Lotus Root Physical Therapy

Lotus Root Physical Therapy Specializing in orthopedic physical therapy, women's issues, John Barnes' Myofascial Release and pain management.

Lotus Root PT was developed by Amanda Keegan, MPT with a vision to provide cost-effective, outpatient physical therapy within an environment that fosters healing. We utilize a full body approach to treating dysfunction and focus on identifying the underlying root cause of injury, rather than simply treating a list of symptoms or diagnoses. As such, treatment times are 60 minutes, allowing patients time to ask questions, become an active participant in their therapy and obtain the care they need without the rushed pace that is often experienced in other therapy practices. Amanda believes the body has an innate ability to heal itself when given a supportive environment. Every body is different and requires a unique combination of interventions to find balance and achieve wellness. She will work with you to find that unique combination. One of the most important roles of a physical therapist is to educate patients, not only how to become independent in self-treatment, but also how to incorporate exercise and self-assessment into their daily lives in order to prevent future injury. Amanda's greatest passion is helping patients return to the most functional lifestyle possible.

Everyone is starting to realize how important fascia is when it comes to training the body, but most people still underestimate how deeply it influences movement.

Hydrated fascia behaves very differently, down to the cellular level. Not only does it participate in bioelectric signaling, it also plays a major role in how much range of motion your body can access during exercise. When this tissue is loaded correctly, it becomes elastic and responsive. Your muscles coordinate better, your posture improves, and energy becomes more stable because your body isnโ€™t fighting itself to move.

When this tissue loses its elasticity and structural organization, your body begins moving in ways that increase tension, stiffness, and joint stress in the wrong areas. This is when people start experiencing the movement degradation that eventually leads to pain. Hydration in the body isnโ€™t just about drinking more water. It depends on restoring the mechanical conditions that allow fluid to move through your tissue with minimal friction.

The visual on the left is exactly what we help you overcome through our training. This is what you see in the transformations we help people achieve, where their bodies begin to look more viscoelastic and full.

If you want to improve your movement, you not only need to strengthen the muscles that are weak, you also need to build the mechanics that distribute tension efficiently throughout your fascial system. The quality of your movement determines the quality of your tissue.

Dealing with stress incontinence? This is often not due to weakness, but rather an inability to relax the pelvic floor muscles. Kegels are not always the answer! If youโ€™re unable to see a pelvic floor specialist for proper assessment, the Perifit is a good alternative.
