A Functional Manual Therapy®
Physical Therapists, PTs, are healthcare professionals who evaluate and treat individuals who have medical problems or other health related conditions that limit their ability to function optimally. PTs utilize treatment techniques to promote movement, reduce pain, restore function and prevent disability. In addition, PTs work with individuals to prevent the loss of mobility before it occurs by developing fitness and wellness oriented programs for healthier and more active lifestyles.
A Functional Manual Therapist®, FMT, is a physical therapist who has taken post-graduate coursework with an emphasis on restoration of an individual’s optimal function. An FMT addresses the body as a whole and identifies the source of an individual’s loss of function and utilizes manual, hands-on, techniques to improve strength, endurance and neuromuscular control with the ultimate goal of achieving optimal human movement.

OUR CLIENT’S SAY
Stacey is the BEST physical therapist and seeing her for my numerous pains is exactly what I needed. She has done so much to correct my posture, strengthen my back muscles and even correct the curvature in my spine. I know now that much of the pain I am experiencing is from accidents and injuries I had growing up, which have not come to the surface until now. What a blessing to have found Stacey and to be seeing her.
Stacey is the very best at what she does. My neighbor referred her, and I thank her for the referral any’ chance I get. Stacey is professional, knowledgeable and is devoted to fixing what is wrong and taking away the pain! She is compassionate, yet not afraid to push her patients to reach their full potential. Her goal is to make her patients whole and to allow them to resume their normal life. She succeeds, and I highly endorse her.
I was originally recommended to see Stacey for my shoulder after rotator cuff surgery. The shoulder was very painful and did not seem to heal correctly. I had better movement, but there was still a lot of pain despite getting several injections after the surgery. Turns out that I needed to have a second surgery to release the nerve which Stacey suspected.
After healing from the second surgery, 6 months later, I had extensive abdominal surgery which seemed to worsen my back and hip pain post surgery. So, I went back to Stacey to get some relief.
