As a physical therapist, I’ve seen a lot of what works and what doesn’t.
Your body is designed to heal itself if given the right time, space, and focus. By listening to and watching the body, we facilitate its natural healing processes.
I began my career at Harborview Medical Center in acute care and inpatient rehabilitation before transitioning to outpatient neurology. While there, I learned about Myofascial Release, seeing patients who were stunned and grateful to find pain relief. I began training in John F. Barnes’ approach and deepened my expertise.
I get your real life. In mine, morning meditation is off the menu and coffee is required as I’m juggling family needs, including three kids. With any free time, I love movement: in the past, martial arts. Lately, hip-hop dance.
You deserve to feel good in your body. Myofascial Release is how I help make that happen.
