Meet Our Therapists

Tabatha Petersen LMT, RMT, CMT, ART Practitioner, Owner

Tabatha Petersen is a neuromuscular therapist with nearly 30 years of clinical experience specializing in sports therapy, orthopedic injury, and functional pain relief. She is the founder of Woods Edge Therapy, a practice focused on individualized, results-driven care in the Naples area.

Tabatha is the former founder and owner of Naples Massage and Neuromuscular, a highly regarded sports and medical massage practice she built and operated for over 25 years. Her clinical background is rooted in sports massage, motor vehicle accident rehabilitation, post-surgical recovery, and the treatment of complex and chronic pain conditions.

Over the course of her career, Tabatha developed a highly analytical, assessment-based approach that integrates neuromuscular therapy, Active Release–influenced techniques, and functional movement principles. Rather than addressing symptoms alone, her work centers on identifying and treating the underlying sources of pain, restriction, and dysfunction.

She works extensively with active adults and athletes, including golfers, pickleball players, runners, and strength-training clients. Common areas of focus include repetitive strain injuries, restricted range of motion, nerve irritation, postural imbalance, and persistent pain that has not responded to conventional care.

Woods Edge Therapy reflects Tabatha’s commitment to clinical integrity, precision, and time-based care. Her practice continues to grow through referrals from clients who value experience, thoughtful assessment, and measurable results. MM32573
