PURPOSE:

I have created a sacred space for healing on all levels, physically (cellular and structural), mentally and spiritually. Utilizing nature, sound, light, and intension, along with manual technique, I offer myself and my farm as an instrument to those who do not respond to conventional forms of treatment. Using this purely osteopathic foundation, I provide the highest quality manual physical therapy services and education to patients with chronic pain and/or complex dysfunction.
