About this workshop
In this free workshop, you’ll start to learn the why and the how of the Gokhale Method.
Do you:
- Find it difficult to sleep, sit, or stand comfortably?
- Keep getting told back pain is “normal” for your age, body type, or lifestyle?
- Not see lasting results from massage, chiropractic, or other therapies?
- Want relief that doesn’t involve surgery or medication?
This workshop will show you how to get started with the Gokhale Method and return to moving like you are meant to—free from pain. With simple adjustments to the way you stand, sleep, bend, and sit, you can transform your posture and address the cause of your back pain, not just the symptoms.
“Several months ago, when I first heard about the Gokhale Method from a friend who is an occupational therapist, I considered taking one of the free classes to get a better idea of what it entailed. However, I kept putting it off thinking that I should wait until my back felt better. After all, how was I going to sit for an hour and a half in a classroom when I couldn’t even sit 10 minutes in my own home due to severe sciatica pain? Finally I decided to attend one of the free classes thinking that I would just stand in the back of the room if the pain became too intolerable. The instructor started us out by teaching the stretchsitting technique which, to my great surprise, was very comfortable for my back and leg. Imagine my amazement when I realized that I had sat pain-free for 45 minutes! Now I am taking the course learning new positions for walking, lying, standing, bending, and more. The entire Method has been a true revelation, and I shall be using it for the rest of my life to promote good back health. I only wish I hadn't waited so long to take that free class!”
