Success Stories

Although stunningly simple, the Gokhale Method turns much of conventional wisdom about pain and posture on its head. Each session of the course gave immediate results which have affected my life profoundly, and I now look forward to many years of a healthy neck and back.

I found it to be really intuitive, mentally and physically. I started improving a lot from reading the book. The actual hands-on course has helped me so much just to feel confident and empowered to live in my body again without pain, and get back into the activities I used to like to do.

I personally think this class is life-changing. For over twenty years I would have a spasm in my low back. I was in quite a bit of pain. Since I've learned the techniques with Doreen, I've had no spasms in my back when I go to lay down at night. I loved the class...thank you so much.
