Tracy was hired at Excel Physical Therapy and Fitness as the Clinic Manager for the Pottstown clinic in October, 2006. Tracy has been specializing in the field of orthopedic physical therapy since her graduation from Hahnemann University (now Drexel) in 1991 at which time she earned her Master’s degree in Physical Therapy. Prior to that, Tracy attended Penn State University where she earned a degree in Health Education and Exercise Science, and then became a Certified Athletic Trainer. As of May 2005, Tracy earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Drexel University.

Since becoming a physical therapist, Tracy has worked for HealthSouth corporation outpatient clinics in both Louisville, Kentucky as well as Pottstown, PA. After five years with HealthSouth, Tracy worked eight years in Allentown, PA for Orthopedic Associates of Allentown, a respected group of orthopedic/sports medicine surgeons in the Lehigh Valley. She recently left a small outpatient clinic in Paoli where she treated a largely orthopedic population, but also patients with lymphedema and cancer-related fatigue.

Specialty treatment areas include management of foot and ankle dysfunction, especially through the use of orthotic shoe inserts, and also treatment of spinal instabilities and other dysfunction through core stabilization programs as well as manual therapy. Athletic injury management also remains as one of Tracy’s interests and specialties.

Tracy has many interests and activities which keep her busy outside of the clinic. She enjoys outdoor activities such as biking, hiking, travel and gardening as well as the slow progression of home projects for her circa 1796 farmhouse. More relaxing interests include reading and acrylic painting.
