Bio

Lisa enjoys splinting the hand, wrist and elbow as well as treating the entire upper extremity for a variety of diagnoses and injuries, and post-operative rehab. She is a member of the American Society of Hand Therapy and has completed GRASTON M1 Basic Training. One of her greatest joys working here is being able to help individuals of all ages return to being able to participate in a skill, job, sport, or hobby that their injury has prevented them from doing, and being able to help creatively direct that process during therapy.

When Lisa is not working and the weather is nice, you may find her hiking on the Appalachian trail, kayaking / stand up paddleboarding, or camping with her family.
