My client Jo and how I have helped her be able to get back to doing the normal day to day of life.

Rachelle, I initially was recommended by two separate sources that advised that I should visit you.  I finally listened and was ready to move forward and try and improve my health and strength.  Before the first session I was nervous but really looking forward to see if I could improve my health, reduce my daily pain and become as strong as I could with what I had to work with.

What a revelation! After that first session and for the whole week following I used the No.1 lesson that I took away from that session.  I learnt how to breathe to protect my pelvic floor.  I found that when using the breathing techniques whilst performing my everyday home duties, the pain reduction was phenomenal.  In some cases there was no pain, whereas before I would always experience pain.  I actually felt, for the first time in many years that there may be a chance of improving my situation.

I was really surprised when I was on holidays for two weeks how much walking and other activities I could cope with.  I didn’t have high hopes of being able to participate in all activities with the family.  We walked a trail 8 kms long and I did the whole beautiful walk.  I only missed part of one activity and that was because my knees were having troubles with the different ground levels.  It certainly built my confidence and knew that I was on the right track and improving.

The biggest success so far is that I feel so much stronger and the severity and frequency of the pain has reduced substantially.  Small tasks that used to cause pain and were so difficult, now seem easy and I feel like I am getting my life back bit by bit.

I avoided trying something different for a long time.  I am so glad I gave the program a go.  In retrospect I should have started ages ago. Give it a go and you may be surprised like I am with the change in myself and feeling that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Rachelle.

Cheers

Jo
