We bought bags of sea soil from Costco yesterday. They are heavy and I have struggled to carry them in past years... yesterday no problem to pick them up, carry them up the back stairs and across the back yard. I felt strong!! Thank you for the great workouts that always challenge us!

I have been working with Meghan O'Connell for about four months now to develop a program to assist me with my Parkinson's which I diagnosed with approximately eight years ago. The main problems were stiffness of the legs, a listing in my posture and a sciatic nerve problem which often follows as a result of PD.

I'm pleased to state that we're making surprising progress to all three issues as a result of a program of stretches, breathing and walking on both treadmill and with applied resistance that Meghan has set up. I hope to be able to discontinue the use entirely of all pain killer medications I have relied on for much of the past several years.
