Joe LaVacca, PT, DPT, OCS

Founder of Strength in Motion, Specialists in Chronic Pain Management

Throughout my time as a PT I always wanted more. More for myself, and more for my patients. Through my experiences, time with mentors, countless continuing education courses, teaching around the world, and my own personal battle with depression, I began to question what I could actually do as a Physical Therapist, and perhaps more importantly, what I could do better as a human being.

I began to develop a style of care that centered around education, empowerment, and communication.

"As a Physical Therapist who works with people with chronic pain and complex situations, Joe has been an amazing person to learn from and seek advice from when I get stumped or want to speak more clearly. He is able to quickly digest information and ask clarifying questions to get to the heart of the problem. He gives several ideas or examples of questions to ask or things to try that brings a fresh perspective to the problem I'm trying to help solve. I always come away from our conversations invigorated and with a different direction to try."

"Joe's courses have been huge in helping me grow as a clinician. He is well spoken and makes complex topics understandable. I would 1,000% recommend all of Joe's courses if you want to up your game as a clinician."

"Joe LaVacca is knowledgeable, intuitive, smart and kind. Studying with Joe has helped me to further develop my communication skills with my students and deepen my understanding of pain. I highly recommend his course, Listening to Pain! I’ve referred him to countless students, colleagues and family. A session with Joe always gives great results and a supportive mindset for working with pain."
