How Lilly Beat Chronic Pain with Liposomal Curcumin

Born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, our client Lilly first discovered her passion for health and fitness through dance, which she pursued from the age of five all the way through college. “Dance was my first love,” she shares, “and it naturally transitioned into fitness.”

Now 59, Lilly resides in Raleigh, North Carolina, where she’s built an impressive career as a personal trainer and group fitness professional. With over 35 years of experience - and 16 years as the owner of her own fitness studio - Lilly has dedicated her life to helping clients feel their best, both inside and out. “My favorite part of being a trainer is watching people realize they’re stronger than they thought. Helping them reach their goals is the best feeling ever.”

A Career Pivot Led to Chronic Pain

Lilly’s active lifestyle had always kept her injury-free because she was so in tune with her body. But when the pandemic forced her to pivot to online training, it was just too much for her body to take every day and her right hip started to give her issues. “I was teaching and training online for eight hours a day,” Lilly recalls. “It led to a chronic overuse injury that made even simple movements painful.”

Despite trying everything from physical therapy to fascia work, Lilly felt stuck - until she came across the Terra Health Essentials' supplements that targeted the issues she was having. 

Finding Relief with Liposomal Curcumin

Lilly’s search for a natural solution wasn’t random and she started with turmeric. “I’d heard so many success stories from my clients,” she explains. “When I researched, the liposomal delivery system sold me. I’ve got a science background, so bioavailability is a must.” After just two weeks of taking our Liposomal Curcumin, Lilly noticed a difference as her hip pain improved. She wasn’t alone either, as many of her clients began taking the supplements and experienced similar results.

Today, Lilly incorporates Liposomal Curcumin and other Terra Health supplements into her morning routine, often taking them with coffee or water before heading to the gym. “Adding Liposomal Curcumin, Glutathione, Vitamin D3 with K2, and Vitamin B12 made all the difference,” she says. “I believe they reduced the overall inflammation in my body. Honestly, I’m never going back!” “The liquid format makes it so easy,” she shares. “I prefer it to pills, and it’s made a noticeable difference in my mobility and overall inflammation.”

Advice from a Professional

Lilly is quick to recommend Liposomal Curcumin to anyone dealing with joint pain or inflammation. “Reducing inflammation - even low-grade - is key,” she says. “When your joints feel better, you move better, and when you move better, you stay active.” In addition she believes that adding the other Liposomals to her routine really took her results to the next level.

We did speak with Lilly before the holidays so we asked for some tips on staying healthy over the festive period. However her advice really applies all year around so it’s worth mentioning here! Lilly shares that, coming from a large Greek family who love to enjoy their food together, she’s all about balance and planning. “It’s okay to indulge, but have a plan going in,” Lilly advises. “And don’t stress over a few treats - it’s about what you do consistently that matters.”

The Next Chapter

With her chronic hip pain under control, Lilly is back to doing what she loves most: helping her clients live their healthiest lives. Her latest goal? Trying our NAD+ supplement. “I can’t wait to see the results,” she tells us with excitement. And we’re excited too!
