Dr. Natalie Farah, PT, DPT
Hi there! My name is Natalie Farah and I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy. While I have spent the better part of my 9 years of practice working with professional dancers and athletes, my passion lies in treating anyone and everyone with a musculoskeletal injury or condition. With my concierge services, I provide personalized care to help you recover and thrive. Whether you're an athlete, a performer, or any other human seeking improved function, I am here to support you on your journey to optimal health and performance.
Outside of my professional practice, I lead an active lifestyle fueled by my love for adventure. By participating in an array of activities including rock climbing, running, hiking, backpacking, biking, skiing, dancing, and playing various musical instruments, I am able to establish a deep connection and understanding with my patients.
