Sue Smith's Testimonial about Roberta Cooks

I never had serious back problems before, until a year ago. I had sciatica that didn’t improve with physical therapy; in fact, the harder I worked, the more pain I had. I tried some alternative therapies, but nothing was helping, only making the inflammation worse. At that point an MRI showed a cyst in the spine pressing on the nerve. I heard about Esther during my months of pain and inactivity, and was invited to an online introduction. Then I had a consultation with Esther, and she explained what the process would be to give the spine a chance to repair itself.

Luckily for me, Roberta Cooks is located an hour away from me. I took the Gokhale Foundations Course with her, in person. I am so grateful for hr insight, patience, encouragement and kindness. Her breadth of knowledge is special- she’s an M.D., too! When you have pain, there has to be an element of trust to progress. Her experience and knowledge helped me to trust Roberta to deliver the help I needed to move forward. Roberta is a wonderful teacher who is flexible and generous. I cannot thank her enough for helping to bring me back to an active life, and would recommend her to anyone. The doctors I was seeing were extremely impressed with my progress, and I gave all credit to Esther and Roberta, hoping they will send others in this direction.
