Physical Therapy & Aston Patterning\u00ae<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"I am a student of movement, my own and yours. I will guide your discovery of how your movement patterns influence your comfort and function.<\/p>\n

At a time when insurers are demanding a “quick fix” from physical therapy, I am committed to lasting results, which come from seeing the body as a unified whole. This is a lesson I learned from movement expert Judith Aston who developed a comprehensive approach to working with bodies in motion. She teaches that an injury or dysfunction in one part of the body will cause the rest of the body to compensate in ways that reinforce the original symptoms. To release tension and pain and to teach people how to use their bodies more efficiently, she developed an integrated system of bodywork, movement education, exercise, and environmental design.<\/p>\n

Aston-Patterning\u00ae<\/span>\u00a0is an important component of my treatment approach. Every new patient receives a thorough evaluation and treatment plan. I draw upon my medical background to understand the patient’s diagnosis and on my Aston-Patterning\u00ae<\/span>\u00a0training to see how the whole body has compensated for the identified problem. Treatment strikes a balance between hands-on bodywork and active movement education. For more information regarding Aston-Patterning\u00ae, visit AstonKinetics.com.<\/a><\/p>\n
