G<\/span>rowing up in southeastern Michigan, my career began in High School, spending four years as the boys\u2019 basketball student athletic trainer.<\/span><\/p>\n I continued this path in college, attending the University of Toledo, earning a bachelor\u2019s degree in Athletic Training and becoming Certified (ATC) in 1994. I continued my higher level education by attending the Medical College of Ohio and graduated in 1996 with a bachelor\u2019s degree in Physical Therapy.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.8em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n My first job out of college was at a small community hospital in rural Ohio. I\u2019ve worked in outpatient orthopedics from the start,\u00a0 moving to New Hampshire in 1998, where I started working as a <\/span>NH physical therapist.<\/span><\/p>\n In 2008, I completed a fellowship in manual therapy at the Institute of Orthopedic Manual Therapy<\/a> in Woburn, Massachusetts. Through this fellowship experience, I learned the Kaltenborn-Evjenth Orthopedic Manual Therapy Concept<\/a>, which focuses intensely on joint and body mechanics. With this expertise I am better able to evaluate and treat injury using specialized joint mobilization and other hands on assessment and treatment techniques. <\/span><\/p>\n Using this specialized training, I\u2019ve successfully worked with a wide variety of orthopedic injuries in patients of all ages. I love being able to help my patients not only feel better, but actually move better, too.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”3px||39px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ width=”100%” custom_padding=”16px||11px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#2f70bf” header_2_font_size=”40px” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” header_5_font=”||||||||” header_5_text_color=”#7f8dff” header_5_line_height=”2em” text_orientation=”center” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||-3px|||” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”30px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#2f70bf” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”80%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_margin=”||5px|||” module_alignment_tablet=”” module_alignment_phone=”center” module_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.8em” width=”100%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”70%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_alignment=”center” module_alignment_tablet=”” module_alignment_phone=”center” module_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n I am also passionate about providing physical therapy and wellness education throughout the Southern New Hampshire community.
