If you are looking for a physical therapist who is very kind and deeply cares about your recovery, I highly recommend Kathy Pepper. She has made a positive difference in my life and I am extremely grateful. " ~ Andrea Johnson~“Kathy at Empowering Wellness has helped me so much with healing from my breast cancer trauma. The overall wellness from physical therapy for the cording to the lymphatic drainage has been phenomenal. Oh yes! And the Pilates Class was strengthening and healing "~Kim“Kathleen Pepper is the best, seriously without a doubt changed my life❤️” ~Susan“Kathy Pepper is not only an EXTREMELY knowledgeable, highly educated professional in physical therapy, Pilates, personal training, and all around women’s health, but she is incredibly (can I say incredibly twice - that’s how much I want to stress this point) incredibly kind, understanding, supportive, and overall encouraging. Kathy listens and she will take as much time as you need to help you become the best woman you can be!
I started taking Pilates with Kathy over two years ago as I was struggling with osteoporosis. I had worked out, but my bone density was getting worse, I needed help. Kathy looked at my reports and knew exactly what I needed and what I needed to do. Kathy was very clear, not only with my Pilates program (she incorporated her knowledge of physical therapy into my Pilates program as she knew what a person with my condition needed to help gain the upmost performance in my Pilates) but what I should and shouldn’t do during my daily life (exercise, daily life activities, to even nutrition). She always is going that extra mile - not because she has to but because that is who Kathy is! She is the best!!
After two+ years, I am happy/proud and so very thankful to Kathy to say that I’m stronger than ever before. I can do so many things that I never dreamed I could physically do with my osteoporosis. It was hard work, but Kathy was right there with me answering every question, even when I was unsure. With Kathy’s kind, caring, reassuring, and encouraging words, instructions, and overall supportiveness I did it and today I can honestly say, without a doubt, I would not be where I am today (stronger and even healthier) without Kathy!
Kathy Pepper is a gem. She is one you can trust that will absolutely do her very best for you!! “ ~Patti K
