A glimpse into my daily routine as a Physical Therapist and Pilates Instructor. 🤍

Pilates is one of the many tools I integrate into my physical therapy treatments. At NovaVida Physical Therapy, Pilates & wellness , I practice Clinical Pilates—a personalized approach that combines the principles of Pilates with rehabilitation to help each client move better, recover safely, and achieve their goals.

I often tell my clients that Clinical Pilates isn’t about following the same routine for everyone. Every session is thoughtfully tailored to each individual’s condition, movement patterns, lifestyle, and goals. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or simply looking to improve your strength and mobility, your treatment plan is designed specifically for you.

My mission is to provide one-on-one care that empowers my clients to move with confidence, reduce pain, and improve their quality of life—because every body deserves an individualized approach to healing.

✨ At NovaVida, your rehabilitation is as unique as you are.

Hello, my name is Kellen Foganholi.

I am a licensed Physical Therapist and certified Pilates Instructor based in Jacksonville, Florida. I have dedicated the past 19 years to the field of physical therapy and 14 years to teaching Pilates, helping individuals restore movement, reduce pain, and improve their overall quality of life.

My passion for rehabilitation began long before my professional career. As a competitive volleyball player, I had the privilege of playing at the collegiate level in the United States and professionally in Brazil. Throughout my athletic journey, I experienced firsthand the physical demands of sports and the challenges that injuries can bring. Those experiences inspired me to pursue a career in physical therapy, with the goal of helping others recover, perform at their best, and return to the activities they love.

Over the years, I have continued to expand my clinical expertise, specializing in the treatment of chronic pain and complex musculoskeletal conditions. I believe in an individualized, hands-on approach that addresses the root cause of dysfunction rather than simply treating symptoms.

My treatment approach integrates evidence-based techniques, including Myofascial Release, Dry Needling, Visceral Manipulation, and advanced therapeutic technologies such as Winback TECAR Therapy and BEMER Therapy, to support the body’s natural healing process and optimize recovery.

My mission is to empower each patient through compassionate, personalized care, helping them move better, feel stronger, and live healthier, more active lives.

Your feet represents your root. The expression “ keep two feet on the ground “ describes how they anchor, calm and keep us stable physically and psychologically.
Our feet also represents our connection with concrete reality. Firm footing requires certain vigilance on the part of the brain
Also.. there is a relationship between the feet, the kidneys and the intestines. The inside part of the plantar arch relates to the urogenital system and the outside portion correspond to the intestines. So pain in the arch can indicate a problem in these areas

When evaluating our clients we need to look at the whole picture, specially when for us physical therapists our special tests do not bring the results that we expect. Understanding this emotional and visceral correlations can really help our approach when treating our clients with pain and discomfort
Again, pain can be mechanical from trauma and orthopedic injuries but it can also be referred.

Do you know what your pelvis and hips represent ?
Pelvis represents the house and its foundation. Pelvis is the expression of our roots, our territory and family lineage and our capacity to anchor ourselves
The hips represents the way of life, daily routines, habits, values, our stability and familial attachment.
And why am I saying this? To remind or let you know that not all your body aches and pains come from mechanical forces.
Pain can originate from mechanical forces but also initiate with our emotions that can create a weak spot in our body and manifest as pain or referred pain.
We are body, mind and spirit and there is no way we can separate that when treating people. So the problem or injury we see, a lot of times, can be a manifestation of something way deeper than we think 🙏
