Dr. Priscilla Park, DPT, is a physical therapist and naturopath, who brings into her practice holistic approaches to healthcare and over 25 years of experience as a physical therapist., yogi/pilates practitioner, and dancer. She is a dance medicine specialist and a founding member of the ODC’s Healthy Dancer’s Clinic, since its inception in 1999. She was the Director for University of California Irvine’s Dance Medicine clinic between 1997-1999. She volunteers onsite for ODC/Dance Company performances, and has worked on Broadway shows in NYC, such as Lion King, 42nd Street, Aida, Hairspray, and more.

As a dancer and yoga practitioner most of her life, she has a keen eye for even the most subtle movement compensations or malalignments that can contribute to pain and injury and/or lead to re-current injuries. She is an expert in movement and biomechanical analysis, and can help identify your movement pattern faults, complex biomechanical problems, and muscle imbalances that are keeping you in pain and preventing you from reaching your fitness goals. Dr. Park will develop a personalized treatment plan that will address the root cause of your injury, body mechanics faults, strength and flexibility imbalances, and train proper muscle recruitment and coordination to ensure proper neuromuscular function.

She is constantly expanding her skills and learning innovative physical therapy techniques and approaches from the field’s most respected experts to get reliably excellent results. She has had extensive and thorough training and experience in the physical therapy techniques (including soft tissue techniques, myofascial/trigger point release), myofascial decompression “cupping,” osteopathic joint mobilization techniques, nutritional medicine, and other holistic modalities.

Dr. Park incorporates a holistic and naturopathic approach to her patients’ healing process, by helping create an optimal environment for healing to take place, both body and mind. As an adjunct to your healing process, she may recommend nutrition tools, e.g. anit-inflammatory diet, dietary supplements and herbs.
