Atkinson is a practicing physical therapist with 40 years of experience in the evaluation and treatment of neck and back pain due to both mechanical spinal dysfunction, trauma and post-surgical cases. She is a McKenzie-certified practitioner, skilled in conducting mechanical evaluation of the spine and proximal joints (shoulders, knee and hips) and determining the optimal treatment strategy for each patient. In the 90’s, she took the McKenzie Institute Mechanical spinal curriculum and passed her certification in mechanical diagnosis and therapy in 1998. In October 1999, she was approved as a Clinical Level III therapist, the highest level of clinical expertise recognized at present at TIRR Rehabilitation Centers (where she ran the spinal clinic from 1996-2001). Since June 2001, she has returned to private practice. She continues to focus exclusively on spinal pain disorders. She is a member of APTA, APTA Orthopedic section, TPTA, American Back Society, McKenzie Institute, USA, and other professional organizations. From mechanical evaluations, to clinical treatments, to information on effective at-home self treatments, rest assured that your pain stops here.

Our Story

We Help People From All Walks Of Life Especially Age 40+ To Get Back To Pain Free Activities As Soon As Possible Without Relying On Pain Medications, Injections or Surgery.

Welcome to River Oaks Physical Therapy, where, our one and only goal is, getting you back to pain free activities quickly and efficiently. Thanks to our evidence-based treatment approach, our average patient visit amount is 4-6 times versus the national average of 18. We empower our patients with the knowledge and skills to self-manage, alleviate pain, and restore function. Patients experience the difference in treatment with our various modality stations.

River Oaks Physical Therapy is a credentialed McKenzie clinic, one of the handful clinics in the Houston area. Using the scientifically-proven McKenzie method of treatment means that the patients spend days rather than months in therapy and, in most cases, avoid further testing, imaging, and often unnecessary invasive procedures.
