It's the only thing that's worked in over 7 years!…read more After years of cancer surgeries & taking hormone therapy I needed help. In full disclosure, I'm a curvy girl with booty & thighs/pear shaped. I'm active, walk a lot, cross-fit multiple times/week, drink lots of water, eat pescatarian & supplement protein with low-carb & low-sugar. Summary? I'm pretty healthy! I've struggled with weight for years (I'm 52) but always kept on top of it & exercised. I don't overeat, and I even have to make myself eat more as I don't eat enough. I've stayed around 170 (5'6") for prolly 8-10 years, and was maybe 155 in my 30's. I don't fluctuate with weight a lot. And with cancer & knee issues the past 5-8 years I've prolly been within 3-5 pounds of 170 the whole 5-8 years. I saw a nutritionist. I talked to my oncologist. I did intermittent fasting. Did Herbalife. Did Isagenix. Did Keto. Even did Lipo at one point! Im usually in a calorie deficit or very close with exercise. Needless to say I was fed up with being STUCK!! I've heard of B12 shots, had friends who did it with medium-results. I never tried it. So now was the tipping point to try one-more-thing! OMG WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! In just about 4 weeks, doing the shots on a 7-day basis & Phentermine in the mornings (these 2 combined are the regime here).....Im down almost 10 lb! I feel FANTASTIC, have energy WITHOUT any 'shakies' or heart-racing. My bloating is GONE. My carb & sweet cravings are only occasional & the smallest amount satisfies the urge. After the 1st shot, it took about 2-3 days & I started feeling decidedly pep-i-er. I thought it was mostly the Phentermine, but about 8-days in I forgot the Phentermine on a weekend trip & was still feeling GREAT after 2-days skipping it. Sometimes I forget in the AM, so I'll take 1/2 if it's lunchtime. It's about $180 the first visit which is the consult, measurements & 1 shot plus 5 to take home. YES, they do your BP, oxy, weight & est. BMI....it's benchmarking measures, this is not a doctors office folks, it's a practice. You get a consult with a Registered Nurse. At follow up it was $329 for 10 take-home shots & the Phentermine is about $11 at CVS. Advice is to do shots 5-7 days apart, you can continue for quite a while if desired as it's not a 'drug' but a supplement 'concoction'. Phentermine they suggest you can continue until it's not having an effect & then break for a month. I'm pretty healthy & just needed a 'nudge' for my metabolism, so 2-3 mo total will likely be my stopping point....just trying to be practical & focus on the MAIN contributors of diet+exercise! Bottom line, as a curvy girl, like most normal women, we struggle every day - for life. But I want to stay HEALTHY & ACTIVE!! This was THE ONLY THING that kick-started my metabolism!!! So INCREDIBLY happy I gave this a try!!!

5/5 Stars I have…read morecompleted my first biostimulation treatment at Beach aesthetics with Cait and I could not be happier with my experience. Because biostimulators (like [Sculptra / Radiesse]) work by rebuilding your own natural collagen rather than instantly filling the face, I was looking for subtle, long-lasting results. Cait and Ashley took the time to do a thorough consultation, explaining exactly what to expect and mapping out a conservative plan that perfectly suited my face. The injection process was fairly painless and very professional. Cait was incredibly gentle and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. It's been 2 weeks and so far, the results are fantastic. My skin feels firmer, my midface feels more lifted, my under eyes are not as loose and I look refreshed and still 100% like myself. I highly recommend Beach Aesthetics and Cait specifically to anyone looking for a natural, graceful way to rejuvenate their skin! Cait will be at their second location in Leland location starting soon!

It is my understanding that this practice was well esteemed under the former providers. However, I…read morefollowed Dr. Griffin over from her former practice and have been tremendously disappointed. While her personality isn't the warmest or engaging, I can deal with that as long as I am getting my needs addressed. When I switched to Tidal Wellness, I was told that the monthly fee would include having access to the doctor and administration via text or phone after hours. This was especially appealing since the main office phone rarely worked or was answered. This is definitely not as advertised. While you can text, it does not mean you will get a response. And I cannot count how many times the office phone was not functioning. Between the inability to get in touch with staff and the dirty exam table paper that still had the prior patient's imprints on it, I was a bit shocked. In addition, if you believe masks are important during a pandemic (as literally every other medical provider I have been to does), you may want to reconsider. I have never seen the doctor wear one, and her staff are hit or miss (they usually only put one on if you do). However, I continued to give the benefit of the doubt and attributed this to being overwhelmed with the start of a new business. Also, I really did not feel like starting over with someone new, so I continued. I am very active in my medical care and I believe it is important to be proactive. I ask questions and make sure I understand. The final straw came when I requested some simple labs be run. Dr Griffin obliged. However when I get the labs back, only a portion of them were run, but she had added on labs that were unnecessary. I realize I am not a doctor, but because I was the one requesting the labs and it wasn't due to actual symptoms occurring, there was Absolutely no medical basis for her to run these labs. A sidenote... My rheumatologist had run these exact special labs less than 30 days prior and they were completely fine. Now I am trying to battle with my insurance company to get them to pay for the same labs that were done in such a short period of time. There is the potential that I may be stuck with this bill. I have attempted numerous times to reach out to Dr Griffin to professionally and politely discuss this issue. She has avoided me. I stopped in to make an appointment and spoke with Nick. He scheduled me for a Telehealth appointment but then never put it in the system. When I called at the time of my appointment, he admitted his error, but then he responded with " that happens sometimes." Neither he nor Dr Griffin showed any real interest in trying to resolve this situation. I am not one to leave reviews; however, when a patient is paying money out of pocket for services, they should be aware of what they are receiving. And when we are talking about health...we deserve better as patients. I will happily pay the monthly fee for the remainder of this month and for next month. Based on my experiences going into the office, it is clear to me that tidal wellness needs it more than I do. The professionalism of this office is grossly suspect. I would caution anyone to do their research and be very careful when choosing whether or not to make this practice your point of contact for medical care. My recommendation for Dr. Griffin is that she spend some time training on office management. While she may have medical training, business management is clearly lacking. When you choose to run a business, you are choosing all of it.

You can tell the owners put a lot of thought into the design and overall ambiance of the place.

My only wish is for there to be more options for people who are sensitive to caffeine ‍ so that we can have a variety of flavors to choose from as well for the combos. But as far as flavor, it was right in line with what I usually get at a nutrition club. Great work ladies! I'll definitely come back when I'm in the area. Hope this helps!

I never like leaving a review for anything until I have an informed opinion, but this one is almost…read moretwo years overdue. I joined 9Round in the summer of 2021. I was coming off significant back issues and was hungry to get back into shape. I don't like "bro" gyms, and cardio was never my favorite either so I bounced around different places for a couple of months before a good friend recommended I check out the Lumina gym. In a matter of days, I was hooked. The 9Round workout is different from anything I had experienced before. You start with a one-on-one workout with a trainer to get oriented with the program and the stations. Almost immediately, you realize that the three-minute "rounds" go by extremely quickly - the martial-arts-style movements keep it super engaging, and the session is over before you know it. Again, I knew this was for me almost right away. I was clumsy and uncomfortable for a while, but the spirit of the trainers and the other members is very supportive - we're all learning new stuff every day, and we all sweat and grunt and look a little funny at times while we muscle through the workouts. It's a very fun vibe - a little bit Rocky, a little bit Karate Kid (1984), and just a hint of The Matrix. I know kung fu. I was very busy career wise for my first year at the gym, but I tried to make it in 4-5 days per week. Something that the 9Round marketing doesn't convey is the immense stress reduction you get from their workouts. Whatever is gnawing at you at the end of the day melts away after 30 minutes of jumping rope, smacking around a speed bag and running through a trainer drill. Although the program will encourage you to stay "in the yellow" on your heart-rate monitor, I found that the therapy value I get "in the red" was more profound than yoga, meditation, and well... actual therapy combined. I was losing weight, increasing stamina and feeling bloody fantastic. About ten months ago, my wife got jealous of all the fun I was having, and she started joining me for daily workouts. She got the plot even faster than I did and was hooked just as much. I was a little defensive of my guy time in the beginning, but surprisingly, this place is totally wired for couples. We have a blast competing in weekly challenges as well as in trying to embarrass the trainers with our weird sense of humor... All of the members we've met here are friendly, approachable and totally in the zone! Although you're in close proximity, each station feels private - everyone is in their own headspace and their own struggle. The subtext of camaraderie is very cool. All ages, all abilities, we all go all in. This has been a year of big changes for us. It's not totally relevant to this review, but we have had multiple hard losses in our immediate family. At times, everything felt upside down, but the gym was always there for us. After a while, we started going twice per day - once in the morning to get our heads right for the day, and once after work to bring the stress levels back down. I completely credit 9Round for a lot of healing that's happened. Sure, the workout is phenomenal, and you get lots of feelings out on the heavy bag rounds. But the best asset 9Round has going for it is the extraordinary trainers. Every one of the professional trainers we work with at 9Round is knowledgeable, fun, and engaging. They meet you where you are on the workout side and help you to advance and get stronger. On top of that, they are also some of the kindest, friendliest people we've met in Wilmington. There has never been a bad day at the office they can't make better. We consider them our friends as well as our fitness coaches. These folks work hard every day, and we appreciate it very much. I'm in the best shape I've been in since my 20's. For realsies. My diet is probably a B- at best, but I'm down 20 pounds and 10 points of body fat. My back problems are negligible now. This is not an infomercial! Get yourself into the gym, do three or four workouts, and see for yourself if I'm exaggerating. *fist bump*
