PHYSICAL THERAPY

We are your current body's engineer & mechanic.
And your future body's architect.

What Is Physical Therapy?

Licensed doctors of Physical Therapy are movement experts who improve quality of life through prescribed exercise, hands-on care, and client education.

We assess and help transform all systems that contribute to healthy or restricted movement (nerves, joints, fascia, muscle, patterns, mind, emotions, habits) . We help you heal, move, sit, work, love and play without pain.


We take time to review your story and medical history to understand what your body is saying—and what needs to be shifted.

How It Works
  • Healthy movement & restoration are some of the most powerful organic medicines we have. They positively alter how all organs adapt & thrive. We strategically and positively apply/prescribe stimuli that cause positive shifts- sometimes instantly, and sometimes over time.
  • We use hands-on methods to relieve pain and restriction. This may include joint mobilization, spine mobilization, myofascial mobilization, stretching, neuromuscular reeducation, fascial release, scar tissue mobilization, craniosacral therapy, visceral mobilization, and more.
  • We fix compensatory movement patterns, cultivate stable, healthy joint mechanics, and restore youthful patterns.
  • Travel, garden, sleep, walk, run, ride, hike, play, dance, make love. We can help you do all of this confidently and with greater ease.

THE VITAM PHYSICAL THERAPY DIFFERENCE

“This is the only Physical Therapy experience I’ve had where my therapist works harder than I do!”

Our strategic, balanced, integrative approach includes:
  • Knowing when other modalities need to be brought in like acupuncture to remediate pain and improve life force energy flow.
  • Understanding that sometimes the last thing you need is more overload.
  • Removing barriers to progress & optimizing restoration
  • Recognizing signs that may call for blood work, imaging, or referral to a specialist.
  • Working alongside a Physician for help with tests or prescriptions.
  • Being your doctors for life. No injury or pain required to come and see us!

We promise:
  • Your session will be relaxing and rejuvenating.
  • To combine your words & intuition with our hands, eyes, experience, intuition, and education—to guide your unique 1:1 session.

Gail Eberharter Rankin, MD .

Dr. Pearson is exceptional. She doesn't just give a bunch of exercises. She uses hands-on techniques and takes time to discover underlying restrictions and contributing factors. After seeing 4 other PTs, she’s the one who finally got to the root of the issue.

Joan Haynes, NMD .

Kathy takes her time with patients and truly listens. She integrates a variety of therapy modalities using a whole-person approach. Most importantly, she consistently has success treating all manner of physical problems.

Vitam Client .

I’d recommend Vitam to people who need physical therapy, especially when they've "tried everything." Kathleen's extensive knowledge and unique approach along with her "magic hands,'' make for a truly unique and effective healing experience.

    We look forward to treating you.
