TREATMENTS

THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE

Instruction in an exercise program customized to your individual needs and exercise level/experience. Guidance in progression of the program and exercises for improvements in strength and endurance. Includes in person guidance as well as a detailed exercise program for home or gym. 

GAIT
TRAINING

Instruction in techniques to improve walking ability and endurance. Including postural and balance exercises, training with assistive devices, gait mechanics and speed. 

MANUAL
THERAPY

  • Soft tissue mobilization/Deep Tissue Massage/ Myofascial release- used to increase blood flow, tissue mobility, decrease swelling, improve mobility and decrease pain. 

  • Joint Mobilization- used to improve joint mobility and functional range of motion, increase blood flow and soft tissue mobility, decrease pain, and neural relaxation.

  • Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization: use of specialized metal tools/ cups with manual techniques to improve blood flow and soft tissue mobility. 

FUNCTIONAL MOBILITY
TRAINING

Instruction in movement patterns and techniques to minimize pain with injury or to decrease repetitive strain from daily activities. Instruction in techniques for lifting, childcare activities, household chores, work duties to decrease strain or modify due to injury. 

VERTIGO/
VESTIBULAR REHAB

  • Treatment of positional vertigo ( BPPV)

  • Specialized exercises focusing on retraining the vestibular system to improve balance, decrease dizziness, treat positional vertigo, and improve tolerance to daily activities limited by dizziness and disequilibrium. 

ERGONOMIC ASSESSMENTS

Assessment of your home or work space with customized recommendations and patient education for ideal ergonomic set-up which helps to minimize strains and injuries from repetitive movements or prolonged positions.

​

I am also certified in industrial ergonomics and functional job analysis for businesses looking to reduce work related musculoskeletal injuries, workers compensation claims and provide their employees with health and wellness services. 

​

CONCUSSION TREATMENT

Treatment for acute concussions as well as lingering symptoms associated with post concussion syndrome. Including headaches, neck pain, postural changes,  dizziness, balance issues, decreased tolerance to exercise, and guidance for return to sports and activities. 

DRY NEEDLING

  • Intramuscular dry needling uses thin, solid filament needles to target myofascial trigger points, muscle tightness, and dysfunctional tissue that may contribute to pain. 

  • Dry needling helps reduce pain, decreases muscle tension, improves local blood flow and normalizes neuromuscular function leading to improved mobility and a faster return to function.
