About Us
What is A Life In Balance?
Our Mission
A Life in Balance began as Dr. Paula’s attempt to bring together all of her different experiences and approaches that she cultivated over the years to the patients that she treats. Her goal was to provide patients one-on-one care that treated the body as a WHOLE and not the sum of its parts. People with injuries are often referred to by their injury - “the knee patient” or “the guy with the bad back”. At ALIB, a person is not just someone who has knee or back pain. Rather, you are an entire person and your entire body is treated at once. Pain is a symptom - it doesn’t always tell us WHAT the problem is. We treat the pain and symptoms by addressing the root cause using neurokinetic therapy, neuromotor and neurodevelopmental techniques, full body exercise, and global pattern improvements.
Over the years, we have incorporated more forms of whole-body care to the practice through occupational and massage therapy, as well as fitness, yoga and pilates. By taking care of your whole body, injury or no injury, we can best help keep you at your optimal level of function for many years to come!
