Bio:

I’ve practiced manual therapy for over 34 years, and target complex pain issues with a focused approach. Charting pain patterns combined with functional movement assessments, postural analysis, orthopedic testing and palpation helps identify overactive/underactive muscle groups and compensations. Various manual therapy techniques are utilized, and I test, treat and re-test within each session to measure improvements. Identifying and treating perpetuating factors is also a key focus in our work together. Integrating effective clinical sessions with individualized at-home daily exercises, including neuro-sensory-motor integration, and incorporating corrective posture and movement techniques can help restore balance to the nervous system in order to reduce, manage and/or eliminate pain.
