New on the Blog! Jaw, Neck, and Shoulder Pain on Right Side: What's the Connection?

Have you ever noticed jaw, neck, and shoulder pain showing up on the same side?

These areas are closely connected, and things like posture, stress, breathing patterns, and daily movement habits can all contribute. I take a holistic approach in my physical therapy practice to look at the full picture and help you move with more comfort and confidence.

If you’ve been dealing with right-sided pain, I’d love to support you.

New on the Blog! What is chronic pain syndrome?
If you have been dealing with pain that just will not go away, you are not alone.
I recently wrote about chronic pain syndrome and why pain sometimes continues even after tissues have healed. It is often less about something being broken and more about how sensitive the nervous system has become.
Chronic pain treatment is something I work with every day in physical therapy, helping people rebuild confidence in movement and return to the activities they love.
If this resonates, I would love for you to read the blog and reach out with any questions.

New on the Blog! What relieves arthritis pain in knees?
If knee arthritis pain has been making movement feel confusing or frustrating, you are not alone. Pain does not always tell the full story about what your knees are capable of.
In my work, I support people through holistic physical therapy that focuses on movement, nervous system support, and staying connected to the activities that bring meaning. If this resonates, the blog shares more perspective you might find helpful.

Y’all…I did a thing and I’m celebrating 🥳 becoming a 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗪𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵!⁣
⁣
I started this journey with the inaugural cohort of in May 2023 and, while I knew deep down it would be an amazing experience, I was (and still am) blown away by just how transformative this process was.⁣
⁣
I unlearned and learned a lot about myself, the systems that benefit from keeping us stuck and small, the coaching industry, how to be a coach and what a coach is and isn’t, how to hold a heart-centered space and practice with care, ethics, and integrity. Oh, and I learned a bunch of coaching tools, too. 😉⁣
⁣
Through the certification, I found my strengths as a coach in my presence, compassion, and curiosity and bring those to each session to help folks explore what’s on their heart or mind, what’s important to them in that moment. ⁣
⁣
There’s so much noise (literally and also in the online space) around us all the time and we can all too easily lose touch with our own inner wisdom. ⁣
⁣
If you’d like help connecting back to your inner wisdom, creating more self-trust, more presence, more joy, I would be honored to partner with you! Together we’ll co-create a space for you to be heard, to bring your whole self, to slow down and intentionally decide how YOU want to create YOUR fulfilled life.⁣
