Humans are meant to move, and our movement is not always pain-free. Reducing your pain will allow for optimal movement and a feeling of wellness that results from understanding and being in control of your body.
We work as a team to determine the most appropriate and effective path for you, following three steps:
- UNDERSTAND THE CAUSE
- ADDRESS THE WHY
- INCORPORATE WHOLE BODY FOCUS
This covers a combination of manual and active therapy, education, and neuromuscular training, which will enable you to return to activities that you enjoy and love.
