Back To Balance Reno - Corrective Exercise Therapist- Carrie Mullen B.A, MBF
My goal is to provide clients with a tool to help them live happy, healthy, functional lives. The technique I utilize in my Back to Balance practice is called Muscle Balance and Function Development (MBF). The approach allows me to analyze my clients' total body structural alignment - their posture, identify compensations away from the anatomical norm and then design a properly sequenced Corrective Exercise Program. Next, I guide my clients through their personalized exercises and provide a written guide with diagrams of exercise positions for reference. Clients continue to perform these exercises on their own until it is time to reassess and update their exercise program. The time between evaluations varies depending on the client but most commonly is two weeks. In addition to in person appointments, I have been able to work successfully with both new and longer-term clients on Zoom.

Today, people living with movement disorders like Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor
have a number of different treatments to consider – including physical therapy, medication,
and surgical options like DBS therapy. While there’s no cure for these conditions, finding the
right treatment can still help you get better control of your symptoms, move more freely, and
get back to the daily activities you love – and doing them with the people you care about.
Here are a few important treatment options you and your doctor may consider.
