Parmis’ unwavering passion revolves around implementing unique approaches to foster health and fitness, mitigate injuries, and alleviate pain for individuals across all age spectrums and injury types.

Through her athletic background, combined with her clinical skills, she is able to provide efficient treatment techniques to allow athletes to return to sports quickly. Parmis’ warm and compassionate personality allows her to diagnose injuries while seeking to understand the root causes of her clients’ injuries, in order to implement preventative approaches for the future, while also resolving her clients’ current issues.

While Parmis is passionate about treating all body parts and injuries, she holds a particular interest in the neck, lower back, hip, knee, and shoulder. She utilizes her preferred technique of patient-centered exercises, which enhances her ability to provide personalized care. Outside of the clinic, you can find Parmis running along the seawall, going for long hikes, and exploring restaurants all across the city to fulfill her inner foodie.
