Physical therapy should be a staple in your overall wellness, not only reserved for when you get injured. How you move is like the weather dictating the swells and surf. You can only move so poorly for so long before the volume and intensity of your activity are too much for your tissues and body to handle: that’s injury.

Your movement should be routinely checked, like check-ups with your physician or getting your teeth cleaned with your dentist. That’s where Reframe Physical Therapy and Wellness wants to change your life. Let us screen your movement, identify and correct any dysfunctional patterns, and build a program or work with your trainer to keep you strong. Once your movement patterns are functional, it’s a simple routine and periodic check-in. We want to keep you away from ever needing rehab. Let’s start before you have any pain.

Body awareness is not reserved for the elite athlete. Every individual can and should be attuned to their body, what it feels like to move, how to understand and be aware of the information your body is sending you, how your emotions and stress manifest physically, and most importantly, how to properly breathe. Chances are you just turned your attention to your breathing after reading this, perhaps noticing you were holding your breath or spontaneously had a large inhale. That’s the first step in becoming more connected to your body.

At Reframe Physical Therapy and Wellness we help you understand how your body moves, how to regulate your nervous system, how to correct your breathing, and how to eliminate any adversarial disposition toward your body.

High performance is multifactorial and not only a result of high physical capacity and skill. Mental attitude, awareness, and ability to regulate the nervous system in high-stress environments distinguish between the “good” and the “great.”

At Reframe Physical Therapy and Wellness, we approach developing physical and mental capacities as opposite sides of the same coin. They cannot be separated if you want to achieve your peak potential. This is why we develop mental focus, clear goals, stress regulation, and mindfulness practices from the start.

Historically, the healthcare community has not always provided equal care to all individuals and communities, and instead, often contributed to the trauma. Reframe Physical Therapy and Wellness aims to be the change in San Diego and the broader healthcare and wellness community. We welcome and actively support all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identification, race, religion, or ethnicity. You are welcome here!
