Karen graduated from the University of North Dakota in 1990 with a BS degree in Science and a minor in Athletic Training. In 1994, she earned her Master’s Degree in Physical Therapy from the College of St. Catherine’s. Karen has practiced in outpatient orthopedic clinics since 1996. She has developed a reputation for the treatment of complex, chronic patients using the postural restoration approach leading to referrals from around the region and surrounding states. Karen’s knowledge of and skill in applying Postural Restoration techniques has resulted in a number of guest lectures ranging from the Twin Cities Marathon Sports Medicine Conference to lectures at the College of St. Catherine’s where Karen is a Clinical Faculty Member for the Physical Therapy Program.

History of Passion

The Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) is built around 30 years of clinical practice associated with recurring successes of specific patient treatment programs. We established reproducible, outcome-based programs based on consistent evidence-based correlations, discovered with patient biomechanical, respiratory, and neurological functional patterns and limitations. My passion for the integrated systems of the body has resulted in an examination and intervention process of the asymmetrical human body called Postural Restoration.
