Why the Name Effortless Superhuman?
How Many Things In Nature Look Effortless?
A flower that blooms
Seeds planted that grow
A bird in flight
The grace and speed of a cheetah
A caterpillar becomes a butterfly
The blending in of a chameleonEqually impressive (and seemingly effortless) is the miracle that is the human body. And just how incredible is the human body? Well…
- Breastmilk changes when the baby is sick or when the mother is exposed to illness. In fact, researchers believe that when a baby is sick, she passes on a cue through her saliva that sends a signal to her mother’s body to produce more milk with illness-specific antibodies. Magical, right? Similarly, if the breastfeeding mother is exposed to a virus, she will produce antibodies that get passed on to the baby for protection.
- Our heartbeat has been shown to change and mimic the rhythm of the music we listen to.
- Studies have shown that fasting for as little as three days can regenerate the entire immune system, even in the elderly.
- Our lungs inhale over two million litres of air each day (23, 040 breaths per day).
- When awake, the human brain produces enough electricity to power a small light bulb.
- When we take one step we are using up to 200 muscles.
- Nerve impulses to and from our brain travel as fast as 200 miles per hour (322km), as fast as a Formula 1 race car.
- A human skeleton renews itself completely every 10 years.
- Our heart beats approximately 100, 000 times and pumps more than 7500 liters of blood per day.
Barriers to Healing
| Food Sensitivities | Fungal Overgrowth | Malnourished |
| Chronic Stress | Sedentary Lifestyle | Negative Emotions |
| Poor Gut Health | Smoking | Alcohol & drugs |
| Food Additives | Processed foods | Chemical Exposure |
| Sedentary Lifestyle | Poor sleeping patterns | Dehydration |
If people looking to heal just removed the barriers to healing, they would realize and experience the ‘effortlessness’ with which their bodies are innately ‘superhuman’. But the truth is that far too many people stuff it up by leading unhealthy lifestyles and inhibiting the body’s natural response and repair system. Essentially, they are getting in the way of their own healing in the following ways:
- Covering up symptoms with medications
- Supplementing to overcome symptoms
- Exposing themselves to chronic stress
- Sleeping only 4-5 hours per night can significantly impact on your ability to heal
- Eating highly-processed foods, including large amounts of sugar can create a state of chronic inflammation. The ability of your treating therapist to have a positive effect through hands-on therapy is significantly diminished
- Living a sedentary lifestyle with no regular exercise will impede your ability to heal, both via your body’s innate ability and through treatment of any kind
- Carrying/shouldering heavy emotional burdens
Far too many people are seeking the help of practitioners and other medical professionals for pain, dysfunction or other symptoms without playing an active role in their own health and healing. What they may not be aware of is …
- The barriers to healing may actually prevent the body from healing itself (Just think about the innate (magical) healing power the body possesses naturally)
- The barriers to healing may delay the healing process in response to treatment
- People seeking treatment may not be aware of the fact that the pain or symptoms they feel in their muscles, joints, and/or nerves may actually be generated from chronic inflammation or disease in one of the other systems of the body.
Removing the barriers to healing and allowing the ‘Wisdom Within’ to heal your body for you … that is the miracle … that is Effortless Superhuman.
Why Effortless Superhuman?
There is a general shift in consciousness towards ‘holistic’ health and healing within the community. People are beginning to understand the interconnectedness of the human body and that health and healing goes beyond simply masking symptoms with medications.
| Neck Pain | Tendonitis | Shoulder Pain | Headaches |
| Migraines | Sciatica | Low Back Pain | Muscle Tears |
Mind, Body & Spirit = Holistic Healing
In most cases, our clients are actively seeking more from their health care professionals. They have taken the time to educate themselves and understand the need for a ‘holistic’ approach to health and healing. It is this insight that leads them to seek out Effortless Superhuman. They come to us because they are looking to learn, to be mentored through the healing process, and often, to go several steps further in enhancing performance within their lives.
Intuitively our clients know that there is more to their ‘Pain and Dysfunction’ than just three systems of the body (muscles, bones, nerves).
Systems of the Human Body
| Muscular | Skeletal | Lymphatic | Cardiovascular |
| Respiratory | Nervous | Excretory | Integumentary |
| Endocrine | Digestive | Reproductive | Vestibular |
Often our clients have seen multiple health professionals (Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, Doctors, massage therapists) who have not successfully alleviated their pain and dysfunction. There are many reasons for why treatment was not successful, but too often it’s because the barriers to healing have not been removed and a holistic approach to healing has not been followed.
There is a Genius Within Every Body.
People come to Effortless Superhuman (ES) because they are already making a discerning effort to enhance their health, their happiness and to live a more fulfilled life. They want someone to listen, to show empathy and to take a whole person approach to their health care.
Our clients have decided to…
- Make an informed choice to empower themselves
- Seek guidance & mentorship in their journey towards health and healing (establish their role in the process)
- Create flow and openness in their lives – Wherever possible, the healing process must benefit from the ‘Wisdom Within’ and appear ‘Effortless’
“What if we stopped celebrating being busy as a measurement of importance? What if instead we celebrated how much time we had spent on listening, pondering, meditating, and enjoying time with the most important people in our lives?”

Our Mission
Effortless Superhuman is a company that seeks to be an industry leader by offering a holistic approach to healthcare that identifies the root-cause of pain and dysfunction and provides strategies to overcome it.
Our mission is to educate, empower and inspire individuals to get the most out of their mind, body and spirit – one person, one treatment, and one community at a time.
At Effortless Superhuman we want to inspire individuals to do the things that inspire them!
One role of the practitioners at Effortless Superhuman is to inspire individuals to love their mind, body and soul. We refer to the word love in both the emotional context but also as a verb! We inspire individuals to:
- Nourish their body with whole foods
- Flush their body with purified water
- Move their body through a wide range of patterns
- Inspire their minds with great literature and thought-provoking articles
- Touch their souls with inspiring music and creative endeavours
- Love themselves on a daily basis!
We have started at the grassroots level and we hope to inspire individuals to create a social movement that leads to a real difference in how people view health and wellness.What is a Principle?
A good example of a ‘fundamental law’ is that of gravity. One could argue this basic principle, they may even want to challenge this law by jumping off a building. But regardless of whether they are in New York, London or Sydney, the consequences of this behaviour are subject to this fundamental principle or law.
The ‘fundamental principles of health’ are the same. They have been established over millions of years of human evolution and apply to every person, in every country, on every continent. They are not subject to race or religion, age or gender. They are universal and timeless.
Foundation Principles of Health
| (Organic) Whole Foods | Filtered Water | Quality Sleep Patterns |
| Active Lifestyle | Mental Health | Spiritual Health |
| Emotional Health | Physical Health | Optimal Breathing Patterns |
What are cultural values? How are they different from principles?
Culture is defined as all of a group’s guiding values and outward signs and symbols taken together as one big whole. These values are often passed down from one generation to the next. In Australia there is …
- The ‘beach’ culture (surf, sand, swim, sun)
- The ‘Footy’ culture
- The ‘drinking’ culture
- The ‘sporting’ culture
- The ‘working’ culture
It is often these cultural values that dictate our behaviour and the lifestyles we lead.
Let’s consider the individual who accepts a Fly-In, Fly-Out (FIFO) job to make more money to provide the lifestyle they would like. The job requires them to work 3 weeks on, 1 week off, and is a combination of days (6am to 6pm) and nights (6pm to 6am).
What fundamental principles of health may this person be violating?
- Mental health?
- Emotional health?
- Spiritual health?
- Physical health?
- Optimal sleep patterns?
- Whole food eating?
The consequences of this lifestyle will be governed by the fundamental principles of health. You don’t break these principles. You only break yourself against them.
There is an endless list of consequences that may result, but the more commonly mentioned symptoms include:
| Pain | Headaches | Muscular tightness |
| Low back pain | Brain fog | Gut disorders |
| Inflammation | Jaw Disorders | Vertigo |
| Food sensitivities | Mood disorders | Lethargy/fatigue |
