Personal care requires a personal touch

Our Passion

Our passion is to ensure that the patient gets exactly what they need. Our practice exists to break the cycle of the patient becoming a commodity in a revolving door of health care. We find out why you are in pain and then identify the best treatment to improve your function and eliminate your pain. The majority of treatment consists of manually breaking down muscle adhesion. 

The most enjoyable part is seeing a person’s face when their problem is truly identified and addressed. The happiness that we can share when someone is able to wake up in the morning without pain, run their best time, lift their grandchild, achieve a personal best in a competition, and play ball with their children – this is what motivates all of us.
