I get asked a lot about WHY I started Clay Scoliosis Clinic.

My summary statement is:
SERVE AT WORK, BE PRESENT AT HOME

The journey began trying to fix me! My scoliosis was too minor to get treatment as a teen, but enough to cause symptoms as an adult. It kicked off a journey that lead me to specializing in physical therapy for scoliosis! Just by learning to change my posture I can prevent numbness/tingling in my right leg and live life without issues!

After I had my first daughter I realized that I couldn't work full time. I also realized my brain would explode if I tried to be the best at EVERYTHING as a generalist. It was not a good feeling being just ok at a lot of things when I wanted to give my clients the best, but couldn't. So why not focus part time, on just ONE thing?

Well the thing I wanted to do didn't exist on the terms I wanted to keep balance with my work and family/faith goals. Thus Clay Scoliosis Clinic!

The world told me I couldn't change my scoliosis (check out my xrays in the next pic). It also told me I couldn't specialize in scoliosis care without working full time, but I'm always up for a challenge 😉

It is an honor to be a part of our clients' success stories. We have been able to help kids/teens avoid spinal surgery, aid moms with small children overcome pain, guide grandparents in improving mobility to engage with their grandkids, train athletes to persevere in their sport, assist hurting individuals to reclaim their social lives, and promote positive body image in all ages.

Our clinic provides a place of community and hope for people who have long felt isolated. We get to change the narrative that "nothing can be done for scoliosis" and instill an empowered role with spinal health!

It's an amazing blessing to do work that counts and helps people thrive. And what a praise that beauty has been made out what started as thorn in my own story!

Thanks for reading!

Rockstar status for this girl! With dedicated Schroth therapy and a stellar Rigo Cheneau brace made by .today she has achieved not only curve stability, but 13 degrees of thoracic correction and 6 degrees of lumbar correction! We still have a way to go to reach the finish line, but what a spectacular start 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Shout out to my client who has worked HARD and it has paid off! With 3D bracing and schroth combined she has DECREASED her curves by 12 degrees each!

Lumbar curves are hard to correct rotationally. Breath work isn’t as effective the lower curves go. It takes a lot of body awareness and hard work to achieve expansion by muscle activation alone. So excited about the progress this client has made in unwinding a tricky curve!

Can Schroth help rounding (kyphosis) and scoliosis? Absolutely! So proud of this clients progress and motivation to improve his posture!
