Fewer than 5 percent of all Physical Therapists hold this degree of specialty.  With over 30 years of experience in neurologic, concussion and vestibular physical therapy, she is recognized as an expert among medical and PT peers. Julie is the Concussion Physical Therapist for The Denver Broncos, and is a consultant to the United States Olympic Committee, the NHL and NFL for complex concussion cases. She is also the neuro vestibular PT for Resilience Code, a functional medicine neurosurgery and neurology clinic in Denver CO. Many years of multi-disciplinary team dedication, data collection and research led to the creation of the CLEARED® Concussion Recovery Program, a detailed algorithm protocol that is continually progressing to push the envelope of best practice in evidence informed concussion care.  In 2000, Julie was awarded the “Outstanding Physical Therapist of the Year” for the state of Colorado. She has served on many insurance panels advocating for patients with Medicare and commercial insurance, and has lectured extensively the past 30 years as an invited speaker at over 35 seminars, including team training staff for NFL and NHL teams, the NBA ATC association, the Department of Defense, the USOC, as well as many State and National APTA Conferences. 

Julie began practice in Denver CO in 1992. In 1995, she joined South Valley Physical Therapy to further her specialty in neurology. As President and owner of that company for 19 years, she led the practice to grow from 2 to 10 therapists, and from 1 to 4 locations. In 2015, in an effort to focus on providing exceptional concussion consulting, and specialized vestibular and neurologic therapy in Castle Rock, she founded Neurobalance PT.
