Big Ivy Physical Therapy and Wellness
Hi! Thanks for visiting!
Big Ivy Physical Therapy and Wellness opened in 2019 with a mission of helping people to live happier, more fulfilling lives by relieving pain, healing injuries, and getting people fit at any age. Big Ivy is a particularly beautiful and magical part of the Pisgah National Forest where I regularly walk, swim and get re-energized. It’s a special place for me and I want to bring that energy of nature into the work that I do.
I’m Angel Trail, Physical Therapist and Owner. I love to CrossFit, dance, be in the forest, and spend time with my loved ones. I’ve been practicing physical therapy since I received my Masters of Physical Therapy from UNC-Chapel Hill 2007. I can quickly identify what’s going wrong in the body, and I know the best ways to fix it. I opened my own physical therapy business so that I can make all the decisions about the level of care that I provide, have access to the best fitness equipment, and also have the schedule flexibility to take care of my sons.
I have done many different physical activities over my lifetime, starting as a small child with gymnastics and then continuing on to ballet, cheerleading, martial arts, acrobatics, ballroom dance, Latin dance, Brazilian dance, pole fitness, aerial arts, Zumba, weight lifting, running, and CrossFit. Currently I focus on CrossFit and dance, both participating and instructing.
All my movement experience really informs my PT practice, helping me understand the physical demands people place on their bodies as well as the joy and meaning that comes from activity.
I come to work everyday with passion, excitement and confidence that I will be providing the best care available to my clients.
