About Tara

I want to begin by saying welcome. I am glad you are here and so happy to share my mission with you. However, before we dive into that, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have been a licensed physical therapist for 18 years and worked in every setting including acute care hospitals, inpatient rehabilitation facilities and outpatient. My career took a pivot in 2015 when I decided to leave the big hospital systems and start my own private practice in a 400 square foot office space.  Staring out on my own, with little income, I was forced to be creative in how I would deliver care without all the expensive equipment (I had been used to). And, I am proud to announce it IS possible to deliver the same quality of care with cheaper (sometimes homemade), products. 

That led me here. It led me to you. Or at least the thought of you. How could I share what I had learned with you and empower you to take ownership of your rehabilitation?

The Inspiration for Rehab HQ

You want to get better. And, you will do whatever it takes to make that happen. I know this is true because I have seen it on my patient’s faces for over 20 years. I hear it in their voice.  That being said, I have seen people spend thousands of dollars buying stuff with the hope that this might be the “magic pill” that is going to give them their old life back.

So, first and foremost, I want to clear the air. There is no magic pill. And no amount of money is going to replace putting in the hard work required for recovery. However, there are some tips and tricks that I have learned over the years that can make the process “run more smoothly”. And long story short, this website was “conceived” and (after months and months of hard work), was “born” ?
