“My experience with the remote holistic session with Shawn was so effective. I had been dealing with a pinched nerve in my neck for five weeks, and it was very painful. After a half hour session with Shawn later that day, the pinched nerve was better. It was an incredible relief. I have also done several other sessions for general anxiety and the calmness feel afterwards is amazing. I would absolutely recommend the remote holistic sessions!”

“Shawn was by far the best person I saw during my rotator cuff tear pre surgery. This was my first time experiencing anything like CoAT™ before. She was amazing! I was able to play a complete summer ball season before needing to get surgery on my shoulder - her treatments allowed me to play competitively with confidence through my injury. I highly recommend her for any baseball or sport injuries because she is top notch at what she does and her knowledge is out of this world.”

"Shawn's approach (CoAT™) is unique, and it works. I saw results immediately after my treatment. I went directly from my first session into the gym and I saw better performance instantly. My range of motion has improved. I can get deeper into a squat than I ever have before. I should also say that when you get a treatment and notice an improvement, that feeling of increased mobility doesn't just go away. The improvements are lasting."

"I didn't know what to think when I first tried Shawn's fascial treatment (CoAT™), but after a few sessions, I realized it was helping my knee injury - and everything around it. It's a new treatment method that I wasn't used to, and it's really helped me. The technique showed me that everything in my body is connected. And it wasn't just a treatment focused on the physical - I learned how to focus on my breathing too. It's something I will definitely continue receiving. After a treatment, I have more energy and more awareness of my body."

— Lance Bouma, Linköping HC (SHL)

“I first started treatment with Shawn for wrist pain that I had been experiencing for the past 3 years that I had yet to find any sort of treatment that helped.  I had pain in both my wrists, as well as tingling, sharp knife like pains and pins and needles in my forearms.  I didn’t know what to expect when Shawn first started talking about implementing somatic treatment into my therapy, but after only one session I noticed a difference already.  After each session, my wrists keep on improving.  The somatic treatment has allowed me to further understand how important the physical and mental connection is and how our bodies can speak to us and let us know what they need.”

— Kallie O’hearn, MacEwan University (Canada West hockey)

"CoAT™ is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. As an athlete, I have struggled for many years to find a therapist who could relieve any pain or previous injuries effectively for a long period of time. However, after experiencing CoAT™, within one session I already felt a significant improvement within my whole body. I remember my first session with Shawn clearly: I was struggling with a shoulder injury and a day later after visiting her, I was already back to where I was before the injury. Not only has visiting Shawn improved my physique, but the overall treatment in regards to mindfulness, has truly transformed my well-being. During sessions, there have been many discussions about various topics such as positive self-talk, how connected the body is with the mind, and the intelligence of our bodies. Getting to know our bodies is something Shawn has educated me about and I leave every treatment session with both my body and my mind at peace. Words cannot describe the environment Shawn builds during her treatments - it is truly unlike anything I have ever experienced throughout my entire journey of training as a hockey player. I can say with full confidence that so many aspects of both my game and personal life have been impacted in the best way possible because of Shawn’s technique and care."

— Katie Chan, Cornell University (NCAA)

“CoAT™ is unlike any other treatment I have received before. The majority of therapists I have worked with focus solely on the problem area(s), while neglecting the rest of the body. When you work with Shawn, you become aware of how often times the opposite side of your body, relative to the area in pain, needs just as much attention. Over the course of two years, I have worked with Shawn for a wide range of injuries and other times just general body maintenance. Most recently, I was advised I needed surgery on my wrist due to an old injury. I was reluctant to have another surgery unless it was absolutely necessary. After working with Shawn throughout the summer, my wrist feels better than ever and I no longer require surgery. Simply put, the reason I continue to turn to Shawn for CoAT™ is because it works.”

— Colton Jobke, Ingolstadt Panthers (DEL)

“CoAT™ is different than other treatments, as Shawn treats the entire body, which is important to me. I notice a difference in the troubled areas with this approach. CoAT™ has helped me a lot with my postural issues and continues to help with them. I notice a difference right after treatment - if I come in feeling stiff and not prepared to workout or skate, CoAT™ treatments get me feeling ready to train.”
