Michelle offers an integrated approach to care. She is both a licensed physical therapist and a massage therapist, which facilitates a fluid transition between both techniques when she treats patients. She has been a practitioner since 1999. Michelle has worked in many environments including sports medicine/orthopedics, neurological rehab, acute care and long term care.

An extensive range of continuing education has enabled Michelle to evolve as a manual therapist. Classes she has taken include muscle energy techniques of the lumbosacral, rib/thoracic and cervical spine; kinetic control; neural dynamics; cranial mobilization; and the completion of a year-long spinal manipulation program.  

This wide variety of clinical experience has allowed her the knowledge base and opportunity to start her private practice,  Releaf Therapy, in 2004. The vision of Releaf Therapy is to offer an integrated approach to care that is patient centered. All treatments are private one-on-one. There are no assistants, and time is solely spent hands on with the practitioner. Michelle is a firm believer of patient advocacy both assisting the patient on the right direction of care, but also teaching the patient how to take control, and really be an integral part of their own health.

Most insurance accepted including Medicare, or there is a private pay option for both physical therapy and/or massage therapy appointments.
