Michele’s expertise in Pelvic Floor Therapy & her FeminEngery® program can help you get your foxy back!

Michele Forsberg specializes in working with women who struggle with various conditions involving pelvic and abdominal dysfunction, pain, and trauma.  She revels in helping her patients connect with their bodies and start enjoying life again. She is highly sought out by local patients as well as out-of-state and international clients for her eclectic whole-body hands-on approach. 

MIchele has been a licensed physical therapist for over 20 years and comes from a professional dance background where her love for movement and the body began. She started Align PT, in Longmont, CO in 2012.

She is also the founder of the FeminEnergy® Program for women’s empowerment and pelvic health education.

About FeminEnergy® Through Michele’s work, and her own personal experience, she began to realize how common it is for women to let pain and suffering go unnoticed, leading them to disengage from their bodies, from the natural beauty and power that resides within. Women also tend to not discuss their issues, keeping them bottled up inside. 

What Michele also realized is that many of women display a common postural pattern of physical and emotional holding in the pelvic muscles and organs, that when released, can bring about more feelings of joy, empowerment, and self-confidence.

FeminEnergy® was created out of a desire to give women a more in-depth journey into the female body than is possible in one-to-one appointments. It combines an intelligent progression of movement practices yoga, strength, dance, with pelvic education, and a deep dive into shifting the emotions and mindset that keep us playing it small. We magnify the healing nature of the program through connection and sisterhood with other women.

Licensed Acupuncturist, Massage Therapist, Traditional Chinese Herbalist, and Aesthetic Acupuncture Specialist, Terry Fox, is Northern Colorado’s leading expert in helping women feel better and look younger through ProCell MicroChanneling and Aesthetic Facial Acupuncture. 

When he was 17, Terry’s mother was diagnosed with a chronic and painful autoimmune disease – Fibromyalgia. Inspired to relieve her pain, Terry was led to the Utah College of Massage Therapy. Once graduated, he helped create the first hospital-based Massage Therapy program in the state of Wyoming. Four years after, Terry progressed into Acupuncture. In three years, he earned his Master’s Degree from the Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In 2006, he founded Artesian Spring Oriental Medicine in Fort Collins, Colorado. 

Terry also has served as Secretary for the Acupuncture Association of Colorado, and was voted Best Acupuncturist 2015 and 2016 according to The Experience Pros radio show. He’s been exclusively featured in Northern Colorado Medical and Wellness Magazine and Regenerate Magazine. Terry has also been invited to speak on popular podcasts like “Intimate Conversations” with Allana Pratt and “A Doctor’s Perspective” with Dr. Justin Trosclair. And he’s been hosting his own podcast since 2017 – The Get Foxy Show. And, He continues to train, learn, and master his craft.

Many of Terry’s teachers are internationally known masters of Cosmetic Acupuncture and Classical Chinese Medicine – Ron Rosen, Denise Ellinger, Martha Lucas, Wudang Chen, Dr. Ping Zhang, Michelle Gellis, and Mary Elizabeth Wakefield. Terry’s focus is helping women feel and look their natural best through Aesthetic Acupuncture.

He leads and inspires women to reconnect with their own innate healing capacity, return to their authentic self, and revive their radiant joy for living. Terry believes each patient is a precious child of God and should be treated accordingly. He’s passionate about helping women manifest their own inherent beauty by fostering their health and wellbeing. Terry has been described as “knowledgeable, caring, and professional,” and he strives continually to live up to that description. Terry doesn’t just treat “skin deep,” he sees and works on a deeper, holistic level. Patients come to him for his expertise, and they trust him because of his gentle nature and keen intuition. 

Botox® is a poisonous mask that we put on to hide the face we’ve earned.
