Lower back pain | Upper back pain | Neck pain & Stiffness | Muscle spasms | Chronic or Recurring Pain

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

I perform a full movement assessment to identify the patterns driving your back or neck pain - not just treat where it hurts. Using chiropractic adjustments, manual therapy, and targeted corrective exercise, I address the root cause and build a plan to prevent it from coming back.

Herniated disc | Bulging disc | Radiating leg or arm pain | Numbness or tingling | Pain with sitting or bending

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

Many disc injuries respond well to conservative care when it's targeted correctly. I use specific movement assessments and manual techniques to reduce disc pressure, relieve nerve irritation, and progressively rebuild the stability needed to prevent future episodes — often avoiding the need for injections or surgery.

Shooting leg pain | Burning or tingling | Numbness down the leg | Pain with prolonged sitting | Weakness in the leg or foot

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

Sciatica is a symptom, not a diagnosis — and the source varies person to person. I identify whether the nerve irritation is coming from the spine, the piriformis, or somewhere else, and use specific adjustments, soft tissue work, and corrective exercise to reduce compression and restore normal movement patterns.

Muscle strains & sprains | Overuse injuries | Post-competition soreness | Tendon issues | Return-to-training after injury

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

I work with athletes at every level — from weekend warriors to competitive lifters and golfers. Our approach goes beyond pain relief: I identify the movement deficits contributing to the injury and build a return-to-sport plan that actually prepares you to train again, not just feel better on the table.

Shoulder impingement | Rotator cuff issues | Pain with overhead movements | Limited range of motion | Pain with bench press, etc

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

Shoulder pain is often driven by poor scapular control, thoracic stiffness, or rotator cuff weakness — not just a local issue. I assess the entire kinetic chain, use manual therapy and dry needling to address tissue restrictions, and rebuild shoulder stability through progressive corrective exercise.

Hip tightness or stiffness | Groin pain | Pain with squatting or lunging | Glute or piriformis pain | Hip mobility restriction

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

Hip issues often drive back pain, knee pain, and movement limitations elsewhere. I assess hip mobility, glute activation, and joint mechanics to identify what's limiting you — then use a combination of manual therapy, joint mobilization, and targeted strengthening to restore full function.

Knee pain with stairs or squatting | Patellar tendon pain | Runner's knee | IT band syndrome | Post-surgical rehabilitation

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

Knee pain is usually a downstream symptom of hip weakness or ankle restriction — not just a knee problem. I assess the full lower limb, address the contributing factors, and use progressive loading and corrective exercise to reduce pain and build the strength that protects the knee long-term.

Inner or outer elbow pain | Grip weakness | Pain with wrist flexion or extension | Pain with golf or racquet sports | Chronic tendon irritation

HOW VERTEX CAN HELP

These tendon conditions respond well to a combination of soft tissue work, dry needling, and progressive loading. I address the tissue health and the mechanical reasons the tendon is being overloaded — so the pain goes away and stays away, even as you return to the activities that caused it.
