“Leila is a godsend and is a body genius. This woman has transformed my body, my posture, my everyday habits, and my mental health in ways that I am forever grateful. I did two ten series with her over the las 7 years and have gone in for tune ups during that time as well. Did I mention she is a Pilates master as well? I highly recommend her to anyone who understands the connection between the body and the mind and is ready to take a leap in the direction of healing and evolving. Not only does chronic pain disappear, but so do negative thought patterns and habits. Weird that all could be related? I have sent many people her way… young and old with jaw, back, sciatic, foot, neck and esteem issues. All of those people continue to work with her and have sent me many heartfelt thank you’s for sending them her way. I highly highly recommend her to those looking for a miracle because she is one. Happy days ahead to you. And thank you Leila!!!!”
“I came to see Leila 5+ yrs ago for SI. I was in terrible back pain, hardly able to stand up straight. I was sick of going to chiropractors for weeks at a time and then finding myself in the same situation again a few weeks later. I needed help and needed something that would work!!
Leila did an extensive exam, paying attention to small rotations in my spine/body and then got to work, on her SI magic! She told me it wouldn’t be a quick fix and would take a few sessions to feel better, and I was willing to have the patience for something that would have lasting results. True to her word, after a few sessions I felt like a different person! I Completed the 10 session series and I have never felt better in my life!!! I wondered why I hadn’t known about this sooner! It is truly an unbelievable experience, something everyone can benefit from whether you are someone dealing with the regular stresses of every day life or someone with chronic pain.
Leila is the sweetest most caring person and has extensive knowledge of the human anatomy and I believe she is one of the best in the field. And she is so reasonable! I couldn’t believe how much other people charge for this kind of work but not nearly the same quality!!
Since then, I have been seeing Leila mostly for Pilates. She is the best and most knowledgeable Pilates instructor as well! She keeps me in good shape and is careful to have me doing only the excersizes that are good for my body. I honestly don’t know what I would do without her. If you are in pain or just want to feel your best, or if you want to get in a good Pilates workout, go see Leila!!”
“I have had 4 hip surgeries in the past 20 years, with the last one (5 years ago) causing me severe nerve pain in my left hip, as well many other aches and pains throughout my body. After visiting a pain doctor for many months, I realized I didn’t want to be doped up on meds my whole life and wanted to fix the underlying problem. I regularly visit a chiropractor, masseuse, and acupuncturist, all which help with short term pain relief, but no one until Leila was able to help fix the underlying issues causing the pain. After doing a 10 series with Leila, I feel the best I’ve felt in years. She was able to unwind many years of imbalance in my body. I am grateful for everything she has taught me about the interconnections in my body, and now I am more aware of every movement I make working out or in everyday life. If you are looking for a loving, caring, and overall wonderful person to help with your long-term well-being and not just a short term fix, Leila is the best!! I can’t say enough about her!”
“My sessions with Leila have helped me re-learn things that I had forgotten along the way. She has taught me to leverage my body instead of letting gravity weigh on me at work, and in everyday life. My back pain has decreased tremedously since attending her sessions. I highly recommend.”
“I have been working with Leila on both Pilates–she is a terrific and patient instructor–and structural integration for over five years and wouldn’t give it up for anything. The original 10-session SI series covers the entire body and was an eye opener for me. I came out of it with a much better sense of the strengths and weaknesses of my body and with a greater sense of well-being. I’d recommend Leila to everyone!”
“I have been through the SI 10-session protocol to address foot and back problems and it was an enlightening experience. Not only did my ailments get alleviated, but I also learned a lot about how this “fascia” thing works! Leila is a wealth of knowledge about the body and it’s proper alignment. My 12 year old daughter also went through the SI sessions for onset scoliosis and has been doing Pilates since as therapy. It has been working great and my daughter really enjoys the Pilates sessions. She’s now 14 and is still going twice a week. We plan to continue until she leaves for college! Can’t say enough great things about Leila, her in depth knowledge of every nook and cranny of the body and her 6th sense instincts. A truly amazing healer.“
“If you are having back pain or sciatica, do yourself a favor and look into structural integration, core, and fascia before going the surgery or epidural route. Leila is fantastic, particularly if you are an older athlete/cyclist with a healthy dose of old-age denial and want to keep it that way!
Starting about 6 months ago I started having severe sciatica and low back pain. Traditional doctors were leading me toward epidural steroid injections for pain or, eventually, back surgery. Yet after research, surgery outcomes for back pain are not that great, and common sense kicked in, and I was led to Leila for what is essentially deep DEEP tissue massage and manipulation, and coaching in body dynamics, the body’s fascia, and being aware of poor posture habits that crept in over many years of 10+ hour days at a computer. After doing the “10-series” and getting back to basics with swimming and core (no way around it – PLANKS!), I am doing a lot better, and have even regained an inch in height. I still have more core to work on but I am back to doing the athletic things I enjoy without pain, my body is much more “itself” and much stronger than if I had gone the surgery route. I will be returning to Leila in a few months for a tune-up and definitely feel this was the right route to go.”
“Leila has been treating me on a regular basis for the last 2 years. She knows the human body extremely well and does whatever it takes to help you get better. I broke my collarbone recently and I will need her help to get well again. Do not hesitate to see her if you need her help.“
