Testimony: “I relieved my back by learning to breathe and doing stretching exercises.”

Dany, 56.

“Before my backache developed, I had eczema rashes on my hands as a result of my job. On holidays, everything disappeared as if by magic! Last summer, I went on holiday after a week of intense work and began to suffer from a slipped disc, that couldn’t be relieved with any anti-inflammatory drugs. Meanwhile, I took care of my brother until he died. He was affected by a tumour. My daughter began to suffer from school phobia. Rheumatologists and physiotherapists were powerless, incapable of providing relief, and asserted that I was suffering from depression.

However, then my new physiotherapist saved me! Her methods are based on breathing and repositioning the body to release tension. Very receptive, she recommended me to begin an analytical approach as well. From her side, she helps me to take care of myself, to breathe from the stomach, and to stretch my body. As a result, I am less worried for my daughter; I no longer call her every two hours! Concerning my job, I changed departments.”
