Be Healthy – Ana Marinho

Ana Marinho has been an incredible Health partner. Her knowledge, experience, background and personality provide for the perfect recipe to get the job done. She knows exactly how to create a healing and safe practice that encourages health and well-​being. And she doesn’t only do but she teaches and creates a partnership so that I can rely on her but not need to depend on anyone else but myself. She is a true healer.

The best. Don’t bother with the others. Ana helped me before I had hip replacement and after in my healing. I don’t believe I would be doing this well if I hadn’t gone to her. It’s now almost 2 years and I follow her at home exercises and get a touchup in a small class every once in awhile. She’s great to help with previous back problems and I highly recommend her to help you operate life with less pain and more flexibility.

I had the Crystal Light treatment for my insomnia. It was a very relaxing experience. After only 1 treatment, It seems as though I am sleeping better. I would recommend this treatment for any body with such a disorder, including anxiety. And as always, Ana makes the experience so relaxing and comfortable.

Ana is the best! She is generous with her time and has an obvious enthusiasm in her job. She has diverse skills and has helped me multiple times. I highly recommend her.

After a serious injury to my ankle that just wouldn’t heal, I sought out Ana’s services as a physical therapist. She quickly got to the cause of the problem, and helped me tremendously with this difficult injury. She is a wonderful healer, is very intuitive, and is a profoundly positive influence in my life. I am feeling much better and am able to exercise again because of her patient and diligent care. She is truly a gem, I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Ana has been my family’s therapist for almost two years. She has mostly cared for my daughter, who struggles with a poor gait due to cerebral palsy, but she has also helped my husband’s challenges (bad back and elbow), my son’s challenges (very poor posture), and my problems (very bad arthritic knees and pinched nerve). The amount of care we’ve received is unlike any other therapist we’ve known, and we’ve known several. She is AMAZING! We are all doing much better, and we’re so thankful!

I met Ana through a mutual friend and I signed up for her stretch class. I am leaning how to use tennis balls and foam rollers to release tight muscles so my body can function with more easeful movements. Prior to the classes I asked Ana for suggestions to help ease pain and increase movement in my left shoulder. She suggested that I see her for physical therapy. In just four weeks I have been able to increase my range of movement and reduce the pain. Ana has explained the anatomy of the shoulder joint, as well as provided me with specific exercises to strengthen and stretch the arm and scapula. Ana is extremely accomplished as a physical therapist and healer. I highly recommend her services.

Ana has been my physical therapist for over 2 yrs. She has the «touch» and really know the body and what she is doing. I have benefited greatly from working with her.
I have also used and recommended Ana as a coach. She is the best in all she does!

I started working with Ana a year ago to gain strength in my leg where the muscle and nerves
had atrophied due to cancer. I had very little hope that things would improve. with a
combination of physical therapy and Pilates, Ana has given me back the ability to walk without
limping and to live my life without pain. She identifies the problem and works on the solution
with the biggest smile and the most positive energy. There are other physical issues that she has helped me with as well with fantastic results.

Ana is a very positive and skilled physical therapist. She puts me at ease and talks me through everything she is doing. I like the way she explains the hows and whys. I recently fell and twisted my ankle, and I’m already feeling the results of her therapy techniques. Plus she gives me hope that I will be back on my feet, with no pain sooner than I had expected. I’ve also done a coaching session with her. Her kind and positive approach will not let you down.

Ana is a very skilled physical therapist! She quickly identified the problems with my back and shoulder and began working on the muscles. In one session she was able to unlock my shoulder and restore most of my range of motion. She gave me great advice on how to exercise and stretch the problem area. Thanks Ana!

There are answers to the questions a suffering person asks repeatedly and Ana will help absolutely help you find them. She has been instrumental in my complete transformation from a very unhappy, depressed, and suffering (physically, emotionally, and mentally) individual into the beautiful and thriving butterfly I’ve become!
I began working with her several years ago, in physical therapy. It was a painful process in which I relearned to walk and found I can do literally anything. Her firm yet gentle approach is magnificent as she pushes you to work through the pain and face it head on so that you can truly begin to believe happiness and a pain-​free life are possible.
After a year and a half of the physical therapy I also began working with Ana on life coaching, which I love! She will not do the work for you but she will help you develop the tools and discover the direction you choose for life. Ana is a beautiful and intelligent guide on the journey to freedom!!!

Today’s session was incredible. Ana asked all the right questions to get to the root of my problem pretty quickly. She is very thorough and has strong yet soothing hands. She combines western and eastern philosophy and channels a very calm and soothing energy. She is specific about the diagnosis and tells you what her plan is to bring you back to health.
Ana is very knowledgeable, intuitive, and gentle, all great traits for a physical therapist. I had a really painful muscle spasm and she gave me so much relief just after one visit. I highly recommend Ana’s magic hands.
