Best help I've found yet for back pain! March 21, 2010

I stumbled upon this book in the Chiropractor's office. I have been searching for answers for 10 years on how to stand, sit, sleep, bend, and walk after years of back pain and posture guarding and distortion. This book holds all the answers with easy to follow step-by-step illustrations and photographs. I was so very impressed with my results: free of pain, ease in posture, restful nights without waking in pain, and an increase in my height by 3/4 of an inch!!!!! I followed my study of the book by signing up for her workshop, which was equally fulfilling, it is not a must as the book is a self-teaching tool, but the workshop does offer additional individual advantages.
I fully recommend this book to anyone with any type of back or posture troubles. The photographs alone are reason enough to buy it or give it as a gift to your loved ones.
Esther is a kind and wonderful human being who genuinely cares about the health and well-being of others, a joy to learn from.
Pain free all around March 19, 2010

This book is pain free all around. Simple to understand, full of wonderful photos from around the world that illustrate the main premise of the book - that industrialized nations have lost touch with their posture.
The biomechanics of this system were easy to follow, the photos that followed each step were easy to decipher - and the language was clear, well written and to the point.

The directions are precise and the step-by-step photos walk you through the life-changing posture advice. I started with the glide-walking technique and moved on to other steps. This book is exactly what I needed to rebuild my strength and protect my back after surgery for a herniated disc. Finally I know what healthy posture is. I have recommended this book to many friends.
Wonderful! February 25, 2010

I love this book. It is such a wonderfully relaxed way to have good posture and a pain-free back. With this method, you don't feel like you are overly exaggerating postural moves, but just learning the natural, relaxed way to stand, walk and just live.
A must read for back pain February 23, 2010

I first saw this book in a physical therapist's office. The colorful photos and easy introduction caught my attention. It was clear to me in just a few pages that we have sorely gone off track with our posture in the United States and elsewhere.
I bought the book and found the exercises approachable and easy to do. They helped me with my back pain. Esther Gohkale does a great job of breaking down the activities into simple easy steps to follow. Most people will find the sitting, standing and lying exercises doable just from reading the book. The same is true of the other content. There are some great stretches in the back as well.
I've had several people, including a pulmonologist whom I respect a lot for his analysis and pragmatic approach, tell me that Esther Gohkale's methods changed their lives. If you read this book, you'll see it just makes sense. She's not proposing anything funny, unusual or even innovative. We used to sit and stand this way years ago. She's just taking us back to the basics. I have also eliminated my back pain by making these important changes to my posture. Frankly, I think this book should be required reading for everyone. We should teach it in schools too. I'm a big believer!
