SueB Earl, MPT / Owner
SueB Earl, fondly referred to as the “foot whisperer,” has been practicing physical therapy in Durango for over 30 years. Though many people across the Four Corners area seek her out for her foot / ankle and lower kinetic chain passion and expertise, she is skilled and competent to effectively treat a wide array of body conditions.
SueB obtained her masters in physical therapy at Northern Arizona University in 1994, graduating Summa Cum Laude. She has enhanced her PT education extensively with orthopedic continuing education courses. She has certifications in Spinal Manipulation and Level III Functional Dry Needling. She also provides custom orthotics.
In addition to providing superior physical therapy care, SueB is passionate about sharing information with her patients to empower them to continue their care journey independently.
“Although I enjoy my time with my patients, I strive to get you feeling confidently prepared to return to the activities you love as quickly as possible!”
