Meet Clare Owens, DPT, PT
Your Physical Therapist & Strengthening Coach
For over a decade, Iβve served older adults who donβt just want to age wellβthey want to stay strong, active, and confident. I call it quiet strength: the kind of strength that lets you enjoy the outdoors, feel steady indoors, and keep up with lifeβs moments. Whether itβs strolling the neighborhood, carrying groceries, or chasing grandkids.Β This strength means youβre never left behind, never afraid or falling or losing your independence, and never limited by preventable injuries.
Together, weβll build your lasting, quiet strength that frees your future to be whatever you want it to look like.

"I am so grateful for Clareβs expertise and knowledge, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of improving their strength and mobility."
"After my mother-in-law injured her hip, getting her mobility back to baseline was of the utmost importance. Having Clareβs physical therapy expertise was a key factor in helping her return to her baseline. Clareβs personal touch, along with her clear and concise explanations of both the βhowβ and the βwhyβ of each exercise, played an essential role in her recovery."

Frequently Asked Questions
Will physical therapy help me stay independent as I age?
Here at Staal PT, my focus is helping you stay strong, steady, and mobile while reducing pain and preventing injuries. This can include exercises for balance, flexibility, strength, posture, and everyday movements. Think getting up from a chair, or walking on uneven ground.
The good news is that you don't need fancy equipment, expensive programs, or even official "physical therapy" to maintain your movement and independence. Get started today with a free resource, or book a free consult for personalized suggestions.Β
Is this virtual physical therapy or in-person?
All our work together is online, meaning you can meet with me from the comfort of your home. Instead of traditional telehealth sessions where we exercise together in real time, I create a custom program for you to follow on your own. Your personalized plan will include exercises designed for your unique goals, living space, and available equipment.Β
Weβll also meet regularly for coaching calls to review your progress, adjust the plan, and keep you moving confidently.Β
How quickly will I see results?
Everyoneβs starting point is different, but many clients notice improvements in balance, strength, or confidence within a few weeks when theyβre consistent.
What types of conditions do you help with?
I specialize in strength, balance, mobility, and injury prevention for older adultsβwhether you want to stay active, recover after an injury, or improve confidence in daily movement.
How do I know if this is right for me?
If you want to improve strength, balance, or mobility from home with guidance from a licensed physical therapist, this program is for you. Book a free consultation so we can talk through your goals.
