Client Success Stories

Successful Senior Executive changes hectic life style a more balanced one.

"Prior to meeting you, I had been on a 2 year search attempting to get pain relief and relief from a basket of symptoms that I was having at the time. My journey included homeopathic medicine, acupuncture, massage, chiropractic medicine, 2 visits to 2 general practitioners, visits to the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona, and visits to approximately 12 medical specialists. Although the above treatments are good for some people and various illnesses, I did not make progress until I met you. Within 12 weeks of weekly appointments with you I have found the following results: prior to meeting you I was pain free 1 day per week. I am now pain free approximately 5 days per week; upon doing yoga, I am pain free immediately afterwards, I had suffered intermittent lower back pain since 1979. Since meeting you, most of that pain has dissipated and has only reoccurred once; you have taught me how to relax in my office when I am surrounded by panic, turmoil and everyday disputes and stress that occurs in "normal business". My body no longer feels like a clenched fist; I sleep better at nights with less interruptions or awakenings; my fatigue has disappeared."

"Yoga helped me through a serious health situation and now has begun to add
such positive dimensions to my life that I can't help but recommend it to
you. It was a struggle to find a qualified teacher who worked with medical
concerns, knew their stuff with Yoga, but also cared about each student in
order that the benefits to me were maximized. I hope this note will save you
that search when I highly recommend the personalized programs of Susi Hately
Aldous to you. She is nothing short of a gem in my books."
