The Work Behind the Wins
Pain isn’t just about tight muscles.
It’s a complex interaction between your muscles, nerves, lymphatic system, and fascial network — all of which impact your movement, pain levels, and overall function.
That’s where I come in.
I specialize in soft tissue recovery therapy — a clinical, evidence-based approach that goes far beyond relaxation massage. My work helps athletes and post-surgical clients restore mobility, reduce pain, and accelerate recovery so they can return to what they do best — performing at their highest level.
My 8-Step Integrative Recovery System:
1️⃣ Neuromuscular & Trigger Point Therapy (Dr. Janet Travell Method)
-
Releases 61 pain patterns linked to overuse and imbalance.
-
Targets trigger points that limit strength, endurance, and coordination — restoring balanced muscle activation and power output.
2️⃣ Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST Level II)
-
Improves joint space, flexibility, and speed through assisted stretching of the fascia and joint capsule.
-
Ideal for athletes needing explosive movement, recovery between games, or injury-prevention flexibility.
3️⃣ RAPID NeuroFascial Reset
-
A neurologically driven technique that resets pain at the nervous-system level.
-
Helps athletes move without guarding, break pain-memory loops, and regain full range after strain or trauma.
4️⃣ Myoskeletal Alignment (Erik Dalton Method)
-
Re-balances posture and joint alignment to correct torque patterns caused by repetitive training.
-
Enhances biomechanics, prevents compensations, and supports efficient movement under load.
5️⃣ Myofascial Release & Integration
-
Restores fascial glide, hydration, and tissue elasticity lost from training stress or scar tissue.
-
Supports smoother motion, better circulation, and long-term performance longevity.
6️⃣ Advanced Manual Lymphatic Drainage (CPST Certified)
-
Accelerates recovery from surgery, swelling, and micro-tears by improving lymph flow and reducing inflammation.
-
Crucial for post-op athletes or during high-volume training blocks to maintain tissue health.
7️⃣ Targeted Cupping & Breathwork
-
Combines decompression with nervous-system regulation.
-
Releases deep tension, enhances oxygen exchange, and promotes parasympathetic recovery — key for mid-season stress cycles.
8️⃣ Core Release & Diaphragm Decompression
-
Addresses the center of stability and respiration.
-
Freeing the diaphragm restores full-body coordination, reduces spinal compression, and improves power transfer in every movement pattern.
Collaboration & Philosophy
With over 14 years in advanced sports and medical bodywork, I collaborate closely with physical therapists, trainers, medical teams, and coaches to create integrated recovery plans.
I come to every session with an empty cup — ready to learn, listen, and align with the professionals around each athlete.
Confidentiality is non-negotiable: I never share names or details.
The wrong injury made public can cost an athlete a contract, a season, or a career.
Every recovery plan is individualized — addressing past injuries, current demands, and position-specific movement patterns so performance and longevity stay protected.
Let’s Work Together
Whether you’re an athlete, a coach, or a medical professional, I collaborate with those who are serious about long-term recovery and performance.
