Kristen Branham, MPT

The best part of Folsom Physical Therapy is that you get to work with the same therapist at each of your visits.  I first started working with Kristen doing Pelvic Floor Therapy.  With such a specialized treatment program I felt it was important to have that consistency.  To be able to become comfortable with my therapist and for them to become familiar with my body.  Kristen is gentle and kind, and since we had the time to build that relationship, I could come in and tell her what was hurting and she knew exactly where to go to start working to relax my tense muscles.  If I were seeing someone different each time, and had to explain my condition each time, I do not think my therapy would have progressed as well as it did. I’ve been working with Kristen for a while now, so I think she’s worked on just about every part of my body.  I come in now and tell her what’s hurting and she uses her magic hands to make it better.  Besides my Pelvic Floor and knees, we’ve done work on my hips, back, IT band, neck, and everywhere in between. I haven’t come in with a pain yet that she hasn’t helped me out with. If you are looking for the total package, Kristen is your woman.

Entering the reception area for the first time was a clue to the treatment and service I would receive at FPT. The greeting was warm and accommodating, and after the first visit, those at the front desk knew who I was and greeted me warmly. And then I was introduced to Kristen, my therapist, who first got to know a little about me and my injury, and then went to work on exercises to help increase my range of motion and strengthen the repaired tissues following surgery. With each visit, Kristen’s first concern was to see how I was doing and then to begin working on the area where I needed therapy. I am grateful to say that after only three months, my shoulder is almost completely healed and back to normal. I want to thank Kristen and the entire office staff for their efficiency and care during this time of healing.
