General Therapy

Unbelievable!! I’ll never be able to explain the amount of pain, chronic pain I’ve been battling soon to be two years. Every doctor in the area trying, failing, or turning me away. I pretty much was living at the ER until a doctor recommended Sarah at Foundational Concepts. Everything I didn’t believe in like the mind and body are truly connected. That my pain was real. Yes, you read that right. My pain is real! For two years everyone told me even from the ER that this was not real, and that this was a mental issue. To seek mental health. Foundational Concepts, Sarah and everyone there for the first time ever took the time to hear my horrific journey and acknowledged that my pain was real! I wasn’t crazy!

Sarah is magical. I can’t explain everything she’s done and shown me. Patience, HUGE!! No matter what kind of condition I’m in that day, Sarah embraces me entirely. I’m not just a patient. You see it in her eyes, her taking everything you’re explaining and experiencing in. Never, not ever once discrediting anything I had to say. How I felt, thought, whatever it was, Sarah embraced it all and supported me. She has given me tools to help battle my pain and the magical part is her ability to nail exactly where the pain is coming from. Like I said magical. I still am in awe. She’s constantly working and creating a plan personally suited for me and the end result, goal is for me to be pain free.

No one has done or given me any kind of hope in the medical world other than Sarah and her team at Foundational Concepts. Don’t be hesitant like I was. You’re wasting even more precious time. If you’re battling some sort of pain or chronic pain like me, please make an appointment. A simple consultation can’t hurt. You’re already hurting, so why not give them a chance. You will not regret it. I thank the Lord for sending Sarah and her crew to help me. I’m beyond blessed. Make the call.

Julia Foster, DPT was very knowledgeable about what may help me and I felt “listened to” which is the first step in trusting the process.

I am sincerely grateful for Foundational Concepts. Sarah and her team have been my most important ally for recovery after nerve damage from a herniated disc and spinal surgery. Sarah’s knowledge, experience, and care goes beyond the pelvic floor. She informed me of pain management, therapeutic exercises, and also explained my injury in terms that helped me know the work required to heal the muscles, nerves, and my own need to create goals again. In addition, when I realized I needed more than the physical therapy provided by Sarah, I took advantage of the holistic partnership with Foundational Concepts and Worth It therapy services with Jennifer Worth. Mindfully gaining skills and using the EMDR process supported my whole recovery with chronic pain, injury, and nerve damage. All patients of spinal injuries should advocate and utilize the value of pelvic floor support and stabilization in their recovery.

“I met Jenn and Sarah in 2011 after almost a year of searching for the cause of my pelvic pain. The pain had become so severe it was disrupting both my work and home life, and had left me very frustrated because no doctor seemed to have an idea what was going on. It was very embarrassing, because it’s not something men like to talk about…to anyone.

“Thanks to the caring treatment given to me by both Jenn and Sarah, I am now able to function almost pain-free in my daily life, as long as I follow the guidance they gave me for self-care. They treated my condition respectfully, thoughtfully and professionally, and gave me the tools to manage my condition for the rest of my life. No drugs, no surgery…and no more ‘not knowing.’ I highly recommend their services to anyone who is suffering from chronic pelvic pain of any type!”

“Jennifer Cumming is the consummate professional, and is extremely knowledgeable in the physical therapy field, especially pelvic floor physical therapy. I find the office environment at Foundational Concepts to be inviting, and non-stressful. Jennifer has created a complete orthopedic wellness plan following surgery that has made an outstanding difference in my quality of life. Office visits, at-home therapeutic exercise plans, stabilization and sound advice on living well with a disability.

“Jennifer and her colleagues at Foundational Concepts are extremely compassionate and are superior quality care providers. I recommend their services to all who ask about my experiences following orthopedic surgery. Foundational Concepts is also exceptional in their efforts to coordinate care with my entire medical team in other specialties (traditional and holistic). The physical therapy and emotional support I found through Jennifer Cumming at Foundational Concepts truly changed my life for the better.”

“To anyone newly diagnosed with interstitial cystitis, the disease seems like the end. The end of our happiness, our well being, and the life we knew. I have been there and have felt that fear. But there is hope and light to be found, and I am living proof that it can and will get better.

“So much of my remarkable improvement is thanks so the physical therapy and muscle retraining I underwent under the expert and compassionate guidance of Sarah Dominguez. She will work with you at your own pace to help you understand why you are in pain and how to change the way your body functions in order to promote relief and a happier, healthier life. She has gone to such incredible lengths to help me heal, and I am at the point where I only go in for a bladder treatment once every four or five weeks. I recommend her to the highest degree!”
