She takes time to understand your symptoms, how they affect your life, and what you want to get back to. Through a thorough assessment, she develops a treatment plan with you and explains the reasoning behind each step.
Her approach combines hands-on treatment, individualized exercise, and education. Depending on your needs, treatment may include manual therapy and dry needling, alongside exercises that build strength and confidence in movement.
