About
Caroline Johnson
Founder/Owner
Caroline studied exercise science and psychology at UMass-Amherst. After graduating, Caroline, a life-long equestrian, rode professionally for a time.
After the birth of her first daughter, Caroline stepped back from the professional horse world, got her certification in Power Pilates, and taught Pilates and pre-and post-natal fitness classes. Over the course of her subsequent two pregnancies, she developed an umbilical hernia and a large 8-finger diastasis. Wanting to avoid having surgery to correct the abdominal separation, .Caroline looked into non-surgical methods to rehabilitate diastasis recti. After closing her diastasis and seeing first-hand the dramatic results that can be achieved from following a prescribed rehabilitation program, Caroline was inspired to start her own practice in order to provide other women and men with the help and resources to close their diastases and rebuild their cores.
Since then, Caroline has earned numerous other certifications in order to provide her clients with the most well-rounded and comprehensive programs possible. She holds certifications in functional pelvic floor therapy, scar release therapy, the Tupler Technique, and is a Tummy Team endorsed practitioner.
She has created several effective programs to help her clients close abdominal separations, resolve pelvic floor dysfunction, and strengthen their cores. Most recently, she launched two new revolutionary new programs. The first, "Rebuild Your Body", focuses on the postpartum population and on strengthening the body as a whole as well as healing abdominal separation and pelvic floor dysfunction. The second, Strong Core Strong Body, is designed for people needing prehab/rehab work for abdominal surgeries and to correct muscular imbalances in the body.
When Caroline is not in the office, she enjoys traveling, training for marathons and keeping up with her 3 active daughters, husband, and Boston Terrier, Mookie. Depending on the season, you can find them hiking, skiing, camping, or catching waves at local beaches.
Caroline is wonderful to work with!! Diastasis Recti feels like an impossible thing to fix, but I am confident this technique can absolutely work for you if you keep with it. Especially with someone like Caroline helping you through. :)
