If it keeps coming back, there’s a reason.

Most pain isn’t where the problem lives. Your shoulder hurts because your hip stopped doing its job. Your neck aches because your thoracic spine has been locked up for years. Your low back goes out every few months because no one has addressed why it keeps happening.

That’s what I do. I find the compensation patterns your body built around an old injury, a surgery, or years of repetitive movement — and I treat those, not just the place that hurts.

I work with people who:

  • Have tried massage, chiropractic, or PT and keep ending up back in pain

  • Are dealing with a chronic injury that won’t fully resolve

  • Are recovering from surgery and want to get back to full function, not just “good enough”

  • Are athletes who keep re-injuring the same area

  • Have been told their pain is just part of getting older — and don’t accept that

Conditions I commonly treat:

Chronic neck and shoulder pain

Often driven by thoracic restriction, poor scapular mechanics, or compensatory patterns from an old upper extremity injury.

Low back pain

Frequently rooted in hip weakness, SI joint dysfunction, or compensation from an earlier ankle or knee injury that was never fully resolved.

Knee pain

Including IT band syndrome, patellar tendinopathy, and post-surgical stiffness — assessed for the upstream hip and foot mechanics that are usually driving it.

Hip and SI joint dysfunction

Complex, often misunderstood, and highly responsive to NKT-guided assessment and treatment.

Headaches and cervicogenic pain

Assessed for the suboccipital tension, upper cervical restriction, and jaw patterns that most practitioners miss.

Post-surgical recovery

After orthopedic procedures including joint replacement, rotator cuff repair, ACL reconstruction, and spinal surgery. I work alongside your medical team to restore full neuromuscular function, not just range of motion.

Sports and athletic injuries

Recurring strains, overuse injuries, and the compensation patterns that develop around them. I work with athletes who need to stay in their sport, not just rest.

What to expect

Every session starts with a movement assessment. I’m looking at how your body is actually functioning — not just where it hurts. From there, hands-on treatment targets the tissues that are inhibited or overworking, followed by specific movement work you take home to reinforce the changes we make on the table.

This is clinical work. It takes engagement from you and precision from me. The result is lasting change — not temporary relief.
