Christina’s favorite part of being a physical therapist is seeing the empowerment patient’s gain once they learn how to achieve and many times surpass the function they had lost. She says “it’s exciting to see patients gain confidence in all areas of their life as they learn to gain some control of their physical health.” Christina enjoys treating all orthopedic conditions from the neck and spine to upper and lower extremities as well as all pelvic conditions both female and male. She says “I enjoy working at Thirty One PT where the patient and I have a full hour every appointment to give specialized, personal, one-on-one care. I have the flexibility to address the root causes of my patient’s complaints. It’s an incredibly rewarding experience.”
