What I Do
I have a holistic, intuitive, and symptom-specific approach to your pain and dysfunction. Our first meeting will reflect my dedication to your healing and to improving the quality of your life through our work together.
What are your personal goals? What motivates you? What are the possibilities for your life without pain?
First and foremost, I listen to you. I take the time to understand the whole picture. We explore what has worked, what modalities you’ve tried, and then we dig into why you are still suffering. A PT appointment with me isn’t your typical ice, massage, and a run through exercises. I rely on my PT expertise, fascial release skills, and add in cutting edge technologies that use frequency and your own bodies infrared to get further faster. You will always be greeted with a genuine interest in getting you to a place where you can live your best. My attention is focused entirely on you for the duration of our session. In this way, we can more effectively resolve your pain and assist you into a healthier, more joyful state of being.
Comprehensive Evaluation and Treatment
In our first meeting together, I take the time to learn about your history of injuries, falls, work-related postures, and past surgical procedures. We combine your unique history with current symptoms, and this creates direction for our evaluation. Patients often come in with a specific problem, but we uncover past injuries or sources of chronic strain, which are contributing to the current issue.
Our bodies at the cellular level “remember” and store the trauma of our lives in our fascia, a “roadmap” which untreated, can produce a painful and structural rigidity over time. The focus of treatment is to address and release this “pull and drag” in our fascia, so that we can successfully align ourselves with gravity, move with greater ease, and experience an overall feeling of wellness. When used in combination with bio-energetic work (FSM), our bodies can heal at a much deeper level and release old patterns that no longer serve us.
Common conditions treated successfully are:
- Back and Neck Pain/ Sciatica
- Myofascial Pain
- Fibromyalgia
- Concussion
- Headaches and Decreased Ability to Concentrate
- TMJ, Jaw Pain, and Dysfunction
- Regional Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
- PTSD/Anxiety/ Panic Attacks
- Shingles
- Vagal Nerve Dysfunction
- Sleep Issues
Together, we design a treatment program that’s optimal for your body — and give you techniques and tools that will serve you now and in the future.
Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM)
Frequency Specific Microcurrent is a non-invasive, painless, and natural treatment that employs low-level (micro amperage) electrical current to provide pain relief without drugs or surgery.
Combining my clinical and academic expertise, , I am able to specifically pinpoint the tissue and condition causing the symptom, then accelerate healing using a frequency device that can be used for a myriad of conditions, often difficult to treat with traditional therapies. These other therapies may help temporarily, but they often don’t heal the underlying cause. I’ve found that FSM decreases nerve pain, quickly softens rigid muscle spasm and trigger points, reduces anxiety, and promotes as more relaxed and balanced mental state.
In addition, FSM addresses the central nervous system, which is often responsible for the chronicity of pain symptoms long after the normal healing process should be finished.
Pre-teen and Adolescent Screening
Our youth are resilient by nature, but the increasing demands of screen time, heavy backpacks, and sports performance can result in a myriad of aches and pains.
In addition, as growing adolescents experience growth spurts, they can develop limiting symptoms of:
- Repetitive Motion Injuries
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Sever’s Disease
- Osgood-Schlatter Disease
- Achilles Tendonitis
- Back pain
- Scoliosis
- Headaches
- Poor Concentration
I greatly enjoy treating and teaching these young adults how to respect and effectively take care of their changing bodies, while developing strong postural habits for home, school, and sports. If you have a son or daughter showing signs of breakdown in their body, I would love to discuss with you a strategy for improving the health and well-being of your child.
