I was first introduced to Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) as a client. Struggling with my own injuries from an active lifestyle, I grew more and more frustrated leaving each appointment with doctors scratching their heads over what was wrong. I knew they were missing something, and––having been a corrective exercise personal trainer since 2005––I decided to seek out muscle dysfunction treatments on my own.

That’s when I came across MAT, and I’ve been an advocate for it ever since.
After becoming a regular MAT client and experiencing its incredible healing effects firsthand, I wanted to help other people find relief from the same frustrations. So in 2008, I began my own MAT practice and became an MAT Certified Specialist in 2010, Completing my Mastery in 2014 and the Rx hand and foot courses in 2016.
