I’m Dr. Rochelle McPherson, your ‘on-call’ movement, physical health, and pain expert

Together, we’ll use the science of movement, exercise, manual therapy, and pain education to help you get rid of pain, heal, and return to value-based living, not just getting by.

 

How We’ll Work Together

The Treatment Program

The Treatment Program is for you if you are experiencing a new or chronic pain that is limiting your ability to do the things you love, want, or need to do each day. It is also for you if you have tried PT in the past without a great outcome. It's time to recover and reclaim your life.

The Prevention Check-In

The Prevention Check-In is for you if you are looking for answers about aches and pains that worry you, or if you are having trouble with certain movements or activities. Have you had an injury or pain in the past, and are worried about it happening again? Let's do a thorough evaluation to give you answers and confidence in your body and movement.

“Rochelle has been the instrument that has brought me back to a much healthier place of movement. Working together, I got to a place where now I can get out and move more with my improved health.”

— Theresa

What’s Different About Rochelle’s PT Studio?

Have you had physical therapy in the past, and it didn’t help? And now you're skeptical to return to physical therapy after having a bad experience? Just as our doctors and surgeons vary widely in their skills, bedside manner, outcomes, and experience, so do physical therapists. Unfortunately, it’s commonplace to be referred somewhere by your doctor, ending up with a physical therapist you didn't have a chance to ‘background check’ and pick based on your specific needs. Physical therapy with Rochelle is a collaboration with you, chosen by you. It’s an alliance based on listening to and hearing your story, with one-on-one attention, a calm space for treatment, and explanations for all your questions.

Is This Style of PT Right for You?

 

Rochelle’s Physical Therapy is for people who:

  • Are serious about maintaining their health and wellness through all ages!

  • Are dealing with an ongoing, nagging issue that limits your activities or interrupts your day

  • Are frustrated with the lack of improvement with other treatment, or unsuccessful PT in the past

  • Are skeptical about having surgery

  • Have stopped doing what they love due to fear of movement or uncertainty


  • Want to have a connection their physical therapist the same way we are familiar with having an ongoing relationship with our massage therapist, chiropractor, or family doctor. Easily accessible to help you, whenever you need it!
