About Me

Natalie Imrisek, MSPT, CSCS is the owner and founder of Framework Physical Therapy. She holds a Masters in Physical Therapy from Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, and brings over 20 years experience to her physical therapy and dance medicine practice. Natalie's passion for providing specialized physical therapy for dancers and performers began in New York City, where she treated the dancers of internationally-recognized dance companies including Alvin Ailey, Paul Taylor, American Ballet Theater, Cedar Lake, Merce Cunningham, and Martha Graham. Through her work with the world renown NYU/Harkness Center for Dance Medicine, Natalie provided physical therapy for countless stage productions in both ballet and on Broadway. She continues to provide services to dancers/performers in Los Angeles. She has worked with a number of productions at Pantages, Dolby, Geffen, Ahmanson, Taper, Dorothy Chandler and Royce Hall. She is on-site PT for CalArts Dance, Westside Ballet Academy, Los Angeles Ballet (2023 and 2024), and Genesis/GenPro (2022-2024).

My Approach to Care

Natalie is dedicated to the art and science of physical therapy. Through careful assessment and integrative care, we work with each patient to develop a treatment program that restores health and creates a long-term foundation for mobility and strength. The art of physical therapy is going beyond the patient's complaint; we treat with a holistic approach, combining manual therapy, pilates and gyrotonic rehabilitation exercises, posture and gait assessment, and nuero-muscular reeducation—all tailored to each patient's unique physiology.

What to Expect in Your First Session

The first session will be a comprehensive evaluation that is 60 minutes. We will discuss goals, plan and treatment approach.
