Heather Cullen, a physical therapist for 31 years, earned her undergraduate degree in Psychology/Biology from Hamline University in St. Paul, MN. She earned her Master’s in Physical Therapy from The College of St. Catherine in Minneapolis, MN. After graduating, she traveled to work in several states, before being drawn to the amazing outdoor lifestyle that Washington State has to offer. She has owned and operated Harmony Physical Therapy since 2007. Heather has experience with all age-groups (0-100+). Over the years she has been employed at outpatient clinics, inpatient rehabilitation, acute care hospital, home health, pediatric rehabilitation, school districts and neurodevelopmental programs.
Heather's search to find therapy techniques that successfully and holistically treat the body lead her to John F. Barnes Myofascial Release in 2009. She has since experienced over 350 hours in myofascial release training. This approach to healing has changed the way Heather practices physical therapy by focusing on finding and treating the cause of her client's pain, not just the symptoms. The result is a more permanent healing.
Heather has always enjoyed physical movement lead but her curiosity about the potential a human body has. She was a competitive gymnast through college, and since has enjoyed mountain biking, skiing, hiking, kayaking, and playing outdoors.
