Keiko earned her Masters and Doctorate of Physical Therapy degrees from UCSF/SFSU’s Graduate Program in Physical Therapy. She then obtained her Board Certification in Orthopedic Physical Therapy through the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strengthening and Conditioning Association to enhance her practice working with orthopedic and sports physical therapy patients. Keiko was comprehensively trained in Pilates through Polestar Pilates in Alameda, California. She is recognized as a Polestar Rehabilitation Pilates Practitioner and Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher. She also has training in vestibular rehabilitation through the American Institute of Balance for Vestibular Rehabilitation. Finally, Keiko has done coursework in pregnancy and postpartum rehabilitation through Herman and Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation.

In her physical therapy practice, she treats a variety of patients with orthopedic, sports, vestibular/vertigo, pregnancy and postpartum problems/dysfunctions. She integrates her knowledge from her various trainings and certifications, manual therapy, Pilates, and specific corrective exercises to develop a comprehensive treatment program with her patients. She is highly motivated by helping her patients get back to the things they love to do injury-free.

In her Pilates practice, she enjoys working with clients of all movement backgrounds and finds joy in empowering others with positive movement experiences. She is able to create individualized Pilates sessions for clients who may be concerned about participating in Pilates due to specific diagnoses or mobility limitations.

Keiko grew up in the South Bay participating in a variety of sports including gymnastics, soccer, volleyball, cross country, and track & field. In high school, she developed a sports injury between her cross country and soccer seasons, which affected her running and performance as an athlete. It was her physical therapy experiences as a rehabilitating athlete that contributed to her interest in becoming a Physical Therapist.

Keiko lives in the South Bay and loves traveling, running, doing Pilates, and spending quality time with her husband (also a Physical Therapist) and two sons.
