Maryellen Tighe

I am a outpatient physical therapist who genuinely enjoys treating a bit of everything throughout their day. I have a particular interest in balance, TMJ and vestibular concerns, but if I don't see at least a few patients complaining of shoulder, neck or back pain my day is not complete. I enjoy facilitating people's return to the great outdoors, whether that is as an adaptive snowboarding coach, a trail maintenance crew member, or through policy work to promote improved pedestrian safety in my town. You are most likely to find me talking to you about the importance of water and sunblock for wherever we're going next.
