About Ginger Morrissey

Hi!  I’m Ginger Morrissey.  I live and work in Charlotte, NC.  I have a passion for working with people that have had a similar experience to mine.  I have worked with people with joint pain as an outpatient physical therapist since 1997.  I am fellowship trained in manual orthopedics and am certified in Dry Needling. I was a manager at a large hospital based outpatient center where I left in order to open my own Private Practice as a Physical Therapist.  I have since opened a second business named Resilient Health and Wellness where I can help people at a much higher level to get to the “Root Cause” of their joint pain. Keep reading to learn why.
Picture
I was personally active with not only working with my hands but I also stood on hard concrete floors all day.  I also ran, worked out 6 days per week, played tennis, and played golf. I went hiking with my dog and enjoyed scuba diving, sky diving, and hang gliding.  I have young grandchildren that I loved playing with.

I began having joint pain in multiple joints for no apparent reason.  I became so fatigued that I was sleeping 13-15 hours per day and had to go on FMLA.  I had spots all over my legs that were diagnosed as autoimmune disease called Granuloma Annulare.  I was unable to workout, run, play tennis or do any of the other activities that I enjoyed doing. I struggled to play with my grandchildren.  I saved all of my energy for work.  

I saw doctor after doctor.  I took medication after medication.  I experienced many ugly side effects and nothing really helped.  I was told I had RA and it was recommended that I go on disability and take even more powerful medications.  

I wasn’t ready to stop working and didn’t want to give up my life as I knew it at such a young age.  I sought out more natural approaches and became much better, but I still wasn’t healed to the level I wanted.  I decided my next level of education would be to enroll in a Functional Medicine Course for Physical Therapists. 

I implemented the strategies I was learning to my own health.  I am currently pain free, rid of the chronic fatigue and my spots are fading.  I am amazed at what I have learned and I feel it is my duty to share my knowledge with others who suffer from similar symptoms.  Hence, Resilient Health and Wellness was born.  

I am excited and am looking forward to walking you through important lifestyle changes to help you improve your health.  I don’t work with everyone. I work with those who are committed and ready to make changes. If you commit, I am 100% committed to you.
