Support for Movement & Function

Functional Embodiment Physical Therapy provides care for musculoskeletal and myofascial conditions - the kinds of issues that affect how the body moves, feels, and functions in everyday life. 
 

Conditions Treated 

​​Many movement-related concerns involve the interdependent function of muscle, fascia, and bones. This practice addresses musculoskeletal and myofascial restrictions through a whole-body approach that supports improved comfort and functional movement.

​​

Musculoskeletal Conditions Treated:

  • Shoulder pain and impairments

  • Elbow and wrist discomfort

  • Hip and knee pain

  • Foot and ankle issues

  • Jaw tension and headaches

  • Spine-related pain and dysfunction

  • Muscle strains from physical activity

​​​​

Myofascial & Soft Tissue Dysfunction Treated:

  • Pain, stiffness, or persistent muscle tension

  • Decreased range of motion and limited flexibility

  • Muscle imbalance and inflexibility

  • Posture and alignment dysfunction

  • Overuse injuries from repetitive strain

​

​

​​​

Scope of services: Care at this practice is dedicated to musculoskeletal and myofascial conditions related to movement and function. Post-operative or neurological rehabilitation is not offered.

​

Physical Therapy Evaluation

Your first visit begins with a comprehensive evaluation designed to uncover the root causes of your movement challenges. I’ll review your medical history, ask questions pertinent to your condition, function, activities, and lifestyle, and complete a detailed examination of:

​

  • Postural patterns

  • Body alignment

  • Fascial health

  • Range of motion

  • Muscle strength and balance

  • Movement mechanics

​​

Even when symptoms are concentrated in one area, I look beyond the site of discomfort to evaluate how your body functions as a whole. Movement is a system-wide experience - and together, we explore how surrounding regions may be influencing the way tension or imbalance shows up.

 

These contributing factors may stem from habitual movement patterns, biomechanical issues, or musculoskeletal restrictions. By identifying and addressing these interrelated elements, we support your body's capacity to move with greater ease and alignment.

​​

From this assessment, I’ll create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique goals, whether that’s reducing tension, restoring mobility, or improving functional movement.

​

Treatment Visits

Follow-up treatment visits build on your evaluation, using targeted interventions to restore balance, improve function, and give you tools for long-term well-being. Treatments may include:

​

  • Soft tissue mobilization

  • Myofascial release

  • Joint mobilization

  • Neuromuscular re-education

  • Postural and movement retraining

  • Home exercises to reinforce new patterns

  • Education on body mechanics and self-care strategies

​

Each session is designed not only to address current concerns but to deepen your understanding of how your body moves and adapts. Together, we focus on restoring ease, preventing recurrence, and supporing your ability to move with confidence in daily life.
