Ashley Kumar is a Doctor of Physical Therapy that practices holistic wellness in her rehab approach. She has broken away from traditional Western medicine where many therapists are having to treat patients’ symptoms after an injury or surgery has occurred and instead trying to stay on the forefront to prevent the problem from ever occurring. She realizes the human body is so inter-connected and that it’s not all about muscles, tendons, and bones that cause orthopedic injuries, pain, and even neurological disease, but rather there is connection to one’s mental state and total well-being. Ashley uses Kinesio Tape and the Graston technique based on individual needs. She has special training to work with Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and other neurological diseases, as well as cancer survivors through the STAR program. 

Her focus starts by working on the alignment of the spine to enter into one’s total well-being. Then she teaches her clients how to move and BREATH correctly with optimal alignment through various neuromuscular re-education methods. She then branches out from there depending on each patient’s needs. Her main objective is to get her patients moving pain-free whether that be finding a healthy workout program or being able to pick up grandkids.
