Welcome!
A word on our chairs
Our current chairs have a 500lb max capacity. The arms are ~ 27" apart. The seat is 22" deep (from your back to the back of your knees) and is 20.5" from the floor. If you have a suggestion for better chairs, let us know. You can email us or submit feedback through our virtual feedback box HERE.
If you’re not sure our chairs will be comfortable for you, feel free to email us at info@casobu.org and we can set up a time for you to see and try them out before scheduling an appointment.
We welcome all bodies to our clinic. We will never comment on or monitor your size. We don’t think foot pain, back pain, pms, or any other condition is magically improved by weight loss.
We will not comment on or monitor your size.
We know that weight stigma causes terrible harm.
We don’t think foot pain, back pain, asthma or any other health issue is necessarily caused by weight.
We’ve treated thousands of thin people with chronic pain and thousands of fat people with chronic pain.
We don’t think weight loss automatically improves any health condition.
We know that the BMI is bad science but is still used to shame people and deny care.
We know that diet-culture and anti-fat bias are rampant in ‘wellness’ communities and are barriers to healthcare for all bodies.
We know that people of all sizes suffer from disordered eating.
We recognize that humans have always existed in a variety of shapes and sizes.
We are doing our best to welcome a wide range of bodies to this clinic.
