Gokhale Method

Posted by gravity3 @gravity3, 1 day ago

I have seen this spoken of in the Osteoporosis group here on Mayo Connect. Has anyone in the spine group experienced this and, if so, what is your feedback. I have spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis and I am almost 78. Thanks

I have severe L4/5 spinal stenosis and have had excellent results following the Gokhale method.

Did you do Gokhale in person or through videos? I spoke with a Gokhale person in my area and am considering it. Does it have to do with posture improvement or exercise? I’ve seen the pillow thing that gets attached to a chair. Any elaboration you can offer about Gokhale I’d really appreciate!

I did a daylong group training class. The method looks to improve posture with respect to how we stand, sit, sleep, move. It’s not focused on exercise as such, but how we move when doing so.
