Our chiropractic adjustments focus on correcting spinal misalignments to alleviate pain and improve nervous system function. Using gentle, targeted techniques, we address issues like back pain, neck tension, and posture-related discomfort. Patients learn how structural balance contributes to overall health and mobility.
Bodywork Therapy
Customized bodywork sessions release muscular tension and improve circulation through hands-on techniques. We integrate myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and movement analysis to resolve chronic pain patterns. Clients gain awareness of how daily habits impact physical well-being.
Movement Coaching
Movement coaching teaches efficient body mechanics for dancers, desk workers, and active individuals. Sessions focus on gait analysis, ergonomic adjustments, and functional exercises. We help clients develop body awareness to prevent injuries and enhance performance in daily activities.
Posture Classes
Small-group posture classes explore the relationship between skeletal alignment and energy flow. Participants learn corrective exercises and mindfulness techniques to maintain proper posture. Classes emphasize practical applications for work, exercise, and restorative rest.

Report
George is the best. I am a highly skilled embodiment teacher myself, but George is where I go when I need help and I need an outside perspective. Most recently I saw him for pain resulting from arthritis in my neck, and after only 2 visits I was pain free and have remained so. I have referred multiple clients to George over the years and they have always had practical and powerful experiences of healing. The way out of pain and injury takes patience, care, and intuitive yet knowledgeable guidance - George has all of these qualities in abundance.
