What I Do
I provide a wide range of therapeutic modalities rooted in Functional Osteopathic Techniques including: Positional Release, Craniosacral Therapy, Walk for Life (sponsored by Foundation on Movement Intelligence), and Ortho-Bionomy®. Using gentle movement patterns, I decrease chronic and acute patterns of pain, including muscle tension and joint pain. Back pain, headaches, TMJ, Fibromyalgia, knee pain, tennis elbow, foot pain, stress, carpal tunnel, and chronic pain are also issues that I address.
How I Do It
I analyze each client's specific needs and determine the underlying pathology, then formulate a plan of care. My background as an occupational therapist allows me to custom design a home program that empowers clients to take control of their bodies and lives.
