Milo and Max work on village elder in the mountain province of Ifugao in the Philippines

Added: 2026-05-14

[00:00:03]Okay. Party time in the city.

[00:00:09]Aka massage in native villages is my party time in the city.

[00:00:15]Oh, we're going to work on this elder here again. We did a little work yesterday. When we arrived, we saw that it was tough for him to walk. You can see he's not standing on his right leg.

[00:00:28]Um So, we did a little intro yesterday. We're going to do a little mobility test and then we're going to do some work on him here.

[00:00:42]Um, and then uh yeah, we'll see what we can do. Maybe we'll uh yeah, that's all that's important there. I don't know what I'll include in this video, but then we're going to head down into the village, get a little movement in ourselves, make sure we're taking care of ourselves as we take care of others.

[00:00:59]And uh word spread yesterday that we had helped and so other people in the village potentially want to get some work, but we'll talk about that later.

[00:01:12]Okay. All right. Um, if you want to start out [Music] First session yesterday, first therapy outcomes. Very good. Very good. Yeah.

[00:01:56]Yeah. Very good. Yeah. Loosen up.

[00:02:06]Well, so guys, because of years of um not being treated because he had a old surgery in a scar tissue, um it get really really the fascia is really really tight just like a rubber and it was I I'll show you guys when I when we when to um um Max started it the the muscle was like this like t a u t how do you pronounce that? Tot like the skin is so like like this. Mhm. So Thomas started it warming up and it become like this now. See the difference. But we're going to test again because it's already shortened.

[00:02:50]The legs is shortened. And if you look at it and the video yesterday, you will see how he walked.

[00:03:19]Is that where we'll do the work? Is there? Yeah. Yeah. The lighting is much better here.

[00:03:29]comfortable. He wants it there.

[00:03:32]Yeah, you can do You didn't want to walk it.

[00:04:28]Look at them. All right, we live. So, this stuff might get cut. But while we're here, hello Um I'm kind of excited.

[00:05:26]Um this man is open to healing and can feel that. Um so I feel our results today may be much better than they were yesterday just on that.

[00:05:41]Um something to know in this there's going to be a lot of different fear and things connected. you want to be aware of cultural uh limitations. So they believe in ghosts and spirits and things in this part of the world and uh so acknowledging that and maybe praying to them or helping clear some of those things um before we do the actual body work.

[00:06:08]Milo likes to focus on deep tissue so I may do some of those more spiritual and energetic things.

[00:06:14][Music] Um, there's definitely going to be fear with an injury this long. Um, for whatever that's worth, I have a similar injury, and I'll explain this to you as well. If you look at my feet when I place them on the ground, this one is straight. This one is curved out. So, I have an external rotation of my foot because I'm too tight here. Um, which feels like pain in here, but it's tight in here. All right, which makes his side taut. So similarly with him, you can see his foot is rotated uh outward. So it's pulling on this side. Um and the short of it is that it builds fear builds up. Fear builds up that of stepping on it and fear builds up on getting released.

[00:07:08]This is an interesting thing that when we held on to pain so long, we think we identify with it. And so when it's going to get released, we have a fear of losing self. We have a fear of our world sort of falling apart. Like what if oh my god, what if I can't walk again? What if I lose more? But someone like this uh it's maybe so limiting already that their willingness is they're willing to gamble. They're willing to try to get healed. They're willing to which is why I'm here, right? that I came across the world to come to this village is because for me the pain has been so much I'm willing to try these other things. Anyway, um I'm going to let him relax, breathe into this as much as he can. That will help. He's probably going to internally make some decisions on wanting to heal and allowing healing to come in.

[00:07:55]Uh then there's going to be a lot of pain.

[00:08:00]So, maybe get a bite to eat. I keep my energy levels up. All right. You can probably cut it if you want. That's your ready.

[00:08:34]So um yesterday we tested his flexibility and not much a lot of a range of motions on the knee and then the hips and then the ankle. So I pre-up the the uh the toes his toes and here's the digits. What do you call this?

[00:08:51]Digits and then u pre-up the scar tissue here. And if you can uh see it is have a lot of um you know um neglect on this part when he had a surgery post surgery and then didn't do anything. So this is what it looks like when posts surgery.

[00:09:13]um you don't you know free up the the the the the tightness or the muscle that got stuck and this is what happened when this happen is got scar tissue it pull every muscle and all the nerves in here into here and they get tight that's why had he had a limited and plus repetitive movement walking uh standing lying in bed sitting down all day because of of his old aids and he has not uh very limited range of motion. So the nerves, muscles, ligament, tendons, they get squeezed like you're ringing a cloth when you wash a cloth by hand. It was like this which you can see here. So if you look at the way the fash see how tight it is, see how it's pulled tight and is like ringed in. This is what's happening through the whole body inside.

[00:10:08]Yes. This is just fashca literally at the surface layer. So you're seeing it bunched up. This is a dramatic version.

[00:10:14]This is a great picture that we can use in the future because this is what it looks like. So here's what like a fosa adhesion would look like. It's just hard. This is rock hard stuff. Taught. T A U T. That's like how it's describing, right? Taught. And and so two things.

[00:10:30]One, if you have scar tissue that someone like Milo can come in and break these up over time. So things like C-sections and such, you can help to relieve those scars um on one note and do it earlier than later because it'll build and build. Um that's a little bit of a sidetrack, but what's most important is that when it's gone this long, it takes time. It takes time cuz what you see here is going to be here is going to be here and it's going to be here. And so what we're going to do is that we're going to break this apart and and peel this open. Um so that way he can start to move more. Yes. We're not expecting necessarily a miracle here in our sense of the word, but for him it may be uh a and and so anything is better than nothing, right? Um so we'll see what uh what we can do here. So Tom Thomas Max he started it yesterday and now we're going to retest again the his knee how how far he you know it was like this now when this is how when he started like this. Mhm. And if you look at yesterday, this one came down all the way down here because fascia is it keep building up every day. So we have to breed them uh more.

[00:11:59]So it's more it's more pliable now and supple and epidermis. Mhm. And so now we're going to dig in more to maybe layer four uh down to the bones. And so that's what we did. And when you see the uh video yesterday, he was extremely in pain and and then he survived. So now we're going to keep doing it. Mhm.

[00:12:31]and he is willing because he knows he's been suffering for so long and the pain is no more an issue for him. I suffer already for how many years and when I work on it it's nothing to him. He can endure the pain because guys he didn't die. Look at him. He said he was he feels better. You feel okay? You feel good?

[00:13:01]Yeah.

[00:13:06]Good. Yeah. See, he see he said I asked him about the pain. I said, you know, it's less because he's moving right now.

[00:13:13]Mhm. Yeah. Still because he requested last night here is that that uh it's painful here to touch. So now when I touch it, when I work on it, it's going to be painful. I mean, we're going to show you how it works. And he's going to he's going to be in pain. And that's what uh I want. And to do this, there's a femeral vein in here, guys. If you are not trained, do not do not touch this if you are not uh uh trained, you know. So, now I'm going to work on this and free it. So, you're going to watch him ex uh uh the the the pain.

[00:14:01]Look, he's going to be in pain now. But he's already in pain for how many years? I don't know.

[00:14:23]He is in seven 70s I think. I don't know. He's already in pain. So that this pain is nothing to him because he he's carrying it every single day, every seconds, every minute, every hour, every day, every week, every month, every years that he's been paying. So this one, he wants it to get it done. What I mean is he can endure. Now look.

[00:14:57]Okay.

[00:15:01][Music] So guys, I'm not torturing him. Look, he's excruciating right now. He's in pain. In pain right now. I'm working on it. I'm working on right now. And then now I'm going to release my hands and I will ask him. Oh, he said only when I'm working on it, when I put my hands and work on it, it's painful. But when I'm my hands are off, I'm not working. No pain.

[00:16:03]Do you want to add on to that? It's great. Okay.

[00:16:08]Now we're going to do it again.

[00:16:12][Music] So again, these are some of the most painful spots in the body. We may include this in the leg series of videos. Yeah. So back here, we sit a lot. And so because we're sitting here, um it gets compressed a lot. Almost I think 100% of people adductor and here adductors right no adductor here or hamstrings there's a hamstring and then the sciatic uh nerve so it's compressed and you can actually see if you look you can see how bunched up the fashcia is this bulbous looking tissue that's a good example of what it looks like when fashcia is is knotted so cellulite for example is a result of knotted fashca here I now I can grab the of the fascia. Yeah. Not the surface. It's right here. Mhm. So when I when when when Max started it, it was like this and feel it. Uh Max, right? That's how it started. Like Saran wrap pulled over a warm dish, a casserole.

[00:17:15]Now because of our work together, it become, you know, like little pliable.

[00:17:22]Yes. It's it's starting to loosen. And he's also choosing to heal which will loosen it. The mind holds the fashca on and emotions. So when when we relax the mind, the faucia relaxes.

[00:17:36]Um forever it's worth this is one of the most brutal spots. If you just on yourself, come in on your leg, white butt cheeks. Come in and just try to poke in this area. Just apply pressure and see how it feels. You'll probably wse and go, "Oh my god, please don't do that ever again." And he's just going in on this. He has strong hands. It It feels like an elephant stepping on you.

[00:18:06]This is This is incredible strength by this man right now. Yeah. So now, hands off. Let him rest a little bit. I know.

[00:18:17]You want to be able to process the feelings. It's important, right?

[00:18:22]process the pain.

[00:18:40]No. He said only when I touch it's painful.

[00:18:46]Uh one if I my hands are off I'm not working on it. He said nothing. So the key there is if if it's my hands or is on off and if I'm not working on it and it's still painful, stop. Red light. Don't touch.

[00:19:09]Do not work on it. Find something else.

[00:19:13]Why? Because it's if you're already working on the muscle, it's painful. And then when I'm my hands are off, it's still painful. Yeah. We we damage something. Oh, the nerve, the muscle, something is, you know, because it's going to be sharp or or or a thing.

[00:19:33]So, painful or sore? Um, it's a different sore and pain or sharp pain.

[00:19:39]It's different. So you have to wait until it the pains the sharp pain will subside because we might hit somewhere here that are connected here down to the stomach and then down to the brain.

[00:19:52]Okay. So acute pain versus soreness and latent pain. Yeah. Explain that. So, so acute pain uh like sharp pain um versus latent pain which is uh which is it's like soreness. We might call it like a throb. Yeah. Those are different, right?

[00:20:14]One is damaged tissue. That's right. in uh a way and both kind of are damaged tissue, but one is damaged in a way that can heal can heal and is healing and one is maybe going to heal also but slower slower and we want quick healing. Slow healing will heal like this. This is come in. This is what really slow healing looks like. Okay, we we want uh and and not good healing. So, we don't want to continue to damage the is kind of what he's getting at, right? Is what and I'm learning this. Yes. So, this is something I'm I'm seeing myself and there's lots of areas on the body.

[00:20:58]We need work everywhere. Everywhere. So, we can like look at his arm as well.

[00:21:04]So, you see people who live really real lives close to earth, damage happened all the time. We have a fear particularly in the west of being hurt.

[00:21:13]I did as a kid. Uh and but this is a part of everyday life and so massage and healing is a part of everyday life optimally. A lot of the healers are gone though. Um and and so some of these people are are are left. Some of the the people that need it are not being healed and we see that here in the village.

[00:21:35]That's right. Um and so because we can we are is sort of how it's going. Yeah.

[00:21:43]So, I'm going to do it again. The same same uh different spot. And then the same he's going to start uh screaming, but and I know the acupressure where to go. So, I'm not just blindly massaging it. is intuitively connecting to his inner soul.

[00:22:11]Why he suffered so long?

[00:22:31][Music] Gora [Music] gora. Okay guys, he was in pain for a couple of minutes. Now rest. You will see his reaction in a minute and he will be completely relaxed. Let me do a little energy work.

[00:25:22]So, what I'm doing is just channeling some of the pain, some of these difficult emotions and feelings out of his body, through my body. Um, which is dangerous. if you don't know what you're doing, don't do this. It's like taking on someone's karma. And I'm channeling that. And because I can use my body as a conduit, I can process it through the health of my body and send it out into the earth.

[00:25:48]Um when my resources started to get limited, I channeled through Milo, some through Milo towards the end. Uh and so it's good to have a reservoir. You can have something like water nearby to if it's too much for your body to channel into.

[00:26:03]Um you don't want to store these things.

[00:26:06]Yep.

[00:26:07]Um and so Milo immediately I could feel his conduit is open. He knew he knows this to channel through him. So when I sent to him it it dissipated. It felt it went straight through. Yeah.

[00:26:20]Usually in my work because I've been seeing a client every day and I don't I try not to store their energy. I release them as they go.

[00:26:35]Huh? When [Applause] I'm ga Aus.

[00:27:24][Music] All right.

[00:27:32]All right. So, now we're going to to stop and we'll continue again later in the afternoon cuz I can do them. I can work every day with him without, you know, damaging the the tissue. We can rest and then find another spot because, you know, like in the west if you get a massage, wait for one week. I don't do that because you can do them every day.

[00:28:00]Hello. There's from head to toe you can work everywhere. So no need to rest. I can find other thing because fascia is all over our body from head to toe. Even the bones and organs internal organs um you know we're covered as we get older.

[00:28:19]If you're a baby then you have a healthy fascia which is gliding. It's watery.

[00:28:26]Yeah, it's a it's like fashca. Fashca is like a gel. You can look it up on the internet. So it's it's like gelat. It's like gelatinous. If you have soap in your hands, you squirt soap and if you just take that glob and you tap it, that's what fashca is like. So it's sticky and stringy but globby um when it's healthy. Yes. When it's unhealthy, it's it can it gets harder and harder and it looks like this. painful. This is about as far as fa can go where this right this is a rock. If if I didn't know, I would think I was pushing on a rock. Like I just didn't know any different. Um so there's levels to it.

[00:29:08]Again, this is dramatic. It could have been 20 or 40 years that this is building up. But for um for you, you can start to break yours up simply by moving, starting to get dynamic movement in your body, which you'll see me do a lot. Shaking. Shaking is a good one.

[00:29:23]Shake your booty. Shake your booty.

[00:29:24]Yeah, baby. Shake your booty. Can start to break these things up and then you yourself can start to mildly open them and then seek a professional when you feel it's beyond your level. Someone like Milo who is quite good, I have to say. And probably by the time these videos are out, is going to be fully booked. Um, but if the spirit calls you and moves you and you feel it, try to book with him because maybe he will have students by then that will be trained as well that they can work on you through his teaching. Maybe me. He He's He's uh he's good. Maybe I'll have a crazy white dude. Um also the goal for him is to be able to be uh more flexible and off using the cane because he's using the [Music] cane without the cane. Don't help. We don't have to help him because he can do it. Try to be encourage him to be independent.

[00:30:41]As I told him, try not to use the cane and uh and then try it and then I will assist him.

[00:30:54]That was the best stand I've seen out of him.

[00:30:59]His foot went straight to the ground and he applied pressure.

[00:31:08]Mhm. Now without the cane.

[00:31:17]So, a lot of this is something I'll just share on. You can see he's actually limping with the left foot. So, this is he's mentally overcoming right now what he's known in his life, his limitations.

[00:31:32]You'll see miraculously that he'll probably be able to walk here.

[00:31:38][Music] He knows how to do it. So, he's been using cane for so long. He uses two. You saw them a while ago. He's using like this.

[00:32:05]Now, we'll try to ask him to walk. Come on.

[00:32:10]Come on.

[00:32:12]Yes. I'm going to do the eye. Oh, wow.

[00:32:16]Yeah. Wow. Yep.

[00:32:19]Yes. Yes.

[00:32:25]Yes.

[00:32:28]Come on. It makes me It makes me cry.

[00:32:31]He's smiling since last night.

[00:32:33]Yesterday.

[00:32:35]Oh, wow. That is a firm foot. That is a firm foot.

[00:32:41]That's a fully functional foot. Hey, Jack.

[00:32:54]Jack. So, he's got to keep moving. I think if he stands still, it'll stiffen.

[00:33:06]It's kind of like a baby, right?

[00:33:08]Relearning how to walk. Similarly, when after injury and after release, we have relearned because we have a new body.

[00:33:29]I got to get ready.

[00:33:40]Look at that. Look at that.

[00:33:47]Oh my god.

[00:33:52]Yes. So guys, the pain that he endured for uh not even 20 minutes of work, he had pain for such so long that he forgot that he's in pain, suffering pain every day. Look, so that's the result of our work with energy work and whatever deep tissue tissue therapy which can go hand in hand. Yeah. Look at these results. This is huge for this man. I'm excited to see the next few days as he learns to build trust in this foot. That is strong. You can see the strength in his step. It's powerful. I'm excited.

[00:34:37]Yesterday he carried firewood right after his meeting. After his after his therapy yesterday okay like example like this he will carry this.

[00:34:58]Okay. No way. No way.

[00:35:10]He's got it. He's got it.

[00:35:16]He's faster now. He's really fast. Yeah.

[00:35:30]Look at that.

[00:35:37]Yeah, is is very good.

[00:36:01]What? Okay. All right. Okay. Thank you.
