Graduated from the University of Delaware with a Masters in Physical Therapy. A versatile physical therapist, Emily has been working in this career for more than 20 years. She is an expert John Barnes Myofascial Release Bodyworker, and has treated chronic Pelvic Pain since 2014 with great success. She worked for OHSU and the Legacy system for years. Working largely with trauma patients, Emily learned early that everything in the body is connected. What happens to one part affects the others holistically. Postural alignment, core stability, and free breath support lead to less pain and improved function. Emily also specializes in balance and vestibular dysfunctions. After years spent with neurologically involved clients, she has an excellent “eye” for movement and coordination problems, as well as good facilitation skills to promote much improved motor control. This clinical skill allows Emily to provide exceptional care for the client with a stroke, rotator cuff problems as well as those with back pain or sprained ankles.
