WHO WE ARE
A TEAM
We recognize that caring for each patient involves our entire team.
We love what we do. We love it because we recognize that modern life is inherently stressful and potentially deleterious to our health. To be in service every day helping to ameliorate the stresses of modern life and in doing so helping you stay active and strong is why we do what we do. We are all active, I run still run marathons, ride my bike across the state and get into the mountains as often as I can. It is a lifestyle, combined with care and compassion, that we want to help facilitate in you. You are the reason we are here.
MEET DR. STEVE
I have had the privilege of practicing a progressive and compassionate form of health care for over twenty years. In this time, I have partnered with over six thousand patients to help them resolve many different health concerns. Concerns ranging from severe and crippling low back pain to every conceivable soft tissue injury, to helping manage chronic degenerative neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s, to sports performance enhancement for weekend warriors, high school state champions, collegiate athletes of all sports, to professional athletes in baseball, volleyball, soccer and football. It has been an incredible experience and an incredible opportunity to learn about how we, as people, develop, heal and achieve robust health. More recently, as many of us have become a bit older, I’ve begun to focus on how to master the experience of healthy aging.
Aside from the thousands of relationships I’ve had the privilege to be part of, the greatest aspect of my job is that I get to live and practice all the same principals of health and healing. By exploring and experimenting proper rest, by developing a strong and consistent mindfulness meditation practice, by continuously exploring the joys of healthy eating and by constantly staying active with a bike commute, competitive and adventure running, mountain climbing and ocean swimming, I’ve enjoyed the pleasures of fitness and adventures as I enter my middle age years.
I could not have been more fortunate to have discovered this career. As I enter the second half of it, I am eager for opportunities to share my experiences in all areas of healthy living. Opportunities including principals of diet, exercise and mindfulness and endorsing products and supplements I personally use and believe in.
I bring 24 years of experience and enthusiasm to each visit with you. My hands have had more than 70,000 treatments in them. I know how to find and fix your problem. But I enjoy so much more about our sessions. I strive to create a treatment experience where the conversation and connection is just as valuable as the physical work. I work gently but you will likely be challenged a bit during some of the therapy. It is in that challenge that you will learn a bit more about yourself.
MEET KENT
Kent will always challenge you. If you want to move better, while also learning how and why you need to move better Kent is your therapist. He brings unbelievable energy to the office every day and towards every session. Kent will work with you and teach you in a one-of-a-kind treatment session. Think expert body work combined with customized personal training. You will come out moving better and stronger. And by the way, If Kent hasn’t seen you in a while beware of Kent’s hugs – they can be crushing.
MEET BROOKE
Brooke, a former Canadian National Swim Team member and Elite Athlete, became an Osteopath after overcoming her own sports injuries during her swimming career at McMaster University. Her mission is to help individuals recover while maintaining success and balance in their lives. She aims to empower her patients to take control of their healing and independence, striving to educate them about their injuries. Brooke's commitment to lifelong learning ensures she stays updated with the latest techniques in her field.
MEET CINDY
We value the crucial role Cindy plays in your care. As a certified Medical and Chiropractic Assistant, she actively contributes to your well-being through vital checks, administering treatments, and providing advice on supplements. Cindy also ensures a seamless referral process, personally coordinating appointments and verifying insurance coverage. Her dedication to facilitating your care, including research for out-of-town patients, is invaluable in today's complex healthcare landscape.
MEET YOLANDA
Yolanda is a natural at being available, friendly, helpful and will always pay attention to the schedule, in order to minimize waiting time. She will recognize who may need a little more time, all to best accommodate you. Paradoxically, I’m never prouder of our care when we, in fact, can’t resolve your complaint without a referral. I’ve watched Yolanda stay on the phone and listen patiently to one of our regular patients let off some steam regarding events that we had nothing to do with. The consistent effort she puts in towards that end makes me very proud .
