PARIS, TN – Henry County Medical Center is proud to announce that Skye Prince, PT, Center for Wellness and Rehabilitation as Henry County’s first Certified Integrative Manual Physical Therapist (CIMT).

CIMT professionals are recognized as expert providers of an array of advanced neuromusculoskeletal therapies. These therapies include spinal manipulation, non-thrust mobilization approaches, and manual neuromuscular re-education techniques all supported by appropriate therapeutic exercise interventions and movement strategies designed to promote patient wellness and independence.

“I am excited to offer a more highly skilled hands-on approach to dysfunction,” said Prince. “Because this is an evidence-based, all-inclusive approach, I have a broadened understanding of different drivers of pain.”

The CIMT certification is intended to train therapists to assess dysfunction from a whole body perspective. This certification will allow Prince to “connect the dots” from where a patients driver of pain is located to where the symptoms are, using an eclectic manual therapy approach.

Prince has worked at the HCMC Center for Wellness and Rehabilitation since 2012 after graduating from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a Doctorate of physical therapy.  She lives in Paris with her husband Adam and stepdaughter Hailey, who is active in the HCHS Madrigals.  Prince graduated from HCHS in 2004 and graduated with a bachelor’s in cellular biology from the University of Tennessee at Martin in 2008.
