“I woke up one morning hearing a ringing in my ears, and I knew that the stress of my job as an executive assistant to a high-tech consultant was getting to me.
I had dull tension headaches, and I felt stiff a lot of the time. I felt like I wasn't doing very well at a lot of parts of my life because I just didn't feel well. I always thought I'd have time to get in shape and get healthy later but with work, my family, and marriage, I didn't think I had time to make myself a priority.
At the age of 47 I had open-heart surgery for a congenital defect . While I successfully recovered from that surgery, I didn't really feel comfortable in my body.
Luckily I found my way to Dr. John Steigerwald and have taken the simple actions to change this pattern of not being healthy. If you told me a year ago that I only need to drop into his studio twice a week for 15 minutes — and I'd feel this way a year later — I would certainly have been skeptical.”
