FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Holistic physical therapy is an approach to physical therapy that considers the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—rather than focusing solely on treating specific symptoms or injuries. It integrates conventional physical therapy techniques, such as exercises, manual therapy, and movement retraining, with complementary therapies and lifestyle modifications to address the root causes of pain, dysfunction, or imbalance.
Each appointment includes 1 full hour of 1:1 time with your physical therapist. We’ll work together on a schedule that fits into your life and health goals.
We know you have questions about insurance and pricing. We're happy to answer all of them with full transparency and to help you find care that works for you. Please give Alice, our patient care coordinator a call, at 612-440-8455 and she will be happy to help!
WHAT OUR PATIENTS ARE SAYING
"I visited you in January for my diastasis and abdominal muscle knot pain. I wanted to share that since our visit when you discovered that I have anterior pelvic tilt, my pain has subsided. My family and I are so very grateful to you. It’s been three years, two pregnancies, visits to 4 different PTs, OB appointments, many painful abdominal massages, completing the Mutu program, and lots of googling / crying / frustration to figure this out — but YOUR appointment helped me solve the problem. My diastases persists, but I’m now able to do the exercises better to manage it. The knot was the main problem — and now it is gone! I can’t thank you enough. You improved my quality of life so much."

"I sought out Rita's help after being diagnosed with POTS, hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, and pelvic floor dysfunction on top of other ongoing chronic illnesses. Her understanding of these complex syndromes, combined with her ability to see and treat the bigger picture, has been invaluable in helping me heal. Rita is extremely knowledgeable, respectful, compassionate, and kind. She makes herself available for questions between appointments. She's always willing to do research and provide further information on topics we've discussed. I'm so glad she's on my health care team, and I would highly recommend her to anyone!"

Owner, Founder
“As someone who has lived with chronic pain and illness myself, I know how isolating it can be. My goal is to provide a supportive, comfortable environment where you feel like you have someone on your team to help you understand the why behind what you are feeling and to create a personalized plan to guide you toward better health.
I believe a holistic approach to physical therapy is vital for healing; addressing the body as a whole, instead of as isolated parts. I am passionate about helping you connect the dots so that you can stop fighting against your body and instead feel empowered to work with it. It has been my dream to open a clinic where people living with pelvic pain and complex, chronic conditions are able to feel seen and understood and most importantly, to provide care that feels good.
Welcome to Intrinsic Physical Therapy & Wellness! I would be honored to be a part of your team.”
