We begin with a 15 minute No Cost Consultation on the phone to discuss your condition(s), concerns, and goals to see if the STOP The Pain Program is a fit.
After a brief 15 minute phone consultation, if we both agree that this partnership could provide you pain relief, an Initial 90 minute consultation will be scheduled.
The Initial 90 minute Evaluation is to gain information to determine the root cause of your pain and to better understand your current pain levels and situation. An assessment of your range of motion, muscular strength/weaknesses, and posture (while sitting, walking and/or standing) will be documented. A full history will be gathered on other therapies/modalities you have tried and talk about any of your other health concerns.
Based on the findings, a complete plan of action will be designed to provide you the quickest pain relief and the most comprehensive improvements we can achieve together.

A full history will be gathered on other therapies you have tried and talk about any of your other health concerns. Based on the findings, a complete action plan will be designed to provide you the quickest pain relief and the most comprehensive improvements we believe we can accomplish with you!
On Initial Consultation day, you will also receive a targeted session of Active Modulation Therapy and begin your journey to reduced pain. A series of 3-5 additional follow-up sessions will be scheduled 2-4 days apart to ensure continued reduction in pain through repetitive neuromuscular re-education.
Our GOAL with STOP The Pain Program is to get you out of pain and improve your ability to move your body with less stress, strain, or pain. We will educate you on proper biomechanics and ergonomics (How to lift, bend, sit, work, etc) to improve your posture which reduces or eliminates stress, strain, and pain.
After your initial consultation session, we will determine the frequency and number of session we believe will be necessary to address your pain. Typically 2-4 additional follow-up sessions will be recommended over a course of 2-3 weeks.
The closeness in sessions and receptiveness aid in the re-education of your muscles as well as reinforces healthy movement and usage.

STOP The Pain Program is not a "typical" massage like images represent online or that you may have experienced in the past. STOP The Pain Program is an outcome based, goal focused collaborative therapeutic session between you and the therapist.
Sessions are usually clothed as you are on/off the table testing and checking for movement and pain level. There is consistent check-ins and conversation happening while on the table to ensure you and therapist are on the same page. This is a PARTNERSHIP and you are contributing to your session the whole time. There is no snoozing or sleeping in these sessions. These are working active therapeutic session.
You will be assigned homework and movements to reinforce the progress reached in each session to ensure the progress continues and reduction of pain is experienced and maintained.
