What does Dave Do?
Dave helps people enjoy active lifestyles by troubleshooting pain and movement difficulties that prevent the quality of life they deserve. He practices a sophisticated but simple system.
This system addresses the moving parts such as fascia, muscle, ligament, nerve and joint capsules. He uses his hands to determine if moving parts do not move correctly when adhesions or scarring form as we move through our lives as domesticated humans. Once a problem site has been identified, he uses the appropriate protocol for reestablishing the movement of tissues.
He utilizes a system that ranks and documents movement patterns that are key to normal function. This informs us of required adjustments in your treatment, fitness or training program to help meet your goals.

30 minute office visit is most common. We get a lot done in a short amount of time.

The extended office visit length is ideal but not required for a first visit. This extended office visit is best for a combination of soft tissue treatment, Functional Movement Screen and movement training.
Why Make an Appointment?
1. A skilled provider can detect tissue problems that cannot be detected with conventional medical and orthopedic testing.
2. To bring permanent resolution to conditions that have been considered untreatable.
3. Your brain is smarter than you. You don’t often realize that your compensating for lost movement. Discover how you feel when your tissue movement is restored.

•Any athlete that has plateaued or has decreased performance.

• Someone that has responded to conventional treatment but has plateaued before complete resolution.
• Symptoms of pain, numbness, tingling, aching, burning, pulling, and decreased range of motion.
