I've always been an advocate for living energetically and devoted my life and career to this endeavor. My athletic background has enabled me to understand the biomechanics and competitive mindset of athletes. Therefore, I have a great handle on treating injuries that occur during sports activities. Following my wife's car accident I began to seek out the best treatments for those who have suffered injuries from auto accidents. This journey has lead to my proficiency in treating whiplash injuries. Moreover, chiropractic is more than a profession, it's a lifestyle. It's taking care of your body even when you aren't ill.

I have always believed that correcting the source of a problem is better than treating the effects. This mentality began early, after a recurring knee injury impacted my martial arts practice. It would get better, but never really went away. I managed and tolerated the pain for a long time. Nearly 10 years later, I finally received care, consisting of a combination of soft tissue care, adjustments, and movement therapy, and it resolved.
