PT, FCAMT, CSCS, CGIMS

JR’s beliefs: 

• Correct and specific diagnosis is the key to a timely and effective treatment plan
• Treat both the joint and the soft tissues that surround and support the joint 
• Always consider the nerve supply to the affected tissues
• Follow musculoskeletal chains up, down and across the body
• Corrective exercises should stimulate the optimal healing response
