Summary: What a great way to start your day....
Review: Having recently injured my back I was anxious to learn about ways to keep my back healthy. I want to continue to lead an active adult life. I attended one of Mimi's sessions and was surprised that even after one session - my lower back pain was eased! My entire body felt relaxed and more limber! Not only are the stretches and toning exercises clearly demonstrated by Mimi but the music and background images (lovely beach) put you in the right frame of mind. The 2-15 minute sessions seem like no time at all. Give yourself the gift of time. Great job, Mimi!

Summary: "Able to stand tall"
Review: I had worked in the Plumbing Heating and Cooling business and the constant lifting and working in miserable conditions had caused my bottom three discs to crack and leak.

I slept on the floor in a ball every night and crawled to my hands and knees. After 6 months of using this DVD every day, I'm able to play golf 3 times a week and teach my workshops on my feet from 8 to 4 PM without having to take pain killers.

Relief from back pain is the gift you give when you buy this DVD for yourself or someone else who is suffering

Summary: This works
Review: I was diagnosed with a herniated disc. I was sent to physical therapy and pain medications. My back pain was still there. My wife suggested I get Mimi's DVD. I am so glad I did. When I started the exercise program on the DVD, I still had back pain, but the exercises were gentle enough that I could still make it through all 30 minutes. As a result of following the program my back pain is relieved. I no longer have weeks that I have to walk crooked with back spasms. The program relaxs, strengthens, and stretches. I have flexibility I never did before.
Mimi is a great instructor. I would recommend this tape to anyone with back problems. For the cost of one co-payment at physical therapy, I can now just put on the DVD and get results I never got at physical therapy. I no longer have to take the pain meds. I hope this doesn't sound like an informercial. I got the DVD and it worked. I feel better.

Summary: Get Back in Shape with Mimi Solaire
Review: Mimi Solaire, made an incredible video in the foreground of the beaches of Whitsunday Islands in Australia called "Back In Shape." This video is well instructed and easy to follow regardless at which level you would be on, from beginner to advanced. The workout was carefully constructed combining yoga techniques and chiropractic principles. I also didn't mention that Dr. Parsons, is also included in this video as well. Dr. Parsons has worked with Olympic athletes and also is on the team of several "Ultimate Fighters" where he uses his chiropractic charms.

"Back In Shape" is broken into two 15 minute workouts as well as combining both workouts into one ½ hour workout. Either way that you should choose to use this video, each session that was collaborated between Mimi Solaire and Dr. Ryan Parsons, will help you strengthen your abdominal muscles, improve your flexibility, and of course HELP you BUILD a STRONGER BACK!

To set out the highlights, I have listed them below:

• Uniquely combines the traditional strengthening exercises and relaxation techniques to maintain a healthy back as well as healing your back
• Safe and effective for beginner. The exercises are appropriate for men and women of all ages and levels of fitness in a step-by-step, easy to follow format
• Session 1: Begins with a series of three breathing exercises to reduce stress followed by hip opening exercises to help reduce sciatica and lower back pain and lengthen the hamstrings. Abdominal and back strengthening exercises develop a strong core to support the spine.
• Session 2: Focuses on the neck and shoulders to relieve tension and increase mobility. Exercises promote spinal flexibility.
• Filmed on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Hill Inlet on the Whitsunday Islands, Great Barrier Reef of Australia - providing a perfect and backdrop for a tranquil and peaceful environment.
• Set to music by Dean Evenson titled Ocean Dreams for the ultimate in relaxation.
• All exercises can be done in the convenience of your home - a comfortable surface to lie upon and a towel are all that is needed

This is beautifully produced Video that I hope everyone checks out at one point or another. It will cover all the aspects of back health which is what Mimi Solaire specializes in with her classes in Phoenix and Scottsdale.
