Nothing about this should feel like paperwork. Here's what the first six weeks look like — from the first phone call to being steadier than you were last month.
A relaxed, twenty-minute phone call. You tell Erin what brought you here — a recent fall, a doctor's suggestion, a specific goal, or just a feeling that it's time.
Erin listens. She asks about your history, any recent physical therapy, and anything your doctor has flagged. If it isn't a fit, she'll say so and point you elsewhere.
Your first full visit is 75 minutes. Erin looks at the space where you live — lighting, rugs, stairs, bathroom — and takes a few functional measures so we have a quiet baseline to come back to.
By the end of the visit you'll have a written plan: what we'll work on, what you'll do between visits, and how we'll measure progress.
One hour at a time. Most clients meet with Erin once or twice a week, at the same time, in the same room. You wear what's comfortable. We work with what's there.
Between visits you'll have two or three small things to practice — never more than ten minutes, never something you dread.
Every four to six weeks we quietly re-run the same baseline screens from visit one. You'll see — on paper — where you've moved. Goals are adjusted. The plan grows.
For clients who want, Erin will send a simple one-page update to your doctor or physical therapist so everyone is in sync.
Seventy-five minutes, on purpose. Here's the rhythm — so nothing is a surprise.
No paperwork theatre — just a warm check-in about your history, any recent setbacks, and what you want the next month to feel like.
Erin looks at the rooms you use most — lighting, rugs, thresholds, stairs, the bathroom. Small wins noted; nothing judged.
A few quiet screens — timed-up-and-go, sit-to-stand, single-leg stance — so we have honest numbers to compare back to.
If you're up for it, we do 20 minutes of whatever your body is asking for — usually breath, gentle mobility, and a single balance piece.
Before Erin leaves, you have a one-page plan — what we'll work on, what you'll do between visits, and when we meet again.
A short email that evening — what we noticed, what felt good, and a single encouragement to carry into the week.
