Danielle was a competitive and dedicated synchronized figure skater growing up, earning an opportunity to be a part of Team USA. She competed for 14 years, and coached for another three while finishing her physical therapy schooling. During her time competing, Danielle sustained several knee injuries and underwent her own courses of physical therapy treatments throughout her skating career. It was through these experiences that Danielle fell in love with the idea of rehabilitating patients using manual interventions and targeted exercise. Danielle is passionate about helping people return to their former lifestyles and applies the same dedication she had for skating to her patients’ wellbeing.

With her background in athletics, Danielle has a special interest in treating active individuals, especially figure skaters and dancers. She loves the challenge of balancing flexibility, strength, and stability in order for these athletes to perform at their best.

Danielle tries to motivate her patients to stay active and heal their bodies from the root cause of their issues.
