Why I Do This Work

I started powerlifting during chiropractic school over a decade ago. Not only did strength training improve my physical and mental health, it made the long days of bodywork and studying much easier.

Once I started practicing, I developed a passion for patients with complex pain and dysfunction. Working with people experiencing years of unexplained pelvic pain and discomfort, general joint pain, fatigue, and inflammation drove me deep into research and learning about multi-faceted pain conditions. I saw that the best medicine was being heard, being held, and being pushed.

My sessions combine myofascial release, acupuncture, heavy strength training with sharing deep chats, giggles, and tears. My goal is to have my patients feel connection and trust in their body, and to get so strong that every day life feels manageable.
