This review is from: Chair, Floor, and Standing Routines: Ageless Yoga (2 Vol. Set): Great for Seniors and for All Sizes, Shapes, and Conditions (DVD)

Six weeks ago I decided that the pain from my osteoarthritic hip and back had become too much to bear. I felt that my body needed authentic healing beyond pain killers or surgery. I had read that yoga is an excellent treatment for arthritis, but how could I do yoga as crippled as I was? John's approach has become my answer. His gentle, immediately engaging instruction takes the student clearly and concisely through techniques of breathing, meditation and movement that have the combined effect of gradually freeing the joints, reducing pain, increasing strength and lightening the spirit. Because of such noticeable improvement in my own condition, I am gaining confidence that I might be able to work toward actually healing a condition that is normally described as degenerative. I highly recommend John's program for anyone at all - and particularly for those who feel weak, confined or hopeless because of their age or disability. Many of the routines are suitable even if you are confined to a wheelchair. Whatever your limitations are, I'm confident that you will derive great benefit both physically and emotionally from these excellent DVD's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!, February 14, 2008

This review is from: Chair, Floor, and Standing Routines: Ageless Yoga (2 Vol. Set): Great for Seniors and for All Sizes, Shapes, and Conditions (DVD)

I have wanted to try yoga for years but I have too many physical limitations. Then I discovered John's Ageless Yoga videos. After only three 1/2 hour sessions my body feels better than it has in years. My chiropractor said that my adjustment has never been easier! I am making chair yoga a regular part of my self-care routine. With the different length programs I know that I'll always have time for at least some small part. Just make sure that you have time to relax afterwards. The only other activity that leaves me this relaxed is hypnosis. ;)

This review is from: Chair, Floor, and Standing Routines: Ageless Yoga (2 Vol. Set): Great for Seniors and for All Sizes, Shapes, and Conditions (DVD)

I was introduced to John Schlorholtz' yoga through a friend and though I had tried yoga when I was in my thirties, now in my mid seventies with a lower back problem, I was somewhat skeptical. However, after using Ageless Yoga DVDs: Chair, Floor & Standing Routines for several years I am delighted with the results. Now at 78 I feel so much more flexible & totally free from my lower back pain. I have abundant energy & good balance. Friends enjoy receiving the 2 vol. sets as gifts & I bring my own DVDs with me when I travel to keep limber. I am grateful for having discovered them and they have my highest recommendation.
