Leg Injury

A Personalized Approach to Wellness

Why PT?
Why Physical Therapy?

Regardless of age, activity level, or prior fitness, we all go through times when we just aren't moving like we want to. Sometimes that's because we are injured or we're afraid of getting injured. Whether your goal is to start moving again after a period of inactivity, or to take your fitness to the next level, physical therapy can help.

Because Movement is For Every Body.

What to Expect

PT includes a comprehensive medical screening, musculoskeletal examination, and creation of a personalized plan of care to empower you to reach your goals.​​

Treatment Philosophy

People are more than their injury. By taking the time to learn about each person, how they were injured, and what their goals are, I work in partnership with patients to find the right interventions to get them back to doing what they love.

I strive to empower every patient to manage their health and mobility goals independently when away from the clinic. This is achieved through continual patient education and encouraging communication & feedback.

Who do I treat?

As an orthopedic specialist I treat patients from head to toe. Because there are so many musculoskeletal diagnoses that I do treat, it’s easier to list the few areas I don’t specialize in, but would happily refer to another provider for.

 

I do not provide treatment for:

  • BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo)

  • pelvic floor dysfunction

  • pediatric developmental delays

  • prosthetics and wheelchair fittings
