ActiveBody Functional Therapy delivers a holistic approach to one’s health and wellness.

By combining various manual therapy modalities (sports massage, deep tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point release, tui-na, shiatsu, cupping), stretching, strength training and nutritional support we assist you in optimizing functionality of your body.

Activities of life, walking, running, sitting, standing, throwing, lifting, pushing, etc., will cause a buildup of muscle tension and result in muscular tone imbalance.

Through postural analysis we identify the muscular imbalances that cause the feeling of tightness, pain and restriction of movement. During treatment session we strive to release built up tension, reactivate the muscle and rebalance the system. This offers a freedom of movement, performance improvement and faster recovery.

For 4 years, working on the city ambulance, I witnessed results of choices that people made in their life. Choices in lifestyle, food, activities and presence of the mind. This experience has driven me in the position to influence one’s choses much earlier in life and to achieve a more positive outcome as a result.

Environment of my childhood respected and promoted physical strength and athleticism. My journey in to the world of strength started with kettlebells at the local gym. It quickly transitioned in to weight lifting and strength training. Martial art training was part of growing up and a big part of my life for many years. During my college years I worked as an assistant strength coach at the school gym. It was our job to assist team players in developing strength and agility. In turn that made them better players. Today it is called Functional Training.

Having been active most of my life I realized that we often require guidance and assistance on the journey to a better self. Simply going to the gym or trying to follow a fad diet or a workout plan might not give you the sustained health and wellness you are looking for. At ActiveBody functional therapy we offer an individual approach, and a holistic look at you and your needs & goals!

On my journey I was fortunate enough to meet wonderful teachers, to whom I am grateful for all the shared knowledge. Now I would like to apply all that they taught me to assist you in staying healthy, strong and fully functional every day for a greater enjoyment of life!

Let us help you feel young again!
