Hi! I’m Dr. Anahise Shoukas

It all started when…

My path of healing naturally without the use of medications started as a child when I got headaches and innately did yoga postures (not knowing I was doing yoga) to help alleviate them.

As a little kid growing up, I would play in my father’s biomedical and cardiac research lab, and later work for him doing surgeries for his research. I practiced karate, kung fu, chi gong, and yoga in my early adult years and explored the eastern side of medicine. And so the blending of pearls from both western and eastern medicine for healing the body formed.

My own martial arts injuries and a multitude of car accidents have taught me how I like to be treated as a patient and an incredible journey learning about the body, creating a deep understanding of what techniques are effective. As a patient, I understand the desire and determination it takes to return to the things one loves. As your therapist, I understand that injuries can change us in our ever impermanent life, and sometimes we need a little help from our friends.

I received the highest level of education with my Doctorate in Physical Therapy, trained in Kineticore Dry Needling, 200-hour yoga certification, FMS, and a multitude of continuing education courses for osteopathic mobilization, manipulation of joints, therapeutic yoga, neuromuscular re-education, mantra meditation, and more.

Prajna means wisdom or insight in Sanskrit. When we can slow down enough to come into our bodies and be present with the NOW, we can start to see which patterns serve us and which we can let go of, physically and mentally- leading us to our higher Self.
