Professional Bio
Lizanne Pastore PT, MA, COMT received her B.S. in Physical Therapy from the University of Vermont in 1987. She has worked primarily in the Bay Area running a successful private practice since 1999. As an orthopedic manual therapist, Lizanne sees people with myriad musculo-skeletal-neural issues, and since 2005 she has specialized in pelvic health, treating all genders using a broad integrative approach. Additionally, Lizanne holds an M.A. in Somatic Counseling Psychology. The somatic approach encourages patients to explore a level of body awareness that is often missing in the Western medical model, and it grounds her philosophy of treating people as dynamic, multi-system beings, all with unique concerns and enormous potential to heal. http://www.lizannepastore.com/

I have 38 years experience in the field, 20 of which have been pelvic health. I am experienced with very complex cases. For students with limited income I am happy to mentor for free, otherwise, my fees are 100/hour, but would work on a sliding scale as needed.
