The first time I'd been to the doctor, chiropractor and physical therapy, and had very little relief after 3 weeks. I was relying heavily on pain meds just to get through the day. He massaged my neck, clavicle, and arms and I felt so much better walking out that I couldn't believe it. The next day, I was pretty much back to normal! This last time I didn't think of Ryan first thing because it was my sacroiliac and I didn't realize he could help with that. I had seen the chiropractor 4 times and the doctor once before I thought of going for a massage. Again, the difference in just one day was incredible. I've also gone in when I just wanted a nice massage, and was not disappointed. But from now on when I have muscle or joint pain, I'll be calling After Effect first! And if all of this wasn't enough, Ryan is also a really nice guy who makes you feel relaxed and comfortable right away. He has my highest recommendation.

I have had many many massages over the years and Carla was as good as any massage therapist I have ever experienced. I have pinched nerves on either side of my lower spine so I asked Carla to focus on that area. My mother in law also had a classic massage and Carla's touch with her was just right. My wife opted for part deep tissue and part Ashiatsu which allows for an even deeper pressure as Carla uses her bare feet. I will try that next time! I highly recommend Carla. She is a true professional and has a sweet spirit as well.

I was at my wit's end trying to get a breast reduction surgery while at a BMI of 39. I had been trying to lose that last stubborn 20 pounds for years but just couldn't get the weight off. I was rejected for Semaglutide by my insurance company because I am not diabetic, so I decided to buy it out of pocket. Kimberly has been with me every step of the way, checking in with me as I titrated on the medication and making sure I came in for the B-vitamin infusions that came with my Semaglutide package. I am now 30 pounds down with a BMI of 31.5 and eagerly awaiting my breast reduction consultation! At one of my appointments, I mentioned that I had been thinking about getting a Botox lip flip and that I suffer from tension headaches. Ali mentioned that Botox can help with tension headaches, which was all I needed to hear - I was back in a week later to plump my pout and immobilize my 11's. I have had wonderful results, both aesthetically and tension headache-wise, and I have zero regrets. During the Botox conversation, I also mentioned that I really disliked the dark wells under my eyes and the asymmetry of my facial features. These can't really be addressed with Botox, but could be with filler. I decided to go ahead with the filler, and I am thrilled that I did. I look natural - no filler mustache or overblown Kardashian cheekbones - just younger, brighter and less tired. Kimberly did my injections with a patient, gentle hand and incredible attention to detail - I couldn't ask for more. Check out my before and after pics - I can't believe the difference! I can't speak highly enough about the care, service and results I have gotten from Kimberly and the rest of the staff at RENUE Wellness.
