Susan Avoids Back Surgery

Susan’s Challenges

I have experienced low back pain for several years.  Over time, it got progressively worse.  The pain brought me to seek medical attention and I was diagnosed with two ruptured discs and severe degenerative disc disease.  Surgery was recommended.  I was willing to try anything and to avoid surgery.

What Susan Tried

Acupuncture was suggested along with yoga.  I had been practicing yoga for 10 years but had only experienced moderate relief.  I tried several Chiropractors before I began the practice Ellen showed me. 

What Worked

Custom Calm yoga was introduced through series of coincidences.  I began a daily practice along with acupuncture.  I experienced relief within several weeks.  I continue to practice Custom Calm yoga on a daily basis, including bed yoga  and have no pain for over 12 years.

 In addition, my range of motion has been restored to near normalcy.  The healing I have experienced though Custom Calm yoga has been miraculous.  I feel more energized, look younger and am no longer limited in my day-to-day living.  I would recommend Custom Calm practices to anyone interested in improving their quality of life.  It keeps me off the operating table and out of constant pain.  IT WORKS!!

What you can learn from Susan’s Experiences

When we are looking for ways to help ourselves when facing pain, we try many venues.  Even yoga practices are not all the same and Custom Calm practices are specifically customized to target specific tensions in the body.  Susan is committed to avoiding surgery and she practices simple techniques daily.  The physical practices also affect energy level and overall health.  Susan’s daily life has changed dramatically from the practices.
