Dr. Borik developed the Sign Chi Do program based on transformational discoveries about brain function. When her grandmother had a stroke several years ago, in order to aid her rehabilitation process, Dr. Anne studied and mapped the brain discovering that sign language gesture stimulates the brain in a different area than all other movement. She incorporated this technique of sign language gesture with movement, breathing and intentional prayer with her grandmother and the results were incredible. Her grandmother displayed improved range of motion, balance and an overall sense of wellbeing. It was a powerful way to pray.
