Dr. Lisa Yacovani, PT, DPT is bringing a fresh approach to physical therapy through her new mobile practice, Dynamo Physical Therapy PLLC.
Based out of Saratoga County, Yacovani offers individualized care to her patients through her traveling concierge physical therapy practice.
Yacovani said Dynamo Physical Therapy is based on the notion of being proactive about health through a comprehensive approach. Although she works with patients in all stages of life, she said her passion is reaching age groups that are able to take preventative measures that will impact their lives in the future.
“My target population of 45 to 65-year-olds, the ‘pre golden years,’ is a crucial time to invest in ourselves in order to set us up for participating in life to the fullest across our life span. In doing so we avoid missing out on life’s endless opportunities and can gain the confidence to always pursue new things. Within this target population, I also am passionate about working with golfers, individuals with hip or knee arthritis, and individuals who are pre- or post-hip or knee replacement,” she said.
For people with physical problems, Yacovani warned against trying to wait it out. She said early intervention is key.
“We can work together to try and target problems early on, bringing better results later on. (Waiting) makes us more susceptible to developing something much more difficult to manage,” said Dr. Yacovani.
Providing individualized care is a major reason that Yacovani decided to start her own mobile practice.
The concept of Dynamo began when COVID-19 hit, said Dr. Yacovani. She said it gave her time to put the idea into motion.
“The timing was somewhat of a silver lining. I have an amazing support system that really allowed me to be able to go out on my own and make this happen,” she said.
The name Dynamo is reflective of what it means to be a self starter or a doer, she said.
