As someone who has been struggling with the aftermath of a knee injury with surgical repair that completely exacerbated the pains associated to my scoliosis - I now for the first time - in a very long time, have the knowledge and tools to be nearly completely pain-free and visibly much more aligned than I have been in years. Dr. Sandy's hands-on therapy coupled with specific exercises to help with my scoliosis condition has been the best thing I've done for myself, probably ever!

Sandy at Resonance is truly an example of you get what you pay for. If your looking for a run of the mill therapist who will give you exercises you can find on the internet then she is not for you. But if your looking for someone who will truly take the time to understand your physical limitations and help you by designing a path for you to get better then do yourself a favor and give her a call. Yes shes expensive but shes worth every penny. I saw other therapists first but all I got were cookie-cutter exercises and stretches. Sandy really dives in to what ails you and provides a holistic

Prior to visiting Resonance Physical Therapy, I had sought help for scoliosis from various chiropractors and physical therapist for over 24 years. Sandy has proved to be the most knowledgeable and caring out of all whom I have known. Her personalized care helped me learn better how my body works, how to use it, care for it, and strengthen it. I graduated physical therapy two centimeters taller, with a helpful exercise plan, and growing strength for my daily tasks. I think Sandys one-to-one care paired with her knowledge, skill, and personalized application is what makes her practice excellent
