Testimonials:
"After my appointment with you I had little to no pain for the rest of the day and just felt relaxed. This morning I woke up with my usual pain so I decided to do the program you wrote out for me and...no pain for most of the day. I have decided to do the program in the morning and again at night where I can do it in peace. I am very excited and I wish we had met many years ago." ~Marie Y.


"Hello to those interested in yoga having a positive and everlasting effect on your life and health. I wanted to share my experience working with Caroline. About 1 1/2 year ago, I had a 2 month period where I enlisted her services as a yoga therapist. I had a narrow window of time before I relocated to a Northwestern state.

My history and reason for seeking her services was chronic hip pain. After having no improvement from traditional physical therapy, I wanted to try yoga therapy. I had enjoyed attending yoga classes for a few years prior but had not been successful in helping my pain by just attending class. I was impressed with Caroline’s approach from the first visit as she spent time with me especially in inspecting my frame, strength and capabilities. She paid particular attention to my physical status and was the first individual to take note of my mild scoliosis and feel that it may have an effect on my overall posture and strength. She built a program for me utilizing my strengths that progressed in the level of complexity.

I met with Caroline weekly to get going on an accelerated program. She was positive and supportive of my slowly improving practice. Her studio was comfortable, peaceful and inviting. It reflected her calm and reassuring personality. The key to success with development with yoga therapy is the combination of expert guidance and an ongoing home practice. I found that in the short period I worked with Caroline, I made significant advances in building strength in the supporting muscle groups. I was able to see a gradual lessening of my pain. I appreciated the opportunity to work with Caroline and would recommend her to others with conditions that cause chronic pain. I have not found an individual with a similar warm and engaging spirit in my new home city. " ~Karen G.
