About
Bio
The fields I combine in my practice are a mouthful of words & letters: Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) plus Neuromuscular Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (NMM/OMM). Simply said, I help people of all ages who have a wide range of conditions release pain and dysfunction and feel well again. Please get in touch!
