How We do it
OUR PROVEN PROCESS

Biomechanics & Injury ASSESSMENT
Discover the secret behind The Movement Underground’s Success Stories: our Comprehensive Movement Diagnostic System. Traditional diagnostics like static tests, MRI, or X-ray only reveal the current state of your body, not the underlying relationships and hidden opportunities for progress.
Our Movement-Based approach uncovers the WHY behind your pain or performance issues, guiding personalized treatments and program design for faster results.
Don't miss out on unlocking your body's full potential – let’s evaluate your movement for optimal outcomes.
Custom Bodywork & Manual Therapy
Unlock your movement potential with targeted manual therapy treatments tailored to your needs. Our hands-on approach delivers exceptional results quickly, aiming to reduce pain and enhance movement capacity. Our range of manual therapies includes Active Release, Myofascial work, IASTM, Soft tissue flossing, Cupping, Joint Mobility, and more. Your therapist will work closely with you to determine the most effective techniques for your goals. Beyond treatment, we empower you with self-care strategies for ongoing improvement.

Corrective Rehab Exercise & Performance Training
Optimize your movement through movement itself! Our manual therapies unlock your potential while customized training programs enhance your movement, reducing pain, increasing efficiency, and promoting sustainability.
Treatment unlocks potential, but training locks it in. Tailored program design is essential for maximum results. Generic templates or daily workouts may overlook key opportunities. By pinpointing the highest ROI areas through assessment, we craft programs to address root issues, fast-tracking your path to fitness goals and pain relief.
Recovery Lounge
In addition to manual therapy and performance training services, we also take advantage of technological advancements in the human recovery space. Modalities like IR Sauna, Cold Plunging, Red Light Therapy, Normatec (Intermittent Pneumatic Compression), Compex and Marc Pro NMES (NeuroMuscular Electrical Stimulation), & Percussion/Vibration devices to elicit and enhance cellular recovery, blood flow, and pain mitigation. It’s our mission to provide every advantage to our athletes and clients, so they get the most out of their training, therapy, and life!
A cold Plunge is a great way to ramp up Dopamine and Norepinephrine production! We use the latest science and biohacking principles to give every athlete and client the ultimate edge and results!
We customize our unique blend of services to each client, or as an industry only All- Inclusive Experience. To find out more, or which services make sense for you…let’s connect and discuss what your best path forward looks like.

Our Mission
IIt all started when…
I was an injured HS athlete. A once promising local talent…derailed by injury…
Knee torn up…athletic future in serious doubt…I slipped through the cracks in the healthcare system…
I went to countless therapists, doctor’s, and alternative health practices looking for an answer as to why I was unable to reach my prior level of performance. Why, despite all my effort, was I still in pain and unable to compete with the pre-injury version of myself.
Unfortunately for me, I ended up stuck on the hampster wheel of chronic pain, poor performance and seemingly no answers…
So I changed paths. A journey to find answers for myself. I went on a mission to be the best sports medicine practitioner I could be. On a mission to heal as many people as I can with my head, my hands, and my heart.
So that no athlete or active person would ever suffer the same fate. Not on our watch.
The Movement Underground is built by athletes, for athletes, to give you a ONE STOP SHOP for all things performance rehab, training, and recovery! Our highly trained team, and network of the best providers in the area, makes sure that you get the best possible outcome.
Whether you are a competitive athlete, or someone who simply wants to reclaim their body. The only way to do that is for us to TEACH YOU. It is my sincerest hope that once you’ve given us a try, we will EARN your trust, and be in your corner for life.
Let’s do this. Together…We can BE UNBREAKABLE.
