Intrinsic Physical Therapy & Pilates

Fantastic experience: I had surgery to repair a lacerated anterior tibialis tendon and went through three months of therapy with a different PT who helped with regaining my mobility. Once insurance stopped paying for PT, I started looking for a private Pilates instructor so that I could return to group Pilates classes and hopefully improve my strength and range of motion. Fortunately, I found much more than that with Christina. By our second session I had increased my range of motion significantly. And a month later, I was back to normal on the tennis court. She is knowledgable, personable, and a great communicator. I love the one on one sessions and highly recommend Intrinsic Physical Therapy.

Fantastic experience: My 15 y/o daughter has been coming to Christina for about 5 months, and absolutely loves it! She rides horses competitively and says it has really made a difference in her riding. She looks forward to it every time, and it has made her so strong physically and mentally on and off the horse. I recommend Christina for anyone wanting to become stronger. My daughter had ACL repair surgery 9 months before seeing Christina. She is a perfect partner for recovery and improvement in a sport or fitness.

Fantastic experience: Christina has been amazing at detangling my lifelong back issues and improving my pain levels, posture, strength and flexibility. I am so thankful for her knowledge and help!

Fantastic experience: Christina is kind, extremely knowledgeable, and great at educating you about your body. She will get your body moving the way it is meant to. I first went to her as a physical therapist for back pain and later hired her as a trainer. Give her a call, it will be the best decision you've made!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely adore Christina. She is a fantastic Pilates trainer - and she is not only a personal trainer, but a wonderful physical therapist as well. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. During our Pilates sessions, she focuses on my abilities and tailors my sessions so that they are effective and challenging. If there are movements that are beyond my level, she quickly adjusts the exercise, but she mixes up each session and keeps it vigorous! Also, I recently pulled my back out, so I set up some physical therapy sessions with Christina. She knew exactly where the problem was, focused on it, and I was back to normal in no time! She is genuinely interested in my fitness goals by offering encouragement, along with a practical program for me to hit my goals. After every session, I have a renewed energy level, along with increased flexibility and strength! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a personal Pilates trainer or Physical Therapist.

Fantastic experience: A few months ago, I was experiencing severe pain in my neck/occipital area. I have degenerative disc disease and have struggled with neck pain over the past decade. Sometimes it’s manageable, sometimes it’s not. This was a time where it was not. I have tried every therapy under the sun, but the only modality that has actually worked has been dry needling. I moved to the Frisco area about 3 years ago and it was time for me to find someone in the area that could join me on this journey. Christina Meyers had all the designations that I needed (PT, MSPT, COMT, CPT, CertDN), and she was within 1.5 miles of my home. I decided to book a consult and give her a try. My first appointment with Christina was very thorough and extremely compassionate. Christina listened to me, took notes, took measurements, and she watched me walk, sit, and move around. My chief complaint was severe pain in C1 and C2 area of my spine, multiple painful spasms daily, and limited mobility of my head. My pain level was a 6-7. Christina’s approach was simple. First and foremost, give your neck a break with support, heat, and small moves. Stop the stretches and all other exercises. She explained a few things to me about my C1 and C2 area that no one had ever told me before, and it made a lot of sense. I did everything she recommended. Christina showed me tiny moves that were way more effective than the daily stretches I was previously doing. I bought a neck collar and while I worked, I would wear it a few hours, which provided immediate relief. I bought a cervical pillow for night and started to wake up with very little neck pain. I was seeing some relief. I have had 6 appointments with Christina and can say that my neck feels better than it has in years. I have had 5 days in a row of zero pain in my neck. My pain level is at a 0 . My mobility has improved greatly. We have more to go, but I can’t remember the last time I had zero pain in my neck. I highly recommend Christina. Her experience, insight, and knowledge of the body is extremely valuable, and Christina herself is a joy and delight to visit. Her empathy, warmth, and listening skills cannot be taught – they are who she is to the core. I truly look forward to every visit.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had Christina both as a Pilates instructor and for physical therapy and she really is amazing. She was able to help me with some lower back pain as well as give me some exercises I was able to do at home. In addition to that she was able to help me work on my form specifically around my core so that I can ensure I was doing my Pilates classes correctly and getting the most benefit. Highly recommend her for both PT and Pilates.

Fantastic experience: Safe and clean environment, motivational, professional, very knowledgeable, and pleasant to work with.

Fantastic experience: Christina is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I’m already seeing tangible results after 3 sessions! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Christina is a blessing. I had a torn hamstring with bruising and acute sciatica due to a fall. I am in better shape and completely healed thanks to Christina and her amazing ability to heal my injury. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️

Fantastic experience: Christina is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! I took Pilates classes with her and she made me feel great after each class every time.

Fantastic experience: I recently attended a Bulletproof your Back Workshop at Club Pilates where Christina is a Certified Pilates Instructor!! I learned soooo much in this workshop!! I’ve been dealing with lower back/nerve pain in my leg for years now and I was able to finally get back to a place where I could start attending classes (very slowly!) The instructors at Club Pilates have taught me how to work out my whole body and protect my back at the same time! It is addicting! Christina gave such great info about how to protect and build from the inside out and not the “show” muscles - she is awesome! Loved the class! and I put it into practice every time I walk in the door!

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Christina after being worked on by chiropractors, acupuncturist and other physical therapist. Unfortunately she was my last resort, I found her through a friend, but she has been the biggest lifesaver. All the other people I saw tried to treat me but nobody listened to me. Christina took her time with me and taught me things about my body that I didn’t know. She helped me get through the most difficult back pain that I have experienced and I would recommend her to absolutely anyone I knew. This woman knows her stuff and you’ll know from the moment you meet her that she has your best intentions in mind.

Fantastic experience: Christina is excellent at what she does. I recently had rotator cuff surgery and I’ve been receiving Physical Therapy and personal training to regain range of motion and strength. Christina has customized workouts to target my specific needs. She has helped me progress through shoulder therapy exercises and taught me so much in the process. The workouts have been challenging but fun. I enjoy every minute of my sessions with her and I am making progress each week. Whether your goals are improving your Pilates practice, overall fitness or rehabilitation from injury or chronic pain, Christina can help you.

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Christina! I have had problems with knee injuries for decades and she helped me recover from my most recent issue. She handled my rehab beautifully. She has a wealth of knowledge, giving me confidence to progress even if I was scared. She is gentle and kind but also able to help you push yourself toward health in a safe way. I’m sure this knee will need more TLC in the future and I am so glad I have Christina as a resource when I need her.

Fantastic experience: I started privates Pilates classes with Christina several months ago after two back surgeries. Being a physician, I was very concerned about having someone who could help me and would know how to prevent further injury. Christine has been perfect! She is very knowledgeable about strengthening and balance which are key to getting stronger without injury. She always listens to my input and adjusts as needed. I really had little knowledge about Pilates and have been amazed at how much improvement I have had. The workouts are challenging but not overwhelming like some personal training sessions I’ve had where I hurt the entire time. Pilates seems more like fun than training and still I have seen more improvement than ever with traditional personal training. I have had several personal trainers over the years. No one has helped me progress so quickly and safely! She is professional, personal and fun. Thanks so much Christina!

Fantastic experience: Christina is an amazing Pilates instructor. I’ve been going to her classes for six months. Her knowledge, expertise and caring attitude are what keeps me coming back. She is fun and I love the music she plays. Christina makes her self aware of injuries or limitations we have, and will always give us options. Just when I think she has taught me all there is, she throws in a new exercise or two, which teaches me how to use my body in a whole new way. She is very attentive to her class. She watches us to ensure we are using the correct form. I love Christina and always look forward to her next class.

Fantastic experience: I started attending Pilates classes with Christina over a year ago to regain my strength, balance, and flexibility after a hip surgery. She is extremely knowledgeable in the mechanics of the body and able to identify compensations and correct technique. All of her classes are thoughtfully planned and her cueing is spot on. She also makes her classes fun and inspirational. I am so thankful for Christina’s unique skills and encouragement on my wellness journey. She is truly a blessing!

Fantastic experience: Christina helped me SO much as I recovered from an Achilles tendon rupture surgery. The one on one attention I received from her helped me to quickly make progress and get me back on the tennis court! She really knows her stuff and does a great job preparing a full picture recovery plan for her patients.

Fantastic experience: Christina worked with me to strengthen my core to help with my back and neck pain. I am 60+ years old so being able to hold my body upright is very important. Christina helped me regain confidence in exercising. My body moves freely since she began working with me. I even feel a couple of inches taller. I highly recommend Christina and know she can help you reach your full potential. Give her a call today-don’t wait!!
