Pain in your body can really wear you down. Sometimes it's from an injury that everybody else thinks you should have healed from by now. Many times it shows up with no identifiable cause, and can feel really frustrating and scary. After trying to ignore the pain for a while, you decided you need to get help. Maybe you have spent a lot of money and time going to doctors and other practitioners.
You've gotten your hopes up time and again, only to be disappointed by the results, or worse, been told there is nothing that can be done, or that your pain is "all in your head."

At Balanced Physical Therapy, we have helped hundreds of people just like you to get back to living an active, fully engaged life.

About Me

Hi! I'm Judi Nelson, and I am so glad you've made your way to my website.
Since you've made it this far, you've probably noticed that Balanced Physical Therapy is not your "normal" Physical Therapy practice.
This is definitely a reflection of the owner.
I never quite fit in in physical therapy school.
My classmates did their research projects on "Gait Analysis in the Geriatric Population post Total Hip Arthroplasty" I did mine on "Chi and Energy Healing." Though I got good grades and learned a ton about the anatomy and physiology of the human body, I always had the vague feeling that there was some crucial element missing from my education.

You were injured many months or even years ago, you've tried numerous doctors, drugs and therapies, but nothing has given you long lasting relief or a return of your quality of life.
Your pain just started one day without any specific cause you can remember.
Since then is has gotten progressively worse, and now you aren't able to do things you used to do.
Sure you've had aches and pains before, but nothing that has lasted this long or affected your life this much.
You have had some trauma in your life, maybe physical, maybe mental or emotional, and you know that your current physical pain is somehow related to what happened to you.

My Approach

Understand and feel how the interconnectedness of your body can make a problem in one area cause pain in another area, and what to do with this information.
Understand the cycle of trauma and how a trauma not attended to can cause pain months or even years later, and how to deal with those traumas in the present.
Recognize how the ways you are using your body every day are contributing to your pain, and what to do to change that.
Have practical tools that help you listen to your body when you have pain, and know what to do to help yourself.

Pilates

Do you want to find exercise that helps you love your body and makes life easier and more fun?
You remember what it was to be a little kid, just moving your body and exploring how it worked because it was fun?
The things you would discover by pretending to be an animal or a plane, or just spinning around and dancing?
For most of us, by the time we reach our thirties, these fun excursions into our body are nothing but a wistful cloudy memory.
Most of us have pain or tightness or tension that makes being that carefree a thing of the past, and many of us have learned to fear moving our bodies due to injuries we have sustained throughout our life.

Emotional Release
Report
Many people who suffer from chronic pain have histories of trauma and abuse.
Myofascial Release is wonderful for helping relieve the physical pain, and often helps you get in touch with how these traumatic experiences are still affecting your body.
Much of the time people are able to release the emotional component of their pain with out needing additional mental health care.
As myofascial release therapists, we are not psychologists or counselors.
Our skills in dealing with emotion lie in helping you feel how your emotions and belief systems affect your body, and then being present with you as you feel what you need to do with that awareness.
