About Dr. Shannon

In her Practice

I learned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of Maryland Eastern shore in 2013. I have over a decade of experience as a licensed Physical Therapist.

My treatments combine orthopedic physical therapy with a holistic approach rooted in Medical Therapeutic Yoga and Integrative Lifestyle Medicine. I’m a certified Dry Needling provider and a Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist. as well as a Pelvic Floor therapist. My special focus areas include chronic pain, hypermobility and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS/hEDS), pregnancy and postpartum recovery and pelvic floor rehabilitation.

I founded Mindful Movement PT because it was becoming more and more evident that our current healthcare model is a bit broken. Patients were often waiting weeks to months to gain access to a provider— which was long enough for their conditions to move from acute to chronic. My goal is to make On-Demand Care accessible for anyone looking to get away from traditional healthcare barriers. I strive to treat the root cause of dysfunction—not chase symptoms.

Integrative lifestyle medicine

I have a wonderful husband and two beautiful young girls, Breezy and Daisy. I love the outdoors and I find comfort in all things nature including hiking, camping, backpacking and kayaking.
