Dr. Marissa Aron earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. She, then, returned to her home state of Florida where she has continued with specialty training in pediatrics and women’s health/pelvic floor physical therapy. She ultimately founded Mom & Me PT when it became clear to her that both infants and new moms are lacking the care they need in the traditional healthcare system.

Due to the rapid increase in infant “equipment” used today, problems such as torticollis, flat heads, poor tolerance for tummy time, and delayed milestones have become commonplace. Dr. Marissa feels passionately that parents should be educated on tips to prevent these issues. Additionally, because motor development is closely linked to development of the visual, vestibular, sensory and nervous systems, she encourages consistent check-ups for this development just as babies receive check-ups for medical health.
