Orthopedic Physical Therapy

 

Kathleen uses many varied manual techniques to help your body return to full, pain-free health. These include Canadian and Australian Manual Therapy, MacKenzie Method, and Osteopathic techniques.

 Often, when we are injured or suffering with chronic pain, our joints and tissues have lost their natural abilities to move as designed, and no amount of stretching or rolling or ibuprofen will help! Kathleen has extensive knowledge of joint kinematics, along with manual skills to help your body regain full range of motion and strength.

 Orthopedic physical therapy is a terrific partner with other treatment techniques, such as chiropractic, acupuncture, osteopathy, Alexander Technique, Rolfing (also known as structural re-integration), Yoga and massage. Kathleen loves to work with your "team" as each mode of treatment can be beneficial for your complete recovery.

One thing that makes this practice unique is Kathleen's own experience of living in an active body for more than half a century! Having experienced injuries and frustrations with limitaions due to injury has helped Kathleen have exceptional empathy and understanding of her clients' discontent.
