Treat your patients like they are your family. That has been the standard I hold myself to since 1985.
I started in physical therapy in 1985 and earned my degree at Rosalind Franklin University. Alongside that, I spent my career with the Chicago Fire Department and retired as a battalion chief, so I have spent a lot of years around people whose bodies are their livelihood.
In 2008 I completed the Gray Institute's GIFT program and became a Fellow of Applied Functional Science, and I now teach for the Gray Institute on women's health and the female athlete. My work leans on manual therapy: muscle energy, strain-counterstrain, primal reflex release, craniosacral therapy, and fascial release, alongside dry needling. I also do movement analysis for throwing and running, which is often what explains a shoulder or a knee that has not responded to treating the joint on its own.
I have competed in triathlons, baseball, and basketball over the years. My newest sport is golf.
