https://go.premierrt.com/facebook-root-cause-assessment I remember the frustration even at a young age of being sidelined from doing what I loved. My Mom also had Post Polio Syndrome, so I got to witness first hand the impact of poor health management on an entire family when outcomes and education are not optimal for the client. I realized my Mom had to try and figure out how to maintain her fitness on her own, as well as juggling the fear of possibly injuring her susceptible joints. While she has found ways to keep kayaking, biking, and walking to keep healthy, she could've done it with much less fear if she had a guide. Right out of High School I knew I wanted to be a Physical Therapist, but I've always had a love for the weight room and the spirit for increasing performance without the nagging injuries that prevent you from being consistent with your workouts. I completed my Doctoral Degree in Physical Therapy at Husson University. I then moved to Greenfield, MA where I had the opportunity to complete a 1 year residency in Physical Therapy Orthopedics at Baystate Franklin Medical Center and Springfield College. After that we moved to Boston and attended a 2 year fellowship in complex spine conditions at the Institute of Orthopeadic Manual Therapy in Woburn, MA with a focus on patient communication and hands on treatments. I also received my certificate as a strength and conditioning specialist while in Boston. I had to opportunity to work the MIT men's basketball team, local Gaelic football teams, athletes from surrounding colleges in Boston, and members of the Celtics dance team. Maybe you're working out for yourself, or maybe you're doing it for your family, but I am so excited and proud to be a part of your health and wellness journey! Credentials:
- Doctor of Physical Therapy

A pretty great way to spend a Thursday night. 🙌

Last night we hung out with the crew at Adam Clark Fitness and offered free movement screens to some of their members.

A huge thank you to Adam, Alex, and the entire ACF community for having us!

One of our favorite parts about doing what we do is getting to work alongside other local businesses that care just as much about helping people stay active, strong, and doing the things they love.

We're grateful to have partners like ACF that we can learn from, collaborate with, and confidently send people to.

Thanks for letting us be a small part of your community last night! đź’Ş

When this patient first came to us, back pain was starting to interfere with something much bigger than exercise.

It was affecting the kind of mom she wanted to be.

Picking up her daughter hurt. Giving her baths hurt. And with summer approaching, she worried hiking and being active with her family would become even harder.

Fast forward 4 months...

She went on a couple-mile hike carrying her daughter in a backpack and had no issues.

No modifying. No sitting this one out.

She just got to be the active mom she wanted to be.

That's the kind of progress that matters.

How much smaller does your hiking have to get before you decide your back is costing you too much?

Shorter miles.

Less elevation.

Skipping the harder trails.

Eventually saying no to hikes with friends and family.

If nothing changes, those little modifications can slowly become your new normal.

Follow Premier Rehab and Training if you want to keep saying yes to the hikes that matter to you.

If pickleball is the best part of your week, what happens when your back starts deciding how often you can play?

Right now, maybe it’s just some low back discomfort after a couple hours.

You stretch.

You take some ibuprofen.

You’re still playing.

So it feels manageable.

But for a lot of retired active adults, the bigger fear is where this is heading.

Missing a day with your group because your back is flared up.

Holding back on the court because you don’t trust yourself to move the same way.

Eventually losing one of the only times each week you get to compete, laugh, and connect with your friends.

At Premier Rehab and Training, we want you staying active throughout retirement and playing for as long as possible.

That means improving the mobility you need, then training your body to keep moving well even when you get tired.

If you want more tips to help you stay strong, stay social, and keep playing pickleball for years to come, follow Premier Rehab and Training!

If your back keeps flaring every time you hit the trail, you’ve probably already tried to get it under control.

PT gave you exercises.

Chiropractic care helped for a little while.

Massage loosened things up.

Then the same back pain showed up on the next hike.

At Premier Rehab and Training, we look at how your entire body works together so we can understand what keeps stressing your back.

We dig until we find what keeps the problem coming back.

If you want to keep exploring Maine without planning every trail around your back,

Follow us for more ways to understand what your body is telling you.

How many more hikes are you willing to lose to the same back pain cycle?

Right now, maybe you can still hike.

You just turn around earlier.

Skip the summit.

Choose the easier trail.

Then winter comes and you’re moving even less.

And part of you starts wondering what next spring will look like.

Will you still be hiking?

Or will another season pass while your world gets a little smaller?

At Premier Rehab and Training, we look deeper into why that flare-up cycle keeps repeating.

Because feeling better for a few days doesn’t tell you why your back keeps holding you back.

Finding what keeps driving the cycle does.

Follow us if you’re ready to break the flare-up cycle and keep Maine’s summits on your calendar.

For a lot of hikers with back pain, the frustrating part isn’t getting through the first mile.

It’s knowing that somewhere around mile 3, their back starts making the decision for them.

So they shorten the route.

Skip the bigger hikes.

Or spend the entire second half wondering how bad they’re going to feel by the time they get back to the car.

They’ve already tried traditional PT.

Massages.

Stretching.

And they’re still stuck at the same mileage.

That wears on you.

Because eventually you stop wondering, “Will my back hurt?”

And start wondering, “How far can I trust my body to take me?”

At Premier Rehab and Training, we look at what your body needs to keep those changes when the demands get higher.

When the trail gets steeper.

When the miles start adding up.

When your body is tired and still has another few miles to go.

Parents with shoulder pain, are you already wondering what happens when winter gets here?

Right now, maybe you can still work around it.

You stretch it.

You avoid certain positions.

You tell yourself you’ll deal with it later.

But winter has a way of making “later” feel a lot closer.

Because if your shoulder keeps getting more irritated over the next few months...

Are you still going to be able to get on the ice with your kids?

Or are you going to be standing on the other side of the glass wishing you could join them?

For a lot of parents, the activity changes.

The reason they care doesn’t.

They want to keep doing the things that connect them with their kids.

At Premier Rehab and Training, we look at how your shoulder, shoulder blade, ribs, and the rest of your body are working together.

Because sometimes the area that hurts is only part of the picture...

and this is what we call the root cause.

Follow Premier Rehab and Training to see why the area that hurts isn’t always the real problem.

The best rehab plan is built around the life you actually want to get back to.

For a lot of our patients, that means hiking farther without wondering when their back is going to call it quits.

They’ve already tried PT.

They were stuck in the corner doing exercises on their own.

They were handed off to an aide.

They went home with the same printed exercise sheet they’d been doing for weeks.

And they still couldn’t get past the same mileage without their back flaring up.

At Premier Rehab and Training, your plan starts with your goals and what your body is actually showing us.

We explain why you’re doing each exercise.

We adjust the plan based on how your body responds.

And we build toward the actual demands of the trail, because hiking 10 miles requires more from your body than simply getting out of pain.

If you’re tired of rehab that feels disconnected from what you actually want to do,

Do you ever wonder how long you can keep “toughing it out” before your back finally starts deciding what you can and can’t do?

You work all day.

You lift.

You carry.

You get the job done.

Then you get home completely wiped out.

And that project in the yard you were planning to finish?

It can wait again.

For now.

But if your back keeps feeling more tired, more tight, and more painful every month, what does that look like 3 months from now?

Still working through it.

Still pushing through the day.

But having less and less left for the projects, people, and responsibilities that matter to you outside of work.

At Premier Rehab and Training, we help you understand why your back is working so hard all day and what needs to change so your body can handle the work you ask of it.

Because being tough shouldn’t mean watching your capacity slowly disappear.

Follow us if you want to keep working hard and still have something left in the tank when you get home.
