Body Worx Physical Therapy

Sarah is a Doctor of Physical Therapy with five years of experience treating complex orthopedic, neurological, and systemic conditions, including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), POTS, and other forms of dysautonomia. She earned her Bachelor of Science from Texas A&M University and her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Hardin-Simmons University. Sarah is trained in dry needling and has completed extensive continuing education through the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI), where she is currently preparing to pursue professional certification through the institute. Her approach is rooted in a systemic understanding of how the body functions—physically and neurologically. Sarah incorporates principles of PRI to address positional imbalances that impact breathing, movement, and nervous system regulation. She has a growing clinical interest in the role of visual input, dental occlusion, and footwear in postural control and autonomic balance, especially in hypermobile or dysautonomic populations. Having personally navigated her own journey with dysautonomia and hypermobility, Sarah brings compassion and perspective to her clinical care. She believes in working with her patients to help them feel more stable, supported, and empowered from the inside out. Outside the clinic, Sarah is an adjunct professor at the Hardin-Simmons DPT Program and enjoys spending time with friends, learning to play guitar, fly fishing, traveling, and staying active—especially with anything outdoors. She has a background in triathlon and completed a Half Ironman, and she continues to explore new hobbies that blend creativity, movement, and curiosity.
