Physical Integration

for Chronic Pain + Illness

Recovering from and managing chronic pain and illness is complex. It requires more than simple medications or exercises. I start by listening deeply to your symptoms and experiences, and we take a whole-life approach to improving your wellness. I utilize an intuitive strengthening model that integrates your individual nervous system responses and feedback to gradually improve strength and mobility, while helping you maintain an inner sense of felt safety and control. 

​

I have worked in a variety of rehabilitation settings for years from acute, hospital inpatient, outpatient, and homecare settings. I have extensive training and experience working with upper extremity injuries, neurological conditions (Parkinson’s, stroke, spinal cord injuries, ALS), paralysis, traumatic brain injury, and orthopedic and traumatic injuries. 

I have a strong expertise in adaptive equipment, environmental modifications, and wheelchair and positioning needs. I have helped hundreds of individuals acquire essential equipment with a 99% insurance approval record. As an occupational therapist, I am always looking for ways we can adapt your environment, roles and routines to meet and support you in living your best life.

​

Whatever physical symptoms you are experiencing, I will meet you where you are at. Together, we will map out your goals and develop a holistic approach to your whole health and recovery.

Nutrition + Wellness

I work with my clients to develop whole-body, whole-life nutritional and wellness strategies to sustain and enhance your quality of life.

Kinesiotaping

Kinesiotaping provides pain relief, enhanced joint stability, and improved circulation to reduce swelling. It supports muscles and joints without restricting movement, aiding in faster rehabilitation and enhancing proprioception (body awareness).

Strengthening Programs

My intuitive physical strengthening programs are intertwined with nervous system integration to help you recover freedom of movement and increased vitality.

​

Habit Change

Together we will identify and develop new sustainable habits and set workable daily routines to support your health and lifestyle goals.

Bodywork

I use multiple bodywork modalities, including myofascial release, for increased mobilty and pain management.

"Suppose the body is a God in its own right,
a teacher, a mentor, a certified guide.
Are we strong enough to listen deep,
listen true to the body
as a powerful and holy being?"
