EMPOWER

My treatment philosophy is to provide customized patient-centered care that improves an individual's overall strength and mobility.  As healthcare practitioners, we need to do more than just address the current problem.  I believe we should look at the individual as a whole; that true sustainable change is achieved by improving the person's overall strength, their resiliency, their health and their performance in both life and sports.   I want to address the symptoms to get you moving and feeling better, address the imbalances that led to the symptoms and give you the knowledge to continue to progress.  Successful physical therapy requires listening and education.  I believe in listening to my clients and educating them about all aspects of therapy, to empower them to take an active role in their care and health.  The plan of care will include active and passive therapeutic techniques chosen based on my clinical experience and evidence-based practice, but more importantly it will be personalized to fit your lifestyle and meets your goals.  

As an experienced physical therapist, I am a musculoskeletal expert, however my experience has also taught me how impactful sleep, nutrition, stress and joy are on pain, recovery and overall health.  Education on these components have become a part of the care I provide, but I wanted to expand my knowledge and be able to explore these areas more with my clients.  To this end, I became a Health Coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.   The year long course work, further opened my eyes to the many facets of life that can impact an individual's overall wellness and sense of contentment. 

I want to help you achieve your vision of healthy, fit and happy!
