What Our Patients Say About Their Journey

Testimonial by Y.L. (mom of 2)

After having my second baby via C-section I searched for months to try to find help for my lower back pain and separated abdominal muscles. I finally came across Heather Jeffcoat via a mommy blog. I reached out to her via email and set my first appointment. My first appointment went amazing … she listened to what my symptoms, check my separation and explained to me in detail what the next steps would be. Not only did my abdominal separation go from 3 to about 1 -1/2 but...

Testimonial by R.M., Age 40

I had had painful sex for my entire life, and didn’t know that there was anything that could be done about it.

I finally...

I live almost completely pain free, and when I do have flare ups, I am able to treat them at home...
