We’ve helped thousands of elite and everyday fitness athletes in Columbus, Ohio just like you get out of pain, overcome injury, increase mobility, and exercise during and after pregnancy!

Here are some of their success stories…

“When I started here in October last year, I couldn't lift my hand above my head. [To] put a shirt on the morning, I had to take my other arm and push my hand up to get it through a shirt sleeve. And she's got me back to the point now where I’m essentially full go at the gym. So, I can do my toes to bar, pull ups, butterflies, snatching, cleans, jerks…”

“I started seeing Missy because I was pregnant with my third child and I had two C-sections. I did not recover very well from the second C-section. Because of that, I had some learned behaviors that I needed to unlearn with pelvic floor health. [Missy] makes you feel comfortable and makes you realize that the body is all connected, and we can figure out the solution to that pain or that annoyance that you might be dealing with.”

“I was competitive athlete and had injuries from a couple decades ago. Then, I also had a bad skiing accident where I had to have a couple of surgeries after a broken leg. Within a few minutes of meeting Mandi, I felt very comfortable with her, and she was able to not only pinpoint some of my issues that I've been having, but also what was causing them”

“I worked with [Caitlin]. I had some shoulder pain right before The Open. So, obviously, I wanted to nip that in the bud before quarter quarterfinals… I was able to heal pretty well and just feel more natural in the moments… I think I was in the top like 800 or 900 in the handstand push up workout.”
