MEDICAL COORDINATION With your permission, we’ll connect with your healthcare providers to ensure alignment with your treatment plan.
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT Based on your assessment and medical input, we create a tailored movement program that addresses your specific needs.
SESSION OPTIONS Choose between private sessions (recommended for complex conditions) or semi-private sessions (for those further along in recovery who benefit from small group dynamics).
