- Trigger Point Dry Needling: She has over 8 years of experience with dry needling and often integrates electrical stimulation and functional techniques.
- Post-surgical: Sarah has expertise treating both common and complex surgeries. She has experience in home health seeing patients just one day after surgery, but also believes patient's need especially close attention at the end of their rehab in order to get back to their sport or activities safely and reduce re-injury rates.

- Pregnant and postpartum: Sarah has specialized training to help pregnant and postpartum women return to exercise safely, whether that's lifting your children into their carseat or running marathons again.
