Led by Dr. Nicole Merrifield, PT, DPT
Iβm a Doctor of Physical Therapy and founder of Elevate Physical Therapy Consulting.
Over the past 14 years, Iβve worked with a wide range of orthopedic conditions, including low back pain, neck and shoulder pain, joint replacements, osteoarthritis, post-surgical recovery, posture-related concerns, overuse injuries, and movement limitations.
I created Elevate Workplace Wellness Workshops to bring practical physical therapy education outside the clinic and into real-life settings where people spend most of their day β at work.
My goal is to help employees better understand their bodies, reduce unnecessary strain, and build simple movement habits that support long-term wellness.
