“Every year tens of thousands of patients undergo major back surgery without any benefit. By using the novel techniques of the Gokhale Method, many of these patients can avoid such needless and expensive medical procedures and quickly return to a pain-free life.”
~ John R. Adler, Neurosurgeon, Stanford University Medical Clinic, Stanford, CA
