Mar 22nd 2023I was referred here by my OB for pelvic/girdle pain, so I had no idea what the place would be like once I arrived. Had all my sessions with Morgan who is absolutely amazing! Staff is polite, friendly and the facility is clean, which is a plus for me. The difference in pain level is night and day. I could barely walk when I had my first session, but now I can do most of my activities pain-free.
