About Me


My Story
Hi, I’m AJ—the Person Behind Balanced Living.
Over more than 15 years working in physical therapy, I’ve spent time with people in hospitals, clinics, and their own homes.
I’ve seen how a fall can affect much more than someone’s movement. Everyday tasks can become intimidating. Family members begin to worry. Someone who once felt independent may start holding back.
Those experiences are why I created Balanced Living. I wanted to help older adults take an active role in maintaining their strength, balance, and confidence.
My approach starts with getting to know you.
What do you enjoy? What feels harder than it used to? What would you like to feel more comfortable doing?
Your answers give our work direction. Together, we’ll focus on practical movement, manageable steps, and a routine that fits your life.
You can expect encouragement, honest guidance, and someone who celebrates the progress you make. And yes—we can have some fun while we’re working.
My goal is to help you keep participating in the life you enjoy, with support from someone who cares about you as a person.
My Mission
It's actually quite simple:
To help older adults and their families feel confident, safe, and free to enjoy life without fear of falling.
To build strength in seniors and provide peace of mind for the families who love them.
