      Chiropractor, Physical Therapy

    I have scoliosis and osteoporosis. I will never be able to totally cure either of them - especially the scoliosis. General core strengthening and stretching keep most of the pain away. I recently completed the Gokhale Method's Elements program with the hope that posture awareness would help minimize the negative effects of my issues. The online classes were very helpful since the instructor was very focused on my issues, explained the concepts fully, used multiple types of examples, and gave me specific, detailed feedback. Since taking the classes, I am very aware of my posture and how proper posture can keep me pain-free.
