Why We Exist

At Play & Beyond, we champion whole-person wellness across all stages of life—from childhood through adulthood—by offering holistic, evidence-based solutions that blend physical therapy, wellness technology, and preventative care.

​

Our mission is twofold: to support children with chronic health issues or movement disorders in achieving optimal physical function and energy balance, and to promote health and vitality among adults, including employees in the workplace. Through strategic partnerships with community organizations, government agencies, and corporations, we extend our services beyond individual care—creating healthier communities and more resilient workforces.

​

We combine innovative wellness tools—such as red light therapy, sound therapy, PEMF, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy—with personalized support, education, and collaboration. Whether helping a child reach developmental milestones or supporting an adult in managing stress and chronic pain, our integrative approach nurtures both short-term relief and long-term health outcomes.

​

By embedding our services into community spaces and workplaces, we offer accessible, impactful interventions that foster productivity, well-being, and quality of life—because thriving individuals build thriving families, organizations, and communities.

ABOUT ME

I’m a pediatric physical therapist and holistic wellness consultant with a passion for helping both children and adults thrive. My work began with a deep commitment to helping caregivers unlock their child’s potential—focusing on movement, energy, and functional ability within everyday environments. I use a unique blend of neurodevelopmental strategies, socio-emotional tools, and holistic methods to support children with chronic health issues or movement challenges. My goal is always to help families integrate these tools into daily life in ways that are sustainable, empowering, and effective.

​

As my practice has grown, so has my mission. I now support adults—including caregivers and employees—by offering access to advanced wellness technologies and functional health tools that address stress, fatigue, pain, and performance. Whether in the home, clinic, or workplace, I believe that creating the right environment can spark meaningful change in how people feel and function.

​

I’m a strong advocate for collaboration—working alongside personal trainers, chiropractors, holistic providers, and even furniture designers to optimize movement and energy in real-world spaces like homes, daycares, and offices.

​

When I’m not serving families and professionals, I’m spending time with my three children or practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with my husband. Holistic wellness isn’t just part of my work—it’s a way of life I’m constantly evolving and sharing with others.

MY APPROACH

Health, Movement, Wellbeing

Health matters. Health is wealth. And movement is a form of healing!

​

My approach is rooted in the belief that repetition builds confidence, function, and resilience—whether in a growing child or a busy adult. I guide parents through fun, repeatable activities that help their child feel safe and motivated to explore new movements and experiences. For adults, I focus on accessible practices and technologies that support energy, balance, stress recovery, and physical function—especially for those navigating caregiving, chronic stress, or work demands.

​

As a therapist, I’ve always looked at the whole person—not just physical development. Emotional well-being, environment, stress, and nutrition all play a role in how someone moves, heals, and thrives. That’s why I now incorporate nutritional insights and wellness technology into my care, helping clients of all ages reach their highest level of function in a sustainable, empowering way.
