Irvine
Why Irvine patients choose video.
Irvine is young families, engineers, physicians and university faculty, many of them with grandparents in the house. Pregnancy and postpartum recovery, diastasis recti and C-section recovery are the everyday reasons to book, along with neck and back pain from long hours at a desk.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in California: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
