A Touch Above Physical Therapy

Hi!! I am a Physical Therapist with 18 years experience specializing in myofascial release, cranial sacral , and kinesio taping. I treat infants through adults.
I truly enjoy working with parents of infants to help them set up an environment in which they can thrive and achieve their milestones appropriately without stress and tears. I am able to do this through my training as well as my experience as a mom of 3.
