"Jamie became my therapist after a car accident in 2008. It was a matter of faith because the accident did not create too much damage compared to the condition that my body was already in. I
blamed my low back pain on growing too quickly in my 20’s. Although I am an active person and do different sports, the pain became chronic in my 30’s to the point where I could not walk more than
an hour without sitting for a rest. A job where I was needed to stand was an impossibility. Performing regular office tasks while sitting in a chair was always a challenge as well. My whole posture
needed a miracle.
I am a salsa dancer and among my first visits, I showed Jamie how I could only do spins on the right leg. I was completely out of balance when trying to do them on the opposite side.
I have seen Jamie for almost 2 1/2 years. She works 1-on-1 with me. After a year of combined exercises and healthy living in general (I run a green smoothie business) I began to notice my
body started to reshape itself. Muscles that were dormant were now activated over my entire posture.
One of the reasons my life is so worth living today is because Jamie helped me regain control over my body. I can do spins on both sides these days, standing and walking are rarely a problem
and my whole body awareness has dramatically improved. I look good and feel good.
I will continue to see Jamie as I see continuous benefits. Besides, she is fun to be around and always brings a smile to my face. I am blessed to have met her and almost grateful for the
accident back in 2008. I cannot even imagine where I would be today without the gift and dedication of my athletic therapist.
Thank you for everything you do for me and many others every single day, Jamie Bessant!"

"I suffered a serious neck injury when I was 14. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered there would be many long term side effects that would begin to show up. My spine became seriously misaligned and abnormal stresses played havoc with the rest of my structure. I was fortunate enough to find an excellent chiropractor who was able to correct the spine issue, however by this time tremendous damage had occurred throughout my neck and back muscular system. I was in constant discomfort and nothing brought relief for more than a few hours at a time.
Jamie discovered a whole array of muscular problems that were contributing to my ongoing discomfort. Through a series of well designed exercises, Jamie taught me to retrain the old damaged muscles and give them new life.
I am now pain free and have found a whole new range of motion that I thought was lost forever. It is without any hesitation that I recommend Jamie Bessant."

"Jamie was the first person to tell me that I didn't have to live with pain. This had never occurred to me before since I had lived with it almost every day for 17 years. She is helping me
to retrain my muscles and has referred me to other resources that are helping me put all the pieces of the puzzle together. Thanks so much Jamie!"

"I tore the meniscus in my knee, 5 weeks before a medical mission/hiking trip to Peru. I was on crutches, and could not bear weight on the leg for 10 days. The MRI revealed it was a bucket
tear, and flipped back inside the knee joint. While surgery is the only real fix for this, Jamie provided rehab therapy to get me back to a functional state. The program Jamie designed for me had
amazing results. It greatly reduced my pain and enabled me to get back to my daily routine, and to go on my trip. She helped me adapt my program so that I could still do the exercises while in remote
back-country locations, living out of a tent. This experience has taught me the incredible value of exercise as a part of any rehab program. With the right training, there is so much you can do to
help yourself. I am so grateful to Jamie, for literally getting me back on my feet, and able to do this trip of a lifetime.’
