Very happy. Emily has been extremely helpful in diagnosing my back. Although I'm still experiencing pain, a good portion of it went away. Emily is knowledgable and makes things easy to understand.

I have been very happy with my time at SPEAR and with Emily. I feel like I have made a lot of progress in a relatively short amount of time. Emily pushes me to get more out of each exercise and also is aware when we need to modify something to make it more executable.
