Let’s clear something up 👀

Yes, I still do physical therapy! I still help people move better, get out of pain, and feel strong again. That part never left.

What's different now? I bring a whole body lens.

Because pain is not just about muscles and joints — your gut, hormones, nervous system, and stress all play a role.

So if your back, hip, or shoulder needs help, you can still come see me. We will build a plan that fits your goals and budget.

This is physical therapy, evolved.
Smarter. Deeper. More effective.

✨ The Breakdown is officially rolling! ✨

⚠️ Pelvic floor issues aren’t just postpartum. They’re showing up in youth athletes—loud and clear.

A recent study on elite track + field athletes under age 20 found that 43.7%—male and female—had pelvic floor symptoms.

That’s nearly half. And almost none of them were being asked about it.

👉 These symptoms aren’t just “leaks when you laugh.”
They include:
- Hip + groin tension
- Deep core instability
- Peeing with exertion
- Pelvic heaviness
- Difficulty progressing in training

You don’t out-train or out-squat this.
You need pelvic awareness, pressure strategy, and core control that goes beyond crunches.

🔍 At Ability PT, we offer:

✅ 1:1 pelvic health physical therapy
✅ Education tools for youth + adults
✅ Clear plans to help your body work for you—not against you

You don’t have to whisper this stuff.
And you’re not “too young” or “too fit” to experience it.

You asked for more—education, real case studies, the messy middle between science and real life.

Someone even said, “You should start a podcast.”
Let’s not get carried away, but I did make something new.

🎙 The Breakdown.
My no BS guide to understanding how your body actually works.

Your body is not random. It is reliable.
Every symptom is data. Every flare-up is communication.

Because resilience is engineered, not assumed.

🎃 Halloween is HERE and I’ve got something way better than that sugary junk everyone’s handing out! Let’s ditch the candy and make a yummy snack that is just as fun but won’t send you into a sugar coma.

🍏 Monster Apple Bites
- Apple (cored, quartered)
- Sunflower Seed Butter
- Pumpkin Seeds
- Dark Chocolate Chips

Cut a wedge into the apple for the "mouth," slather on some sunflower butter, and shove in those pumpkin seeds for creepy teeth. 🧛

Stick chocolate chips on top for eyes, and boom—your guests will be chomping at the bit. 😋

Hope you all have a spooktacular day! 🍬👻

Let’s get real.
Even when you know what your body needs…
Sometimes the smartest move is to pause, adapt, and come back to the basics.

🌀 15 minutes of breath-led movement
🌀 2 light lifts a week—even if they land back-to-back
🌀 No guilt. Just grace + strategy.

We don’t talk enough about the seasons where energy is low, stress is high, and the only “perfect” plan is one that keeps us afloat.

👉 So now I’m asking you: What’s your non-negotiable this week?
Drop it below. Let’s normalize doing less, smarter—and still building badass resilience.

Most people think pain lives where it hurts. It doesn’t.

Your hip pain isn’t just about your hip.
Neither is your fatigue, your hormone swings, or your gut issues.
Because your body doesn’t operate in isolation — it’s one massive communication network.

When your gut’s inflamed, your brain gets foggy.
When your hormones are off, your recovery tanks.
When your nervous system’s fried, your muscles stop firing right.

Everything’s talking to everything.
You just need someone who can speak the language.

This is where real recovery begins —
when we stop chasing symptoms and start decoding the system behind them.

What you’re actually feeling? Low Heart Rate Variability, or HRV.

And here’s the deal: low HRV isn’t just a “stress score” on your watch. It’s your body waving a giant neon sign saying, “Hey—recovery is stalled.”

Signs your HRV is tanking:
➕ Waking up tired after 7–8 hours in bed
➕ Random tightness or soreness (without a hard workout)
➕ Puffy hands, achy knees, or lingering tension
➕ Cold hands/feet that won’t warm up
➕ Stiffness that never fully “loosens” on your run or lift

Translation? Your nervous system is stuck in “go mode.” Muscles stay braced, inflammation lingers, blood flow is stingy, and pain gets louder.

Recovery isn’t just about foam rolling, sleeping more, or popping ibuprofen. It’s about retraining your nervous system so it can shift into repair mode again.

Question for you: Do you track HRV as a marker of your health? What have you found that actually improves your HRV?

Drop your answer below because the recovery conversation needs to go way deeper than “just sleep more.”

You’re not crazy. And you’re definitely not lazy.

You’ve done the imaging.
You’ve changed your diet.
You’ve seen the specialists, bought the supplements, done the workouts—
and you still feel foggy, bloated, exhausted, or just… off.

Here’s the thing ⤵️
It’s not that you haven’t tried hard enough. It’s that no one’s connected the dots between your gut, hormones, nervous system, and movement.

So you keep trying to fix one symptom at a time, while your body’s just trying to talk to you.

When you finally understand how your system works as a whole, everything starts to make sense… and actually work.

And no, I’m not the “cheapest” option. But after you’ve spent months (or years) chasing quick fixes, you’ve already paid for the wrong kind of care.

Let’s make this the last round. The one that actually works. 💪

Ever walked out of an appointment more confused than when you walked in?
Yeah that’s not care, that’s chaos.

Here’s the deal:
I’m not here to impress you with big words, fancy degrees, or a list of systems that sound disconnected from your reality.
I’m here to help you understand your body, because when you actually get what’s happening under the hood:
👉 you stop chasing symptoms
👉 you start making changes that stick
👉 and your body finally starts working with you, not against you.

I can’t tell you how many people come in saying, “No one’s ever explained it to me like that.”

That’s because your body isn’t a collection of random problems. It’s a connected system: gut, hormones, nervous system, movement, mindset — all speaking the same language.
You just need the right translator.

And that’s where I come in.

🔥 Book your 1:1 appointment.
Knowledge isn’t just power — it’s prevention.

If I had a dollar for every time someone said this, I could buy my own MRI machine. 😏

Most people come to me after months (or years) of trying “cheaper” or “covered” care…
And they’ve already spent way more than it would’ve cost to start here.

The difference?
I don’t just treat the symptom — I rebuild the system.

Because your body isn’t broken.
It’s just been waiting for the right strategy.

Let’s be clear: your fueling habits might be sidelining you more than your training load.

A 2025 meta-analysis looked at 15 studies and over 5,000 runners to connect the dots between nutrition, disordered eating, and injury risk.

Here’s what it found:

For female runners, eating just 300 fewer calories per day significantly increases risk of running-related injuries—especially bone stress injuries.

In a nutshell, lower fat intake = higher injury risk (yes, your hormones + cell membranes NEED it).

For both sexes, low fiber intake correlated with increased bone stress injury risk.

Protein, carbs, calcium, and even alcohol? No strong injury link found in this analysis.

What this really means:

You can have the perfectly structured training plan and still end up sidelined if your body is undernourished, under-recovered, or just plain under-resourced.

Pain isn’t always about movement patterns—it’s about metabolic resilience.
You need fuel. You need fiber. And you need systems that support your tissues from the inside out.

At Ability PT, I go way beyond “rest and ice it.” Whether it’s gut health, hormone balance, energy deficits or nervous system dysregulation—we look under the hood. Because if you want to be resilient, it starts at the cellular level.
