Client Testimonials about Body ReAlign
"My wife and I have been helped by Addie for over 24 months with great improvement to our bodies. As an active cyclist with a hip replacement, I would recommend anyone looking for or needing structural realignment to consult Addie as she has assisted with my hip pain. She is both very confident in her abilities and has an excellent concept of how and why humans should be aligned. It has been a pleasure to have had her working in my store for four years and now helping my wife and I as we get older."
- Jim Bohen, Owner of Wild Birds & Gardens
"As a special needs teacher, I seek for ways of being active and staying healthy. I really appreciate being set on daily exercise routines by Addie that I can do before and after a day’s work of sitting. Through the postural alignment therapy and personal training she provides me, I am happily reaching closer to my goals of becoming stronger, looking and feeling more physically fit, and relieving my knee issues and plantar fasciitis."
- Michele Deems, Teacher
“As a water aerobics instructor for the past ten years, I have had an active lifestyle, from blowing glass every day for 40 years, playing tennis, golfing, as well as participating in the exercise classes. All of these activities put demand on my body both muscular and skeletal. Unfortunately this caused me to experience continuous low back pain for at least fifteen years which had limited the activities that I enjoy. Now, Addie has empowered me to take control of my pain. Even from my very first session I felt immediate pain relief! When I feel out of balance I do one of the routines always starting and ending with the same positions. She is a God send. Thank you, Addie!”
- Nina Caron, Water Aerobics Instructor
"As a tennis professional of 26 years, my consultations with Addie have been a very eye-opening experience. The treatment and exercises she introduces to my daily routine has been well-worth the time and visits. I notice a significant difference and it would certainly benefit other individuals. The service Addie provides is a great advantage to improving your lifestyle and I will definitely be recommending my friends, family, and colleagues to seek her assistance. It is making a positive change to my body and my life. Thank you very much for your help, Addie.
- Alvin Trotter, Tennis Instructor
"As a marathon runner and running coach in British Columbia, Canada, Addie happily helped me improve my form and comfort of running. With our long distance apart, she created corrective exercise routines based on my pictures standing and videos walking I sent her via email every two weeks. Running now feels great as my lower back and pelvic area feels stronger. I can really feel the difference between my right and left legs where I didn’t before and I feel a lot less stiff after I run. I think the increased body awareness and improvement in my performance is because of the postural alignment work. I really appreciate Addie's interest and I thank her for it. It makes a real difference knowing that as a practitioner she really cares."
- Richard Monette, Running Coach
“Addie is a wonderful trainer. She made me feel very comfortable and was a great encourager. She was able to help me with a knee injury and the exercises she gave me relieved the pain that I was having. She is a genuine and caring person.”
- Debbie Petersen, Tax and Estate Planner
"My name is Alisha and I am 42 years young. :) I have two very active young boys, 7 and 4. I am a stay-at-home mom who is always doing something: bending, lifting, cleaning, reaching, or holding etc. My posture could use improvement. I always find the comfortable position to be the not-so-good, hunched over, turtle-back position. The first session included Addie measuring my posture, then showing me the exercises. After I did one session, my numbers changed. It was amazing to see the difference in that one session. Addie was very professional and very informative. We have just started the process of aligning my body to what it should be. As a mother, there's often holding kids on one hip, lifting them while using your back and not your legs. So I very much welcome her expertise. I believe with commitment on my part along with the education and knowledge from Addie, I'll be where I need to be in no time."
- Alisha Fox, Mother
"When I was four months pregnant with my third child, I was experiencing horrible low back pain and shooting pain down my leg (sciatica) that I even had to leave work early some days. Seeking help from my doctor, I was only given meds that didn't help me. Then, one day I pulled a back muscle from simply picking a piece of paper off the floor and had to call in sick from work due to the horrid pain. It was absolutely obvious that I stood and walked lopsided. Addie came the same day and very carefully took me through just 5 simple exercises. Just after 20 minutes I stood straighter and my pain eased! Just after four days doing the exercises twice a day, I no longer felt crooked when walking and my body noticeably straightened out. We have the before and after pictures to prove it."
- Zara Recella, Jewelry Department Supervisor
"I have been experiencing back pain for ten years. Just at age 23 and a former soccer player suffering with scoliosis, it would hurt standing for hours in the day styling hair. When I saw Addie, she was very kind, welcoming and passionate about helping me with my back pain. I have seen doctors before for my back pain and have been through many physical therapy sessions. My back has been compared to "Quasimoto" from the Disney movie "The Hunchback of Notre Dame." My sessions with Addie are very quick, easy and fun! She takes all different kinds of measurements of my hips, shoulders and back before and after and it was amazing to not only physically see results, but feel them as well. My time spent with Addie is a life-changing experience because of my back pain relief, and I am truly thankful for her knowledge, skills and services."
- Candace, Hair Stylist
“When I first came to Addie with my severe shoulder pain she was quick to thoroughly explain how postural alignment therapy would be beneficial to me even at 23 years old. She was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and gave me the great sense that ending the discomfort I've been experiencing for years was her number one priority. Addie took the time to properly measure my body to figure out where my shoulder pain was coming from and demonstrated step by step the exercises that would help me to see the greatest results. After every session she continuously checks up on my progress and is always there to answer any questions that I have at any time of the day. With the help of Addie's expertise in postural alignment therapy, I am now able to feel a positive difference in my shoulders as well as with my posture as a whole.”
- Alex Butler, Business Analyst
"I had a great experience with Addie. After just one session, my body was in dramatically better alignment and my lower back pain was diminished. Addie was a total professional as she guided me through each exercise. She actually made the session enjoyable, and my newly-aligned body is grateful for her expertise."
- Ray Fox, Graphic Artist/Web Developer
“At 19 years of age and as a former rower, I had been struggling with a herniated disc for the past two years. My experience with Addie was very professional and she answered all the questions I had about my back and her program. Addie has helped my lower back pain tremendously.”
- David Bennett, Student
"I used to wake up in the middle of almost every night from my pain. Now I am grateful that I sleep peacefully though the nights as my knee, back, and hip pain have been reduced tremendously by doing the exercises Addie recommended me. I also play tennis much more now than before. She has me more than any doctor."
