Mission Statement Health-Pro Physical Therapy, Inc. is a consumer service organization, with a philosophy of always striving to provide the best expertise that physical therapy has to offer. Our therapists are trained well beyond entry level in the profession and they continue to remain on the cutting edge by attending continuing education courses, reading current literature in the field, and staying involved in professional associations. Owner and President I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to you. My name is Sandra Schall, PT. I am the owner and President of Health-Pro Physical Therapy, Inc. I sincerely hope you will find it beneficial to utilize the services of this clinic. I earned my PT degree from the University of Vermont in Burlington in 1988. I moved to Livermore after I graduated from college. For over 22 years, I have been a practicing therapist in various settings throughout the Tri-Valley area and the Bay Area. My areas of expertise include orthopedic and post-surgical rehab, sports rehab, ergonomics, repetitive injuries, chronic pain, and hand therapy. I also have a strong background in neurological rehab, wound care and pediatrics. I acquired this clinic in July of 2004 from a therapist who was retiring. We are currently offering various treatment programs and protocols to allow this clinic to continue to be a major factor in the rehab community. Our staff employs a strong emphasis on various manual therapies such as myofascial release, trigger point therapy, muscle energy techniques, joint/spine mobilization and soft tissue mobilization, included with education in body mechanics/ergonomics training, postural re-education and individualized exercise, along with various treatment modalities as indicated. This individualized approach has been very effective to assist our patients with various movement dysfunctions to improve function and comfort in their day to day lives. We evaluate each patient as a whole, treating the source of the problem and not just the symptoms.
