I offer cutting edge, mind/body solutions for spine and joint pain.
I am an expert—chiropractic doctor, functional movement specialist, coach, nutritionist, yoga teacher, bodyworker, and Ayurvedic doctor—my goal is to help you move smarter, better, and pain-free.
I Can Help. Your pain doesn’t tell the whole story. I can figure out why the pain started. I can figure out what aspects of your everyday life: your environment, nutrition, exercise routine, and posture need to be changed. I don’t just treat symptoms, I work with people. You are an individual and what works for you doesn’t work for everyone. By having a personalized approach I go above and beyond for you.
Team Approach. I recognize that healing takes a team. This means that you will work with and be supported by many approaches and practitioners until you get a full resolution of your symptoms. I combine my extensive knowledge, techniques, and styles to ensure your best treatment plan. I work together with other doctors to ensure that you are continuing to progress. It’s a collaborative approach and it’s the most effective way to get you back to the things you love.
I Know My Stuff. Most people don’t have a crazy injury story. Most people don’t even know why they are in pain or what happened. And sometimes they’ve gone to other clinics and haven’t found the answers. I pledge to figure it out for you and design a path forward. I will spend the necessary time to recreate the scenario in our office (jogging, lifting, posture, etc.) or do whatever it takes to figure it out.
I Am A Teacher. It’s not what you remember from today, it’s what you remember ten years from now. I wan’t to give you the knowledge and tools to take care of yourself. I want to be a vital part of your team so that you can reach your highest physical potential. I love learning from the best and then giving you the resources that I have learned so that you can recover faster, improve your performance, and prevent injuries. Let me help you live a lifetime of health and wellness.
