I became a Doctor of Physical Therapy after seeing a man with both legs amputated racing on a bike in Brooklyn. My passion for working with folks with amputations expanded to concussions and other "neurologic populations". It wasn’t until I fell rock climbing, however, that I understood what it is to be a patient in our medical system. As a patient I wanted my healthcare providers to see me as a whole person. As a clinician I wanted to treat people instead of diagnoses. I found the opportunity to acknowledge the mind-body connection during my yoga teacher training. I also found out, however, how little anatomy and physiology training yoga teacher trainings provide.

​

Jacoby Wellness is made up of Jacoby Physical Therapy and All In Practice. While the first is a space for clients needing rehabilitative services and the second is a yoga studio, they both have the same goal: to help humans to live vibrantly through confidence in motion. My experiences as a yogi, physical therapist, concussion patient, yoga instructor, and a human have all illuminated the same truth:

​

our bodies/minds are stunningly beautiful and made to be felt and used and loved without exception

​

I am here to help you find joy in the amazing miracle that is your body whether you an amputated-badass, fellow concussion survivor, long-time-human-pretzel-forming-yogi, or just a human looking for a community where all bodies are honored with love.

​

Come be awesome with me. And if not, go forth and keep being awesome.
