Katrina Kneeskern, DPT, FAAOMPT, Cert DN, Cert SMT, Dip. Osteopractic

I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota as a dancer but devoted my life to serving, helping and healing other people. I completed my BS in Psychology and my Doctorate in Physical Therapy at St. Catherine University in 2008. I have a passion for travel and adventure and worked as a PT in MN, AZ, NV, CA and CO obtaining Fellowships and Residency skills while exploring the world.

My primary expertise is in orthopedic outpatient settings with skills including being a Fellow in Manual Therapy as well as having over 1 years’ experience in a Residency type training at an exclusive pelvic floor clinic in CO, treating both men and women.

My focus is on manual therapy and to gain necessary mobility before stabilizing with exercises.  I finalize a treatment plan into the strength phase with functional lifting and loading the tissue to allow the endurance of those muscles to sustain optimal wellness. My goals are to increase body awareness and incorporate preventative care to help maintain healing for patients.

I am committed to spreading the knowledge of wellness as well as delivering treatments and education for the overall health and well-being of my patients by using my Health Coach Certification as a resource.

I am a certified Peak Pilates and Kundalini Yoga instructor as well as performing personal training/coaching at Lifetime Fitness.  I try to utilize breath, meditation and functional nutrition/medicine to help heal the body naturally.

I continue to enjoy dancing in my free time as well as running, cycling, lifting heavy weights, hiking and yoga. I also love spending time outside at the lakes with my nieces, friends and family.
