About

Hi, I'm David. I'm here to help you discover a fulfilling, magical life free of pain.

Believe it or not, you can eliminate muscle, nerve, and joint pain. Together, we'll tap into your inner wisdom, heal emotional blockages, and transform your body and mind to achieve optimal health!

I’ve been fascinated by the link between emotional and physical pain for as long as I can remember.

And I've put that curiosity to good use!

I’m a former college and professional tennis player who became a specialist in anatomy, biomechanics and physiology after graduating from UC Berkeley with a pre-med degree in Integrative Biology.

I ran my own Exercise Therapy clinic in downtown San Francisco for fifteen years and worked weekly with the San Francisco 49’ers for two.

MY STORY

As a young athlete, I was plagued by debilitating hip and back pain. Despite countless visits to doctors and therapists, traditional methods offered little relief. Driven by desperation, I turned to unconventional approaches like postural therapy, which began to shed light on the root cause of my suffering.

As I dug deeper into my own healing journey, I realized my physical pain was linked to emotional baggage. The pressure to succeed, the fear of failure—it all took a toll on my body.

Years later, as I worked with clients struggling with similar issues, I became even more curious about the connection between physical and emotional health. I realized that true healing requires addressing both aspects!

Inspired by my own journey, I’m dedicated to helping others break free from pain and limitation. By combining physical and emotional healing, we can unlock your body’s natural ability to heal itself.

Are you ready to embark on your own healing journey? Let’s work together to create a life of vitality and freedom!
