Function & Beyond is a consulting firm for clients of all ages facing varying degrees of physical limitations. We work with individuals who have suffered an injury, face challenges associated with aging and/or live with diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's or ALS to promote personal independence by providing modification options for their home or work space.
WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
We have successfully put in place the primary recommendation from Function & Beyond for our home in Santa Rosa: installing grab bars alongside the door that enters our garage from the kitchen. They have made stepping down into the garage so much safer! Included in the comprehensive assessment of our home was the advice to place another grab bar: for entering and exiting the hot tub. That is next on our list to do. Thank you for the thorough and very appropriate counsel.

I live in a Loft in San Francisco with a metal spiral staircase. Due to a slip on a step and old furniture in my 740 square foot unit, I found myself to be very uncomfortable with my bed and sitting situation.
Jessica came to my Loft. She took photos, measurements and we discussed issues and the fact that I could not make a big investment. Several photos of chairs were sent to me in the followup report within my budget. I looked at all chairs and selected one which seems to be helping in my living room. For the bedroom, several pillows were suggested that I purchased and are helping as a fix. I also received lighting suggestions and stair covering ideas.
The job was thorough, well thought out and Jessica is a pleasure to work with.
