What We Treat
Evaluations at our practice are also longer than one hour due to our comprehensive approach, so please allow at least 75 minutes for your first visit. Our intake forms are also lengthy, because we don’t just look at the diagnosis and treat it, we look for root cause so we can prevent pain and disease for the future.

Additionally, Dr. Garner specializes in providing high level rehabilitative lumbopelvic ultrasound imaging and dry needling for pelvic and vocal health.

Insurance
- Insurance companies typically cover physical therapy (PT). Check with your insurance company to determine your PT benefits. Paperwork is provided for insurance reimbursement on request. Payment is collected at time of service.
- We are out-of-network providers and do not accept insurance. We work for and with you, not the insurance company.

- Garner has successfully provided services to people of all socioeconomic levels since 2005. She made the decision to go out of network because insurance companies repeatedly denied coverage for the bulk of her patients, who were being discriminated against because of “pre-existing” chronic pain conditions.
- Garner is passionate about improving healthcare and coverage of services. She is actively involved in healthcare justice and both state legislative and federal congressional policy creation.
- Garner and her practice is well known for helping people who are still dealing with pain and impairment after they have exhausted other forms of treatment and care.
Working with us means…
1
More Effective Healing with Integrative Physical Therapy
The Integrative Care Model has been proven more effective than standard physical therapy alone. This includes using a FILM approach – Functional, Integrative/Yogic, & Lifestyle Medicine), lumbopelvic ultrasound imaging, and the latest scientifically supported therapies to prescribe pelvic and orthopaedic physical therapy. I help men, women, and trans individuals overcome tough to treat issues from the neck and oral cavity to the pelvic floor. Your care may involve labs via our interdisciplinary Functional & Lifestyle Medicine team, in order to determine root cause of your problem, instead of just treating the symptoms.

Better Time Management & Entrepreneurship
I’ve been a “mompreneur” and successful business owner of 2 small businesses for over 2 decades.
As a working mom (of 3 boys), I’ve learned what it takes to manage my time and stay mindful while wearing multiple hats as a CEO.
Work/life balance is an enigmatic concept and for women, and can seem impossible when you are a mother.
Yet, I’ve discovered strategies that have enabled me to thrive in the healthcare and wellness industry as a female and as a mother, and I’m ready to teach you how to do the same.
