How can we help you?

Marcia was the key to my recovery after my accident. She has been working with me through my struggles to get my like back. She has increased my activities as my health has improved, not pushing to much, just enough. She came up with a plan from the beginning and has guided me through my ups and downs on my recovery path.

If someone had told me five years ago that my chronic back pain or numb right leg was not permanent damage, and then said it could be reversed after one visit with Marcia Kirby I'd have laughed and bet $500 they were dead wrong. Nonetheless, Marcia's skill with the technique called IMS (inter muscle stimulation) does in fact work miracles. When a joint gets injured (or traumatized by surgery,) our body surrounds it with a long-term ridged muscle spasm to hold everything in place so no further damage occurs. However, once the original injury is healed that same protective spasm often remains. Incapable of realeasing itself the spasm intensifies the pain and we assume this means the original injury didn't heal properly. IMS sticks an accupunture needle into the middle of the chronic spasm and causes it to rapidly contract & release multiple times per second, (which sometimes hurts during the treatment and we try not to curse Marcia out loud, haha.) When she's done, that super-tight muscle becomes a bowl of Jello and our long-term suffering is simply gone. BOOM! GONE! Thank you Marcia, Thank You.
