Let me take a guess at YOU...

1. You’re feeling stuck. You’re deciding if the latest fitness craze could be the solution for you.

2. All you know is that you have spent time & energy trying to feel better in your body but have hit a wall.

3. Your body is still in chronic pain. 

   Pain that keeps you from being able to sit for long periods of time and focusing on your work. Pain that nags at you during runs but brush off as just being part of the sport. Pain that hangs around after a hike or active social outing with friends. Pain that keeps you up at night because you can’t get comfortable or sleep on that side for too long, waking you up when you turn over because you got caught in the sheets wrong.

4. You’re wondering if this is your new normal. You’re feeling defeated because working out is supposed to make you feel better and you’re putting in effort but aren’t seeing progress.

For those of you struggling through an injury, I see you. For those of you wanting to move without pain, I hear you. For those of you having feelings of self doubt creep into your mind of “will I ever again”, I get it.

I see you because I was you. I am here to tell you it is possible. Let me show you the way.

What makes working with Laura Melgar different?

I’ve worked in the medical field and have navigated the medical system as a patient. I’ve experienced significant injuries and pain, some of which even required surgery. I’ve felt the despair and heavy emotions that accompany chronic pain. I’ve experienced the ripple effect that pain has on the day to day routine of life. I’ve spent countless hours over the course of years seeking solutions only to be told there wasn’t one and to give up living an active life. I’ve lived limited, knowing in my gut that there had to be a better option available. I wasn’t ready to call it quits, so I created my own answer.
