About


My name is Susan King.  My private physical therapy Clinic (PT and Pilates) is in beautiful Charleston S.C. I specialize in Pain Management and Postural Dysfunction.    I provide 1 on 1 therapy for such conditions as Scoliosis, SI joint dysfunction,  Spine Pain,  Pre & Post-Partum Pain, Headaches, Core Weakness, Fibromyalgia, Myofascial Pain Syndrome and  performance injuries from Ballet/ Running/ Ice-Skating/ Swimming/Yoga and more.

I received my Specialized Training in Pain Management at the Medical University of SC where I was the Manager of the Biofeedback Clinical Research Lab.  We were one of the very 1st research-based multi-disciplinary pain teams in the nation.   I consider myself to be a functional posture problem solver and treat the whole body, never just 1 segment.  I follow the principles of the Alexander Technique for my specialized posture work and I utilize a full array of Pilates Equipment in my PT studio. In warm weather, I often include aquatic therapy in my (on site) pool. You can go to my BLOG page and review my published article in “Advance Magazine for PTs”.  It outlines my clinical  approach incorporating Pilates  and Dynamic Cupping for “Structural Correction of Scoliosis”. 

8 years ago, I designed and patented my own unique set of dynamic cupping tools for Myofascial Release.  They are high quality, sturdy silicone cups that I manufacture here in the USA and I’m proud to say that patients love the fact that they don’t cause pain and they don’t produce bruising.  IN FACT, THEY’RE THE ONLY PT INVENTED DYNAMIC CUPS ANYWHERE!  To learn more about “Cup and Release”, go to  my Retail web-site ( www.cupandrelease.com ).  I would love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have!  You can contact me by e-mail at susankingpt@pilatesrehabpro.com
