I've been suffering with pelvic girdle pain and weakness on my left side…read more since giving birth to my daughter 2.5 years ago. Prior to seeing Kathleen, I had seen several practitioners including two chiropractors, three pelvic floor PTs, and an exercise specialist. Nothing really helped. Enter Kathleen. She has this amazing ability to tell what isn't balanced in the body and can sense it with her hands! After just three sessions, I feel so much more balanced and strong on my left side and I barely have any pain. Kathleen is also very knowledgeable in the mind-body connection and how one affects the other. She has a very calming presence which is exactly what I need when I'm in pain to not flare up anxiety and make the pain worse. I would recommend her to any friends and family without reservation!

He fine tuned one of his homeopathic remedies for me and it has literally saved my life. Or, at least made it so I can function throughout the day. I feel very lucky to find this doctor and become one of his patients. He has helped many many patients with his Homeopathic remedies. He certainly knows what he is doing and takes the time to help you. He is kind, caring and very compassionate. I totally recommend his services.

I had a car accident a month ago and came to Dr. Erskin because I was concerned about the concussion symptoms I was experiencing as well as muscular strain/sprain flare-ups. I have had a lot of other types of bodywork and chiropractic over the years so I am very particular and discerning about the quality of work I receive. I can highly recommend Dr. Erskin- he really hones in on the exact areas that need attention and very adeptly allows the body to respond and let go of tension. After two treatments, my brain is feeling more online. He also recommended specific supplements that would help with my recovery that other practitioners didn't consider. I look forward to continued progress in his care.

Blue Sky Osteopathy Center is a beautiful and peaceful office space close to downtown Sebastopol (on my last visit in June they were practicing safety protocols due to Covid which was very reassuring).

Stressors such as physical/emotional trauma(s), lifestyle choices, and environmental exposures occurring anytime in a patient's life can challenge and compromise a given patient's Health. When the Health is compromised, acute/chronic disease, developmental dysfunction, and pain can be initiated or aggravated. The fingerprint of the above stressors can be found in any (or all) of following three critical aspects - that together determine the vitality of a patient's Health: * Physical structure (cranial, spinal, visceral, extremities etc...), * Mental state and perspective * Spiritual awareness and exploration The practice of Osteopathy is an established hands-on diagnosis and manipulative treatment experience that strives to address, facilitate, and integrate the above aspects. When successful, the expression of optimal patient Health becomes the primary treatment of suffering. Dr. R. Mitchell Hiserote DO is a California licensed osteopathic physician since 1998, and maintains a current national board certification in Neuromuscular/Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine.
