History
Trudy's practice has served those in Boulder, Larimer and Weld counties since 2003. Her business accepts payment by Medicare and some private health insurances with written prescription for physical therapy from the client's physician. She accepts out-of-pocket payment on a sliding scale. She is also a provider for Rocky Mountain Human Services, an organization that pays for social and medical services for those with brain injuries. Trudy began her private practice after completing her certification in craniosacral therapy in 2001. She has had experience as a physical therapist in a variety of clinical and public school settings prior to beginning her practice. Her most recent was at the Mapleton Rehabilitation Center in Boulder, CO where she found that craniosacral therapy was having a dramatic affect on those who were not responding to conventional treatment. It is able to touch and positively affect the central nervous system of the client in a very profound, but gentle, way.
