Hey! I'm Sam.
Nice to meet you.
Fascial Stretch Therapy
Your body is wrapped in fascia - a web of connective tissue that links everything together. Daily habits, injuries, stress, or trauma can cause this tissue to stiffen or adapt in ways that limit movement. Because fascia connects the whole body, tension in one area can show up as pain or restriction somewhere else.
​
In a session, I move your body for you using slow, intentional stretches that work with your nervous system, not against it. You’ll be guided to breathe, relax, and notice what’s happening in your body as it moves. Many people describe the experience as calming, grounding, and surprisingly effective.
This work isn’t about forcing flexibility - it’s about creating space, restoring balance, and helping your body remember how to move with ease.
Injuries & the Body
Injuries change how we move — even long after they heal.
When you get injured, your body adapts to protect you. Muscles tighten, movement patterns shift, and certain areas stop doing their full job. This is intelligent and necessary at first — but over time those protective patterns can stick around longer than they’re needed.
My work helps your body re-learn safer, more balanced movement so you’re not living in compensation mode forever.
Chronic Pain
Chronic pain isn’t always about what’s “wrong” — it’s often about what’s been stuck.
Pain can come from old injuries, repeated stress, or movement habits you’ve carried for years. It can also be influenced by how your nervous system learned to protect you through life experiences — not just physical ones.
Fascial work and mindful training help your body explore movement it hasn’t accessed in a long time. As those patterns soften, many people notice not only less pain, but a sense of ease and relief they didn’t know was possible.
Training With Me
Your body is meant to do things, not just survive daily life.
Training should support expression, not just exercise. However, my training supports all movement practices from weightlifting, to sports, to yoga.
My approach combines Fascial Stretch Therapy, corrective exercise, and intentional training to:
-
increase usable range of motion
-
reduce that “tight, crunchy, stuck” feeling
-
build strength where you actually need it
-
help you feel more connected and confident in your body
This isn’t about pushing through pain — it’s about moving forward with awareness, clarity, and purpose.



Training & Approach
Manual therapy works best when it’s paired with movement.
Hands-on work can help your body release restrictions — but lasting change happens when you learn how to move differently afterward. My work blends both: skilled manual therapy and thoughtful, individualized training.
I’m certified in personal training and trained in several movement systems that focus on posture, joint health, and spinal organization. These approaches help improve how your body moves as a whole — not just how strong or flexible it looks.
I place a strong emphasis on the spine. Most of us develop small imbalances over time from daily habits, stress, or old injuries. These patterns can affect how we breathe, move, and generate strength. To me, a strong “core” isn’t about bracing — it’s about being able to move powerfully and confidently from an informed, supported spine.
I’ve also spent years working alongside physical therapists, learning how to guide movement in ways that support healing rather than fight the body.
Above all, this work is collaborative. I’m here to support your goals. If you want exercises, guidance, or education, I’m happy to offer it. If you prefer a more hands-on, quiet session, that’s always welcome too. Our time together is for you.
