This week's weekly assignment with Ana was to practice self-love and boost self-worth. It took us to 5 Love languages, one was to Offer Acts of Service - Write a glowing recommendation for someone who deserves it. She deserves it!! Ana was put in my life over a year ago after my breast cancer diagnosis. It was caught early and removed, but I needed to learn how to heal myself and how to take care of my heart, body, and mind for the future. Fast forward a year I have achieved my personal goals and beyond. She is beyond a Physical Therapist, Coach, and Healer. I consider her a friend and one of the main tools in my toolbox. She changed my life, and my relationships with my family, friends, and strangers have changed because I have. Everything has so much more meaning and joy each day. She will teach you how to listen to your heart (intuition, gut instinct, etc.) and to trust it. I have learned how to embrace my female energy (I was raised to use mainly my male side) and to accept that life is a rollercoaster of feelings and how to deal with the ups and downs head-on. To feel is to live, good and bad. To know the bad times are just moments and they can pass like a cloud was invaluable. I could write for hours and not repeat myself on the benefits of seeing Ana. You will not regret the decision to have that initial free discovery session, you will never look back only forward to an amazing life. Good luck on your journey, I know if you are using Ana it will be an amazing one. Thank you Ana xxxx https://www.facebook.com/BeHealthyWithAna read more

I took the online "Boundaries 101" class and WOW! It exceeded my expectations for finding value and peace in my life. I took the class because it advertised to help "highly sensitive people" and since childhood I've been admonished for that. Well Ana helped me turn it into a superpower. What a different perspective! It's been over a month since I first started practicing the tools she gives and I'm very pleased. Ana is knowledgeable, personable and her personal insights are very helpful. I would highly recommend her and looking forward to working with her in the future. read more

Ana is an amazing therapist and coach. She listens to you and helps you discover what is best for your body instead of telling you what you should be doing. Everybody's body is different and it is such a relief to find a coach that is helping me discover what is best for me and my health. read more

I am so incredibly pleased with the progress I have made since beginning my work with Ana. She has an innate ability to zero in on emotional and physical obstacles to living the fullest life possible. The progress I have made in the last few months greatly surpasses the many years of work with various therapists. Recognizing the choices I have and creating healthy boundaries are two of the most significant changes that have resulted from working with Ana. She is a truly gifted woman/healer. read more

I am so far sailing through my hip replacement surgery recovery - all because of Ana. Not only did Ana help me create muscle strength and tone before surgery which I am using now to get around so much faster than I ever would've expected - but because she took the time and has the skills and an almost superhuman ability to communicate on such a deep body level - how each muscle needs to work and how I can sense it working and how I can invite each muscle to work correctly - I am able to be efficient in all my movements and completely without pain meds.This has just made such an amazing huge difference. I can't wait to be released to go back to Ana to keep me in great shape the whole rest of my life! Rori read more

Be Healthy - Physical Therapy Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

I don't go to doctors.... Ana is sooooo good, I mean I came to her after visiting a ucla doctor for hip and knee pain, he recommended me to visit a physical therapist since he could not help me. Ana has helped me with my pain and body awareness, how I sit and walk. She has given me exercises. She is a healer, knowledgeable, great techniques with her hands. She is very intuitive and feels , point and heal the pain. I have an inside joke with her , I call her a witch lol! Meaning she does magic with her healing hands. I highly recommend her to ANYONE with any pain to visit her and witness their body heal. She is conveniently located in Culver City, parking n the back. She has her office in a room behind a private gym. She is just soooooo lovely. read more

Today's session was incredible. Ana asked all the right questions to get to the root of my problem pretty quickly. She is very thorough and has strong yet soothing hands. She combines western and eastern philosophy and channels a very calm and soothing energy. She is specific about the diagnosis and tells you what her plan is to bring you back to health. Ana is very knowledgeable, intuitive, and gentle, all great traits for a physical therapist. I had a really painful muscle spasm and she gave me so much relief just after one visit. I highly recommend Ana's magic hands. read more

There are answers to the questions a suffering person asks repeatedly and Ana will help absolutely help you find them. She has been instrumental in my complete transformation from a very unhappy, depressed, and suffering (physically, emotionally, and mentally) individual into the beautiful and thriving butterfly I've become! I began working with her several years ago, in physical therapy. It was a painful process in which I relearned to walk and found I can do literally anything. Her firm yet gentle approach is magnificent as she pushes you to work through the pain and face it head on so that you can truly begin to believe happiness and a pain-free life are possible. After a year and a half of the physical therapy I also began working with Ana on life coaching, which I love! She will not do the work for you but she will help you develop the tools and discover the direction you choose for life. Ana is a beautiful and intelligent guide on the journey to freedom!!! read more

We had just one session but I could feel already her commitment to help you find your answers and feel better. I like her care.

When the student is ready the teacher enters! I have never had that been so profoundly true until I met Ana! Ana is first and foremost to me a teacher. She is a life coach, physical therapist and intuitive healer but to me she is most of all a gifted, unique, one of a kind teacher. I was on a rough physical path and had to give up my passion career as a School Psychologist. After 15 + Years of confounding and complex medical diagnoses I met Ana. I knew in my gut my life would change after that. I had been in chronic pain and fatigue from autoimmune illnesses coupled with debilitating neck pain and migraines. Ana told me it would be up to me how fast I healed by what work I was willing to put into my recovery. I was all in and had more energy and less pain after one session than I had in the previous 5+ years! I lived more in that week than I had lived in months! Now several sessions in I can confidently say I am in a renewed, passionate, exciting way of living and caring for myself. I have eliminated almost all pain in my body. I have renewed energy and I have QUALITY OF LIFE!!! I'm like a kid on Christmas excited each day for the next! Ana has taught me how I personally need to care for myself. Self care is not one size fits all! Ana truly teaches and not just puts you in another dependent relationship. If you see Ana YOU will take responsibility for you living, healing and self care! How empowering is that after 15+ years of chronic illness? I have so much gratitude for Ana everyday! Thank you! Thank you! read more

Ana has been my family's therapist for almost two years. She has mostly cared for my daughter, who struggles with a poor gait due to cerebral palsy, but she has also helped my husband's challenges (bad back and elbow), my son's challenges (very poor posture), and my problems ( very bad arthritic knees and pinched nerve). The amount of care we've received is unlike any other therapist we've known, and we've known several. She is AMAZING! We are all doing much better, and we're so thankful! read more

I had the Crystal Light treatment for my insomnia. It was a very relaxing experience. After only 1 treatment, It seems as though I am sleeping better. I would recommend this treatment for any body with such a disorder, including anxiety. And as always, Ana makes the experience so relaxing and comfortable. read more

Ana was instrumental in helping me recover from a lower back injury. She figured out the root causes of my injury, worked on healing my body, and helped correct the underlying causes. She is also a lovely person and a joy to work with. I will definitely go back to Ana for any PT I need in the future! read more

I met Ana through a mutual friend and I signed up for her stretch class. I am leaning how to use tennis balls and foam rollers to release tight muscles so my body can function with more easeful movements. Prior to the classes I asked Ana for suggestions to help ease pain and increase movement in my left shoulder. She suggested that I see her for physical therapy. In just four weeks I have been able to increase my range of movement and reduce the pain. Ana has explained the anatomy of the shoulder joint, as well as provided me with specific exercises to strengthen and stretch the arm and scapula. Ana is extremely accomplished as a physical therapist and healer. I highly recommend her services. read more

Ana is a gifted coach. I have attended two of her Wednesday mediations and have received great clarity from both. She has a beautiful way of connecting into the physical discomfort and guiding you through to the energetic discomfort. Here is where I saw and felt her gift. She lovingly brought me to the energy block that for years showed as a physical ailment. Together she allowed me the space to truly see the trauma and acknowledge that is was something that I no longer needed to hold on to. With in days I began to see and feel a change happen within my body. Her guidance has helped me acknowledge all the beautiful things around me and given me the courage to know that I am a strong and loving woman read more
