About The Health Forum

The half-hour television series, "Health Forum," dedicates an entire segment to showing viewers how Somatic Systems can help them achieve lasting relief from chronic pain, injury, and musculoskeletal disorders without surgery or dependence on medication. The segment begins airing at a time when rising medical costs and growing economic concerns have increased consumer outcry and demand for affordable, effective non-invasive solutions to these kinds of epidemic health complaints.

Features of the segment include Somatic Systems practitioners working with clients to relieve back and shoulder pain, and interviews with company CEO Steven Aronstein and with clinical Somatics practitioners and trainers from Somatic System's Professional Training Program. The program also features interviews with clients about how Somatics helped them out of pain to the point of "changing their lives," and discussions with Professional Training Program students who were so moved by the impressive results of Somatics that they chose to make Somatics their career.

The program on Somatic Systems will air at least 50 times in the coming months, including nationally on the Travel Channel, as well as in syndication locally in other television markets throughout the country.

The "Health Forum" television feature is an important element of Somatic Systems' overall expansion of its promotional and branding efforts in support of its ongoing nationwide expansion activities. The company is preparing to launch a major redesign of its website to capitalize on the increased exposure and traffic expected from the television shows. Somatic Systems is also working with consultants and public relations firms on other components of its larger expansion strategy, including new consumer products to meet the increased demand, large-scale affiliate and franchise programs, co-marketing, leveraging strategic relationships, new web-based services, and additional media coverage.

Airing of the television program will continue throughout the coming year, and the company will announce show times as they are scheduled. Those airing schedules will also be posted on the company's website, at www.somatics.org/healthforum/schedule, and interested parties can sign up on that same page to be notified of the airing schedules by email as soon as they are announced.

In addition to the 50 guaranteed airings, networks may pickup the television segment on Somatic Systems for additional broadcasts. The company also stated it will make portions of the television program available on their website, www.somatics.org.
