Bone & Muscle problems

I was told by a holistic healer that pituitary gland activation, yoga and chakra healing can invariably increase one’s height and age is no barrier. As far as I know, growth plates close very early (16-19) in girls. However, is this claim true even if not proven? Have there been such cases? My question is whether it is possible (not whether it commonly happens). Thank you.
