If you’re a runner dealing with pain that keeps coming back (like your hamstring, knee, hip, low back...) this might be why:

Pain is a symptom of the problem, not the problem itself.

That’s why rolling, stretching, or resting only works for a while.
Unless we uncover the why behind the pain, it’s likely to return.

My runner-specific evaluation looks at how you load, absorb force, and move—not just what hurts.

We assess:
✅ Joint mobility + asymmetries
✅ Muscle activation patterns
✅ Stride mechanics
✅ Force absorption + compensation

When we isolate what’s actually off, we can correct the pattern, restore strength in the right areas, and help you get back to running without setbacks.

To get started, book a session with my link in bio.

If you want to discuss your case first, DM me CONSULT and we can set up a free 15 minute call.

Sciatica 101: PART 1: What’s Really Causing That Pain?

Sciatica isn’t just a diagnosis—it’s often a signal that something is irritating the sciatic nerve, usually at the root.

In this video, I break it down:
✅ What sciatica really is.
✅ Why disc issues are often the culprit.
✅ How your posture or movement might be keeping you stuck in pain.

Most importantly, we have to figure out what is CAUSING the irritation that is in turn causing your sciatica pain.

It often takes some good old fashioned physical therapy detective work to figure out the triggers and how to modify or eliminate them to get you out of pain.

Let me know if this helps!

My Running Assessment + Injury Treatment starts with a deep, runner-specific evaluation and hands-on treatment right away.

What I look at in the evaluation:
• Gait + stride mechanics
• Functional movement + activation patterns
• Stability + force absorption
• Mobility, flexibility + asymmetries

This isn’t standard PT. It’s targeted, diagnostic work for how runners actually move.

Then we build a program that gets you out of pain and back to running at your best.

If you’re a Boulder runner dealing with chronic pain (or looking to prevent injury) we’ll create a custom plan that meets your body and your goals.

Questions? DM me CONSULT and we can set up a free 15 minute call.

Feeling lots of gratitude for another 5 star review.

I used a variety of techniques to help Kiran find relief from his chronic back pain: cupping, massage, adjustments, manual therapy and electrical stimulation.

I'm grateful to have these tools in my toolbox.

He was in pain for over 9 months. That's a long time, so I'm glad he found me and is feeling 100% again.

If you’ve got a new pain, check the patterns.

A client came in with dull hip pain—but no injury.

When I asked what changed, she mentioned walking with a 15 lb weighted vest once a week. That was the pattern.

At 120 lbs, that vest is over 10% of her body weight. Her body wasn’t ready for it, and it showed up as compensation in the hip.

Weighted vests can be useful, but the load has to match your capacity—especially if it’s new.

We adjusted: lighter vest or shorter walks. Build from there.

Pain often comes from overload, not trauma. If something doesn’t feel right, step back and look at what’s new.

If you’re dealing with pain that doesn’t add up, DM me “CONSULT” and we’ll set up a free 15-min call to figure it out.

When pain keeps showing up without a clear cause, the nervous system is usually involved

So if things "check out" mechanically, we need to address the foundation:

Mindset, sleep, gut and oral health, nutrition, movement patterns, environment, and social connection all play a role in how your system processes pain.

When even one of these is out of balance, your body has a harder time recovering.

And once we understand what’s out of alignment, we can build a plan to restore balance, reduce stress load, and support your body’s natural healing ability.

If your pain hasn’t improved with traditional care, let's look at the big picture together.
