If you are looking for physical growth along with building immeasurable confidence in your life,…read moreand tapping into a strength you didn't even know you had, FitByWhitt is the trainer for you. Her training is not easy, it will be difficult but you will break boundaries you didn't think you could. I have seen her help change people's lives in so many ways because of her dedication to helping people grow confidence even when they think they can't. There is a comradery in her group training sessions that fills the room with an uncontrollable strength; It brings people back, and makes you hungry for more. In a world where you're told to be reserved, she gives you a space to be a savage. She breathes consistency and her daily mottos are #TrainDifferent #EveryDamnDay. If you've come across her Instagram and thought about joining her training sessions, I recommend you make the leap. It will be the greatest decision you'll make for YOURSELF.

Highly recommend.

Dennis responded promptly to my emergency request and suggested a friends' house rental nearby. We played phone and text tag for the next handful of hours but with Dennis's patience and my sporadic GPS, I finally met up with him @ the rental property... I fell in love with the house! And so I found out Dennis and his partner Paul help clean and turnover their friends' rental house. The attention to detail was in par of a 5 star hotel! folded plush towels and small details like freshly folded kitchen handtowel and sponge was so thoughtful! The place was immaculately clean! the kitchen was fully equipped with utensils and appliances to prepare every meal! Dennis & his partner were so kind to process the paperwork @ their house with a touch of kind hospitality offering fruit. Their house was also immuculately clean, sun-filled and laid back vibed anointed that I also noted to stay here for my next visit.

Plus sleep in late and eat bkfst when YOU want! We did on those rainy days! :)

I'm new to the area, and was pretty bummed to leave a great team of integrative medicine folks in…read morethe SF Bay Area. After 3+decades of pretty intense athletic adventures, I originally called Heather for help with some niggling physical stuff (plantar fasciitis, hamstring tendinitis, a grumpy shoulder) and also some deeper, systemic stuff I was experiencing (which later turned out to be a thyroid and adrenal issue.) I have experience with several different types of Accupuncture- and on our first call Heather let me know that her method might be different from what I was used to. She emphasized that she uses a subtle, systemic rebalancing approach - and that while we would work on my specific issues, it might be a different process than I was used to. The truth is, I've never found two practitioners to be the same, and part of what I find so effective about accupuncture is that each practitioner has a framework that speaks to their own experience and their energy- at best it's a partnership where their methods, training and energy meet my present circumstances and behaviors, and the healing happens somewhere in the middle. That's what I've found here. In my life, accupuncture with heather is an important part of what I'm doing to feel better - in addition to working with a naturopathic doc and doing physio. Bodies take maintenance- we live in them every day- and working with Heather has helped not just the acute physical injuries, but also feels like it's gradually helping restore some of the general sense of wellness I've been lacking. I really love that Heather offers in-home treatment. Facing health challenges is an incredibly vulnerable, emotional process - and I couldn't have a better partner in what is definitely a journey toward feeling like myself again. Heather holds space for not just the physical healing, but also creates a safe container for talking thru - and feeling - the more emotional side of the process. Her vast technical expertise is matched her kindness. I'm grateful to Heather (and Yelp!) for walking with me thru what has been a wildly challenging wellness year.

Also the whole fire department knows and loves her and they always know who is staying which is sweet as they are watching out for her. It's been rough over the pandemic since there haven't been many visitors but hopefully that picks back up. The room was quite cozy and bed was comfortable. Had a hot shower after being soaked in the cold rain and that was nice. (Please leave a TIP for the Cleaning person! She cleans and that's how she makes her money - also hard during the pandemic!) The breakfast she made us the next morning was AMAZING!!! And she loves tea so I'm ordering her some of my favorite from the mainland to be delivered to her. Also - she asks you to arrive during daylight because 1. It's hard to see and find your way at night. And 2. She's older and doesn't need to be answering the door to strangers at night.
