 (San Luis Obispo, CA) Precision Physical Therapy and Wellness is excited to announce that we now have five physical therapists who are PWR! Moves certified.
Parkinson’s disease is a neurological disorder that affects the central nervous system, which has an overwhelming impact on everyday physical movement. Treatment for Parkinson’s disease requires special training. Physical therapists must be Parkinson’s Wellness Recovery Moves (also known as PWR! Moves) certified, which means they know how to treat patients with the symptoms of Parkinson’s, such as slow movement, stiffness, and loss of balance. PWR! Moves certified physical therapists help patients during the rehabilitation process by maintaining or improving the movements that patients lose as a result of this disease. This treatment is imperative for patients so they are not weighed down in their everyday life by the physical inabilities of Parkinson’s disease. PWR! Moves also make sure patients do not become vulnerable to life-threatening conditions, which are enabled when a body suffers the physical effects of Parkinson’s. Precision Physical Therapy is proud to be one of the only clinics on the central coast that is able to treat Parkinson’s patients. There are five physical therapists at Precision who are PWR! Moves certified: Dr. Kristen Carless, Dr. Melissa TenKate, Dr. Heather Hamaguchi, Dr. Brianna Darneal, and Dr. Emily Mulhern. About Precision Physical Therapy and Wellness Precision Physical Therapy and Wellness is a locally owned and operated physical therapy clinic. Precision prides itself on offering a “48 Hour Appointment Guarantee” from a patient’s initial call (48 Hour Appointment Guarantee does not apply to Vestibular Therapy). All physical therapists are certified to treat a variety of diagnoses and pride themselves on providing specialized care timely and effectively. The mission of Precision is to produce healthy, happy, and engaged patients through proven therapeutic services and evidence-based practice. Precision had two convenient locations: in San Luis Obispo, located at 211 Tank Farm Rd., Suite A (across from Farm Supply), and in Avila Beach at the Avila Bay Athletic Club, located at 6699 Bay Laurel Place.

Precision Physical Therapy and Wellness Welcomes Physical Therapist, Dr. Heather Hamaguchi10/4/2021  Dr. Heather Hamaguchi, PT, DPT Doctor of Physical Therapy (San Luis Obispo, CA) Precision Physical Therapy and Wellness, a premier physical therapy clinic on the Central Coast, is excited to announce the addition of Dr. Heather Hamaguchi to their team.
Hamaguchi is a well-rounded physical therapist, who has completed her PWR!Moves certification, as well as her BFR and Vestibular and concussion certifications. These certifications extend well beyond the education needed to become a Physical Therapist. With this training she is now able to treat patients with Parkinson’s disease, in addition to helping those who need blood flow restriction training and vestibular rehabilitation. Hamaguchi completed her undergraduate education in 2016 at Pacific University, where she earned a bachelors of science degree in Health, Exercise, and Sports Sciences, in addition to a minor in biology. Her graduate education continued until 2019 at Azusa Pacific, where she pursued a doctorate of Physical Therapy degree. The reason Hamaguchi became a Physical Therapist was because she loves being able to help people recover in order for them to get back to doing their normal activities. She also enjoys that an opportunity for physical therapy extends to being able to meet and connect with people.
