About

📞 BOOK A FREE PHONE CONSULTATION

Dr. Nicki Leach (she/her) is an energetic and enthusiastic Pennsylvania native. She grew up racing around the rolling hills of the Appalachian mountains barefoot exploring the farmland and forests around her home. She has an insatiable curiosity that has led her to take many teaching roles in her life and ultimately allowed her to find her home with Movement-X. The ability to see people in the environments in which they move, live, and play led her to partner with the Movement-X community. 

She has practiced PT in multiple countries allowing first hand experience into how the way we use our bodies in our daily life requires a specialized and individualized approach to optimize our own unique and personal idea of wellness. 

Nicki enjoys working with a wide variety of individuals including:

  • Orthopedics - foot and ankle pain and dysfunction, plantar fasciitis, impingement, bursitis, tendinopathies, adhesive capsulitis/ frozen shoulder, rotator cuff tears, labral tears, meniscus tears, ACL rehabilitation, recurrent ankle sprains, heel pain, metatarsalgia, morton's neuroma, shoulder dislocations, hypermobility, chronic upper trap tightness, postural dysfunction, shoulder pain, knee pain, knee sprain, lumbar sprain, arthritis, pain without injury, back pain, thoracic pain, SI joint pain, sciatica,  piriformis syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome, fractures, post-operative/ post-surgical, jaw pain, hip pain, muscle spasms, joint replacement prehab and rehab, neck pain, headaches, herniated discs, spinal degeneration, rib pain, nerve entrapment with numbness and tingling, rheumatoid arthritis, and any general injury or impairment to body regions. 
  • Recreational and Competitive Runners - road running, trail running, ultra-running, triathalons, iron men competitions, etc. 
  • Recreational or Competitive Athletes - Overhead athletes, soccer, basketball, pickleball, volleyball, track and field, snowboarding, skiing, weight lifting, and cross-fit among others
  • Persistent pain - remember that old injury when you were 15, or that interesting pain that multiple PTs have thrown their hat in the ring to treat without success? Your entire right side just doesn't work the same as the left? Nicki is excellent at connecting the entire body in a holistic treatment plan to help you overall move more freely. 
  • Barefoot/ Minimalist foot wear transitions - our poor feet are used to shoes with narrow toe boxes, heel lift, and lots of cushion leading people with a desire for a more minimal footwear experience to end up with new and unsettling injuries. Nicki can help you prevent that and transition safely into an appropriate shoe for your foot and body. 
  • Gender affirming care and Gender-spectrum sensitive care
  • Body positive care

Fun Facts

  • After having several untreated injuries in her early sporting career in high school into D1 collegiate athletics, she was able to get a deep grasp at the emotional, physical, and mental toll pain and impairments can create in our lives. She has been able to utilize that journey to meet patients in the midst of pain and struggle with a focused intention of reclaiming movement, confidence, and ease in daily life.
  • Nicki has a deep love of reading, writing, and the creative arts (and this often influences her perspectives and approach to patient care).
  • She is a lover of animals and enjoys training her puppy with the hopes of competing in future trials.
  • She is always looking for new ways to move and learn to help keep her body and brain sharp. One of her major life goals is to be able to do a controlled handstand. 
  • One of Nicki's deepest passions is traveling to experience new cultures, geography, people, and FOOD! She has been to 36 states and has traveled to 3 continents. 


Reviews

When I first went to Nicki, my back was so stiff and in pain that walking was difficult. Nicki diagnosed the issue as my hip (primarily right hip) as being locked up. Over the course of 5 separate visits in 2 months, I am pleased to say that not only am I pain free, I can move better than I have in years. Nicki's approach is fun, simple, and intuitive. She gave me homework that I could easily remember and was relatively easy to do. I would recommend Nicki to anyone who is in need of a physical therapist.
