About

My name is Jonathon May, PT, DPT, PCES, CRGA

I am a physical therapist with more than 9 years of experience working in the PT field. I earned a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology from Pacific Lutheran University and a Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Baylor University.

 

Early in my career I noticed postpartum women were being underserved and many of these women were unaware that the changes from pregnancy and delivery could be corrected. Having also seen what my own wife went through with her pregnancies, I decided to get a specialty in Postpartum and Pregnancy Corrective Exercises (PCES).

 

Later, as my children got older and became more involved in sports, specifically running, I saw a need to get a specialty in running to assist all athletes that run improve their mechanics and performance and prevent injuries. This led me to getting a Certified Running Gait Analysis specialty. Although I have these specialties I still consider myself a generalist PT because I will treat just about any patient that walks through my door. Whether it's aches and pains, joint replacements, post-op rehab, vertigo, or a number of other ailments, I will always do my best to assist you.
