Why I Do What I Do:

The sound of a swimmers voice called from across the pool deck, "Hey Brain, can you stretch me out before my race?"  This was a common occurrence back in High School when I was on the Greenwich High swim team.  I was in high demand at each meet.   I just instinctively knew how the body moved and what it needed to be more efficient.  You could say I had a special touch, a heightened understanding.  
 
Being an athlete and being active drives me.  It was my participation in sports that afforded an appreciation for how the body moves and how I can control or improve that movement.

I devoted more and more time to developing a better understanding of the body, which led me to a love of medicine.  I wanted to help those who were injured and ill to regain normalcy in their lives.   Becoming a Doctor of Physical Therapy allowed me to embrace my strong suites of caring, motivating, and one-one personalized attention.     

My work as a Physical Therapist is driven by my desire to give the highest level of individualized care.   In many fast paced rehabilitative settings a patient is lost in the daily shuffle, left to wonder, "Am I doing this correctly?"  My intention is to guide and teach each patient how he or she can best meet the demands of their desired lifestyle.  Practices include postural correction, strength training, normalizing restricted mobility, and obtaining proper flexibility and balance.  For some this may result in living pain free, able to work and spend quality time with their families. For others it may provide the ability to participate on local sport teams or in races.  For some it could simply mean being able to get out of bed on their own each morning.  

My work leaves me with a great sense of accomplishment knowing that I have had a true an impact on my patients’ lives and can improve their quality of life.

Why I Do What I Do

After working in the corporate world for over 20 years, in 2003 I made the decision to follow my passion to help others experience the benefits of massage and enrolled in massage school, at the ripe young age of 40!

When I was a child I was diagnosed with a mild case of scoliosis, curvature of the spine. Nonetheless, I was active and participated in many sports.  I had my first professional massage when I was 18 years old. I was home on a college break suffering from pinched nerves in my neck and terrible low back pain.  A friend suggested I see his chiropractor, who recommended that, in conjunction with his therapy, I get a professional massage from the therapist in his group. That massage greatly increased the mobility in my neck and I felt tremendously energized when the session was over.  

From that time forward, I have used massage to manage stress, reduce anxiety and fatigue.  Regular massage therapy has also given me improved concentration, greater flexibility, a calmer heart, and increased energy, not to mention so many fewer aches and pains!  I love being a massage therapist and am so delighted that my work brings these same benefits to my clients. 

I incorporate a lifetime of knowledge into my massage practice, utilizing my intuition and personal experiences, as well as formal training.  An initial intake interview with each new client helps determine your level of wellness and therapy goals, and together we create a plan to reach those goals. Your session with me should be as unique as you are.

Chronic Pain Can Ruin Your Life

MediCalm™ Pain Relief Therapy Can Restore It

The Center For Health Renewal is very pleased to be offering a revolutionary new solution for chronic pain.  Introducing MediCalm™ Pain Relief Therapy, a safe, effective, non-invasive therapy for patients suffering with severe pain, including oncologic and neuropathic pain resistant to morphine and other harmful narcotic painkillers. 

  

 

MediCalm™ Therapy is based on the Calmare MC-5A Therapy device that has been successfully used in Europe for several years.  Newly FDA approved and now available in the US, this therapy and the remarkable science behind it is truly pioneering.  Its results are equally extraordinary.  What’s more, our office is the only local facility to offer MediCalm™ Pain Relief Therapy.  Explained most simply, MediCalm™ Therapy actually creates new neurons that carry a No-Pain message to your brain, canceling out the ingrained pain messages that have turned your symptoms into a chronic state.

  

 

 

 

We have organized all the information about this new treatment: how it works and why it works, patient testimonials, and downloadable research studies with result graphs, on a new web site that we highly encourage you to visit.  Equally important, this new site also explains what MediCalm™ Pain Relief therapy is not, because it truly is unlike anything ever offered before in the realm of pain relief here in the US. 

  

 

 

 

We’ve all seen advertisements from pain relief centers touting new devices that are really nothing more than previously offered treatments available in a different form.  Our MediCalm™ Therapy is genuinely new, completely ground breaking, highly effective, and entirely safe.  Visit the new site.  Learn why this new therapy is so unique and successful, and see how MediCalm™ could be the solution for your chronic pain or for someone you care about.  Here's the link: www.MediCalmPainReliefTherapy.com
