Wellness on Seaboard was founded with a clear vision: to create a place where people feel supported, understood, and empowered in their wellness journey.
After graduating from Wheeling Jesuit University in West Virginia with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy, Lori moved to North Carolina in 2005 and met her husband, who was raised in Cameron, NC. They have two girls who attend local middle and elementary schools. She is active in the Town of Vass, where she serves on the Board of the Friends of the Vass Library, is involved with the Vass Business Association, and participates in an all-girls Boy Scouts of America troop.
As a collegiate athlete who played basketball, Lori found a path to physical therapy and has practiced for 21 years in outpatient orthopedics. She brings clinical expertise, compassionate care, and a personalized approach to helping clients reduce pain, improve mobility, and move through life with greater ease and confidence.
Her work is rooted in the belief that wellness is not one-size-fits-all. Every person brings a different story, different goals, and different needs, which is why Lori’s approach is centered on listening first, then building a path forward that feels realistic, supportive, and sustainable.
Her certifications include Mastery Certification in Manual Therapy through Hands On Seminars, Titleist Performance Institute Certification, Advanced Dry Needling Certification through Myopain Seminars, Kinesiotaping and RockTape Certification, Champion Performance Specialist, and Sportsmetrics Certification.
