BACKGROUND/EDUCATION

Claire Wong is a licensed Physical Therapist combining traditional physical therapy with complementary therapies.  A physical therapy evaluation will provide an appropriate combination of an objective assessment of movement and function with an integrated client-centered approach to find the best combination of traditional and complementary therapies for each client.  In a physical therapy session, offerings of core physical therapy services and complementary therapies are combined to achieve optimal outcomes in strength, mobility, pain reduction and functional skills.  Examples of complementary therapies offered are Craniosacral Therapy, Shiatsu massage, and yoga.  The concept that we all are one and are interconnected is reflected in the collaboration and support with all the team members at HeartLight Healing Arts.
