Esther Gokhale G.

Business Owner

Esther Gokhale (go-​clay) graduated from Princeton with a degree in Biochemistry and earned her C.A. from the San Francisco College of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. After personal struggles with back pain, unsuccessful back surgery, and a dismal prognosis, she began what would become a lifelong dedication to understanding and addressing the root causes of pain. After a five-​year study and certification in Aplomb®, a French movement re-​education technique, Esther traveled to Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America to study posture and movement in populations with a low incidence of back pain. She continued her academic studies, taking courses in anatomy and anthropology at Stanford. Her education, training, and research enabled her to develop a unique, systematic method of restoring pain-​free posture and movement, which is taught at the Palo Alto center. Her technique is detailed in her bestselling book, ‘8 Steps to a Pain-​Free Back’. The Gokhale Method® is now taught worldwide.
