Where Exercise Meets Hands-On Care

Every therapeutic training program is individually designed around your goals, abilities, lifestyle, and stage of recovery. Unlike traditional personal training, my sessions combine targeted exercise with hands-on manual therapy, stretching, and muscle release to optimize movement, improve mobility, reduce pain, and accelerate progress. Programs may incorporate free weights, resistance bands, balance equipment, foam rollers, or bodyweight exercises, with an emphasis on practical movement that easily transfers to your home, workplace, or daily activities.

My goal is to make movement accessible, not dependent on expensive equipment or a gym membership. By helping you move with greater confidence, strength, and efficiency, therapeutic exercise becomes a sustainable part of everyday life rather than something reserved for the clinic.

Pranamix Yoga & Pilates

For more than 25 years, I have incorporated the principles of yoga and Pilates into physical therapy to improve mobility, postural alignment, breathing mechanics, body awareness, balance, and core stability.

I earned my 200-hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Certification in 2000 and have continued advanced study in Iyengar, Ashtanga, Viniyoga, Pranavinyasa, and Ananda Yoga. 

My Pilates training includes certifications through the Pilates Institute of America, Balanced Body, and Ellie Herman Pilates.

Rather than teaching traditional yoga or Pilates classes, I integrate these movement principles into rehabilitation when they support your treatment goals and complement your plan of care.

Mindfulness & Breath Training

Breathing influences far more than oxygen exchange. It affects posture, movement, nervous system regulation, pain perception, focus, and resilience.

Drawing from my doctoral research in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), more than 25 years of yoga and meditation practice, and current neuroscience, I incorporate evidence informed breathing and mindfulness strategies to improve body awareness, regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and support recovery.

These techniques are introduced when clinically appropriate to help you move with greater ease, confidence, and awareness both during therapy and in everyday life.
