Client Highlight: Laurie Wayburn
Next in our client highlight series we have Laurie Wayburn, who found ABOW after a mountaineering injury.
How did you come across ABOW?
My spouse introduced me to ABOW — what a great suggestion!
What are your fitness goals and are you achieving them?
I had suffered for years from debilitating pain resulting from a major fall mountaineering. My simple goal was to relieve that pain by learning to work differently with my posture, movement, etcetera. I met with Jean that first time, and it was quite amazing how she analyzed the sources of my problems, not simply empathizing with the pain. It has made a transformational difference for me, reducing the number of times I am incapacitated and also showing me how to deal with a spasm when it happens. I am fortunate to now work with Margaret Tappan, has also been amazingly helpful.
What keeps you coming back to ABOW?
I learn! It helps me! Every session I leave feeling better, more grounded and saner. Perhaps the most important thing about ABOW is that it operates on the philosophy of healing: instructors are more interested in training and enabling you to be pain free and healthy than anything else. That is a gift.
