I perform a manual therapy that involves using my thumbs to apply deep pressure into the muscles and connective tissues to address a variety of musculoskeletal issues, including neck and back pain, headaches, rotator cuff strains and tendinitis, golfer's and tennis elbow, wrist strains, carpal tunnel syndrome, hip bursitis, gluteal tendinitis, quad and hamstring strains, patellar tendinitis, shins splints, ankle sprains and plantar fasciitis. I do not adjust patients.

Yes!  Chiropractic care is considered a qualified medical expense and you can use your HSA (or FSA, HRA) card to pay.

No, I don't accept any forms of insurance.  However, you are able to use your HSA, FSA or HRA card to pay for your appointment.  

Please wear clothing that allows me to get to the areas that need to be treated.  The majority of the time, I work directly on the skin and I use coconut oil unless you have an allergy or sensitivity. Stretchy shirts that allow me to get to the shoulder or upper back and shorts that give access to the knee and thigh are helpful. 

Yes, I have treated many kids over the years. 

Typically, it takes me 3-4 appointments to resolve musculoskeletal injuries.
