About

I have spent 21 years in a multidiciplinary practice.  I have worked with medical doctors ,physical therapists and massage therapists in a very busy office.

When these professions work together, the results are amazing.

I am a big proponent of spinal decompression and manipulation under anesthesia for the treatment of chronic disc problems, and have seen clinicallythe drastic improvements that result from these types treatments.

I have also seen great results from the use of K-Laser treatment (Class 4), for the reduction of pain and adhesions.
