You are not
alone. Many people suffer from undiagnosed pain syndromes that rob them of their vigor and happiness. Most clinicians are not familiar with conditions that can lead to this pain. However, there is hope.
You need not suffer any longer. I have spent the last 17 years in practice honing my skills both diagnostically and therapeutically to better serve my patients.
Early on in my career I realized that the main reason people get injured is due to biomechanical faults in their movement patterns that place undue stress and strain on areas of their bodies. Muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia, and other connective tissue structures take the brunt of stress during everyday movements.
Doing the same thing day in and day out adds stress to your body. Micro-tears can occur in the soft tissues that lead to pain and further damage. As your body heals these tears, scar tissue is laid down. This scar tissue is akin to fibrous glue that binds the tear together. Unfortunately it can also bind other tissues to it, leading to adhesions.
Adhesions can occur within the same structure, or between two or more structures. When you move and one muscle glides past another, normally, no pain is felt. However, if the two are adhered together, then using either of them will lead to pain.
It is important to get these adhesions (and the scar tissue that forms them) out of the muscles and connective tissues so that you can return to optimal movement. Unchecked these adhesions can cause muscle “knots“, nerve entrapments, stiffness, tingling and burning at the adhesion site, or at a referred location elsewhere in the body.
Using advanced techniques including Active Release Technique, Functional Dry Needling/IMS, Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization, as well as Fascial Manipulation, I can get to the root of the problem, and resolve chronic distress in the tissues in a relatively short period of time.
