A Testimonial
from Christina Jacobs |
13 years ago,
at the age of 12, I had scoliosis surgery—two stainless steel
metal rods were placed alongside my spine fusing all but 3 vertebrae
at the bottom of my spine and four at the top. Bone was also taken
from my hip and fused on top of my spine. A year after the surgery
my doctor told me I could do anything except tumbling—I pretty
much took him on his word; I grew up playing competitive sports and
believe my youth definitely helped my body recover from the surgery
so well. However, despite an active, athletic life-style, my body
and my back muscles were compensating to the rods. I was initially
introduced to Bikram yoga before I moved to NYC and upon moving was
concerned about finding a studio that made me feel comfortable and
that would understand my personal situation and needs. After trying
a couple of different studios, a friend-of-a-friend told me about
Some like it Hot Yoga—and I have never looked back since. I was introduced to Yola and immediately impressed by not only the warmth of her personality but also how she sought to understand my personal situation—she was genuinely interested and genuinely cared. Actively, she began to help me understand my back and my hip as well as awaken muscles that had lain dormant for more than a decade. |
