GET TO KNOW YOUR THERAPIST
ABOUT VICKI DERESZKIEWICZ
Owner of BTY Therapy LLC
With over five years of experience in the athletic healthcare world, I’ve seen firsthand how often manual therapy is overlooked in sports and performance recovery. In the rush to get athletes back on the field, the body rarely gets the time it truly needs to rest, heal, and reset.
At Better Than Yesterday Therapy, I take a different approach. I believe that true recovery comes from balancing both the mind and body. Through focused manual therapy, I work to identify and treat muscle dysfunction, using targeted techniques to improve circulation, release tension, and restore natural range of motion. Each session is personalized — I don’t just follow a routine, I listen to your body.
Whether you’re an athlete or simply someone who wants to feel and move better, my goal is to help you feel stronger, more balanced, and always — better than yesterday.
Book your session today and let your recovery begin.

What Our Clients Say
I can’t recommend Vicki enough! She has an incredible intuition for finding all the right spots—often the ones I didn’t even realize were tight or sore. Her knowledge of the human body is impressive, she always explains why certain areas might be aching, which makes a big difference in how I understand and care for my own body. And don’t let her calm energy fool you—she has the strength of a beast (in the best way)! She’s amazing at adjusting pressure based on your needs and comfort level, but if you want deep, effective work, she’s got you covered. It’s rare to find someone who can combine expertise, strength, and sensitivity so well.
