Doreen Hall has been practicing physical therapy since 1989. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in physical therapy from Quinnipiac University and moved to San Diego where she started her career. Doreen has a diverse background in physical therapy with emphasis in manual therapy. Her clinical experience includes sports and orthopedic rehab, prenatal and postpartum rehab, work with seniors and osteoporosis, and much more. She has been teaching Pilates since 1999 and has found that it is an invaluable tool for integrating awareness and facilitating the body’s innate ability to heal through movement.
Doreen especially enjoys helping patients with back pain through an exercise system she has been developing over the past several years in her Pilates practice. Doreen owned and operated Pilates People with her husband Dave Hall for 15 years. She completed the Polestar Pilates training in 1998 with Brent Anderson and Elizabeth Larkam and continues to explore the use of the Pilates principles in all her treatments. She enjoys the diversity of working with clients of all ages to improve their quality of life.
