Lori Peacock MSPT, NSCA CPT, HTAP
4659 Woodland Ave.
Drexel Hill, PA 19026
610.302.1201
Serving southeastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and southern New Jersey areas
Lori L. Peacock MSPT, NSCA CPT, HTAP, is a licensed physical therapist, certified personal trainer, and Healing Touch for Animals practitioner. Lori treats both the human and animal populations. Manual therapies are the mediums she uses most to help clients. Manual therapies include Active Release Techniques, Myofascial Release, Craniosacral therapy, acupressure techniques, and Healing Touch for Animals. Essential Oils, Bach Flower Essences, laser, and alpha sonics, are adjuncts to treatments. Lori's background with animals extends for more than twenty-five years: equine training, riding instruction, dog training for hunting and hunting trials. Through these experiences, Lori discovered that causes for many problems with animals are a result of system imbalances: energy and soft tissue are two primary sources. The imbalances can manifest as altered movement patterns, pain, or behavioral changes. Reestablishing internal balance, (homeostasis), using Healing Touch for Animals and other manual techniques, helps to facilitate optimal conditions within the animal for optimal healing to take place.

Presently, she owns a rescued aged mare whose enduring spirit is a constant inspiration.
