Mission Statement and Vision of TheraTrain

Mission: To improve individual people’s strength and athletic performance while decreasing pain and risk for injury.

To improve athletic programs all over the state of Florida by performing proper athletic screens, creating pre-sport warm ups and training programs designed to decrease the team’s risk for injury and optimizing muscular performance.

I am also a concierge Physical Therapist treating any diagnosis from post-surgical to vertigo. I have worked in every setting of Physical Therapy in my 11 years as a Physical Therapist and the one consistent thing I have found is patients have better outcomes and satisfaction when they get the 1:1 attention they deserve. The current insurance model treats people as just a number and often times people are being treated alongside one if not two or more other patients. In my opinion that is not what Physical Therapy was meant to be and it is not quality care if your time is shared with someone else’s time. You will always have the 1:1 time you sign up for at my clinic.

Vision: The number of non-contact sports related injuries continues to increase each year. There are currently over 250,000 reported annually and more than 70% are caused by something mechanically off in the athlete versus a trauma. My vision is to decrease that number by using a unique full body assessment and screening created specifically to identify risks for injury. Once the risk has been identified, I create an individualized program for the athlete and/or athletic program to reduce the risk of injury, decrease pain, improve mobility and optimize overall athletic performance.

I have spent the past few years developing this program and my athletes consistently demonstrate:

  • Decreased pain

  • Objective improvements in strength/muscle output

  • Improved joint mobility

  • Improved vertical jump

  • Improved 60M sprint time

  • Improved Y Balance Performance - outcomes measure used to assess risk for a non-contact lower extremity injury in athletes

  • Improved overall athletic performance

My goal with this company is to educate you, my clients and athletes, to better understand your body so you can recognize WHY and when something is “off.” I don’t believe in the “push through it” mentality. I believe in listening to your body. Pain is your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. My job, as your Physical Therapist and mentor, is to find out what is wrong and give you the proper guidance and exercises to become your optimal physical self. My head to toe assessment will give you all of the information and tools you need to keep your body physically healthy and balanced for decades to come.

I have already shown objective improvements and decreased risk for injury in athletes on the Vero Beach Volleyball team, the Vero Lacrosse team, The Vero Elite team and more. With my assessment and treatment the athletes are improving to full 5/5 strength in all extremities and with the use of my BAlign bowtie they are maintaining normal/symmetrical alignment throughout their spine.
