“As a 48 year old woman weight training with Gina has made a huge difference in my life! Working out at Beyond FITness helped transform my body and my spirit. I’ve lost weight, gained confidence and become stronger physically and mentally. Even though I had never lifted weights before, she taught me the proper way to exercise safely and encouraged me to try things I never thought I could – like entering a bench press competition or doing pull ups. Gina isn’t a drill sergeant-style trainer. Her approach is encouraging and positive. No matter your goal, completing your first triathlon, improving balance to avoid falls or losing 20 pounds – Gina is an amazing partner who will help you achieve it.”

I’ve been seeing Gina for MATRX for about a year, and it has significantly reduced my chronic back pain. We’ve also begun working on strength training to complement the MATRX, which has improved my overall physical well-being - I find that my back pain is less prone to flaring up when traveling, exercising, or if I accidentally sit or lift things with bad posture.
Before finding Gina I went to several doctors, including an orthopedist, pain management doctor, and physical therapist, none of who could help me identify the problem or resolve the root cause of pain. I am so grateful to now be on a program with her that is focused on building a stronger, more resilient body rather than just treating pain as a symptom. Thank you Gina!

"When the Covid pandemic lockdown was declared, I was forced to start teaching on Zoom from my home computer. Besides the hours I spent teaching from my desk chair, I had to spend many additional hours meeting virtually with students and faculty, grading online, answering email, etc. It seems that I did little else but sit at my computer all day. Within a month or two, I was experiencing pain whenever I sat down, no matter how comfortable the chair. I consulted a chiropractor, who did an adjustment and some massage, but that didn't help. I bought various gel cushions online, but they didn't help. I was convinced that I had permanently injured my coccyx and would never be able to sit comfortably again.
When I mentioned my problem to Gina, she assured me that my coccyx was not injured but that I had developed a muscle imbalance in my glutes. She did a few in-person MAT sessions with me followed by bi-weekly Zoom sessions for maintenance. Amazingly, the sitting pain disappeared after the MAT sessions, and the Zoom maintenance exercises, targeted at the glutes, have kept the pain from coming back.
I was so impressed with how quickly Gina identified the problem and used the gentle, non-invasive MAT techniques to reactivate my glute muscles. The MAT sessions and Zoom maintenance exercises have totally alleviated the sitting pain and kept it away!"

“With great patience and small steps, Gina makes miracles. I first came to her when I wanted to build strength ahead of hip replacement surgery. Now, three years later, I am taking horseback riding lessons! Beyond the weights and the leg lifts, the MAT (muscle activation technique) that she practices has engaged muscles I haven’t used in years. Amazing!”

After 25 years with very few pain-free days—and after working with numerous physical therapists and orthopedists—I was told that physical therapy had done all it could and that I would need to manage the pain on my own. I have been working with Gina for about a year to improve chronic hip and lower-body pain and mobility issues. Today, I experience multiple pain-free days in a row — something I once thought might never be possible.
Gina’s work with MAT has been remarkable. The process is pain-free, noninvasive, and completely different from the other treatments I have tried. If you are considering MAT, keep two things in mind:
1. MAT is a different paradigm. Be open to a method that may be unlike any therapy you have tried before.
2. Give the process time. Long-standing dysfunction may take more than a handful of visits to improve.
I am deeply grateful to Gina for the progress I have made and would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with persistent muscle-related pain, weakness, or mobility issues.
