Lisa Vivian

Physical Therapist PT, CMTPT

Lisa Vivian possesses a lifelong passion for the field of Physical Therapy. She was a physical therapist at Orthopedic & Spine Therapy from 1990-1996, when she left to pursue her desire to raise a family. In 2010, she came back and began treating patients once again. What is most notable is that she kept up her continuing education and licensure as a physical therapist during all of her years at home with her children.

One of Lisa’s reasons for becoming a physical therapist is her passion for helping others improve their quality of life. She also enjoys building “relationships with patients as we work together through their pain and injuries”. One of her favorite parts of treating is when she is able to see her patients “progress to a less painful and more functional status, and be able to manage for themselves”. Lisa feels that one of her strengths is her genuine care for each patient’s individual situation.

Outside of the clinic, you can find the Marshall, Minnesota native spending time with her husband Tim and family. She enjoys going up north to their cabin in Minocqua, gardening, cooking, running, playing tennis, and volunteering at her church and community service organizations.
