Anastasia (Stasi) Palaia and Foundations is/are wonderful! I went in thinking that I was getting an after-surgery evaluation and consult following a major recent surgery, but Dr Palaia offered so SO much more. In just a first session, she quickly assessed and explained to me a number of complex factors in my musculature, movement, diet, and lifestyle that had interrelated to cause pain in different areas of my body - some of which had been ongoing for years. In a very accessible and empathetic way, she also explained a number of the complexities to me with realistic immediate and longer-term recommendations. Dr Palaia's and Foundations' holistic approach and lens to viewing the body and healing is somewhat rare, in my own experience. Unlike other recent healthcare/medical experiences that had gaslit my very serious medical condition and pain - as well as neglected to provide guidance towards my longer term healing post-surgery - it was both helpful and validating to hear Dr Palaia explain what had been causing the physical changes, sensations, and discomfort that I had been experiencing after my surgery. I deeply appreciated the detail-oriented time and care that she took in assessing what could be going on, providing some immediate treatment, and offering future options. I would highly recommend Dr Palaia and Foundations to anyone - particularly to folks post-major surgery or birth, but really anyone searching for a holistic and compassionate approach to physical therapy and whole-body healing.
