Personal
story
After experiencing a herniated disc that caused chronic debilitating pain and led to severe digestive restrictions, Brian discovered the Postural Restoration Institute. Using their techniques he was able to completely alleviate all of his back pain, fix his digestive issues, and address other chronic conditions he had throughout his life.​
The Approach
Learn to restore freedom in your body
​
Often patients have tried physical therapy in the past but have not experienced full relief from their original symptoms. They were given long lists of generic exercises they perform for years and while they may feel some improvement, they never really solve the issue or their symptoms return once they stop the exercises. Brian's unique approach to physical therapy is different- he considers how all systems of the body interact. By evaluating alignment, movement patterns, and compensatory strategies that contribute to your symptoms Brian can give specific and individualized techniques to correct the dysfunctional patterns. He gets you back to your daily activities quickly by resolving the root issue.

​
People can get stuck in patterns of tension that lead to overuse of tissues in the body. This overuse creates pain and dysfunction. There is often a lost connection with something in their body that they did not know they were missing or did not know how to find. Our nervous system relies on sensory input to manage stress and pressure in our body. Once we help you reconnect these pathways through movement retraining or hands-on manual techniques people experience immediate improvement in movement options and set the stage for healing in their bodies. Your brain will now recognize these new options as more efficient patterns as we help you integrate them into your life. This becomes the solution to long lasting problems.
