Personalized wellness in Austin, TX — integrating Foundation Training™, Strength Coaching, and Lifestyle support to address chronic pain and help you reconnect with your body
Experience the freedom that comes from living pain-free, in a body that feels strong & aligned
I’m a movement specialist, Foundation Training™ instructor, and wellness coach devoted to helping you build a body that supports your life.
With a background in sports science, massage therapy, and functional strength training, my approach blends deep expertise with personalized care — so you can move with confidence, reduce pain, and feel at home in your body again.
I know what it’s like to feel disconnected from your body—to push through pain, ignore the signs, and wonder if feeling good is just for other people. My path to healing wasn’t linear, but it taught me something invaluable:
Your body knows how to heal when you give it the right support.
Using Foundation Training™, posture correction, and strength-focused bodywork, I help you relieve chronic pain and build a resilient body.
Fuel your body, balance your energy, and feel your best through personalized nutrition guidance and simple lifestyle shifts
Targeted bodywork that melts tension, calms the nervous system, and restores ease where your body needs it most.
Chronic pain, fatigue, and stress don’t just affect individuals, they ripple into the workplace.
Investing in your team’s wellness improves focus, reduces sick days, and builds a culture where people feel supported, energized, and ready to perform.
“After 3 months of hard work, I lost about 14lbs and rid myself of my habitual poor food choices. I whole heartedly recommend Tabitha for helping with dietary changes.”
Jordan L.
“Deciding to work with Tabitha on Foundation Training is one of the best choices I have made in my wellness journey. FT has helped me learn how to properly support my body in my daily activities and grow stronger and more flexible at the same time.”
Leslie B.
“I've been dealing with a shoulder injury for a couple of years that has seriously changed the biomechanics of my shoulder and was causing a lot of neck problems as well. I tried a bunch of therapies, but nothing made much of a change. I knew that the problem was related to posture and the muscles not firing properly, so Foundation Training made a lot of sense. I had used the early FT stuff and often recommended it for back pain, but I'm glad I got some help in finding targeted exercises. In a single session, Tabitha was able to walk me through some exercises that significantly changed the function of my shoulder and completely freed up my neck.”
Summer E.
“My year long right shoulder pain which was hard to diagnose and resolve is now completely healed. My overall strength has increased, my core awareness has vastly improved. I would highly recommend anyone wishing more freedom of movement, stronger core, better posture, and relief/healing from physical pain or immobility to set up a session with Tabitha and get to know her and her well supported approach.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect from my first session?
Your first session begins with a brief intake to understand your goals, pain history, and movement patterns. From there, we’ll move into guided exercises or hands-on therapy tailored to your needs.
Do I need to be in pain to book a session?
Not at all. Many clients come in to improve posture, build strength, or prevent future issues. This work is just as effective for optimizing performance and mobility as it is for pain relief.
What is Foundation Training™?
Foundation Training™ is a movement method designed to decompress the spine, strengthen the posterior chain, and restore natural movement patterns. It’s especially helpful for chronic pain, poor posture, and desk-bound bodies — common challenges for many Austinites balancing active lifestyles with long hours at a desk or on the go.
How is this different from physical therapy or chiropractic care?
While there’s some overlap, NewLeaf offers a more integrated and movement-based approach — combining postural correction, functional strength, body awareness, and lifestyle coaching for long-term results. All sessions are personalized and take place here in Austin, TX.
Do you offer packages or memberships?
Yes — multi-session packages are available at a discounted rate. These are ideal for clients who want ongoing support and sustainable progress. Ask during your discovery call for options available in the Austin area or online.
What should I wear to a session?
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in (think yoga or workout gear). Most sessions involve a mix of movement, stretching, and hands-on work, so flexibility is key.
Are virtual sessions available if I’m not in Austin?
Yes. Foundation Training™ and lifestyle coaching can be done virtually. Strength training sessions may also be offered online, depending on your space and equipment.
Is massage therapy included in every session?
Massage therapy is available as a standalone service or as part of a personalized wellness plan. We’ll collaborate on what’s best for your body and your goals — whether you’re here in Austin or working together remotely.
