Welcome!
Welcome!
My name is Christina Walsh. I have been a practicing Physical Therapist since 2007. My passion is the work I specialize in now - a unique and different style of gentle hands-on treatment that aligns and decompresses the body’s tissues to decrease pain. I found this specialty while seeking treatment for my own whiplash injury that I sustained after I was already a licensed PT, and it was a dramatic part of my recovery. After experiencing the results firsthand, I was inspired to attend the school of Integrative Manual Therapy in Connecticut, where I completed advanced coursework. Following that, I did a year-long mentorship to continue my studies. Since then I have also taken courses in Craniosacral Therapy through the Upledger Institute.
I treat aches, pains, and discomfort of all body parts, from head to toe, but I have a specific interest in treating active women and moms with back, hip, and pelvic issues.
I practice in a one-on-one setting only, leading to better, faster results.
Christina was interviewed by Maria Muro for New Orleans Living on January 25, 2017. Hear her describe her specialized treatments in her own words.
"Ladies,
If you've had any issues since having kids with your hips or back being out of whack and causing discomfort or pain, I can't recommend Christina enough. I tried massage and a variety of other things, and only her therapy gave me lasting relief."
- Lanay S.
"My back is feeling 100% better!"
- Chance M.
"The pain between my shoulder blades is gone, thank you!"
- Terry L.
"I feel amazing!! I have never gone this long without pain. Thank you sooooo much!"
- Amber S.
"I am so amazed, my shoulder has not hurt since you treated me just once!"
- Rachel T.
"I have been continuously amazed at each of my one-on-one sessions with Christina. For me, just 1 hour every 4-6 weeks has tremendously helped my body alignment and mobility. Her hands-on treatment is gentler & more therapeutic than chiropractic therapy, and highly effective at the same time.
I would highly recommend Christina for anyone struggling with physical discomfort or pain. Even just a few sessions can make a huge difference in your understanding of the mind/body connection and your quality of life."
- Rachel T.
"You have done wonders for my recovery rate. I’m doing better than I have in the last 6 months! Thank you so much! I adore our sessions!"
- Kitty C.
"My hip is feeling back to normal! No pain."
- Lauren T.
"My tailbone pain is gone and I am sitting comfortably again. I am amazed and looking forward to my next appointment."
- Robyn T.
