Allison Schmidt, PT, DPT

Allison brings a thoughtful and experienced approach to care. She is especially skilled at integrating Pilates into treatment plans to improve strength, control, and functional movement. Allison enjoys working with a wide range of patients, with a particular interest in balance deficits, Parkinson’s disease, and women’s health, including prenatal and postpartum care.

Having first experienced EW as a student during her clinical rotation, she was drawn to the one-on-one care model, emphasis on manual therapy, and the supportive company culture—factors that have kept her a valued part of the team for over a decade. Amanda Krumrie, Clinic Director of EW Motion Therapy Homewood, shared, “Allison’s depth of experience and her ability to blend Pilates with rehab truly set her apart. She has a calm, encouraging presence that helps patients feel confident and supported throughout their care.”
