Optimize U has been managing my hormones since 2018. Perimenopause and Menopause are VERY real! :). Aging is inevitable….feeling crappy doesn’t have to be! The providers are excellent, and the staff treats you like family!

Optimize U is my favorite place to go when it comes to recovering or getting a good sauna session in!The thing puts the icing on the cake for me though is their cold plunge tub has helped me with my inflammation I get in my knees and it has its own built in discipline/mind fortifier to it if you stay consistent with it!Problems with a joint pain take a plunge for a month and experience the change!Having a bad day? Go take a plunge and you'll be shivering with a smile before you get to your car, guaranteed!The people are so friendly and welcoming, as well they are informed on their products and has the ability to answer questions you might have about certain things such as hormone treatments!If you're thinking about getting healthier physically or mentally or already a workout person but don't have a recovery tool, I would recommend this place 100%!

Amazing results and everyone here is really helpful. Couldn't ask for a better group of people for help with health concerns. If you're experiencing any hormonal symptoms, get yourself down there asap. Four weeks after starting and I'm already feeling a lot better!

This place is amazing! Jerry and the rest of the staff are very professional and friendly! They genuinely care about their clients! They don’t push their products on you and are very accommodating when it comes to being able to demo what services they offer!I originally came to Revive due to wanting to know more about my body with the substantial blood work tests they offer, and I’m glad I did. They are very knowledgeable and will help you to be aware of how you’re functioning without being overbearing m. They take their time to offer recommendations both holistic and if necessary supplemented.Now I’ve been recovering from a surgical procedure and I personally have benefitted from the cryotherapy along with the compression therapy! These have been pivotal for me to reduce my swelling, pain, fatigue and promote healing! Swelling can be both physically and mentally taxing so I’m so grateful to Revive.I look forward to trying their other services in the future including the float therapy and the infrared sauna as there’s also research that backs the benefits of these as well!Thanks Revive!

I have been under the care of Optimize U since they began. Awesome group, good at what they do. They have grown much bigger from what they began but the personalized care has NEVER changed. Care from Optimize U will focus on YOU and not what "average" or "Normal" is. They will Optimize YOU.
