Stacey M. Gayer, PT

About Me

Stacey Gayer, PT has been a manual physical therapist for 24 years. Gayer holds a Master's of Physical Therapy degree from Thomas Jefferson University, and specializes in myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation and pelvic floor rehabilitation. She treats both women and men with pelvic floor dysfunction. She is a member of the APTA and Pelvic Health Section and International Pelvic Pain Society. Stacey has also treated patients in an acute care setting, skilled nursing facility, aquatic therapy and outpatient settings. She has worked in the DMV area and Philadelphia, and is currently a solo practitioner in North Bethesda, MD.

Stacey provides a thorough assessment of her client that includes posture, musculoskeletal system, balance, visceral listening, and pelvic floor assessment if needed. Her individual treatment sessions are typically an hour long, ensuring patients have the dedicated attention they deserve. Sessions consist of manual therapy and exercise/posture instruction for ongoing self-care.  

When reflecting on her approach to healing, Stacey says, "I view the body as connected from head to toe through the fascia system. I treat the mind, body, and spirit. My patients get results: more movement and less pain. My passion is helping people heal and getting their lives back!"

When she is not treating patients, Stacey enjoys nature walks, yoga, holistic healing, live music, dancing, being involved in her community and spending time with family and friends. She is also very interested in healing modalities from all over the world.
