MEET SCOTT
Since becoming a physical therapist, I have always looked for the most effective and impactful treatments for my patients. Early in my career, this led me to a certification in joint manipulation as well as specialization in muscle training. With each new technique, I found myself more effective in helping my patients.
However, I was completely unprepared for the profound changes I would see with Counterstrain. Using just the content from the Introduction to Fascial Counterstrain course, I was suddenly helping patients faster than I ever had and in some cases improving symptoms I never dreamt of changing. I was hooked immediately and have been striving for excellence in Counterstrain ever since. Each year I pack as many classes into my schedule as possible.
I tell all my patients: Don't accept pain. Life happens, the body hurts,
but we move on. And there's the problem. Each injury leaves us with
a little more pain and a little less motion. We attribute this to "growing old,"
that "old injury," or that "old accident." We accept that this is the
way things are. It does not have to be that way. With Counterstrain,
I can help you overcome the pain.
WHAT IS COUNTERSTRAIN?
Our bodies have a remarkable ability to heal if given the chance. I focus on removing
the tension and inflammation that builds with everyday life, traumatic injuries, and surgeries.
The majority of my individualized treatments employ a method called Fascial Counterstrain (FCS).
FCS is an innovative system of soft tissue manipulation that allows me to identify the areas of
the body that are inflamed. Once identified, I use anatomical knowledge and informed touch to gently and painlessly decompress that tissue and restore the body to normal.

"After several sessions with Scott, my pain level dropped so significantly that my whole life changed for the better. I had struggled with severe neck pain for over 14 years. No more just struggling to get through the day. Now I am ready to see what's next."

I was in so much pain when I visited you and now I am feeling fine. I can do all my daily activities without pain. You taught me a series of exercises that help me to keep free of pain. Also, my computer and chair set up at my office is better now. Thanks for the recommendations... I especially appreciate that you always continue to learn new methods of treating patients. You are an excellent professional who truly cares about his patients. Muchas gracias!

"I cannot express my gratitude for having Scott as my physical therapist, and really caring about me. He has helped my legs so much. It seems like it's just clicked together. I have not been this mobile in years. My kids are so happy to know I don't have the pain I used to have... I just wanted you to know how you have changed my life."
