About Us
Our philosophy is that the whole body contributes to what may appear as just a symptom in one area. We see beyond the obvious and treat the whole body as it relates to your problem. Our treatment strategy combines progressive with traditional methodologies. Treatment techniques are specific to your unique problem so you will never experience a protocol treatment for your pain. Our primary treatment approach is the John F. Barnes approach to Myofascial Release and Unwinding, Total Motion Release, functional restoration through motor re-education and most importantly patient education.
Our patients typically enjoy the common sense approach to treatment and often witness immediate benefit. They often experience feeling better than they felt before their injury or problem. They also leave with the basic knowledge of how to manage immediate injuries and pain in the future.
Many times, chronic physical pain may be influenced by increased emotional stress. Kathleen’s experience with transformational facilitation enhances her ability to integrate the mind/body component of healing into physical therapy treatment.
