Don't resign yourself to living with chronic pain.

When you have a herniated disc, sciatica, or recurring lower back pain, your body protects itself by becoming stiff. Sometimes, the pain isn’t where you think it is, but rather a reflection of a blockage elsewhere. My approach isn’t just to “treat where it hurts,” but to trace the chain of injury. I use myofascial and neurofascial induction techniques and deep manual therapy to release the structure at its root, rather than just applying a temporary fix.
