Philosophy of care and typical treatment strategies:
I have found that working with a holistic, team approach is essential for people experiencing any concern or suspicion of endometriosis. There is not one discipline that can cover the needs of such a complex and uniquely presenting disease process throughout a lifetime. My role is to expand and improve on a diverse set of knowledge by regularly attending continuing education specific to endometriosis and pelvic pain syndromes.
Advanced internal and general manual therapy techniques such as myofascial release, visceral manipulation and autonomic nervous system regulation are frequently implemented. Lifestyle medicine concepts may include finding the right type of movement/fitness and conservative pain management to allow the patient to achieve their goals. My patient-centered soft skills are being empathetic, trauma-informed, humorous with an intuitive approach.
What should be known about you:
Over the course of a 25+ year career as a Pelvic Health PT, I have had the privilege of training and collaborating with world-renowned experts in pelvic PT, pain management, MIGS, midwifery and functional medicine. My resourcing reach goes beyond local communities to the leaders in the endometriosis treatment and birthing community for current, evidenced-based and complimentary therapies. Promoting awareness for early diagnosis and proactive treatments for fertility preservation are areas of special interest. I am the owner of a private practice with locations in Chapel Hill and Raleigh, NC. For more information, visit www.VitalityPT.org

Philosophy of care and typical treatment strategies: I enjoy meeting patients where they are with their symptoms, the season of life they are in, and their needs and wants with their course of recovery and management. Patients are expert in their own bodies, and learning from each patient how to help them is one of my favorite approaches to care. I use a variety of techniques and modalities, including visceral mobilization, joint mobilization, soft tissue mobilization, ultrasound, electrical stimulation, strengthening and endurance training, stretching, body mechanics and posture, diet and lifestyle modifications, stress management, polyvagal strategies, functional mobility training, and collaborative care with other involved providers. I am continuing to learn and add skills and knowledge to the body of strategies I have to treat each person individually.
