Integrative Physical Therapy

Integrative Physical Therapy

A multi-dimensional approach focusing on the interconnections of the mind, body and spirit.

Integrative Physical Therapy is a holistic approach to rehabilitation and wellness that emphasizes the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit.  This therapeutic method recognizes that pain or dysfunction in one area of the body can often be linked to imbalances or issues elsewhere.  Practitioners of this approach utilize a combination of techniques. The intuitive aspect of this approach involves listening to the client’s body and responding to its unique needs, rather than adhering strictly to predetermined treatment protocols. By addressing the root causes of physical ailments and promoting overall well-being, whole body, intuitive, integrative physical therapy aims to restore optimal function and help individuals achieve lasting health and vitality.

Integrative Physical Therapy from Liz Gallelli PT, DPT is greatly influenced by the practices of:

Visceral Mobilization - the use of specific touch to restore the inherent motion of each organ and associated ligament structures for improved function and to re-establish the brain-body connection.

CranioSacral Therapy - a gentle, whole-body treatment that releases restrictions within the CranioSacral system and surrounding tissues to improve overall wellness and vitality. Learn More…
