- UltrasoundOur PTs are cross-trained in Pilates, which sets them apart from other medical professionals. Patients at ProHealth graduate with some basic knowledge of Pilates, allowing many to begin private instruction or classes to continue to build core strength and balance. While under PT care, a patient may receive healing modalities like ultrasound therapy, dry needling, and a variety of muscle work and exercises to improve their health outcomes. While other clinics may double book, each patient at ProHealth can expect that they will have one-on-one time with a physical therapist or physical therapy assistant. And the treatment will always be customized for the patient’s situation.
- OrthopedicsDr. Staples earned her BS and Master of Physical Therapy from University of Evansville (Evansville, IN). While there, she explored different ways to enhance her own exercise routine. That was when she discovered Pilates through Brook Siler’s book, The Pilates Body, as she was seeking change in her exercise. The further she delved into the work, the greater connection she saw with her physical therapy profession. While attending Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions for her PhD work in Orthopedics and Sports Science, she completed her comprehensive Pilates teacher training through Polestar® Pilates Education. This credential allowed her to complete her dissertation in April 2011 utilizing Pilates, The Effect of Standing Pilates on the Aging Female Population.
