Dr. Ana helps active people move well, stay strong, and keep doing the things that matter most to them. Raised in the small West Texas town of Presidio, she learned English in 2nd grade after her family immigrated from the Philippines. She earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy at the University of Texas at El Paso, then began her career in College Station, Texas (Gig ’em!).
Growing up, Ana played basketball, volleyball, and track and field, surrounded by a family of educators. That mix of movement and teaching shaped how she practices: hands-on treatment paired with real patient education. She is certified in dry needling and is an ICE Certified Pelvic Health Provider, and she loves working with gym-goers, lifters, runners, and recreational and competitive athletes, as well as people navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and pelvic floor dysfunction. Her goal is to help you move beyond pain, build confidence in your body, and bridge the gap between rehab and long-term strength and performance.
Outside the clinic, Ana is a competitive Olympic weightlifter, a coffee and energy drink connoisseur, and a fan of trying new restaurants (preferably Mexican) with her husband, Jon, and their two dogs, Pacman and Ruby. Fun fact: she set a state deadlift record at her very first meet.
