Whole Health Solutions did a phenomenal job of helping me recover from an ankle sprain. I did multiple sessions with Jianna and Gary. They completely took care of me and assisted/quickened my recovery process. Appointments consisted of Dry Needling, tissue work, and strength building exercises. Whole Health Solutions provides excellent service and a personable experience each and every time.
