I have been fortunate enough to find my passion, helping people achieve their goals and improve their lives in all aspects, and no matter the condition they start in. I have helped people achieve their goals ranging from getting more energy to play with their grandkids, to losing 60+ lbs and keeping it off in order to help their marriage. Early on I discovered that I had a natural inclination for helping people suffering from injuries and I chose to build upon this natural talent by reading everything I could get my hands on to grow my skillset. I have been lucky enough to help people with just about every condition under the sun at this point and have personally kept half a dozen or more people away from the surgeons scalpel.

A few of the conditions I have worked with include: bulging intervertebral disc, spinal fractures, spinal fusion and spinal stenosis, cystic fibrosis, total joint replacement– both knee and shoulder, torn rotator cuff, shoulder impingement, bursitis, «bone on bone» stage 4 knee arthritis, diabetes, SI joint dysfunction, frozen shoulder, scoliosis, IT band syndrome, ACL tear
