About me
My name is Virginia (Ginny) Henderson. I am a physical therapist, educator, and researcher with more than 25 years of experience in orthopedic and pediatric care. I am a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapists and a Board-Certified Clinical Specialist in Pediatric Physical Therapy.
My clinical and educational experiences provided the foundation for Henderson Therapy Solutions, where I help physical and occupational therapists confidently provide safe, evidence-informed manual therapy with children and adolescents. I’m passionate about making complex concepts practical, adaptable, and immediately useful in the clinic.
My Story
I got into physical therapy after seeing a documentary on helping orphans behind the Iron Curtain in the 1990's. That marked me so deeply that I have spent the time since then making space for people who are vulnerable. I love being a part of people's stories and their healing, so physical therapy is the perfect fit for me. Part of that sense of calling is helping others do the same, which is why I have shifted focus from the clinic (where I still see patients a few hours per week) into education. I use the tools and resources on this site regularly and want them to be helpful to therapists like you so that you can be part of the story and healing of others.
