Physical Therapy Specialists
Dawn Sandalcini, PT, RCMT, BCB-PMD has been specializing in pelvic muscle dysfunction since 1992 and has pursued education opportunities with leaders in the field.

Bodywork Practitioners
The best way to be successful in changing your movement patterns is to get the hands-on intervention you need, when you need it. Choosing a bodyworker depends on an individual’s experience but here are a few we have paired with successfully through our clients.
Elizabeth Browning
Practices a unique blend of cranial sacral , yoga and massage therapy, including Ayurveda and visceral manipulations. She practices at Mexico and Jackson.
Mike Case, CMT
Has earned his nickname of “Magic Mike,” working with many of MOVE’s regular clients and successfully creating musculoskeletal changes with his hands to compliment the re-patterning and biomechanical changes the clients are pursuing in Pilates and movement classes.
Gigi Willett, DMIc, AATc, LMT
A practitioner and instructor in the Lowen Technique in addition to other manual therapy techniques. She addresses issues with soft and connective tissue, fascial restrictions, and does particularly great work calming the central and autonomic nervous systems. Gigi’s work is a great compliment to the movement re-patterning we pursue from the outside at MOVE because it’s like re-patterning “from the inside out.”
Gail Wetzler, PT, DPT, EDO, BI-D
Gail is the lead educator for the Bareille Institute and we are lucky to have her here in Denver. This specialty is why I list her under BODYWORK and not PT: This work addresses soft tissue, connective tissue, and fascial restrictions in a way that is, I feel, more holistic and full-body focused than traditional PT although she has that "lens" when she is evaluating and treating as well.
Psychotherapy
At MOVE, we recognize that it’s impossible to separate the physical from the psychological. Whether your mental health is maintained by a hike in the mountains or by a conversation with a professional, we want to support you. If you need help in this area, here are a couple of options we know and trust.
Melissa Barbash, MA, LAC, LPC
A licensed professional counselor in the Congress Park area and specializes in treating adults struggling with interpersonal skills, anger issues, addictions and aggressive tendencies.
