exercises to do.

The problem was, I couldn’t do any exercises because of the limitation of movement or if I could move my arms my muscle would spasm and it would be very painful.

Anton’s way was a whole new world to me that made sense straight away, as we worked together over the weeks, I could see definite improvement. Anton was extremely thorough and laser focused in getting results, and with his help, real progress was made. After just a few sessions, I was able to move my arms more freely and the pain dissipated.

I am absolutely certain that this would not have happened without Anton’s help, and it has given me a much better understanding of the muscle systems and how this condition came about.

It will be a lifetimes habit now, to keep these twinges, stiffening, spasms, and weaknesses at bay with the ingenious system Anton has developed.

I am so grateful to Anton and his tireless work in this field and have absolutely no reservations recommending him to my friends, ( even the ones who called me old!)

I was referred to Anton after several months of attempting to heal from a lower back injury that took place in late 2021.  The back injury was not only not healing, but was beginning to cause all sorts of related pain in my glutes, hips, and knees.  I’m an athlete and novice body builder, and the injuries were making my favorite passion almost unbearable.  Additionally, I work in a high stress job, and was unaware of how shot my nervous system was.   I had exhausted traditional methods of recovery; physical therapy, chiropractic, massage and stretching, and a spinal injection.  Nothing worked.  When I went to see Anton, I will admit I was skeptical, and honestly I still don’t always understand how the methods actually work.  All I know is that they do.  I think my biggest eye-opener was the realization that my brain was the main culprit in sabotaging my healing; that in an attempt to protect the body from further trauma, it had reprogrammed my body to work in a way that it wasn’t designed to, which was making things worse.  I then had to reprogram my mind to trust my body of what it’s capable of in order to ease the pain. 

I still engage in this re-programming today.  I’m about 90% pain free with just occasional bad days when I overdue things.  But I’m in the gym 5 days a week, and back to being able to do compound movements like squats and deadlifts without fear or pain.  I’ve also kicked painkillers and muscle relaxers, and my nervous system is better regulated despite my high-stress job.

A final note.  Anton sincerely cares for the people he works with.  During the course of our training, I had what I can only assume was some type of nervous breakdown, from stress I was experiencing at work and with the injuries.  Anton took time out of his day to call me at home and talk me through it.  His accessibility was breath of fresh air compared to most professionals in the health care field, and his genuine interest in following up was always greatly appreciated. 

If you’re dealing with any kind of physical or mental trauma, I seriously suggest you go see Anton.  At the very least, you will learn a lot about the way your mind and body work.

My name is Wayne, I first talked to Anton three months ago, I was in a lot of pain which I have been in for several years from disc issues, after a few sessions with Anton my back pain is completely gone, no more pain pills and no more muscle relaxers, thank you Anton, and thank you Lynn for telling Anton of my situation.  Thank you.

I’ve been dealing with a shoulder injury after a fall on Memorial Day. Although standard pt had helped me a lot, I still had problems with my shoulder (as well as chronically tight shoulders and neck) and knew I needed to do more but wasn’t sure what. And I happened to see Gino’s post about his work with Anton. I read through the comments, checked out his website, and decided to contact Anton. He has helped me so much. We’ve been working on strengthening abs, obliques, biceps and pecs (all with the goal of getting everything working as it should to help with the shoulder) and I’ve seen great improvement there. He also helped with my right hip. It wasn’t laying flat when I was on my back and with a few simple exercises, it’s now flat. I definitely notice the difference in all these areas when I’m in my yoga class.  I like that he explains everything in a way I understand and I can monitor my progress between our meetings. 

I have had a condition called “cervical dystonia” (laterocollis) since the age of 12 due to a head trauma. I am currently 68, and have tried multiple approaches to treat my chronic stiff neck muscles condition and head tilt, from physical therapy, to different diets, to exercise, to injections, to surgeries, plus different medications, but unfortunately nothing was effective enough.  I have been a fan of Gino Vannelli’s music since around 1975 and also follow his page on Facebook. Back in early November, Gino posted an article about his son’s Anton practice. After reading it,  I couldn’t see a reason why not to give Anton a chance.  We got in touch for a consultation, liked what I heard, next I decided to give Anton’s unique approach a try. 

I’ve been working with Anton for weeks. In 3 short, hour long sessions, he accomplished more than Harvard professors have, by leaps and bounds, spanning decades. Subsequent to a plethora of ailments for over 30 years, I have had a constant need for physicians in Boston & Phoenix. Anton’s approach is the absolute best thus far, in that I get immediate results. We work from the comfort of my home, remotely. I don’t require pain management, nor nearly as many meds. My mind is far more at ease than I can recall, in every regard. He is about cause, effect & improvement. Simply, the more you release, the better you feel. He is brilliant in his approach. I look forward to working with him indefinitely. In such a short time frame, my future health wise is far less bleak. For there is no price tag, which you can apply. I am blessed to have Anton, as a touch stone. He far supersedes expectations…

As a former professional dancer, I know when someone understands how the body works, and Anton is one of those people. He can also help you heal yourself by helping you understand how your own body works. I’ve only had a few sessions with Anton and already I can see and feel this process working. The great thing is you can see an end to your pain.

What Anton Vannelli has created here should be taught in Physical Education classes all around the world! I came to him with massive lower back pains as to where if I wasn’t laying down flat I was in pain! Now I was lucky because with his extensive knowledge on the matter he knew exactly what was wrong and what I needed after the first session I was already relieved of some pain. Then after each week, each session, not only did he relieve some pain but taught me even more. Things that I was taught on how to sit, my posture, etc, were the leading issues that got to where I was. After 2 months, I am like how I was before and even better! I cannot wait to continue expanding on other areas and getting my mind blown! *explosion sound!*

Anton is a “Miracle Worker” he has helped me when I needed it the most. I had gotten a new extremely physical job and it was taking its toll on me with my back. I only needed about 3-4 meetings to fix my pain and soreness because what he does and knows works. Now at work I don’t feel any pain at all no matter what I lift within reason as long as I follow the process I can lift it safely and confidently. The thing that takes the longest is either waking up to the fact that Anton is your only REAL solution, not some temporary solution that you need to do every other 2 months or the fact that when the pain is gone it’s real, welcome to the reality of the Atheq existence.

I have been aware of Anton and Atheq System since he started his business in 2018. I was fortunate to attend a live demonstration and a one day workshop with Anton and was extremely impressed with what he had to say. It wasn’t until COVID hit in the spring of 2020 and I was in Oregon that I reached out for a personal session. I was experiencing excruciating back pain and felt very confident that Anton could help. Through my initial virtual online visit with Anton, I immediately moved much more effectively without pain. I had several additional sessions with Anton to educate me on my problem and teach me what I needed to know to build up muscle groups, specifically my glutes and abdomen, that had not been working correctly.  Within a few sessions, I had what I needed to continue working on my own. Before working with Anton, I experienced back pain for years, which I treated with my chiropractor’s routine visits. Since I started working with Anton, I have not experienced any more problems at all.  A true blessing!!! Thanks to Anton, I finally have the tools I need to improve my posture as well – so now it’s up to me.  Anton is incredible, brilliant, and is motivated by challenging opportunities to continue researching and implementing tools to change lives.  I highly recommend Anton Vannelli and his work!!!

I have suffered from lower back pain in my sacral joints on and off for years.  In one session, Anton was able to pinpoint specific weak spots that contributed to this pain and give me solid advice on how to strengthen and target those muscle groups.  After working on these weak spots, I have been pain free now for 3 months.  I am hitting PR’s on every muscle group in the weight room as well.

I want to take a moment to thank Anton for allowing me to work with him. I’ve had acute back pain for over 6 months and had to stop my active life of YOGA, RUNNING AND WEIGHTS. During this time I sought help from an Osteopath who treated several professional athletes. He had treated me in the past whenever I would over do my training. To no avail, my doctor sent me for an MRI, well the news was devastating. The diagnosis was 4 herniated discs in my lower back, L1-2,L3-4, L4-5, L5 WAS ALSO WITH ARTHRITIS. I sought help from another well known osteopath to treat me. I have to say after a month it helped, however the news wasn’t good. She stated that I would never run again and that I was limited in activity. This is not what I wanted to hear at age 56, living an extremely active life. I’ve been practicing yoga for seven years and running for 20. I love Tennis and Golf, so to be told I would be limited, really, as if I was 70 years old. I immediately contacted ANTON as I heard many good things about his treatment. After working only one week with him I began noticing less pain. I work as a security guard for major events, concerts, Montreal Canadian hockey games ….so forth. I stand for 7- 8 hours sometimes. Anton gave me a set of exercises and postural changes to do and after 3 weeks I can say that I am 80% better.

So ANTON, THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME SOME FREEDOM AGAIN, AND WILL BE BACK INTO YOGA THIS WEEK.
My back is heavily damaged, so if ANTON can help me, imagine what he can do for you!!

“I have been in pain for 15 years which has caused me great difficulty in movement. When I saw Anton, he taught me in a few minutes how one move could reduce my pain and ease my difficulty in moving. Using the one movement he showed me has increased my ability to move and has reduced the pain I feel when moving. Stepping up onto a curb or going upstairs was nearly impossible for me and now I am able to do both with much more confidence and less fear of falling. I owe that to Anton Vannelli.”

“Personally, he has been able to help me in a lot of ways, made me stronger, the way I walk and my balance, I’m stronger than ever.”
