She earned her BS in Health Science from St. Mary's College of CA (1999) and Master's degree from Samuel Merritt University (2003).

It is a highly effective method of improving and/or correcting inefficient habits that may have developed because of structure or compensatory habits.
Pilates is an whole body exercise modality created by Joseph Pilates in the 20th Century. Initially called "Contrology", based off of Joseph Pilates's mind-body philosophy, he believed that physical fitness can be restored with the complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit.

Paige Raffo is a talented healer. She is intuitive, knowledgeable, compassionate - all while being realistic and funny. I am exceedingly grateful for her treatment. She furthered my TMJ / hyper mobility diangoses, enabling me to understand what was going on and how I could help myself when I won't get to see her as much.

Michael Ball has given me extra ordinary care over the years. Since 2010 he has helped me successfully recover from a compound fracture of my leg, pain in my shoulder, lower back pain with sciatica, and most recently pain in my left knee. I admire his expertise, patience, dedication, and caring. My life would not be the same without his care.

You won't find another physical therapist who understands form and function to the degree that Paige does. She continually advances her knowledge as research and training progress in not only her field but in many related areas that have contributory roles and her patients benefit from her consistent expertise. She can look at the big picture of what is going on with her patients and address their specific needs using a variety of modalities that go far beyond what a "typical" PT would understand. Highly recommend!
