Sara has been a practicing clinical physical therapist since graduating from Ithaca College with a B.S. Cum Laude in Physical Therapy in 1962. She has been specializing in the management of the conditions of osteoporosis, osteopenia, back pain and postural problems since 1984 and, in the same year, became a certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor. She became an APTA-Certified Geriatric Clinical Specialist in 1994 and received an MS in Physical Therapy in 2000. The emphasis of The MEEKS METHOD™ is on improvement in body alignment with the intent of improving muscle contraction and weight-bearing forces on the bones. The conditions of osteopenia, osteoporosis, back pain and postural problems are occurring in all populations-men, women, young adults, older adults, and children. Some people are more at risk than others; however, no-one is totally immune. There is a great need for better understanding of bone health issues among both the public and medical professionals and Sara helps to bridge that gap. Sara's services include:
Sara has several products that might be useful in the personal management of your condition. These products include a book WALK TALL!, a set of 3 educational videos available in DVD format, foam rollers, EZ Posture Pillow, and EZ Posture Strap among others. Please visit the products page and/or call Sara to discuss their use for you.
Sara also teaches S.A.F.E.* Yoga for Skeletal Health, a program for the public, at The Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, Lenox, MA every other year in April or May. And, she teaches BONE CAMP, a program for health and exercise professionals on alternate years in November. Visit www.kripalu.org or call Kripalu direct at 1-800-741-7353 for more information. Sara is also available to teach other public programs.
*S.A.F.E. = Skeletally Appropriate For Everyone
