My Focus & Approach

Optimal health is a complex, dynamic, and lifelong pursuit. I see myself as a guide in a patient’s journey by helping them improve their health literacy and making realistic lifestyle changes. Through a variety of educational, hands-on, and exercise techniques, each person’s treatment plan is customized to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and build capacity to reduce the risk of future injury.
