Jessica D—
“I cannot recommend her enough— my only regret is that I did not try her sooner!”
Ann K.
“Michelle was able to identify a couple of problems right...from...the….get…go. It was so validating to have someone BELIEVE my story, and identify issues I could work on to improve my condition.
I started seeing her after having two back-to-back pregnancies that left me with pretty notable diastasis (abdominal separation) and an umbilical hernia. I was told by my doctor that I may need surgery. I am thrilled to say that my diastasis has improved significantly and I can no longer feel evidence of a hernia. I can’t recommend Michelle enough!”
