What feeds me in doing rehabilitation is seeing someone be able to do more of what matters in their life. With 26 years in Eastern and Western clinical practice, I bring a more nuanced ability to see patterns of dysfunction and have numerous pathways to effective care.
By personalizing care and bringing some expedient pain relief, we do well with anchoring trust and setting up programs for success. I welcome consultation on resistant/complicated cases, where we sometimes find new edges that allow people to do more again. Always considering long and short-term expectations of the patient, we adapt for systemic illnesses and disabilities.
While we aim to avoid surgery in many cases, we hold trusted surgeons dear. We lean towards minimizing injections, yet we do sometimes inject saline, anesthetics, proteins, sugars, alcohols, natural medicines, and occasional pharmaceuticals.
Injury, arthritis, and debility. Recent or chronic. Relief, repair, and renewal. We are on it.
