Philosophy

Mitzi believes the feet, like the foundation of a house, are the foundation of human movement. If they are not functioning you’ll see dysfunction up the chain. Mitzi will likely look at your feet and shoes no matter what she treat you for, that’s just a fact. She believes in empowering her patients to accomplish great things. She looks at herself as a partner in your care—not as an authoritarian figure. She loves to educate and act as a resource in helping patients along their path.
