Founder’s Vision

Tracey Vincel, PT, M.Phty, CBBA FOUNDER & PHYSICAL THERAPIST at KNOSIS

Our vision for KNÓSIS is to be a place to awaken to our body’s full potential.

Rooted in love and knowledge, we learn to care for ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us.

To elevate the experience of having a body. 

As a physical therapist of more than 28 years, helping my patients move out of pain and learn to care for their bodies, I have come to realize that well-being is an embodiment of love and knowledge. Balancing feeling and thinking. Feminine and masculine. Body and mind. Matter and consciousness. To understand something as complex as the human body, we need many lenses, many angles, and layered lived experiences. Beginning with our physical structure, we learn how to align against gravity, connect to our core, center, balance, breathe, and move with greater awareness and choice. Ideally, our minds become more open, flexible, creative, and attuned to our inner knowing. I have gathered this understanding through years of advanced academic training, clinical practice, and personal exploration. I have traveled the world seeking the best practices, research, clinical reasoning models, and technologies to bring back to KNÓSIS.

My husband Galen and I have explored many of the Earth’s and humanity’s wisdom traditions. Our greatest teachers, however, are always our own bodies and experiences. The cultivation of this gnosis within ourselves and within our partnership is what we intend to share.
