Joyful Movement

Until I met Laura, I was looking for a quick fix or a simple solution to my back troubles. After many months of suffering, and not finding any real support at Kaiser, I was referred to Laura by a friend. She helped me understand the mechanics of my problem, and got me started with doing exercises to strengthen the underlying weakness in my core. It's been a long, slow road but I am on my way to getting stronger and back to the things I did before my injury. Laura was the first stop on my true healing journey- she does great work, especially for people who are dealing with acute back injuries.

I love how Laura has taught me how I can heal my back permanently with a series of changes in my life. I now wake up and I’m able to do a few simple stretches every day and I’m pain free. It has taken some time to retrain by body but it’s 100% worth it. I’m now back hiking Mt Tam, Skiing and playing tennis pain free and we did it without surgery, painkillers or even Motrin.

I’m forever grateful how Laura has help me get back to the active lifestyle I have been use to for so many years.

I have tried yoga over the years, but it never resonated with me. After working with Laura once a week for a year I've seen a huge difference. My back issues are gone and I feel stronger all over. I really like Laura's style, she comes at Pilates from an athlete's perspective with a strong healing component

After 20 years of back pain, I have finally felt an incredible shift as a direct result of the careful and experienced instruction from Laura.
I learned pretty fast Laura is more than a Pilates teacher. She understands the complexities and subtleties of my body. Laura knew just by looking at my posture for the first time what I needed, and she was right. Her tailored program combined with a recommendation to work with a local Osteopath has, in a matter of months, set me well on the way to being back to full health and capability.
​This treatment is truly created for a long term healing results."

I have been working with Laura for several months now, and I'm grateful for her knowledge and straightforward manner. I came to her for hand and wrist pain from repetitive strain on my hands while working on the computer. From what I understand, correction of these kinds of problems takes a long term approach. Laura has motivated me to make the changes needed to start the healing process on my over-worked hands. She has been inquisitive to my reactions to the work we do together, and responsive to my feedback on what is helping and what is not. Her knowledge of the healing arts is comprehensive and has made many suggestions for alternative treatments to help enhance the work we do together. My hand and wrist issues appear to be getting better slowly, and I also have much improved flexibility and balance overall. I'm looking forward to continuing my work with her.
