Here’s what some of her patients have to say about their treatments and care with Terra Gold, L.Ac.:

“I came to Terra seeking to increase my flexibility and get help with a lower back problem. Through a custom designed program of Yoga and Massage, we have eliminated my back pain and are working to strengthen the muscles that keep these problems from reoccurring. We have also added a program of nutritional supplements that help eliminate the stresses and tensions that have prevented me from feeling my best. Through Terra’s teaching, I have developed a deeper understanding of how my body functions and am using that knowledge to keep it running at the peak of its ability.”
- Tom Wilson, 58 Year Old Male, Real Estate Developer

“Terra Gold is intuitive and experienced. She is talented, well-trained, learned, enquiring and a highly skilled instructor of yoga and complementary medicine. She watches and learns; she knows what you need. Terra has tailored our workouts and uses nutritional stress analysis to assist me in my declining abilities and stamina. She also uses acupressure to help stimulate my failing nerves, muscles and energy. I consider her a blessing.”
- Claire Rogger, 82 Year Old Female, Retired Deputy to City Councilor

“Terra clearly cares deeply about the work she does, believes in it totally, yet never judges or prosthelytizes about how someone is living or what changes they should make. She respects the client and where he/she is at in their life and is able to easily facilitate whatever movement they seem to want at a particular time. Terra is at ease with people, listens attentively, creates a very warm and welcoming atmosphere and is clearly an expert at so many different aspects of the ‘wellness’ field.”
- Michael Weithorn, 54 Year Old Male, Writer/Director

“I met Terra over ten years ago doing Yoga at the Sports Club LA. I hired her for private sessions and renewed my membership at the gym, specifically for Terra’s classes there. It was clear from the start that Terra had a strong lineage to Yoga. She had extensive knowledge of the body and was respectful of my pace. I had undergone several surgeries and had to be mindful and her demeanor and graceful style was always encouraging, patient and caring. At that time I was embarking on a journey to get pregnant at the age of 39. We worked together and I believe her Yoga routines, healing hands, spirit and knowledge of fertility helped that happen.
- Corey Carr, 40 Year Old, Artist and Mother

“I have practiced yoga with Terra Gold for over a decade. She offers serenity, intelligence, and, oh yeah, sweat.”
- Steve Martin, 61 Year Old Male, Comedian/Writer

“I’ve enjoyed working with Terra for several years and can’t imagine anyone better than Terra Green Gold for Yoga instruction, Yoga Massage, Nutritional motivation and overall inspiration for healthy living. Working with Terra has been very helpful for me in learning to use Yoga to relieve stress and improve my physical flexibility.”
- Tom Shapiro, 56 Year Old Male, Businessman

“Terra Gold came into my life through the referral of a unique doorway, so I knew it would be more than just yoga I would get, though that was my request. I was in search of a yoga teacher that could adapt to my specific skillet and body type as I am an odd mix of man and giraffe. Much like many people these days, I try to keep my body in tune through a variety of practices, with yoga as a key base for all. Beyond anyone I have worked with, Terra has a true gift of intuition that is enriched by her ever-evolving commitment to enhance her knowledge base and practice. So aside from our core partnership of yoga, she has aided me with bodywork and a whole host of other practices that have helped me on my own path. The bottom line is that my body and I are better because of her and I value her heavily for that.”
