Rachel, as inspired by her mother, a breast cancer survivor, in recent years has guided her practice increasingly toward post-mastectomy and reconstructive rehab. Implementing the principles of GYROTONIC® and Pilates, Rachel safely and compassionately introduces the body’s return to movement: addressing restrictions in the full range of motion in the upper extremities, restoring blood flow, strength, flexibility, and confidence to go forward into health.
There are few limitations to Rachel's willingness to use her mastery to bring the body to its full expression: she has treated children suffering from Junior Rheumatoid Arthritis, patients working through all stages of Multiple Schlerosis, ALS, Lupus, Major Artificial Joint Replacements, Pre & Post-Partum Syndromes, Diabetes, and Arthritis. She has even helped champion Olympiades improve previously over-trained muscle imbalances, core strength and flexibility, to set current world records.
