Mission
Recover Faster, Move Smarter, and Live Stronger!
At Fit-Habilitation, our mission is to revolutionize the way active individuals recover and thrive after injury.

Our innovative approach ensures a seamless, personalized path from recovery to full fitness, helping you stay active and ahead in life.
Dr. Kara Shull isn’t like any other physical therapist. As the founder of Fit-Habilitation, she believes in treating every individual like an athlete—whether they’re competing at a high level or simply aiming to live a more active life. With her Doctorate in Physical Therapy (DPT) and certification as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), Kara offers an innovative approach to recovery that blends physical therapy and fitness, tailored to each person’s unique needs.
Kara started her career working with elite athletes in sports like tennis, football, baseball, and hockey at gyms, tennis clubs, and high-performance training facilities. While she thrived in this environment, she realized that everyone deserves to have their body functioning at its best—whether that means excelling in sports or simply being able to enjoy life without pain or limitation.
This insight led her to create Fit-Habilitation, where she helps busy individuals regain their fitness and health. Her approach focuses on full-body postural alignment and nervous system retraining, ensuring faster, more efficient recovery. Kara treats clients of all fitness levels with the same dedication and care she gave to professional athletes, helping them move better, feel stronger, and get back to their best selves.
To further support her clients, Kara developed the Spine Strong - 21-Day Core Transformation Program, a specialized program targeting the deep core muscles to improve posture, reduce pain, and build a strong foundation for better movement and strength. She believes that a strong core is key to living a healthy, pain-free life.
At Fit-Habilitation, Kara’s mission is simple: to help you recover faster, move smarter, and live stronger. Through her hybrid model of care, which includes both in-person and virtual sessions, Kara makes it easier than ever to prioritize your health—no matter how busy life gets.

Why Us?
Fit-habilitation specializes in spinal health and fitness—a unique blend that focuses on strengthening the spine, stabilizing joints, and enhancing overall core health. We take a comprehensive approach to spinal care, treating patients like athletes and guiding them beyond recovery toward a fit, active lifestyle. Our programs are designed to reduce pain, improve posture, and build long-term stability, empowering clients to achieve spinal health that supports every move, every day.
Our hybrid model of care is designed to transition clients from in-person to virtual sessions as efficiently as possible, combining hands-on techniques with advanced remote support. This approach allows us to begin with personalized, in-person assessments and treatments that set the foundation for recovery. Then, we move clients to virtual sessions, where they continue their progress through customized nervous system and postural retraining exercises. By doing so, we empower clients to build spinal stability, improve posture, and maintain results independently, with ongoing guidance for sustainable, long-term health.
