Prism Physical Therapy

At Prism PT, the bulk of my session focuses on teaching my patients independence in their health. I do this through educating my patients about the many aspects of their healthcare. This includes: how to navigate our challenging healthcare system, additional ways they can address their health needs, self-advocacy as a patient, and detailed education of their condition and body. I think of myself as a health mentor with a background in physical therapy.I also utilize a specialized body work technique to help release tension throughout the body, allowing it to return to balance. By combining gentle exercises that support this balance, my patients are able to more easily maintain their health.I have found that with this approach, many of my patients are able to find greater freedom in their health. They are better informed on how to take care of themselves, which helps reduce the number of appointments they need, leaving them with more time and money to enjoy life.My experiences in multiple healthcare settings, both professionally and as a patient, have given me ample insight into today's healthcare system. It's challenging to navigate this, and having someone to coach us through this journey is vitally important to our success. Providing this guidance is a passion of mine.

Fascial Counterstrain (FCS) is the application of hands-on manual therapy to release contractions of your tissues, such as muscles, ligaments, and nerves. When there is tissue tension, this can cause pain and dysfunction. By releasing these tissues, the body can move more appropriately and release inflammation. This is a painless technique and has the ability to affect any system in the body, including lymphatics, visceral organs, bone, and more. Tissue tension release is achieved through gentle repositioning of the body that I will perform. Learn more about FCS here.

It is very important to know if we are a good fit. My approach is not for everyone, and I like to make sure that those I work with will benefit from our time together. I look at physical therapy as a team effort. I will do everything in my power to help someone heal, but I cannot do it alone. If the patient is unable to fully participate (within reason), I will not be able to continue working with them as we will struggle to see results. Please read My Specialization to learn more.
