Root Causes
The classical Ayurvedic texts explain that health is a state of balance. My treatment style aims to be both preventative and responsive to current imbalances, and to treat the root causes, not just the symptoms. I take a three-pronged approach to wholeness and wellness:
PREVENTION, EARLY INTERVENTION, AND TREATMENT.
I use an integrative, holistic process for evaluation and treatment, looking at the state of all of the tissues, the digestive fire, and the nervous system to bring your whole system into balance and facilitate optimum conditions for healing.
This balance is essential to recovering from injury and to healing persistent pain. In order for your tissues to heal, you have to be able to metabolize and use the nutrients you consume so that you can build healthy tissues. Your nervous system needs support to manage the threat it perceives when you have pain. And your channels need to be open so that your body can send the healing cells to the tissues to repair, remove the waste, and allow energy to flow freely. Integrating Ayurveda and yoga into my physical therapy practice has radically transformed the path to healing for my clients, and expanded my ability to work with people at all stages of their wellness journeys.
