Improving movement, health, and overall well-being

 

Yvette Fawzi Physical Therapy is a private practice that focuses on improving movement awareness, overall health and well being. Yvette has practiced physical therapy since 1993, strain counterstrain since 2001, Feldenkrais® since 2005 and fascial counterstrain since 2016.

Yvette uses fascial counterstrain, a gentle hands on technique that releases fascia. Fascia covers all the systems in the body (bones, muscles, nerves, organs, veins, arteries) and when there is inflammation or irritation in the system from injury, chronic postural strain or surgery, it can cause protective guarding or vasospasm that can overtime limit mobility, cause pain and create dysfunction. This technique is gentle and has a diagnostic flow to help get to the core of the problem. Combined with an intuitive sense, her skilled hands are then able to “listen to the body” and treat each person based on their needs.  

An ideal therapist for any chronic pain or movement problem, Yvette particularly enjoys working with postpartum women and issues around pelvic pain and dysfunction as well as the general population. The goal is restoring strength and vitality. She has helped many clients in their journey to feeling their best.
