Find a Therapist

Mary Ellen graduated from Springfield College in 1992 with a master’s of science degree in physical therapy and received her doctorate from Boston University in 2005. She is a nationally certified lymphedema therapist and has other training in kinesiotaping, myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, and visceral manipulation. She also works with men’s and women’s health for pelvic issues, and has published an infertility case-series research study in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association and a lymphatic case report in Rehabilitation Oncology. She has also developed a new research study for infertility which is approved through Nova Southeastern University and is currently underway.
​Mary Ellen is the president and co-founder of Pelvic Health Research Initiative, Inc., a non-profit developed for the purpose of supporting clinical pelvic research. She has developed and teaches continuing education courses for other physical therapists to help support Pelvic Health Research Initiative.

I have been encouraging wellness through supportive empowering massage treatment since 1995, with an emphasis on Lymphatic Drainage since 2012. Each treatment is guided by your goals and the interaction between the techniques and your body’s response. Your tissues are encouraged to release tension and pain patterns with a combination of movement, firm "hurts but feels so good" pressure, and gentle energetic touch.
