Jill Massengill, D.C.

"Anita's Undulation is wonderful! We all know the value of exercise for staying healthy and yet often we either can't find the time or else we really "go for it" and inadvertently injure ourselves in the process. Anita explains clearly what causes the body to become stiff and old and then shows us simple, easy movements that will re-hydrate the tissue throughout our body-muscles, joints and cartilage-and bring us back into a youthful balance and suppleness. Don't let the ease and simplicity of her system fool you-it is nothing short of amazing. I am recommending this book to all of my students."
Michaela Kapilla, yoga instructor

Hellerwork

"Hellerwork has reintroduced my mind to my body. I have learned how I move, and how to move more freely. As a result, I am enjoying a life free from chronic pain."
S. Alto, Bothell, WA

"Anita is a godsend. The work she performed pried apart squeaky muscles and joints and put them back together with increased lubrication and movement. I do not hurt in places where I used to hurt. I used to stand with my hips off-kilter, the right held above the left, in order to protect my lower back. I now stand straight most of the time. Many people with whom I work and spend time asked me what was different about me because I looked taller to them. I am. I have improved my posture and regained nearly an inch in height.

"I categorize my results this way. First, I have a keener understanding of how this body thing works and how to make it work as intended. I have also learned it is an ongoing process of making the body work and not just exist. Every session Anita gives me a small slip of paper with a movement to focus on and try to improve. I think Anita is kind, caring and, when necessary, really knows how to let her elbows do the talking!"
A. Hall, Fall City, WA

"I felt immediately comfortable with Anita; I know that she had my best interests at heart. My riding instructor suggested that I get some "bodywork" to help me be a more balanced horseback rider. I also had chronic hip pain. I now am better on my horse. I learned about posture, walking properly and hip movements -- and you have to keep moving or you'll lose it."
M. Petitti, Sammamish, WA

"My Hellerwork Series was very educational - it not only helped to loosen up tight areas of my body, but it especially taught me how my habit patterns contribute to my own pain, and how to change it. I tried Hellerwork to relieve low back pain that bothered me most mornings. After the Series I have that pain only occasionally, and I know how to relieve it."
K. Jensen, Kirkland, WA
