Resonance Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: I truly appreciate Emily's holistic style and integrative approach to physical therapy. She is caring, intuitive, and a pleasure to work with personally and professionally. She quickly helped me resolve some chronic issues in my sacrum related to old injuries I had sustained in multiple car and snowboarding accidents, that had been an unsolved puzzle for years. I love when I have the opportunity to refer friends or clients her way, because I know she'll take great care of them and help them progress on their path to physical wellness.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had several injuries and I always seek out Emily for her top notch physical therapy services. Each time I feel she listens to me and my body and gives the best care! I highly recommend Emily.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been to a number of physical therapists and even chiropractors over the years for chronic pain and never had any resolution with chronic pain. After 3 months with Emily, I am already seeing improvement with pain as well as other health issues. I appreciate that in her practice of physical therapy focuses on Functional Manual Therapy which differs from the standard approach to PT. I am truly grateful that I found her!

Experiencia fantástica: Hands down one of the best physical therapists ever!! Emily is extremely knowledgeable and very good at what she does. She has helped me tremendously in just the short amount of time I’ve been seeing her. Would 100% recommend her to anyone!!!

Experiencia fantástica: In 2018 I went through 6 months of chemotherapy for Stage 4 cancer. With remission came intense pain and stiffness. I had scar tissure on my spine, shoulder blades, and a mass in my upper abdomen left from the football size tumor that had invaded my entire abdominal cavity. The swelling from all this stuff was the source of chronic pain and loss of balance, Until I met Emily... The work she has done to break up the scar tissue has been amazing. 90% of the problems have been resolved. In the Spring of 2021 I began treatment with Emily at Resonance PT. She began using microcurrent treatment as part of the physical therapy sessions. It has been unbelievable how rapidly my swelling and pain continue to descrease with its use. As complications from cancer leftovers continue to arise, such as esophageal restriction from swelling, she continues to correct them and it is without costly intrusive surgery. She has helped me develop a stronger healthier body than I had before cancer. Emily is awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: Sometimes with a touch of grace, even when the world comes crashing down on you, a special person comes into your life to help you pickup the pieces, heal the broken parts, and see the world anew. Emily was that person for me and I am forever grateful! Six years ago I was in a climbing accident that could have set me up for a lifetime of chronic pain and disability. Caught in heavy rockfall, I experienced several direct blows to my head, arms, and hands, while experiencing additional trauma from whiplash and impact with the ground. I was incredibly fortunate to have survived but emerged from the incident in severe pain and suffering the dizzying symptoms of concussion. In the months following the accident, my nervous system went into complete disarray and even though I have a high tolerance for pain, my ability to be and feel safe/grounded in the world literally began to fall apart. I could not go anywhere with crowds, listen to music, tolerate bright sunlight, and even the slightest bit of stress would send my heart rate and blood pressure to dangerous levels. It became extremely difficult to read or even carry a conversation with my closest friends and family. Seeking help from my worker's comp-sanctioned doctors, I sat miserably under the fluorescent lights, heart racing, as my doctors blamed my slow recovery on my reluctance to take the opioids and muscle relaxers that they had prescribed. They told me that I had experienced a concussion and would have to learn how to deal with it. In fairness, there was truly not much that they could do within the insurance-based, time-constrained system that they operated in, but thankfully after some prodding, one of my providers finally used the powers that he did have to write me a prescription for physical therapy. Settling into Emily’s nurturing office-space for my first appointment, I felt a sense of comfort and hope that had alluded me since my injury. Emily’s compassionate spirit and amazing ability to think outside the box and see the body as an integrated system (and not just a government-approved condition list) helped me to begin to believe that recovery would indeed be possible. It would be a journey, but Emily’s persistent encouragement, combined with her incredible expertise in anatomy and manual therapy helped restore balance to my nervous system and regain alignment, strength, and mobility, allowing my body to heal. Building on our sessions together in the clinic, she empowered me to take charge of my healing with a progressive home exercise program that helped relieve pain, while restoring function and building confidence in my ability to heal. I feel beyond fortunate that in my darkest, most challenging hours to have been granted the opportunity to work with Emily. Not only did she help me recover from my physical injuries, but her mastery of physical therapy, her dedication to her patients, her belief in possibility, and her continuous exploration of how to make the world a more embodied place continue to inspire me. She is a gifted physical therapist and an all-around bright light in the world! I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking expert care and holistic support in healing injury, regaining alignment, strength, mobility, and physical resiliency.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Emily for over 7 years for chronic back and hip pain due to multiple injuries over time. She is very thorough in assessing my body mechanics and diagnosing the areas that need work. She is caring, compassionate, patient, extremely knowledgeable and encourages communication to flow in both directions. She specializes in manual therapy and is beyond exceptional with her hands. She is very good at problem solving the cause of my pain, and treats the source not just area of pain. Her practice also uses frequency specific micro current, which improved my disc and nerve inflammation, and improved my area specific flexibility and mobility . She tailors my exercise plans specifically to me and we work together in setting realistic goals. Emily has a positive attitude, keeping me from getting discouraged at times. She educates me on what we are doing and why, giving me the confidence in not only myself but our ability to work together as a team to improve my mobility, increase my strength and decrease my pain, allowing me to get back to active lifestyle. I am forever grateful for Emily at Resonance Physical Therapy and would definitely recommend her.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is different from any other healthcare provider that I’ve worked with, from the amount of time she spent treating me each visit to her persistence in identifying an issue. I initially presented to Emily years after a car accident for which I’d received minimal treatment. Emily’s initial evaluation was thorough and thoughtful. Rather than running through a scripted list of questions, Emily was curious, asking questions and watching me perform different movements to identify issues. She used a variety of modalities including manual manipulation which she is very good at, as well as frequency. Emily also prescribed targeted exercises that were doable and helpful, answered questions via email, and helped me remotely. Through Emily’s treatment, my body and mobility transformed. After years of pain and serious limitations, I can now workout without issue – something I didn’t think would happen post-car accident. And throughout my treatment with Emily, she was fun to work with and easy to talk to. I cannot recommend her enough! Emily is the best!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been seeing Emily for chronic headaches related to previous neck injuries. She is a fantastic physical therapist, and has helped me enormously. Her knowledge and attentiveness to my particular situation and problems are truly impressive. Many years ago I went to a different physical therapist for this issue, and felt like I was just given a standard protocol for neck injuries, without any particular attention to what was happening in my individual case. Needless to say, that didn't help me at all. The difference in that previous PT experience and my treatment with Emily are night and day! Recently, she started adding Frequency Specific Microcurrent treatments to my therapy. I'll admit that at first I was a bit skeptical, but it has helped me enormously! I highly recommend Emily and Resonance PT! This is the physical therapist to go to in Bellingham, especially if you're dealing with a chronic injury or pain and other PTs haven't been able to help.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been seeing Emily for whiplash pain caused from a car accident a few years ago. Her attention to detail, caring & professional treatment prompt a 5 star review. She takes the time to understand what you're experiencing & I know my care is tailored specifically for me. My neck & shoulders are happier & I can't thank or recommend her enough.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is great! Highly recommend Resonance Physical Therapy, by far the most comprehensive PT I've ever received!

Experiencia fantástica: I have seen Emily for a long term condition that I have had. Her innovative and successful approach made more difference for me than any other treatment I have had. She is kind, caring and knowledgeable and her sincere dedication has been very much appreciated.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is a gifted Therapist. Her attention to detail is wonderful. I have returned to a pain free life and I am deeply indebted to her. She is kind, understanding and non-judgemental. Between physical exercises, gentle massage and frequency specific micro-current, this old woman has found new life. Thank you Emily!

Experiencia fantástica: I specifically seek out physical therapist who have completed CFMT training as I feel from experience that their approach of looking at the whole body instead of an isolated pain is imperative for good health and body function. I came to Emily because I was dealing with a concussion and post concussion syndrome, and her background in cranial sacral and PT really helped decrease my symptoms and get energy back. She helped me feel more like myself, which is huge when your in the middle of recovery from an injury and can’t do the activities you love and which reconnect you to you. I have been to a lot of physical therapy in my life and Emily is incredibly knowledgeable and confident. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a physical therapist and then some.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is very knowledgeable and a great therapist. I have never felt better, than after working with her. Not only did I feel better physically, but mentally as well. She taught me alot about how to make changes to better myself. I highly recommend visiting Resonance Physical Therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: I love working with Emily. Her approach to physical therapy is unique in my experience. Her ability to look at your body mechanics to find the root cause of your symptoms create a long lasting solution to your problems.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is a wonderful physical therapist. She thoroughly evaluates your body movements then uses hands on treatment to address the problem. Her methods have relieved my pain and let me return to an active lifestyle.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily has an amazing ability to work on one area of the body to help alleviate another. I saw Emily for hip pain that was making it difficult to walk and care for my children. After only two sessions and some exercise at home I was able to return to running and still lift my children without pain. I greatly appreciate her knowledge.

Experiencia fantástica: Resonance P.T. is beyond exceptional. Emily not only has the knowledge and skills of an outstanding P.T. but seems to have a sixth sense and “magic fingers” that will discover and unlock the hidden issues that may be causing you pain. Her approach has helped me understand that sometimes, pain from one area of the body may be caused by another area of the body. From my experience she doesn’t back down from a good challenge and that is exactly what we have needed. Her practice uses Manual Therapy (she’s the absolute best), Exercise Re-education and Frequency Specific Micro-current. (We saw immediate improvement using this method. Including improved flexibility in the specific area.) Resonance P.T. is located in an easy to reach location with accessible street parking. Her studio is serene and peaceful. Excellent one on one experience. BTW her work with children is superior! I can never thank her enough for the healing we have received from her. To walk and play without pain is emotionally and physically priceless. Thank you Emily.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is top-notch! I have been going to Resonance PT to address long-standing back pain and movement limitations. I am continually impressed by her knowledge base and creative problem-solving. Emily is dedicated in finding solutions to help her clients -- both in near-term relief and long-term movement pattern re-education. I'm so grateful for her help in my healing journey. Highly recommend!
