I have spinal stenosis. I’ve been to half a dozen top doctors three different chiropractors. No one can help me I go and see Paula and the first visit. I’m 40% better figure that one out. She is absolutely amazing. I just had my second visit and I’m sore because of her super cool machinery which I’ve never seen in my life. She’s super intuitive and wise. I can’t wait for the next couple of weeks. I’ve been walking with a gimp for six years and now I’m walking almost completely normal. Do not pass this up.

A few years ago, I was referred to Paula, and I must say, my life has been transformed for the better! For years, I struggled with my lower back "popping out" on a monthly basis. I am so grateful to Paula! She took the time to explain why this was happening and developed a personalized plan for me. Together, we focused on strengthening my core, learning how to move my body correctly, and achieving a sense of stability and control. Now, I can move comfortably and confidently without any fear. I’m thrilled to report that my back has remained stable for several months, whereas it used to dislocate every month. At 59, I have never felt so strong, agile, and secure. If you're seeking a positive change in your life, don’t hesitate to schedule your first appointment. You will be forever thankful, just as I am! 🩷🙏🏼

Paula has a natural authenticity to help her clients learn how to move their body more effectively in a way it was intended to move. She does great work and I recommend her services.

She is the best of the best! Went in for spine and hip issues. She helped treat my posture from head to toe. I can’t recommend her enough. She really cares and is an absolute pleasure to work with.

What a tremendous difference in my body since I have been training with Paula. After only two sessions with her my lower backpain which has plagued me for countless years is completely gone. Paula listens, is supportive, and she is incredibly welll trained and informed . I feel for the first time in years that I am moving in the right direction!

Wish I could give more than 5 stars. I don’t even know how to put in words how grateful I am for Paula. Our family met Paula almost a year ago from a caregiver who knew Paula well. My mother had undergone 4 brain surgeries which caused her to be bed bound for over 8 months losing complete muscle mass and ability to walk. Paula met my mother, did a thorough evaluation and both agreed this was something they wanted to tackle together. I’m amazed as well as other family and friends to see my mother progress as well as she has with paula. my mother went from no movement to being able to walk with walker within 5 months. Paula was able to put together a program for my mother and now she’s regained muscle mass and strength in both sides of her body. Her left side was tremendously comprised as well as her cerebellum during surgeries. Paula has assisted my mother with building strength on her left side and balance. it’s truly amazing to see how far my mom has come. When so many had given up, paula was there to reassure us that she deeply cares and willing to help. People are just amazed on how my mother rapidly responded to Paula’s program. Paula is dedicated, caring, deeply invested in her clients and she’s just a huge blessing. Truly one of a kind. Wish the world had more people like her, truly a remarkable human. thank you paula for believing in my mom and our family. we believe in you and all you do. Thank you. ♥️

I cannot recommend Paula enough. I have tried so many things to get out of pain including rolfing, acupuncture, physical therapy, massage therapy and nothing really worked.

Paula is very good at what she does and she REALLY cares about hitting your goals. I have been working with her for 2 months so far and I am out pain and my core feels so much stronger. Her knowledge and passion for the work she does is refreshing and the results are amazing.

Paula has an exceptional ability both to tune in to where your body is in the moment and to keep her eye on the way it evolves over time. It’s a pleasure and an inspiration to work with her.
Our sessions together over the past year have effectively banished longstanding hip and back issues that I thought were intransigent. Her understanding of anatomy and, especially, of scoliosis has made it possible for us to address root causes and develop the muscles to mitigate their effects.
It’s wonderful to know that, in the right hands and with the willingness to work it through, we don’t necessarily have to accept what might otherwise seem the inescapable effects of aging. Karen M

Paula is an incredible human, on a personal and professional level. She makes one feel so at home in her space, and her attention to detail is apparent in every exercise. I have been blown away at how much my body composition has changed in such a short amount of time. I have no pain, I'm stronger, more flexible, and the alignment of my spine has improved. My experience in her practice has been beyond my wildest dreams. The only way to become a believer is to try it. You won't regret working with Paula.

Paula is the most wonderful professional. She is capable of remembering details and coming up with customized exercises. I simply wouldn't trade her for no one else in the world

Paula is the consummate professional, bringing her expertise, assessment skills and empathy to every encounter. While I sought out her services as a gyrotonics teacher, her understanding of anatomy and movement deepened the quality of the work I have experienced with other teachers. Beyond learning a sequence of exercises, Paula's attention to alignment and spinal health made the work compelling and helped me reach beyond my personal goals. She always began with my state of my body/mind and any limitations I may have been experiencing; varying the agenda to meet my specific needs and helping to alleviate any tightness or tension that was posing a challenge to the work. Paula does her work in a peaceful, sunny setting and she brings her kindness and grace to every encounter.

I suffered a brain injury as a child. As a result I have worked with countless physical therapists and trainers in my 44 year long journey to recovery. I serve as a volunteer mentor and facilitator in the brain injury support group in a local hospital.
What I have told many friends and people I work with through the hospital is that I have never worked with anyone better than Paula. Especially for people with unique challenges, some physical therapists can correctly diagnose the source of an problem, fewer still can actually implement a plan to fix the problem. I have found that even the best "Personal Trainers" are great if you want to get buff, but for fixing a physical problem, they fall short. Paula's approach has been more effective for me than any other I have experienced. The progress that I have made and continue to make has been amazing. I believe the reason she is so good at what she does is the mixture of her personality, background and training. She was a professional dancer, has a graduate degree in movement therapy and holds multiple certifications in Pilates and Gyrotonics. She is also continually educating herself.
This is not woo-woo new age healing. It is a very smart approach to an individuals needs based on that person's situation. It is hard work. You don't see results immediately, but they will come if you commit.

Paula is a highly caring person who takes personal pride in creating a custom exercise program for each client. She assesses the strength and weaknesses of our body first. She takes the time to understand personal goals and concerns. She comes with extensive training in her field not only in the US but in Brazil and in Europe. She has also headed exercise at world renowned wellness resort Rancho La Puerta. She is outstandingly qualified in what she does.
