"Melanie made me believe in Physical Therapy again."
- Roxanne G.
At my 6 month pregnancy point, I was having my second round of sciatica. I walked into Melanie’s office with 2 canes and walked out without ANY. Not only did she listen intently to my situation, she also helped with my pelvic floor needs for during and post pregnancy. I highly recommend her; I chose her over my ineffective Kaiser PT experience.

I have been dealing with back pain and diastasis recti that I never dealt with after having my kids. After my first meeting with Melanie I could already feel ab muscles engaging that I hadn’t been able to in years! I live in NorCal so we have been meeting over the internet, but every meeting we have is informative and I get stronger each time. The gap in my abs is closing and just about gone and my core feels like it’s supporting me now. Before I would get injured so easily because my back muscles were taking the brunt of everything. Working out now feels so much better and my random back pain is no more. I am so grateful for Melanie and her extensive knowledge about not only the body but diet and healthy living in general.

I went to Melanie’s office for shoulder pain. Her office is so clean and has a comfortable atmosphere. She was very friendly and knowledgeable in treating my pain. Feeling better and back to regular activities thanks to Melanie. Please see her if you are in pain and need a PT!

I have had plantar fasciitis for 2.5 years now. I have tried shoe inserts, massages, ice, been to physical therapy, changed my shoe wardrobe…all of these helped but the pain/discomfort always came back. In came Melanie…she showed me exercises to do, showed me how to tape my heel, but most importantly, she corrected my stance. I no longer have to tape it. It’s now been over a month since my heel has hurt even once! I can’t believe it! I correct my stance all the time now and it’s helped immensely. It’s given me hope to continue exercising like I did before I injured my heel. Can’t thank her enough!

Melanie helped me with pelvic floor issues as well as chest pain I was having. What I loved most about working with her is that she is patient, calming and intentional. You don’t feel rushed or not cared for. She has a super sweet spirit to her that allows you to relax and take in all that she is doing. I told my husband I would feel like I just went to the spa after an appt with her because she has this ability to carry so much peace! Even in the way she treats you- her hand would touch my head to check for balance and I’d feel like I just got a massage! I also appreciated her natural and holistic approach to how she treats! That’s a game changer for me! I highly suggest Melanie for any body pain and pelvic floor issues.

Melanie is great! She provided comprehensive care for my back pain and sent me home with not only more mobility after my first visit, but additional exercises and stretches to help keep me healthy beyond my appointment.

With Melanie, I gained more strength, knowledge, and confidence than I ever did through my 6 month journey post-op with someone else.

Things feel really good. NO stomach issues. The burning in my back is gone. It is actually the first time in years that my rib doesn’t feel as stuck.

In just our first treatment Melanie was able to reduce my neck pain by working on my tail bone, she was able to reduce the fascial tension, and I was able to turn my neck side to side more than I can ever remember.

Melanie is very knowledgeable in her craft. I was in a lot of pain and had tingling all the way down one arm. She educated me about my condition while working on me at each of our sessions. I have specific exercises that help me strengthen and stay in a healthy place. Her philosophy and name say it all: “Remedy”.

I highly recommend Melanie to anyone who wants to improve their strength and mobility.

What sets Melanie apart from other PTs is that she takes a holistic and personable approach in treating her patients. Melanie solely works one on one with her patients allowing for a more personable and in depth session. Melanie is extremely knowledgeable not only in physical therapy but in full body wellness.

Melanie is simply wonderful. She equipped me with the exercises and knowledge that I will need to help gain my strength back post surgery. She takes her time in listening to how you are feeling and what your issues are, she makes sure you understand how what she does throughout the session will help you, and that you are doing it correctly to ensure positive results.

I was able to hang through a long day of driving to LA and sitting through an evening event. No way I could have done that without Melanie’s help.

Before starting to work with Melanie, I had been struggling with nagging lower back pain. I’ve had 4 sessions with her so far and have not had any pain in quite a while now. I’ve really loved working with Melanie and love her holistic approach and desire to find the root of the problem, not just fix/treat a symptom. I’ve been working with her through video calls and it has worked really well! I would highly recommend working with her either in person or via video call.
