“Thank you so much for putting me back together!”
~J.C AVP pro beach volleyball player

“I sought Ed’s knowledge and expertise two years ago with having significant pain and loss of function in my hands. I have multiple chronic pain conditions including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome as well as arthritis and stenosis in the cervical (spine). When Ed is working on a patient that is all he is thinking about. He is incredibly passionate about helping others increase function and decrease pain using techniques that focus on the nervous system. Ed is always on a quest to learn more including researching his patients conditions, alternative treatments, as well as expanding his techniques. I came to Ed in a lot of pain, feeling quite hopeless. With his treatment, I am stronger, in less pain and have increased function in daily living. Ed has brought hope back into my life.”
~A.V.S

“Ed has the hands of a healer. When I leave, I do not hurt and everything feels good! Thank you!” ~G.P.
