While completing her doctoral degree, Adrienne assisted with research that compared manual

techniques and their effect on the supine straight leg raise in young adults. Prior to obtaining

her doctorate, Adrienne also participated in research that demonstrated the effectiveness of

significant weight loss and the ability to delay or eliminate the need for a total knee

replacement.

Adrienne believes she is lucky enough to have found three professional passions so far in life.

Prior to obtaining her doctorate in physically therapy she worked as a professional dancer in

NYC and owner of MPowered helping individuals live healthier lifestyles through personal

training, nutritional consultations, and group fitness. Adrienne has had the opportunity to work

with individuals of all ages ranging from infants to those in their 90s. She has also had the

privilege of working with individuals from various backgrounds such as dancers, professional

athletes from the Detroit Lions and Detroit Pistons, and those with neurological disorders such

as Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s Disease. Throughout her doctorate program she

completed multiple clinical rotations in both inpatient and outpatient settings allowing her to

treat patients of all ages and diagnoses. Adrienne has a passion for determining the source of

each patient’s pathology and treating them specifically and holistically in order to help them

move better and feel better. Adrienne has always had a love for learning and will continue her

education through Oakland University’s Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy (OMPT) advanced

graduate certificate.
