About Desire Wellness

Marty Sanchez, PT, DPT, GCS

As the Founder and Owner of Desire Wellness, I began my career as a Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2005. I had the opportunity to practice in various settings as both a staff practitioner and in a management role. These settings include high-profile hospitals, community care centers, multiple rehabilitation centers, and Alaska's largest orthopedic care clinic up until now.

During this time, I've realized the gap that exists for the majority of individuals to be able to acquire skilled professional physical therapy and professionally guided exercise programs. Patients who can access professional physical therapy services are insured and are fortunate to navigate through the health care system built in the U.S. Also with the development of easy-to-use platforms that assist the public with services and learning modules, I saw an opportunity to reach individuals seeking to improve themselves around the world.

My goal is to serve customers around the world with the best effective and efficient guided online physical therapy exercise programs.

Emily Sanchez, DPT

I completed my doctorate in 2007 from Loma Linda University. I transitioned my career to promote health and wellness by becoming a certified health coach. As a doctoral trained physical therapist, I understands the science and physiology of how our eating habits will immediately improve and prolong our lives.

From 2007 to the present, I have had the opportunity to practice in a variety of settings. These settings include acute care in hospitals, short- and long-term rehabilitation, and home health.

I look forward to working with you and guiding you to reach your goals.
