Egoscue and my therapist, Tamara Hanson, have been invaluable to me! After 5.5 years of 2-3 migraines per week and 5.5 years of seeing more practitioners than I can count, I finally found a something that is working. The root of my problem, as Egoscue identified, was structural and muscular imbalances throughout my body - caused by a decades at a desk job. These imbalances caused a cervical issue, triggering the migraines. I work with Tamara remotely - Egoscue has the comprehensive technology to enable the therapist to see the imbalances, identify movements to help and then compare the results. This is an incredible tool that my very capable therapist uses at each session. Tamara then gives me about 15 min of e-cises to do each day - all easy to follow with the Egoscue app. Their app is amazing, but so is Tamara. She thinks. She questions. I can tell by her answers to my questions that she really knows what the body is doing or not doing. I am truly grateful to Pete Egoscue and to Tamara for finally finding relief from the pain.

Tamara is my trainer, she’s terrific. Evaluating & improving my postural positives and negatives. Leading me pleasantly and professionally to a stronger musculoskeletal way of life. Lots of fun to work right from the comfort of my home. Thank you Tamara.

I have been struggling with back pain and failed surgeries for over 30 years. In January I had stem cell and bone marrow aspiration, and my post procedure instructions recommended that Egoscue posture training would benefit me. I had never heard of this method. During recovery I read Pete Egoscue’s book, Pain Free, and decided to explore this option. I have been working with Josh for a few short months now and I am so pleased with my results. He is knowledgeable, professional, and understanding. Josh makes sure that I understand the ecizes and their purpose, along with ensuring that I have the correct form. My progress is well documented with photos and I can see the change in my posture. Kudos to Josh and Egoscue of Tampa!

When I first met Josh at Egoscue Tampa I was struggling in pain from a recurring lower back injury. It's a helpless feeling when you can never get comfortable and barely tie your own shoes. I'd gone through physical therapy a few times only to re-injure myself repeatedly. One doctor was adamant I go for surgery. I explained the whole thing to Josh and told him I sick of this injury always coming back and I need to "fix" this thing for good. He walked me through the Egoscue principles and approach, answered all my questions, customized a program strategy based on my body and we got to work strait away. Less than 1 month later I was skiing out in Park City! Thought for sure I'd be on the sidelines. 6 months and 3 more ski trips later I barely think of my injury. I keep up with my Egoscue visits and exercises, I'm crushing it at the gym again and living pain free. It's awesome! Thanks to Josh and the gang at Egoscue!!

Christi and her team have been great! When I first started going there about 4 or 5 years ago, I was experiencing chronic hip pain when sitting, getting up, and running. After a few sessions with Christi, the hip pain went away and hasn't returned since! Also being an active Dad with two young boys and a girl, my shoulder stopped hurting as much when throwing balls, and my running felt much smoother. As long as I attend a session every couple of months and stay loyal to the "menus" giving to me, I feel great! This is a huge relief as I thought I was just going to have to deal with aches and pains the rest of my life. I also have a Physical Therapist friend in Iowa who saw me in person a year after I started going to Egoscue. She just said to me, "Whatever you're doing... Keep doing it. You're walking and moving way better!" Also, note... I think they do such a good job that I drive 90 minutes to see them. I would give more than 5 stars if I could!

I started my healing journey back in August with Tamara as my instructor. I had a hip and knee replacement last year so I know I needed much more than physical therapy could provide. She has worked with me encompassing a physical, emotional and mental approach; getting to know me on a personal basis. That is very important to me as the exercises have brought up layers of emotional deeply imbedded past trauma. We do hold a lot in our bodies over the years, so this was a big undertaking for me. It involves commitment and perseverance, working on positions catered to what your body needs and she has my back all the time. She answers my questions, of which I ask a lot of and tries to find an alternative solution to an exercise that may be challenging for me. I am thankful to be in this program as I see slow improving steps each week as well as getting to unwind my body into a more functioning one.

At 70 years old with two joint replacements that helped the joint pain but twisted my body and created more aches and pains, I was at the end of my rope and somewhat hopeless. A friend told me about the book "Pain Free". I purchased it, but believing it was probably too good to be true I left it on my shelf for 6 months. In desperation I read it. It made SO much sense to me. (I"m a fitness trainer and Health Coach). I tried some of the exercises but didn't want to waste any time figuring out the best ones for me. I called Egoscue Tampa. Tamara answered and changed everything for me. The method she described was so specific and scientific that I took the plunge and paid for a package. Tamara has helped me every step of the way. We have navigated the twists and turns of this body and are unraveling my posture difficulties to create a pain free me. (I considered that I had great posture, just because I stood up straight). It is amazing to me how seemingly small misalignments can create such a cascade of problems and pain. I consider Tamara a personal friend at this point and someone who has been invaluable to my journey towards wellness. Robin Moon, Sarasota Florida

Tamara, her team and the Egoscue program is great! It has helped me tremendously to function in all aspects of my life. I feel like I've been completely remodeled from head to toe. I hope I am blessed to continue with this program for the rest of my life!
