Melanie Jacoby is a physical therapist at AAMG Physical Therapy - Pasadena, specializing in orthopedics and myofascial pain. She completed her Master of Physical Therapy at the University of Maryland Baltimore and has advanced certification in dry needling and fu's subcutaneous needling.  For Melanie, making a difference in someone's life is what she loves most about her work. She believes in basing treatment on what her patients need, not a cookie-cutter plan. That's why she develops a unique treatment approach for every patient, using whatever techniques and tools will help them reach their goals. Her hands-on approach helps patients learn how to care for themselves and take responsibility for their success.  A former Division 1 softball player, Melanie has passed on her athletic skills to her three children. She still stays active, hitting the gym a few times a week and loves relaxing with her family on a boat or at the beach.
