I’ve always believed the best discoveries happen when someone is simply trying to help the person in front of them. That’s exactly how Dr. Deborah Hill, a soft-spoken, board-certified Doctor of Chiropractic in the Verdugo Hills of Los Angeles, stumbled into what may be the biggest weight-loss breakthrough of our lifetime.
For decades she ran West Burbank Chiropractic Center, quietly perfecting Myoprobe Therapy®—a hands-on, drug-free technique that often melts away years of arthritis pain and restores full motion to frozen shoulders and hips. Patients would walk in hunched over and leave standing tall, many in tears of gratitude.
While teaching these same patients simple mind-body connection exercises for pain management, something strange kept happening. They would return for their next appointment noticeably lighter. Ten pounds. Fifteen pounds. Sometimes twenty. When Dr. Hill asked what new diet they were following, the answer was always the same: “I’m not on a diet. I just… don’t feel like overeating anymore.”
That observation launched years of careful refinement. What finally emerged is called the Shield Method—a way to activate the exact same “super willpower” we already use unconsciously every single day when we drive on the freeway. Think about it: we hurtle down the 405 at 75 mph, inches from 40-ton trucks, yet we almost never crash (success rate well over 99%) and somehow stay completely relaxed. Dieters, by contrast, feel miserable and fail multiple times a day.
Dr. Hill’s insight was simple but profound: why not teach the brain to use that same effortless, comfortable super-willpower for food?
The results have been almost unbelievable. Early participants describe the moment-of-truth experiences that sound made-up until you hear them over and over. Kathryn J. lost 22 lbs in two months and wrote, “I’m constantly losing weight without really trying… I see my true self emerging after years of being overweight. This program is emotionally healthy and easy to do. What a miracle!”
Judith L. told Dr. Hill, “I would have never believed that I could eat only half a dinner while everyone around me was eating theirs, and still feel totally satisfied. I feel I would do almost anything for Dr. Hill, in appreciation…”
Perhaps the most telling reaction comes from people the very first time the “shield” clicks into place. Dr. Hill says it’s common for grown adults to feel so flooded with relief and joy that they literally want to dance around the room, sing, or jump up and down like kids.
Right now, during launch, the first 500 qualified applicants can take the entire online Shield Method course free (regular price $1,999). You can watch the free introductory lesson at www.shielders.com and decide for yourself.
Sometimes the answers we’ve been desperately searching for have been hiding in plain sight—inside a quiet chiropractic office in Los Angeles, of all places.
