Donna, Your comment to my review is further proof of your lack of professionalism! The story was…read morenot changing. I was unaware of the medical emergency I was going to have at the time of our call. I felt a stomach cramp at the time I called and asked to reschedule, and it was something I planned to address in doc appts on Tuesday & Wednesday. Once confirmed, I wanted to reschedule the colonic to prioritize those appointments, since a cramp isn't a medical emergency but it was unpleasant. From your comment, it sounds in order for you to have shown compassion/flexibility, you needed every detail of my doctors appts, which I don't understand. Your tone when I asked to reschedule, even when it was shy of an hour's difference from the cancellation period, was abrupt and unprofessional. I wish I'd said then that I couldn't make it, but a stomach cramp is a common enough period/GI symptom I was hoping could resolve (and be addressed more holistically with my doctors the following days). I was unaware of the severity of what would then be a kidney infection until the time I chose to go to the ER. Again, a belly cramp isn't an alarming symptom on its own, nor something I thought indicative of relating to my kidney, but vomiting later was. I called that night as a courtesy, with the hope you'd hear it early am and inform the therapist before setting up. Also, I can still think and write a review with a kidney infection, especially after getting the medical treatment I needed to focus on rather than making it to a colonic appt. Your comments trying to diminish the validity of my emergency are untrue and show further lack of compassion. I left the review because people should know about your inflexibility/lack of compassion. I have been to Gravity twice before which constitutes a relationship, contrary to what you posted, and I asked about rescheduling (rather than canceling) on that call because I wanted to keep the relationship. Again, it was a (barely) 3 vs 2 hr time difference for cancellation, and would've been enough time to disclose to the therapist they wouldn't have to come in. Your manner on that phone call was abrupt and rude. That's another thing people should know before booking. Good luck to YOU in the future when conducting business this way, including the lengthy/over-share responses you leave to negative reviews. I hope they serve as further proof of your lack of professionalism to prospective clients - it should've to me.

And an added perk is the lounge where I can arrive a little early, relax, watch some TV, grab a protein bar, leave the hectic day behind, and get my mind and body ready for an intense workout. Thanks again, Paola and Ray, for creating such a welcoming and supportive place!

I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Maura! My backstory is that I have Hashimoto's…read morehypothyroidism. For 3-4 years I felt an overall sluggishness, with symptoms including brain fog, social anxiety that I never had before, and lack of motivation (all of which felt very out of the norm for me) even though my blood work was showing "great" numbers for thyroid function. After several years of getting my thyroid dosage and blood test results to a great place, I still felt pretty meh and was experiencing this intense bloating (not kidding it looked like I was pregnant by end of each day) that nothing could get rid of. So I knew that it had to be something else, not just thyroid medication/dosage-related. I suspected, based on reading about its symptoms, that SIBO could be involved. Sure enough Dr. Maura tested me for it and we discovered methane-dominant SIBO, and we started what would be a 4-month supplement and dietary protocol. It is not an easy diet (you'll probably need to remove gluten and dairy at minimum), and you will probably feel socially isolated at some points, but consider that it's such a short time frame to turn your life and health around! Now about a month off of the diet and supplements and having transitioned every food I love back in (not avoiding gluten/dairy or anything anymore), I feel like I process everything very well - even whole milk dairy, which gave me awful symptoms before! Anyway, definitely see Dr. Maura if this sounded anything like what you're going through - she was an immensely helpful guide through it all and a great listener! You can keep connected with her on an online portal as well, making her accessible and there for you even between appointments. It will not be through insurance so it's not cheap, but I always think your health is the best investment :) Thank you Dr. Maura for a wonderful experience! I've already recommended you to several of my friends and intend to do so to anyone else who is suffering through these frustrating symptoms.
