ATTUNEMENT Wellness

I was in the final weeks of training for a marathon when I started running experiencing lower back pain that made it difficult enough to run that I wasn’t sure I would make it to the start line of the race. When I stumbled across Attunement Wellness it was a last ditch effort to resolve the stiffness that threatened my race. I had three sessions with Dr. Brunner in a week and the results were fantastic. She focused on relieving the pressure in my back by addressing the tightness in my legs and glutes, which I’d become so acclimatized to after years of running that I hadn’t imagined they were the cause of my back pain. I had some mild soreness after the first session, which Dr. Brunner assured me was normal. By the end of the second session I felt more hopeful. My lower back pain was significantly reduced. After the third session I felt a transformative unwinding of tension in my posterior chain that is difficult to describe- I’d been living with so much stored tightness that reduced my flexibility but because it had been slow to build over years of running I wasn’t even entirely aware of it until it felt better. Both Dr. Brunner and Leslie at the front desk were incredibly warm and reassuring. I absolutely love running and training for races but naturally with high mileage, aches and pains accumulate. I’ve found many practitioners to be dismissive of issues I experience while running advising only to reduce running rather than working with me to be able to feel best at what I love to do. Because both Dr. Brunner and Leslie are athletes (dance and running) they really understood my desire to perform and want to feel my best while continuing to push my body. 2 weeks later I ran a PR at the marathon, qualified for NY and Boston, and raced a negative split- best of all I felt great while I was running and did not experience any back pain at all. I’m so grateful to Dr. Brunner and would highly recommend her to anyone experiencing pain but especially to any any athletes or active people who might be in need of a tune up.

I have been a patient of Dr. Danielle Brunner at Attunement Wellness for several weeks. I was about to give up on finding anyone who could provide relief for an extremely painful neck and shoulder. Dr. Brunner spent a great deal of time with me to explore a treatment plan and care regimen. Through electroacupuncture and cupping therapy she has been able to release extremely tight muscles knots and skeletal posture and is providing much needed and appreciated relief. Dr, Brunner takes a wholistic approach to health and wellness and she has helped me immeasurable through her therapeutic practice.,

Attunement Wellness is filled with compassionate, skilled, and wonderful people. Most of my appointments have been with Dr. Brunner and she is amazing. I'm a 54 year old marathon runner. Every time I have something start to hurt, I go immediately to Dr. Brunner and she gets me back on track, usually in just a visit or two. She does not back down from a challenge. She works hard to figure out the problem and get it solved. I've also had other visits at attunement for massage and chiopractic work, and everyone there is an outstanding healer. I strongly recommend giving Attunement Wellness a try.
