Lauren is a Doctor of Physical Therapy based in San Diego. With a background in dance, gymnastics, and track and field, she developed a keen interest in the mechanics of the body and the art of movement. Lauren began her career in 2012, specializing in orthopedic and sports-related issues such as knee pain while running, neck pain from computer use, and back pain during dancing.

Shortly after starting her career, Lauren pursued post-graduate training to focus on women’s health, including pelvic floor issues, pregnancy, and postpartum care. She observed the prevalence of pelvic floor issues in both male and female patients and the discomfort that often accompanies pregnancy. Recognizing the significant changes and challenges that the body undergoes during pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum, Lauren was motivated to provide better support and guidance to her patients. She founded Thrive Physical Therapy with the goal of offering a different approach to treatment, one that prioritizes enhancing function rather than solely treating symptoms.

Lauren firmly believes in the importance of intentional and purposeful movement throughout life. She believes that efficient movement can address dysfunction, promote strength, and bring fluidity to our lives. Lauren is dedicated to helping her patients not only exist but thrive within their bodies. In her free time, she continues to pursue her passion for dance by taking classes at a local studio. She also enjoys cooking, spending time with her husband, dog, and friends in San Diego, and making trips to Long Beach to be with her family.
