The Breakdown
At the age of 40 I woke up, with severe and debilitating low back pain that caused deformity in my torso and a stabbing pain that brought me to my knees. I was a mother of two children under the age of two, a wife, and a co-owner of a successful boutique Pilates & Fitness studio.
I had been in the fitness industry for over a decade, and relied on the health of my physical body daily. I was in great shape, worked out regularly, super fit. Why was my body doing this to me? What was wrong with my back? I had never had any major injuries or experienced any physical limitations. I had a breakdown.
I’ll never forget the day it took me 30-minutes to get off the floor.
