He is also certified in acupuncture, and has a special interest in jaw pain (TMJ disorders). Dentists and Orthodontists regularly refer to him to treat jaw noise and pain, with most patients reporting excellent results within a few weeks of treatment!

He is a strong proponent that “Exercise is Medicine”. His experience and expertise can help anybody experiencing pain or reduced mobility, to safely and effectively resume moving their body again.
