Aleala enjoys working with a variety of patients. Whether that be someone with chronic pain or an athlete who had surgery and is trying to return to sport. She believes that every patient should be treated with respect and kindness. Aleala uses evidence-based treatment approaches to ensure the highest level of care is given to her patients.
Aleala chose to pursue a career in the medical field because of an experience that she had to witness her mom go through while she was in high school. Her mother was involved in an accident that paralyzed her right side. Aleala watched closely as her mother worked with therapy to relearn how to do everything, regain full use of her right side and return to work as an RN. She was inspired by her mom and wanted to be able to help patients get their lives back just like her mom was able to.
Aleala is a native of La Junta. She loves the area, and has no plans to leave. Outside of work she enjoys spending time with her husband and son, being active outside either running/hiking, and going to the gym. She also loves watching the Nuggets, Avalanche, and Broncos with her family.
