Move Well. Live Well. The Well Co.

“I turned to Athlete’s Mechanic after being released from standard physical therapy - but still not able to return to my post injury activities. I still struggled with both chronic pain and reduced mobility. Ashley evaluated my ability level and designed therapy that addressed “the holes” in my recovery process. I finally had hope of a fuller recovery! Dr Romine analyzed and retrained my gait and provided an exercise program that increased BOTH my mobility and decreased my pain level! She also used dry needling and manual therapy to address my specific needs. I am very thankful to have found such thorough and individualized therapy at Athlete’s Mechanic! The staff is much more concerned and available than any other physical therapy I have received. Today I have returned to a very satisfying level of fitness, and no longer deal with debilitating chronic pain. Can’t rate this team highly enough!”

“Ashley is extremely professional and her knowledge of the body and its movements are unmatched. As a lifelong runner, I find my share of overuse injuries. Ashley provides a one-on-one, physical therapy experience that other practices can’t or don’t offer. No more sharing time with other patients. For me, this approach translated to less time and money spent and a quicker comeback!”

“I had the privilege of having Dr. Romine give me my first experience with dry needling. Words can not explain how amazing it was! Instant relief of pain in the treated areas! Also, the knowledge she brings along with the treatment is fantastic and will help everyone have a better understanding of what is going on with their bodies.”

“I have had such a wonderful experience with Ashley. She is very professional and beyond knowledgeable when it comes to body mechanics. She was able to pinpoint my problem areas on evaluation and make a plan of care to move forward with treatment and home program. She was able to teach me mobility and stability exercises to retrain my muscles and increase their strength so I no longer hurt. Along with the AMAZING dry needling, I am pain-free. Highly recommend Ashley with Athlete’s Mechanic, LLC if you are looking for a reliable, educated and devoted physical therapist.”

“When my back went out, Ashley pinpointed the problem in one session and gave me a home exercise program that had me back on the tennis court by the weekend. When I had whiplash from a car accident, she not only increased my neck rotation by 50% in one session, but located trigger points in my shoulder that I didn’t realize contributed to my pain and used dry needling to greatly reduce the discomfort.”

“Two years ago I found myself out of shape. I was worried about getting injured, balance and aging. Research convinced me that a strong core is essential for all of these, especially avoiding injury . Since working with Mindful Movement I have become much stronger, feel better, have more energy and my balance when tested by my doctor, was much improved. Also, when I had an accident and injured my neck Meghan was able to provide the therapy I needed - including dry needles which was amazing! Wish I had started with Mindful Movement sooner!!”

“I “stumbled upon” Dr. Megs practice on social media. I stopped scrolling and clicked to read more as the word “scoliosis” jumped out at me. I have been struggling with low back and hip pain chronically for approx five years. I have a compressed nerve due to the advancement of my curve. I have been to every doctor and therapy known to mankind. Not ONE professional addressed my scoliosis. I wish I had found Dr. Meg sooner. I signed up for the online classes and then realized it would be so beneficial to work one-on-one. I go to the studio once a week and I am amazed at what I have learned about my body (curve) in five sessions. If you have tried everything out there and still searching for answers make an appointment. Dr. Meg explains everything ... she makes it so very comfortable to work together and did I mention her adorable dog Nikko? My experience has been nothing short of outstanding ... I highly recommend.”

“Dr. Meg at Mindful Movement is fabulous! Finally, someone who takes my scoliosis issues seriously in all of the myriad ways scoliosis affects my life. Dr. Meg is extremely knowledgeable, has experience with scoliosis herself, and truly cares for her clients. I have tried many types of doctors, PTs, personal fitness trainers, exercise programs, you name it and I was never satisfied. I constantly was getting injured, not making much progress, dealt with a lot of pain, and felt incapable and frustrated with my inability to do certain exercises, movements, and activities. Dr. Meg tailor's your exercises specially to address your scoliosis, provides education on how your scoliosis affects you, gives advice, answers questions that come up, and helps with many of the mental aspects of scoliosis. I am no longer frustrated! I feel capable, have a toolbox of exercises that help me feel better, and hope that with work I can reach my goals. I recommend Dr. Meg to anyone who feels limited by their scoliosis, who struggles to be heard by other medical and fitness professionals, who is frustrated with not living the active life they want to, who is tired of pain from daily tasks that must be done. Dr. Meg is already making a huge difference in my life and I am very grateful to be on this health journey with her as my guru! :)”

“I have mild scoliosis, but the pain on most days is more than mild and that is what lead me to start paying more attention to my curve. I came across Meg by chance, as I was searching online for answers and I am oh so glad that I found her. I could not figure out what I was doing to cause the pain. After spending some time going over my curve and how to properly elongate, I can say that my pain has definitely decreased. I now have exercises and stretches to do when things really act up. Also I am so much more aware of how I am sitting and standing which helps to minimize discomfort. This has greatly been thanks to Meg and her knowledge of scoliosis.”

—Petra DeBrincat

“After years of being told there’s nothing to do about scoliosis in adulthood, Dr Meg has made me realize how untrue that is! I feel stronger, sleep better and have reduced pain on a daily basis. She truly understands and explains the way our whole bodies connect to our spines and how to adjust daily movements along with the exercises provided specific to your body. I highly recommend to her everyone with scoliosis!”
