ABOUT ROOTED MOTION
Care That Meets You Where You Are.
Physical therapy should fit into your life—not ask your life to fit around it.
​
Rooted Motion was created around a simple belief: exceptional physical therapy should be personal, thoughtful, and connected to the life you actually live. By bringing one-on-one care directly to you, we take the time to understand your goals, how you move, and the factors that may be standing in your way—so your care has clear purpose and a path forward that makes sense for you.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
More Than Recovery. A Foundation for Lifelong Movement.
At Rooted Motion, we believe physical therapy should do more than help you get through an injury or episode of pain. It should help you better understand your body, move with confidence, and build the capacity to stay active over time.
​
That begins with looking at the whole person—not simply a diagnosis. We consider your movement, lifestyle, goals, experiences, and the activities that matter most to you, then use clinical expertise and evidence-based care to guide the path forward.
​
Through purposeful movement, education, and one-on-one care, our goal is to help you restore confidence, build resilience, and develop practical tools that help you stay active, adapt with confidence, and keep doing what matters most to you.
OUR APPROACH
Personal by Design.
Every person moves differently, experiences pain differently, and has different goals. That’s why our approach is built around understanding you—not fitting you into a one-size-fits-all plan.
One-on-One Attention
Your time is fully dedicated to you, allowing care to stay focused on your needs, progress, and goals.
Looking Beyond the Symptoms
We consider the factors influencing how you move, function, and feel to better understand the full picture.
Care in Your Environment
Our mobile concierge model brings care directly to you, making treatment more convenient and relevant to your everyday life.
Guided by Your Goals
Whether your focus is recovery, persistent pain, wellness, or performance, your plan is shaped around what matters most to you.

Helping you build a stronger foundation for lifelong movement.
My goal at Rooted Motion is simple—to help you build a stronger foundation for lifelong movement so you can spend less time worrying about your body and more time using it. For more than 12 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping people move better, feel stronger, and return to the activities that matter most to them. My experience spans multidisciplinary healthcare settings, where I’ve worked with a diverse range of patients—from athletes and active adults to individuals navigating orthopedic injuries, hypermobility, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), POTS, and persistent pain.
​
I founded Rooted Motion Physical Therapy because I believe exceptional physical therapy should be personal. Your care shouldn’t be dictated by insurance restrictions, rushed appointments, or a one-size-fits-all treatment plan. As a mobile concierge practice, Rooted Motion allows me to provide focused, one-on-one care built around your body, your goals, and your life.
​
My approach blends movement and biomechanical assessment, progressive exercise and strength training, hands-on care, education, and specialized techniques when appropriate. I have completed advanced clinical training and certification in Dry Needling through Myopain Seminars and the Spinal Manipulation Institute, as well as Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training through Northeast Seminars.
​
I especially enjoy working with athletes, tennis players, and individuals with hypermobility and POTS. As an avid tennis player myself, I understand how important it is to not only recover from an injury, but to build the strength, confidence, and resilience needed to return to the activities you love.
​
When I’m not treating patients, you’ll usually find me playing tennis or traveling and exploring somewhere new. Those experiences reinforce something I believe deeply: movement gives us the freedom to experience life.
​
My goal at Rooted Motion is simple—to help you build a stronger foundation for lifelong movement so you can spend less time worrying about your body and more time using it.

Move Better. Live Rooted.
