Pain Prevention Specialist Tracey Vincel
Tracey has over 17 years of clinical experience in outpatient private practices in New York City and has extensive experience treating and preventing chronic pain. She has a deep interest in the relationship between altered posturo-movement and pain and related disorders. Her practice emphasizes the mind/ body connection and how thoughts and beliefs can influence body tension affecting movement. She believes in an integrated approach to treating pain considering body, mind and spirit and has dedicated her 17 years of clinical practice experience as a physiotherapist to discovering the diagnostic tools that form the basis for mind, breath and movement therapy interventions. She is passionate about sharing this knowledge and together with her business partner Patricia Ladis have co founded KIMA Center for Physiotherapy and Wellness. KIMA is not just a physical therapy and wellness practice but an education center and leader in root cause medicine.
