Inspiration:

• Bruce Lee’s philosophy has served as a foundation to my physical therapy approach and life itself. His wisdom of being adaptable like water resonates in my therapeutic practice. I adjust to each client’s unique context while obeying fundamental principles of physical therapy, while not being constrained by them. To use what is useful, and reject what is not. This philosophy encourages me to continually challenge norms and cultivate innovative methodologies.
