ERICA EDES
Fitness
and well-being came to the forefront of her life since she suffered
from chronic back pain in her early twenties. Having tried everything
she returned to the Alexander Technique which she had encountered as a
teenager. She knew it was a long-term solution so embarked on the
teacher training. She arrived hunched over and hobbling around after a
back operation and left 3 years later with much better movement and
agility than she had previously due to her injuries.
She had
abandoned the notion that she would ever have children so was delighted
to have a smooth pregnancy and labour 2 years after finishing training.
Having personally experienced chronic pain and realising the emotional,
physical and mental consequences of disease she believes she can help
people to help themselves. The road to recovery is often one littered
with self-discovery, which is not always welcome, so support through
this process is essential. She can empathise with the feeling of
‘having tried everything else’ and "being at the end of the line" – this
could be the beginning of a process of self-empowerment and change.
