Sapien Fitness Clinic Biomechanics & Bodywork

I searched for a trainer that uses Functional Patterns in my area after going to an FP practitioner in Austin and loving it. Milo is very knowledgeable and with his help I've been able to manage and heal a lot of the pain I experience in my hips and back following a bad ankle break a few years ago. I go rather infrequently due to the amount I travel for work. I'm able to use these techniques to manage my pain and I can see all the benefits in repairing and balancing different muscles, my overall form, and technique. I LOVE the times when I see Milo and I'm so grateful I found him!

I had a very positive experience working with Milo and highly recommend Sapien Fitness to almost anyone. I’m a relatively active person in my late 40s who occasionally had lower back issues, morning aches getting out of bed, and difficulty recovering from physical weekend work. I could function with these inconveniences, but had concerns that as I got older they would get worse. Milo immediately recognized my hips weren’t moving optimally. This was likely due to minor past injuries that caused my body to get out-of-balance. Some of my muscles were overcompensating for others that were underutilized. Over the course of 6-7 sessions and 5-6 months we worked on techniques and exercises to move correctly and safely develop my core. I’ve been feeling really good the last few months, but more importantly I now have a set of home exercises tailored to my specific needs. I know why these exercises benefit me, I’m confident my technique is correct, and I’m planning to continue them well into old age. Many could benefit from the expertise and coaching Sapien Fitness provides. I believe my chances for injury have been reduced and I’m using less effort to move. Thank you Milo!

These two are the best. Milo and Sophia balance their expertise with empathy in a way that makes each session feeling challenging, productive, and empowering. I originally came in for persistent lower back pain, which was gone after several sessions. After working with them for almost a year, I feel so much stronger doing the things I love like yoga, hiking, and skiing. The combined sessions (with both of them) are fantastic, it really feels like a customized and comprehensive approach to your health and fitness. Well worth the time and investment!

Milo and Sophia are so helpful and skilled in their knowledge of the body. I saw physical therapists for almost 2 years postpartum and still experienced quite a bit of chronic pain, particularly in my back. My physical therapists said they had done all they could do. I was diagnosed with arthritis in my back, and after seeing milo weekly for less than half the time of physical therapists, my arthritis pain was literally gone. I refer anyone I know experiencing chronic pain here.

As a retired military veteran who was injured severely in Iraq (gunshot wound through right shoulder), I have been dealing with ongoing issues in my right arm and upper back for about 15 years. After trying various treatments with little success, I decided to give Sapien Fitness Clinic a try. I am absolutely thrilled with the progress I have made working with Milo and Sophia. Their expertise in understanding my unique situation and developing a tailored program has accelerated my progress dramatically. The combination of their knowledge, empathy, and dedication has not only helped me regain functionality but also improved my overall quality of life. In just a few short months, I have experienced a significant decrease in pain and an increase in mobility. I am incredibly grateful to Milo and Sophia for their hard work and would highly recommend their clinic to anyone seeking effective, lasting relief from physical issues.

After an active life I was presented multiple physical challenges(74) primary idiopathic peripheral neuropathy and vestibular migraine. Other therapies have left me stronger, more balanced but I still had gait issues. Working with Milo has made me more confident in my body’s capacity to be more upright and centers. Through the focused intensely specific work, supported by Sophia’s neuromuscular therapy I am more confident . As a team we have reset my internal gyroscope and devised ways around neurological blocks. I have loved the challenge of learning a different approach to positive ageing through movement

Milo and Sophia at Sapien Fitness made my epic backpacking trip in South America possible. I had two recent invasive foot surgeries before the trip, and I knew needed help to get my feet and body in shape. Five months before the trip, I told Sapien I was looking to get stronger and more confident with my balance in the short term, and then function better as I get older. I have never been interested in a regular gym, and I felt their holistic philosophy aligned with mine. Bottom line is my extremely challenging trip was a grand success carrying a heavy pack for multiple days on untrodden steep and exposed terrain in snowy and windy weather. Now I look forward to continuing to improve all aspects of my physical lifestyle with Milo and Sophia!

Great experience with Sapien Fitness. Went it with lower back pain and since I started there the my back has improved 10-fold in just in just 8 sessions . Milo is very good at what he does and pushes you to improve yourself.
