A holistic physical therapist approaches rehabilitation and wellness with a comprehensive view of the body and mind. They integrate traditional physical therapy techniques with holistic practices to address the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. In assessments, they consider not only the physical symptoms but also lifestyle factors, emotional stressors, and personal goals. Treatment plans may include a combination of manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, mindfulness techniques, and nutritional guidance tailored to each individual's needs. Holistic physical therapists emphasize patient education and empowerment, encouraging active participation in their healing journey. They prioritize creating a supportive and nurturing environment that promotes overall health and vitality. By addressing the root causes of dysfunction and promoting balance in all aspects of life, holistic physical therapists aim to facilitate long-lasting improvements in physical function, emotional resilience, and quality of life.

In 2019, I founded Elev8 Movement to provide individualized support for my clients’ health, wellness, and mobility. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with clients facing pain, mobility issues, and various other health conditions, such as arthritis, high blood pressure, diabetes, fibromyalgia, obesity, IBS, and depression, among others. Many of these clients also juggled multiple life challenges like childcare, demanding jobs, or complex family responsibilities, making self-care seem impossible.

My mission is to offer solutions, guidance, and actionable steps to help people align with their values and regain control of their lives.

My journey to becoming Dr. Steven Baptiste DPT, OCS was influenced by my career in professional sports, which ended due to injury. This experience allows me to empathize and connect with each of my patients.

Originally from Brooklyn, New York, I earned my B.A. in Communications from American International College, where I also played football and received All-Conference honors. Following my career-ending injuries in the Arena Football League, I pursued further education to transition from being a patient to becoming a clinician.
