Therapist
I have worked primarily with upper extremity injuries since
1990 and received my CHT in 2000. I enjoy working with all types of
upper extremity injuries, cumulative trauma, sports, and traumatic
injuries. I believe patient education is a key component in
understanding one's diagnosis and treatment.

As a current and collegiate volleyball player, I find joy in
treating an array of injuries. I utilize patient education,
therapeutic exercise, and hands on techniques to individualize every
patients care plan.
Each new patient that I work with provides me with another
learning opportunity, as each body processes pain and dysfunction in
a somewhat unique way. I gain great satisfaction in my work by using
my advanced manual therapy techniques to help a patient
become more comfortable and functional. I also focus
on providing the tools and information for patients to manage
their conditions independently.
I have multiple years of experience treating a variety of
muscle, bone, and joint problems from the athlete, to the worker, to
the active senior. I emphasize a sports medicine approach with
active exercise and individualize your treatment plan to make sure
you return to your activities and sports.

therapy, and patient education.

Although I love treating a wide array of orthopedic
conditions, I have a strong interest and educational background in
women's health issues, TMJ, and spinal disorders. I have especially
found manual therapy and postural repositioning techniques to be
useful to both treat and manage clients. I believe in treating each
person as an individual and customizing their care accordingly.
