Some cases of chronic pain can be traced to a specific injury or trauma, that has long since passed or healed - for example; a physical injury, a serious infection or a surgical incision. Other cases have no apparent cause - no prior injury and an absence of underlying tissue damage. Frequently, that pain is rooted in a traumatic, emotional experience or event.

The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) states that approximately one-third of the population experiences neck pain every year. The neck is an integral part of your everyday movements, and neck pain can create undesirable challenges on daily tasks you can usually complete with ease. If left untreated, neck pain can lead to some serious conditions, and surgical correction may even be needed.
Physical therapy isn't normally someone's first thought when they have a headache - most of the time, the common reaction is to take some form of pain-relieving medication. This may help to relieve pain in the short-term, but if you are constantly suffering from headaches or migraines, pain relief drugs will not provide you with the same long-term effects that physical therapy will.

Before I met Cindy I was very weak, fatigued and unable to walk, stand or sit for any length of time. I was up countless nights unable to sleep because of intense pain and muscle spasms. After seeing numerous specialists, undergoing many x-ray and mri's, blood tests,, neurological tests, traditional physical therapy, and heavy dosing of medications, I sought alternative treatment. No one was able to pinpoint my specific problem. Each specialist had a different diagnosis.
Today, I am off all medications, muscle spasms are less, I am more mobile and in less pain. Cindy is a wonderful therapist.

My first experience with Power In Motion was in 2011, when I took my son to see Cindy. He had been in a car accident, and 6 months later he was still having trouble focusing in school and retaining what he was reading. A friend of mine suggested I try Power In Motion, and that was the beginning of his path to full healing. Cindy's treatment was exactly what he needed. She listened and tailored her approach to his unique needs. She also connected us to a developmental optometrist she works closely with, and the two of them worked as a team to help my son. I cannot overstate the impact of this team

At the age of 45 I experienced a horrible fall off a three story building, while trying to break my fall I extending my arm prior to impact, this broke my arm in five places, (see attached pic in photo section). I have always been very careful in choosing my doctors/surgeons and physical therapists so it took me 2 weeks before I found a surgeon with the confidence and experience to put me back together, during this 2 week time I also sought out a physical therapists that also offered both the confidence and experience I was looking for (Power In Motion). Other surgeons and therapists told me to

Power In Motion offers the perfect blend of Western and Eastern medicine. It is both holistic and scientific. You can count on professional care and service from its staff during every step of your visit.
Cindy Powers is awesome! She is able to find connections between one's current pain and past experiences/incidences or present lifestyle that you always knew but never realized, and then address the real source of the pain issue to make a lasting change. I have never left her office without feeling an immediate improvement in pain, posture and mobility.
She is also extremely connected to other

I highly recommend Power in Motion and Cindy Powers. I have been seeing her for 10 years. She is a very skilled and medically intuitive physical therapist, using gentle, yet powerful techniques. Cindy has literally helped me return to work and return to life after numerous injuries, falls, and surgeries. I now enjoy a wonderful, active life and am able to get on the floor and play with my 3 grandsons, enjoy travel, and realize my dream career as an energy healer. Thank you Cindy for all you have done for me and my family.

My young son suffered a brain injury when he fell 10 feet through a hole. His recovery was slow, and six months later we kept noticing that he just wasn't the same little boy since the accident. Physically he was all healed or so it seemed. We met with every specialist including pediatric neurologists who kept telling us that they couldn't seem to pinpoint what was wrong and that everything seemed to be OK. We knew he wasn't. We met with Cindy Powers who evaluated our son and immediately knew something was wrong. She worked with him over the course of three months and slowly but surely our son
