​
Physical Therapy is a science and an art. I believe there are many tools and approaches to help you get better. That being said, each treatment may vary to make your treatment the most effective. Among many techniques, a few tools I like to utilize are Instrumented Assisted STM, taping, myofascial decompression (cup therapy) with neuromuscular re-education and specific exercises tailored to your individualized rehab program.
My goal is to facilitate healing and restore efficient movement and comfort as quickly as possible. I achieve this through proven hands-on techniques when needed, one-on-one therapy, & individualized rehabilitation programs.
I started my physical therapy journey in Long Beach, CA then moved to Texas and married my Texan Husband in Wimberley, TX. We enjoy going on long hikes, playing violin, playing disc golf, and hanging out with our son.
