FOF Yamuna Zake is giving away one of her YAMUNA® Body Rolling Gold Beginner Kits (retail value: $60.95), a body healing and realignment system. Enter to win by answering this question in the comments below: What aches and pains have been bothering you lately?
Yamuna Zake knew at a very young age that she was destined to help people. Thinking the best way to do that would be through a career as a teacher, she pursued a degree in education. It was only after Yamuna sustained an injury that she found her true calling. She started developing a system of body healing, now known as YAMUNA® Body Logic.
“Body Logic is a very deep hands on therapy,” explains Yamuna. “We assess and reorganize the structure of the body.” Yamuna uses her hands to work each part of her client’s bodies to get the muscles elongated and toned, and to make the body’s range of movement unrestricted. The practice of YAMUNA® Body Logic creates a space between muscle and bone, enabling the body to work in a logical and correct order, to perform optimally. “People came to me from all over the world for help solving back, shoulder, and knee problems,” says Yamuna. “Finally I thought, ‘how can I make this available to everybody?'”
Aiming to bring Body Logic to the masses, Yamuna developed a ball to use for YAMUNA® Body Rolling. “Body rolling uses very specific sized balls with different weights, densities, and sizes,” says Yamuna. “They are used to actually organize your anatomy so that everything works smoothly, correctly, and effortlessly.” Instead of Yamuna using her hands to heal body issues and restore body alignment, the ball does the same action and motion that a hand would, allowing people to do the work themselves. “You’re using your own body weight on the ball,” explains Yamuna, “You’re sitting on the ball, you’re lying back into the ball, you’re lying face down into the ball, working deep into your abdomen.”
“Women of my age were all running around doing high intense aerobics,” says Yamuna. “My generation was told to run for your health, do high impact aerobics, and now women are really suffering.” Yamuna says that it is especially important for women over fifty to avoid high-impact fitness. “In your fifties, joints wear, aging happens in your muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones,” she says. “Your estrogen levels decrease — there is more stiffness, tightness, structural injury, and weight gain.”
Yamuna says that FOFs who haven’t exercised in awhile and then try to engage in high-impact activities “don’t lose weight because they have so much impact in their bodies.” She explains that Body Rolling help smooths the transition and acclimate the body to physical activity. “Once women turn it around with YAMUNA® Body Rolling, they can go back to doing what they love, and they can be pain free.”
Currently, Yamuna has a network of over 2,000 licensed practitioners who are healing people through her Body Rolling system. “We have group classes, private classes–we have practitioners all over the place,” says Yamuna. ” All you need to do is go to our website and find a practitioner.”
“So many people’s bodies get stiff and tired when they get older,” Yamuna says. “YAMUNA® Body Rolling really works, and helps people get amazing results.”
Enter to win a YAMUNA® Body Rolling Gold Beginner Kit by answering this question in the comments below: what aches and pains have been bothering you lately?
One FOF will win. (See all our past winners, here.) (See official rules, here.) Contest closes October 18sth, 2012 at midnight E.S.T. Contest limited to residents of the continental U.S.

My hip on one side and my knee on the other usually ache. I walk quickly instead of running anymore, but I am worried that soon that will also not be a good idea. I am 59 and want to stay in good shape, plus not gain weight. I see it’s starting to creep up, then I overwork to try to burn some calories. Then the aches. I need this system.
Angela Neynaber says:
My back has been really bad but I am also 8 months pregnant.

Donna Anklam says:
I’m 56 now and ever since I hit 50 I’ve had pain and stiffness in my feet and shoulders. My most joyful exercise was walking, hiking and slowly I’ve lost the ability to find joy in it. I’d like to rediscover my joy by getting my body back in line and think this would really help me in doing so.

And with all that, I have aching joints all over and tension headaches when I wake up. I don’t want to take RX meds because I fear addictions.

The aches and pains I have been having lately are mostly in my back and left hip. I believe they are the result of the work I was doing.

I am a fit 56-year-old with occasional severe knee pain. The orthopedic doc asked if I was every obese or in a car accident since I have extremely arthritic knees for someone my age.

I would like to look trim, feel healthy and remain youthful for the rest of my life.

Ah–my upper back! And neck & the top of my shoulder. This would be wonderful!

Kelsi Kaplan says:
I have Lupus, so I have lots of joint pain and muscle pain. Most areas of my body hurt sometimes to the point of not being able to sleep. My Dr. wants me to exercise, but when it’s sunny I can’t go outside because I am photosensitive and heat sensitive. I would love to be able to do some sort of exercise that didn’t hurt me. This sounds perfect.

Marisa Fadavi says:
I just had my 59th birthday. My knees are so painful and stiff that I have to use a cane to help me walk. My shoulders hurt. My hands hurt. my feet hurt. Even when I am lying in bed I have to change positions because my legs and arms hurt after I have been lying on one side for too long. I don’t want to take painkillers or sleeping pills so body rolling sounds as though it would be a good solution for my aches and pains.
Rita Harris says:
I have been inactive for about a year now. Was doing good, then got distracted by life. I just went back and joined the gym,,and wow,,can I feel the pain. I just turned 50 this year and I am exeperiencing more joint pain, feet, hips. Struggling,,takes the joy out of exercising, but I know I need to. Maybe this would help me with the overall aches and pains.
Kaye says:
Anytime I’m tired my right hip joint aches. Occasionaly a spot under the bottom of my left rib also aches. Is that enough aches to qualify? 🙂
Janet Sullivan says:
Well what doesn’t hurt these days, but I have to say neck, hips and feet. I work full time in a job where I walk a lot and so I’m on my feet-my whole body seems like one big muscle spasm.

I have pain in my left hip and the lower left side of my back. I also have creaky knees. My neck and shoulders are also very tense.

Susan Palumbo says:
I have bursitis in my hip, tendonitis and golfer’s elbow, and arthritis. I believe that this is due to 31 years of hairdressing. I would love to find something that would help me enjoy my career without pain.
Deborah says:
I have severe scoliosis and as I have gotten older I have had more aches and pains. Presently, a muscle in my left lower back has been giving me a lot of pain.
liliMarlene says:
I run and blew out my ankle 6 years ago–tripped over an unleashed dog in the park. As a result I have to pay special attention to body mechanics, if I compensate for my ankle, then my knee hurts. When I compensate for my
knee pain then my hips hurt, which leads to back pain–
very vicious cycle. Yoga helps sometimes, as well as
Feldenkrais. I’m more than willing to try non-medical
alternative therapies.
Mary Dudley says:
My knees, and back
Stephanie says:
I have been having frequent back spasms.
Becky Beer says:

Pains in low back, hips and knees.

Edie says:
I have had a rare cancer for the past six years. Formerly, I was very limber and active. Because of my illness,I have become extremely sedentary and have gained 30 pounds. In beginning an exercise program, I realized that what Yamuna said is exactly what I have experienced. My knees and back ache due to the added weight, and I feel soreness everywhere. Even if I am not chosen to win the kit, I certainly will research it. The brilliant simplicity of the concept lends itself to the cure for achiness.

Ida says:
wow, I do yoga, but this looks much more interesting. I hope I will win!
Lynn says:
Back in January, I was sitting on the sofa putting a sock on my right foot. I felt a “pulling” in my left leg and since then, I have had what feels like “shortening” down the left hip, around the hip/leg joing and sometimes down the left thigh. Overall, the primary aches are joint stiffness. Once I get up from sitting or lying on the sofa, everything has to “unstiffen”. Very Frustrating!!
Cindi Decker says:
My neck and shoulder always bother me. Yoga helps some, but I’d like to try this.
Donna says:
I am a 58 yr old woman with liver disease. My physican strongly suggested I change my life style beginning with exercise..only I really don’t know where to begin. Your program sounds like a good starting point. I would love to give it a try.
Thanks.
Cindy Boyd says:
I have arthritis and degenerative disks in my spine. I had surgery in 2005 to remove 2 disks and replace them with bone and a titanium plate with 6 screws. I still have problems with pain and tightness in my neck and shoulders especially.
Also, my feet ache and I notice it most when I lay down in bed at night.
I would love to learn more about this technique which sounds so promising for us older ladies!
victoria says:
My hips (not both at the same time) get stiff if I do not stretch or have been sitting/riding in a car too long and my knees. I am a walker so I change up my walking sneakers constantly. I have 4-5 pairs I use. I also do a lot of standing as well.
This technique looks very relaxing and with the Pain in the butt pause I am going through with this I could get a good night’s sleep as well!
Karalee says:
I injured my shoulders working as a seamstress in a sewing plant. I now need to be very careful what I do and how I use them. I thought yogi would help but it made it worse. I would like to do something that would keep my limber.
Sierra Delta says:
The most frustrating thing for me is that I can’t get up from a squat unless I put my hands on the floor next to me and push myself up from there! I think I look exactly like I remember my toddlers when they were learning to walk…
Pam Hatfield says:
Unfortunately, I have several painful areas. Knees, lower back and most recently, hands especially the thumb areas which have been diagnosed with arthritis just last month. I’m only 56 and have done way too much of the aerobic thing in my day. However, I live to stay in shape!
Cheryl Evans says:
Having spent over 17 years as an aerobics instructor, those classes of intense movement are catching up to my body. I would love to try this as my areas of concern seem to be my neck and shoulders. Drawing close to 60 makes the idea of this program inviting.
Cheryl Evans says:
Having spent 17 years as an aerobics instructor, those classes are catching up to my joints. I would love to try this type of exercise. My neck and shoulders seem to be the areas of contention as I draw close to age 60.
Marygrace says:
Lately? How about for a few years now? My left hip, knees and neck. Chiropractic help can be so jolting! YAMUNA® Body Rolling Gold Beginner Kit sounds like the answer for me!
Janet says:
I have been a firm believer in massage therapy for 40 years now, but now that 60 is in sight, more is definitely needed. My knees work fine with my “office heels” (1-1/2 inches or so), but not in flats. Walked around down town Seattle in my flats for a couple of hours with my sis and it took 4 days for the pain to lessen! And, of course(!), the sciatica of my teenage years has raised its UGLY head. Will the Hands-On Therapeutics really make a difference? This beginner’s kit would certainly be worth a try.
fhoagland says:
I have chronic back pain and had to give up my aerobic exercise program and walk instead. I’ve been looking for something that would give me more flexibility as I have osteoarthritis too. I’d love this.
coffysgirl says:
More times than not I wake up feeling stiff and tight. If this will help I would LOVE to give it a try.
sandy haber says:
I’ve had neck and back problems for many years, and am scheduled for a second knee surgery next week. My job requires a lot of sitting in front of the computer, and I could sure use some help working out the kinks w/o having to visit a chiropractor each time!
Jana Hayes says:
I just started a Body Fit program and am so sore. I would love to see what YAMUNA® Body Rolling can do for me. Please let me try it.
Sally Alexander says:
This year I have developed pain in my left hip. I am trying to find natural ways to address the pain through movement and exercise, hoping to avoid steroid injections and surgery. Could this be the answer? I would LOVE to give it a try!
Robin Stanfield says:
My back and neck have been bothering because my business partner and I did a lot of trunk shows in the beginning of our business and she had just had surgery on her elbow and was unable to help life the tubs of shoes we had to take to each show so the job fell on me to get them from the car to the show and back and unfortunately, my back and neck are the two places that have suffered the most. I also agree that the high impact exercise is not only exhausting, but way too much pounding on my old joints. I would definitely love to try something that could give me the exercise I need without feeling like I have been run over by a train!! Thanks
Cindy says:
My back and neck can get sore.
Debbi says:
I injured my knee, had surgery, and am now in more pain than I was before the surgery. I also have back and neck problems. I guess I am a big mess of aches and pains!

I have been having lower back pain and neck pain lately. I would love to try this so I hope I win it.
Carol says:
I have neck and upper back problems. I get migraines and when that happens the muscles in my neck and shoulder area get stiff and tighten up causing pain. I tore my ACL in my knee and had to have surgery for it 9 months ago. I do yoga & pilates that helps but it is still stiff and maybe Body Rolling might help.

I have chronic lower back pain, and sciatica. I also have a frozen shoulder and rotater, which is getting alot better. I have been walking with the aid of a cane for the past two years. I would love to get rid of my cane permently. I need to drop 20lbs to stop my pain, and go back to my very active lifestyle I had before. So, this might be the start.

Terri says:
for others wondering…I have chronic back pain after an assault during a robbery a few years ago. The broken bones healed but the soft tissue damage just won’t be “fixed”….BUT I do use a roller..unfortunately it’s LARGE so not as convenient as this..BUT it DOES WORK when all else fails. I highly recommend if you don’t win this product and have chronic pain, buy it! It’s worth it. When all else fails (ice, medication, which I have a drawer full of, heat, etc) I get that roller out and BAM it’s a miracle Why don’t I take it out first you ask? Cause it never seems like it can work. The pain is so bad that I just don’t think it’s going to help but it almost always does! And mine is LARGE…maybe 3′ long..and very hard..so I can’t travel with it, etc. but I do say if you have pain issues, it’s worth a try! Good luck!
Sherry says:
Neck, shoulders and lower back. Neck issues are causing headaches. Need to find something that works !

I had knee surgery 22 years ago and my knee now is constantly going out of joint which is very painful. I think that if I had better alignment and strengthened the muscles around my knee it would help. Would you system help? I’d love to try!
AnnaLeaf says:
My right knee & ankle, plus my lower back snaps & cracks whenever I stand up.

Chronic hip pain and leg pains. I hope this could help!
Amber says:
Well where do I begin….the upper middle of my back including just under the shoulder blades due to leaning over a grocery checkstand for 34 years. No one seems to know how to help this except pain pills which I will not do. Also knees, hips and shoulders which makes sleep difficult. At 55 the thought of losing quality of life in regards to mobility is not something I can imagine, life is just too lovely to not be able to prance and twirl through it. Thanks for this chance.
Patti says:

Linda says:
My neck, because I have a fusion. And my right knee.
Chris M. says:
My body is tight and achey – from my neck to my hip – and it has become more noticeable since the advent of the cooler weather here in the northeast. A deep tissue massage usually helps, but having Yamuna’s body rolling balls would certainly help more because I could pamper myself with a deep tissue massage on demand!
Pamela Hansen says:
my knees and lower back have been the worse of my aches and pains lately
campton says:
My aches and pains seem to be in my hip and lower back area. This sounds like something to try!
Linda says:
I have recently been going through physical therapy for my left shoulder (rotator cuff), injured during yoga classes where – my PT tells me – I was instructed incorrectly on how to do certain arm movements. I’ve also had knee problems since high school, and hip difficulties after a fall down a small flight of stairs 6 years ago. (Guess I’m what you’d consider a wreck!) Anyway, I’d love to try something that will get me back to practice the yoga I love (in a correct way) and get rid of the pain I experience daily. Please pick me to test this system. And, thanks!

What hasn’t? My feet and hips; the neck is a big issue. This looks fascinating.

This looks SO interesting!

Stiffness in my knees, hips and spine remind me I’m aging and is aggravated by muscle loss due to recent and prolonged inactivity. At this point it’s hard to know what and how much to do to work toward fitness. I refuse to grow older with unnecessary pain!

What doesn’t ache….the most noticable area is my feet. Between the weight, the poor support, etc. it’s really a struggle walking at first. Once I’m on them they conform but I would love to try and see if this works.

Upper back up to neck pain.
Paula Williams says:
From my shoulders down my back to my hips, on any given day one or more areas feel pain or discomfort. I am exercising/streching but it doesn’t seem to relieve the discomfort.

Cmason says:
Neck and shoulders add to my aches, would be nice the eliminate it!
Stephanie says:
Knees
Ann Russell says:

Bettina says:
What DOESN’T hurt? Years of auto-immune disease, several broken bones and bad dietary choices have left me feeling way older than my age.
hapeemom says:
As a massage therapist, I am very good at focusing on issues my clients are having. Sometimes my own body flares up with it’s own aches and pains. Body rolling would be great to experience and then I could educate my clients!!!

I could really use this. My neck and right arm have hurt for a while!
Cynthia says:
Hips, back, neck wrists & thumbs-well actually everything seems to be falling apart. Sure could use some help.

Kathy Castillo says:
My aches are held up in my shoulders, especially my left shoulder. My left knee “pops” with audible tones from time to time. I wonder if this might also help carpal tunnel, or even my TMJ? I’d love to test and report.

Joan says:
lower back and neck….and feet
MARY K says:
Hah, this is funny as I woke up with more pain than usual today. I’ve been troubled by sciatica for the last 6 months. Last night I had trouble sleeping because my hips and shoulder were hurting and today my shoulder is still painful. I’ve been doing back exercises but would love to find something that really works and is for the whole body.
d.wales says:
Neck and shoulder. 10 hours a day working on a computer is literally a pain in the neck, often progressing to a migraine. I’ve tried chiropractic and accupuncture treatments and they’ve helped, but not solved the problem. I’d love to try this!

This is so natural. My dog actually rolls around on his toy ball when he needs a massage. I’ve been SUFFERING from a herniated disc for this past year. Nothing else has helped. I NEED this!
Flo Zoltanetzky says:
I regularly go to the gym and take various classes. Last week, they introduced a Burn Class and after that class, my knees ached for a week.

Luckily, my knees are getting better but I can feel the stiffness in my body which wasn’t there before.

80 years ago…when my Grandmother would put on a few extra pounds, she would get down on the floor and ROLL. She was 4’10” and I dont think ever weighed over 100 lbs . Guess way back then she knew something !! I would love to follow in her footsteps !!
Tfabglam5 says:
This looks like the perfect exercise regime that is low impact, yet provides great results. Yamuna has such long, lean and strong looking muscles resembling someone who does Pilates and/or yoga regularly. Would love to try this program!
