Functional Movement Programs

I use a very thorough evaluation that use a combination of functional movement assessments(SMFA/FMS) Functional gait assessment, and orthopedic testing to investigate nagging injuries, and compensatory patterns from head to toes. Corrective exercises programs are designed to balance your body, progress your exercises personalized to your body and your goals.

Manual Therapy

Sometimes you just need an expert and intuitive set of hands to identify problem areas, release trigger points, and release guarded muscles. Danielle was trained as an LMT and also specializes in trigger point release. She also provides certified dry needling which can be very helpful for resetting and promoting healing for guarded, injured tissue.

Danielle Deschler, DPT

Here for you, as you are.

Danielle is a Pilates-based PT, movement specialist and manual therapist. I was trained in Stott Pilates with over 25 years of experience. I graduated from Pacific University with a Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2002 and Portland school of Massage in 1999. I am also certified in Dry needling, Kinesiotaping, functional movement screens, and functional gait assessment.

I like to focus on prevention, personalized corrective exercise programs, scar management, problem solving to design clients programs to balance their bodies. I also like to do what I call “tune ups”: when injuries need manual therapy and exercise progression to keep clients living and playing their best throughout their lifespan.

I stepped away from traditional therapy in 2023 so that I could provided better care, be more efficient, and treat the whole person.
