How We Work Together
I HURT! How many times have you held yourself back from doing something you enjoy because you were in pain?
We do not have to accept living in pain. I have searched for ways for us to do better. We can shift you out of pain so you can enjoy doing what you love.
Myoskeletal Alignment Therapy is one of those techniques I use that goes beyond traditional massage and bodywork. Combined with breathe work and gentle movement we get you out of pain and keep you out of pain longer, if not forever.
I have helped many people reduce their pain in only one session. The better we care for our bodies, the better they treat us in return.
At Shift, we believe in helping you thrive instead of survive.

90 percent of pain is caused by muscle imbalances. These imbalances were likely created by posture, injuries and habits we have.
I have designed these Shift Posture Transformation Programs to include a 3 dimensional approach that is customized for you.
Shift Posture Transformation Programs focus on:
- Alignment (your body movement and breath)
- Muscle Rehabilitation (In office & home exercises)
- Habit Re-Education (Incorporating mindful habits into your daily life)
Proper posture will reduce or eliminate the pains that are holding you back from having a full thriving life.

With more people living to be 100 yrs old, we deserve the best quality of independent and pain free life for as long as possible.
Pain management and prevention are key to a good quality of life.
Muscle imbalances, falls and injuries are easier to prevent than recover from, especially as we age.
Reviewing your body’s composition and postural alignment can help us catch muscle imbalances before they lead to chronic problems and pain.
Life happens and time can get away from us. Have you had your Posture Imaging and Assessment done this year?
American Posture Institute recommends getting your posture assessed yearly.
Let’s see how your posture stacks up or if it can be improved to avoid pain or injuries?
