Hector has made it so I can lift and run without having to pay a ton of money. He truly cares for his clients and wants them to have pain free life. He is the ONLY person i wanted to see after a recent car crash. My neck was better within hours of seeing him. More...

Love Yin Wellness ! I have been going to Hector for the whole summer for PT on my knee. He is knowledgeable and makes getting fit fun. He also has helped me with neck and hip problems. They are a must if you are looking to recover from an injury. More...

I'm almost tempted to not write this review, because I don't want everyone overwhelming the best massage therapist I've ever had! But Emily is AMAZING! I've been getting regular massages for years, and they didn't seem to do much for my chronic pain until I started seeing Emily. You should go to her. Always. Just please leave some appointment availability for me. More...

I have been using YIN for about 6 months and have been a client of Emily for over a year. Emily is a Massage Therapist. She specializes in all areas of massage but I specifically use her for her deep tissue work. I have had significant pain associated with neck troubles that she has been very effective at successfully addressing. Give her a try she listens well and is talented enough to provide relief.

I have a lower back injury I manage with a combo of chiropractic care and massage. I was so lucky to find Emily, who has been a key component of keeping my back and body healthy for several years. She is skilled in several modalities and very knowledgeable on the various techniques. It’s especially hard to find someone who can do deep sports massage type work and she’s the best. And she’s one of the nicest people I know! :) More...

I can not express how grateful I am for the amazing care that I was given at Yin by Hector. I injured my knee training Jiu Jitsu and due to his extensive knowledge and experience Hector was able to immediately pin point the problem and set me on a corrective course. I expected to be out of action for awhile, but Hector was able to get me back on the mat almost immediately and back to 100% in 1/2 the time that I had expected. A huge thank you to the team at Yin, who was amazing and could not have been nicer, more accommodating or more incredible. More...

I have spent many months doing ACL Knee Rehab at Yin Wellness with Hector. I looked around at many Physical Therapy locations covered by my insurance and disliked all of them. When I found Yin and saw that they offered affordable pricing for therapy as well alternative options for recovery I was in (Graston, dry needling, game ready, cryotherapy, etc). It was great to find that Hector is knowledgeable, has a great sense of humor AND is a strong athlete himself. He has the knowledge and want to push you but also the sensitivity to understand that you may have limitations and other injuries that have occurred along the way. He finds many fun ways to do exercises and always keeps it fresh. I have enjoyed my PT with him and will continue to have appointments long after my recovery is done. I also went to many appointments for my neck and found the rehab techniques and the exercises he recommends helped tremendously. More...

I LOVE YIN, there really is no place like it. Lauren is the best! Her extensive knowledge for nutrition has helped me change internal body functions. Her nutrition plan is realistic and personalized for you. She really digs deep to get to the root of how to achieve your goals. You don’t have to eat chicken, broccoli and rice anymore and you can enjoy a nice glass of wine. YIN is a complete game changer and Lauren will change your life! More...

This facility is top notch, and the staff is amazing! They have so much passion for what they do. I went in with a bunch of health issues and their nutritionist helped me find the right diet for my life style and within a week my energy levels improved and I was feeling so much better and after that I started a strength and conditioning program and that, has been the best investment I have done for myself. I highly recommend this place.

Note to first timers: it's the building in the back of the parking lot! Wonderful new facility with friendly staff members & therapists. Emily provides a customised, professional massage experience and is super attentive. The two-story building allows separation of the massage rooms from the rest of the institute, and it was an extremely relaxing experience. Highly recommended! More...

I found out about Yin Wellness on Instagram. From the very first contact they were helpful and informative. I sent my hubby in, who has severe back and knee problems/pain and they have slowly worked with him to rebuild his muscles and strength. I then started going to them for tendinitis. They have given me exercises to do at home but have also corrected my form for using some of the machines at the gym. I’m now using them for nutritional purposes! The metabolism test I took there informed me I need to eat more to lose weight! I can easily recommend Yin Wellness for a multitude of healthy recovery services. More...

I went into this studio after hearing about it from a friend and it was such a great experience. Hector asked me right away if I was feeling any pain anywhere to which I told him nothing in particular except for back pain due to sitting a desk all day. He did so many different things while I was there including other things just to relax and decompress. I left with my back feeling 10 times better and the rest of my body felt refreshed as well. I can’t wait to go back. It’s also extremely inexpensive compared to other places I’ve been. I highly recommend giving this place a chance! More...

I was referred by one of the owners of Laionebuilt Fitness, Ron Tongaonevai , to YIN Wellness. Was training for 5 months for an upcoming rugby tournament in Utah, 3 weeks before the tournament I tore my hamstring. After 2 weeks I decided to try and run at practice but injured my hamstring again (Thinking it would heal in 2 weeks). Being the person I am I still wanted to play in the tournament. Knowing I wasn’t gonna be close to 100% I reached out to Hector from YIN the week of the tournament. That man is a miracle worker! He also knew I wouldn’t be 100% but he worked on my hamstring to a point where I could compete. Thanks Hector for taking care of me and instilling that confidence even though I knew I could’ve made it worse or not be able to run again. I would refer Hector to anyone! Thanks again! He really cares about his clients and will do 300% of what you want. More...

I’ve been seeing Hector for the past two months to help with some old injuries that I had been struggling with. When I decided to come see Hector, I was at my wits end – I’d been stretching regularly, seeing a manual therapist, doing yoga, and lifting. I was seeing improvement with my injuries, but there was still something that wasn’t quite right. I saw improvement after only two sessions. I am very impressed with Hector’s understanding of the muscles in the body, as well as his ability to provide valuable information to help correct problems. Thanks, Hector! More...
