How We Are Different

We practice functional medicine

All of our physical therapists are trained in functional medicine, which sets us apart from traditional physical therapy practices. We take the time to review your diet, lifestyle habits, movement, and medical history in order to paint a detailed picture of your wellness journey and create a customized Wellness and Movement Program.

We spend more time with you

During our first visit, we complete an Initial Wellness and Movement Evaluation to investigate markers of your health and movement quality. This intentional 1-hour and 30-minute session is designed to give us more time to understand your story and address your main health concerns. All follow-up sessions are 1 hour with a licensed physical therapist. We do not use aides or physical therapist assistants.

We are mobile

Our mobile platform allows us to come to you, so that you can save time, money, and stress by staying at home. It also allows us to identify simple changes to your home environment that may enhance your health and wellbeing.

Initial Wellness and Movement Evaluation

Our Initial Wellness and Movement Evaluation is designed to gather information about your health and movement quality. In this 1 hour and 30 min session, we collect vitals, measurements of your metabolism and body composition, and markers of your movement quality, such as posture, strength, and flexibility.

Real Testimonials From Our Clients

“Kayla has been great help over these past months in my surgical recovery. Her skill, professionalism, and friendly demeanor made a big difference! I’m pleased to recommend her service to others seeking Physical Therapy and integrative support!”

“After suffering with a left hip problem at the age of 25, and living through five hip surgeries (to include a total hip replacement at age 32, and a revision 15 years thereafter), I remained healthy and active, yet weak and sore. Kayla helped me with very basic exercises to build strength, and more importantly, confidence. She has taught me an incredible amount of exercises and workout routines, always emphasizing the correct technique, movement, and benefits.”

“I had a bad fall leading to ankle, knee, and back problems. Kayla used her skill and knowledge to guide me to a pain-free recovery. She challenged me with exercises that increased my strength, balance, and flexibility. Furthermore, I have Type 1 Diabetes and Kayla provided nutritional and lifestyle advice to keep my blood sugar levels in check. I have an upcoming surgery and I will be certain to enlist her support again!”

“Kayla was the physical therapist for my 102-year-old father for a few months. He is very hard-of-hearing and has a hard time focusing, but she was always very patient with him, and got him to listen and to follow her instruction. He had some pain whenever he moved and was reluctant to do so, but somehow Kayla got him to do the exercises while she learned how to minimize the discomfort. Highly recommend. 5 stars!”

"I love the confidence and new life I have attained as a result of working with Kayla Frost!"

Following my shoulder CTA I have been to massage therapists, physical rehab therapists, etc. and Kayla has made more progress in restoring my range of motion and reducing pain than all of the others put together.
