Chronic Pain Relief in Boulder
Mind Body Physical Therapy was founded on the principle that chronic pain and complex physical conditions require a holistic, patient-centered approach. With over 35 years of clinical experience, we specialize in treating chronic pain, post-traumatic injuries, and neurological conditions through a unique integration of traditional physical therapy and somatic experiencing techniques. Our practice is built on the understanding that pain often stems from both physical and psychological factors, and we prioritize addressing both aspects to achieve lasting relief. We serve patients in Boulder and surrounding areas, offering personalized treatment plans that combine manual therapy, movement retraining, and trauma-informed care.Our founder, Rachel Katz, has pioneered a method that bridges the gap between mind and body, helping patients recover from conditions like RSD/CRPS, migraines, and post-accident injuries. We are committed to community outreach, including trauma resolution programs, and maintain a focus on education through workshops and publications. Our practice has been recognized by medical professionals and patients alike for its innovative approach to pain management.
