Just like the tides, healing comes with natural ebbs and flows. My practice honors that rhythm, guiding you with compassion through every stage of your journey.

I believe healing is a mind-body journey, one that honors both the science of the body and the spirit of the individual. My practice is rooted in compassion, evidence-based care, and the belief that you deserve to feel safe, supported, and empowered.

I provide client-centered treatments tailored to your needs and a nurturing space to restore balance and reclaim your vitality. This is more than therapy… it’s about reconnecting with your body and finding confidence in your healing process, honoring your journey and thriving in the meaningful activities you love most.

Makayla Meistrell, OTR/L, CHT, RYT-400 

Makayla Meistrell is an Occupational Therapist, Certified Hand and Upper Extremity Therapist, Pelvic Health Practitioner, and Certified Yoga Teacher.

Her journey began over eight years ago in orthopedic rehabilitation, where she has supported countless clients in regaining independence and strength to return to a meaningful life. She has since developed a deep focus on pelvic health and the importance of addressing dysfunction to promote a better quality of life.

She has also found a powerful connection between the upper extremities and the pelvic floor — how our hands, posture, and core are deeply intertwined through fascia, breath, and movement. With training in yoga, she weaves these disciplines together to offer a truly integrative approach to healing.

She is passionate about helping people who have been told to just live with their pain or dysfunction, and invites them to deeply explore the messages of pain and signals from their nervous system — to ultimately transform their life. Outside of work, you’ll find her surfing, flowing through yoga, or hiking with her pup and boyfriend.
