I graduated from the University of Evansville in Indiana in 1997, and I have been practicing in the outpatient orthopedic setting most of my career. Over the course of the past 28 years I've had the privilege of working with a variety of individuals ranging from D1 athletes, military professionals, injured workers, weekend warriors, and everyone in between who seeks to resolve pain and dysfunction and regain an active, independent lifestyle. 

I founded Vertical to offer an elevated standard of care. Unlike many traditional outpatient clinics, I provide undivided, one-on-one professional attention. Also, since one of the greatest barriers to receiving healthcare is accessibility, I offer evening and weekend appointments.  My evaluation techniques are exceptionally thorough and often identify sources of pain and impairment that other providers might overlook. My goal is to help you find relief when previous therapy hasn't been effective.

I hold advanced certifications in a variety of treatment techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for my patients. In addition to exercise, some of the services I provide include:

* Dry Needling of Trigger Points and electrical stimulation

* Blood Flow Restriction

* Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) with Ultrasound

* Taping (kinesiology tape)

* Certified in management of spinal conditions and referred pain

* Certified in treatment of vestibular conditions (vertigo) and concussion

* Job site analysis, ergonomics and employment testing

I treat a wide range of conditions, from acute sprains and strains to post-operative rehabilitation. Some of the diagnoses I address include, but are not limited to:

* Back Pain and Sciatica

* Neck Pain

* Headaches

* TMJ

* Whiplash

* Joint Pain/Sprain

* Muscle Strain

* Tennis Elbow

* Frozen Shoulder
