Christian Dressel

Physical Therapy Aide

 

I was born and raised here in Sandpoint, Idaho. I graduated from Sandpoint High School in 2018 and played four years of soccer there. I then moved down to Coeur D’ Alene and graduated from North Idaho College in 2021 with an Associate of Arts degree in general studies. After that, I transferred over to Warner Pacific University in Portland, Oregon where I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology degree. I also played five years of soccer while I was in college. My next goal is to work/gain experience this next year here at Kauai Therapy and get into Physical Therapy school so I can obtain a doctorate in PT. I worked here this past summer as an aide and now I’ll be back here this whole next year!

The core values that drive me in life are integrity, creativity, adaptability, curiosity, gratitude, respect, teamwork, courage, authenticity, and selflessness.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ― Marianne Williamson

At Kauai Therapy & Wellness, I specialize in modalities such as heat, ice, e-stim, ultrasound, and cold laser. I help the physical therapists and assistants with tasks they cannot perform at the same time so it can vary from instructing exercises to cleaning, etc. Something patients have to deal with that I want to help with is improving their level of pain, function, and attitude toward exercise.

 

I enjoy working at Kauai Therapy because of the family environment here. All of the staff and patients are great people and all of them are motivated to get better every day.
