My Story & the Egoscue Method
If, like me, you have suffered long term pain and tried many solutions you have come to the right place.
Here is my story - You could achieve the same results too
I first came across the Egoscue method in 1994, through my own pain and dysfunction and after having tried practically everything else. I was in pain, and pretty bad pain. So many different things had started to go wrong in my body, and having always been quite fit and healthy, as an athlete it didn't make sense.
Previously I had spinal surgery, surgery on both my knees, surgery on trigger thumbs, and now I was suffering with acute golfers elbow, chronic right sacroiliac joint pain, pain in the left side of the cervical spine from DJD and tendinitis in my right hand.
After reading the book ‘pain free’ by Pete Egoscue I knew I had the solution to all of my problems, there it was on the 19th page, It was all to do with the position of my body, the answer - poor posture!
After my first visit to a postural alignment therapist, I knew I was on the right track, by the third session all of my symptoms had started to improve. I was so excited about the results I had had from the treatment, I signed up for the Egoscue educational programme and booked a flight out to the Egoscue clinic in San Diego to start the training to become a therapist myself. Having spent all my life involved in health and fitness and martial arts, it all made so much sense to me, a practical way of healing the body without surgery, drugs, or manipulation.
I qualified in the basic ‘Egoscue Postural Alignment Specialist’ qualification in June 2005 and I have been practising in the therapy ever since. In January of 2006 following I went back to the clinic at San Diego and qualified in the ‘Advanced Egoscue Postural Alignment Specialist' qualification.
With the Egoscue method, I have benefitted from amazing improvements in my own body and the results for my clients have been very rewarding.
Being to share this wonderful treatment with other people is truly a gift.
