bit.ly/workatPakolea Company Description

Pakolea LLC is owned and operated by Shauna Russell, DPT, MBA who purchased Big Island Physical Therapy in November 2015. Pakolea LLC was started in 2009 as a mobile therapy company that transitioned into more clinic-based operation in 2011. Shauna has operated clinics on Maui as well as Molokai but needed to move to the Big Island so her son could attend Nawahiokalaniopuu (Hawaiian Immersion School) in Keaau, HI.

Our company is committed to providing comprehensive movement assessment using the Selective Functional Movement Assessment and the Functional Movement Assessment to pinpoint weakness, imbalances, and impaired movement patterns to not only improve the patient's current pain but to address the "reason" their condition progressed by correcting abnormal movement patterns.

Our team is dedicated to making our patients and clients STRONG in whatever activities they wish to do from being able to walk independently to returning to a college sport or just increasing their overall fitness levels by using current evidence-based techniques to address impairments with long-term benefits.
