Motion Matters is not your ordinary clinic!

We specialize in compassionate care focused on YOU and YOUR health! You and your story are unique, and we understand that MATTERS!

We want to revolutionize how you approach healthcare by seamlessly blending conventional medicine with holistic approaches that empower you to own your own health. We envision a community where everyone receives authentic support on their journey to holistic wellness, breaking free from the constraints of chronic pain through personalized lifestyle interventions and expertise in addressing and alleviating the challenges of complex pain.

At Motion Matters we do things a little differently, and we like it that way!

Founded as a response to frustrations with the limitations of the traditional insurance-based medical model, we offer a comprehensive and empowering approach where YOU are our only focus. Our providers specialize in personalized physical therapy interventions, holistic well-being, lifestyle medicine, and advanced expert care for patients managing chronic and complex pain conditions. We aim to provide all our patients with the tools they need for living full, independent lives!

To grow as a local leader in holistic and complex pain care and trusted providers in personalized physical therapy, we rely on evidence-based interventions and fostering healthy community relationships. We utilize group and individual yoga, along with workshops and classes on evidence-based approaches for optimizing personal wellness, restorative sleep, nutrition, and stress management strategies.

She is truly a leader in changing the paradigm of how chronic pain is treated and she's an expert in the field. We are lucky to have her practicing and seeing individuals in eastern Iowa.
