What Our Patients Say About Their Journey

Testimonial by J.B.

My husband who is a physician was very supportive and agreed that a PT evaluation would be a great idea. So i made the appointment and was blown away by what I learned. I had no idea that pelvic floor muscles could...

I am SO HAPPY I found Heather's office! I was working...
