Description

Paul’s treatment approach is to incorporate manual therapy techniques (including joint and soft tissue mobilization), therapeutic exercise, and education in the treatment of his clients. He strives to identify underlying pain causing factors such as muscle imbalance, postural fault, and movement dysfunction and subsequently creates an individualized treatment plan to restore each client to their normal activity and function. Paul treats clients for a wide range of injuries and pain with particular interest in the treatment of neck pain, headaches, shoulder rehab, hip, knee and back issues.
