"Thank you for treating my hip injury and pelvic floor issues. I am now a new person because of your help. When I last injured my hip and tried PT, I was treated for several months with none of the results you helped me achieve in a fraction of that amount of time. I really enjoyed your personal and customized approach and the fact that you treated other issues that were plaguing me to help me improve my movement and function. You are absolutely in the right profession by making my health your priority."
