"Motion is the lotion!" At Proactive Performance Therapy, I emphasize exercise and movement as cornerstones of your rehabilitation strategy. Tailored to your goals and fitness level, this approach can manifest in various ways. I firmly believe in engaging the entire body, reflected in the comprehensive exercise routine integrated into your personalized program.

The healing touch stands as a paramount tool in the arsenal of physical therapy. I've actively invested in refining my manual therapy skills, securing advanced certifications that ensure top-tier manual therapy treatments. Generally, my patients initiate their journey with manual therapy sessions, facilitating joint mobilization and optimizing soft tissue movement. This subsequently unburdens the rest of your body, enabling unrestricted movement across your entire kinetic chain.

Considered a complementary therapy, dry needling is the modern adaptation of an age-old therapeutic method. At Proactive Performance Therapy, I employ needles not for energy pathways or trigger points, but to target specific problem areas based on anatomy and palpation expertise. By inserting a needle into a stagnated soft tissue structure, the healing process is reactivated, initiating the necessary physiological responses to restore pain-free function effectively.

Recognizing that our daily movements, influenced by leisure pursuits, hobbies, or jobs, demand intricate coordination across the body. This notion of "regional interdependence" highlights that a single movement necessitates the engagement of nearby and opposing anatomical elements, extending beyond the immediate muscles and joints. Functional movement assessment embraces this perspective to uncover any comprehensive limitations within your body. These constraints might hinder your engagement in cherished activities, underlining the importance of this holistic approach.
