About our team

Lisa Klein, PT, IMT.C 

Lisa_KleinTotal Health Physical Therapy is the newest practice to be opened and operated by Lisa Klein, PT, IMT.,C. Lisa graduated with her degree in physical therapy from The University of Maryland at Baltimore in 1991. Lisa was always interested in holistic medicine and was exposed to chiropractic care, osteopathic care, craniosacral therapy, and massage therapy throughout her undergraduate and PT education. Once she began working in the traditional field, Lisa realized how much holistic manual medicine could add to functional PT practice, and she began looking for the manual practitioners who offered the best technology and training.

Lisa began her manual training by taking several classes through the Upledger Institute in Florida in 1992, where she was very pleased to learn several levels of Upledger craniosacral therapy and Barral visceral manipulation. In 1997, she took a class on the Integrative Manual Therapy (IMT) model of manual medicine and was extremely impressed with the tremendous results she was seeing. From 1995 to 2001, Lisa took over 25 IMT classes and founded an outpatient PT clinic in Athens, GA that specialized in bridging the gap between traditional PT and the world of holistic manual medicine. In 2001, Lisa was recruited to open the CenterIMT office in Washington DC.

In 2002, Lisa became a certified IMT practitioner teaching for DCR, Northeast Seminars, and The CT School of IMT. Lisa has become a sought-after IMT instructor and has taught classes throughout the US, Israel, Hong Kong, and Chile. Lisa was also the founding President of the Board of The Integrative Manual Therapy Association, the international association of IMT therapists.

Prior to specializing in IMT, Lisa worked in virtually all traditional PT practice settings, and she brings that experience to her IMT training. Lisa has also had extensive exposure to (and professional use of) Pilates, Integral Hatha Yoga, neuro feedback, and Sensory Integration.  Over the last several years Lisa has developed a specialization in integrating Functional Medicine into IMT based practice, with excellent results.  She continues to expand her knowledge of health and nutrition and she is a May 2015 graduate of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, earning a certificate as a Health Coach.

Lisa practices in the DC office on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. She practices in the VA office 3 Saturdays a month.

Bill Amos, PT

After graduating from the University of Maryland in Baltimore with a Physical Therapy degree, Bill Amos has spent over 30 years in post graduate studies learning a wide variety of hands-on techniques. Since the early 1990’s he has also taken numerous classes from the Integrative Manual Therapy team. Bill has worked in almost every type of Physical Therapy setting: home care, nursing homes, hospitals, shock-trauma, in-patient, as well as out-patient settings. He prefers an eclectic approach, always addressing the cause of the condition, not the symptom. Beyond working on Musculo-skeletal problems, Bill successfully addresses headaches, foot problems, TMJ, dizziness, neurological conditions such as Cerebral Palsy and Parkinsonism, among others.
In manual therapy, he sees his hands as his primary tools. Those techniques allow the release of the key problem of muscles in spasm, followed by realignment of the body.

Bill practices in the Washington, DC office Monday and Friday.
