Ever since I was a child I had severe pain in my neck and shoulders. The pain was so strong that I sometimes had to wear a neck brace--my neck and shoulders seemed to be "stuck" in place and I could not turn my head without restriction. In an effort to heal the problem, I went to a half dozen chiropracters, and I had an enormous amount of body work of all types.

Sometimes I would book two massages a week just to diminish the discomfort in this area. All of this effort just gave me temporary relief. Then one day I had a session with Renee Swisko, who had been recommended by Tony and Becky Robbins. I forget all about the session a week later when I went to my weekly yoga class. When it came time to do a backward roll I literally gasped out loud! Prior to working with Renee I would have to hold my neck with both hands and I could hardly roll back at all .

After one session with her, I simply rolled my head back, arching my back as well! Then I noticed that my neck and shoulders seemed "unstuck". That was about four years ago and I am happy to say that I have been pain free--and free to move--ever since!
