About
I have been in private practice since 1995. Currently my practice is located in University Place since 2012. I have authored my own books on stretching and teach flexibility and stability work around the US and internationally.
As a clinician I have always worked in the rehabilitative field. My time working in the medical environment has given me experience with a huge variety of conditions. I have worked with pre and post operative orthopedic conditions such as hip, shoulder and knee replacements. I have worked with nearly every kind of spinal condition you can imagine and especially shine with bulging discs and scoliosis. I excel with the lymphatic system usually able to make a visible change in swelling during treatment. I am also exceptional with hand numbness, so much so that if this is your symptom, you can rest assured it will be gone in less than 4 treatments.
Part of the process is doing your homework. I know nothing can help in your healing like you taking responsibility for your body. To help empower you, I will create an individualized program of self care to accelerate your healing.
I offer a comprehensive treatment option for those in pain (from acute to chronic), those looking to feel better and/or enhance their performance. My experience will guide me to figure out exactly what has gone awry in your body and help you reduce pain and restore balance quickly.
You will often be amazed how quickly you can heal from seemingly impossible challenges when you put your mind and effort to it.

Great massage! First half is a relaxed and satisfying stretching session followed by the more traditional massage. Because of the addition of the stretching you really feel much better afterwards than a massage alone could achieve. Can’t wait for my next session!

With COVID-19 and my massage therapist closing shop, I was looking for another therapist that would be a good fit. Joshua is an excellent practitioner. I enjoyed my first visit with a combination of AIS and massage. Now I’m looking forward to continuing to see Joshua as a partner in my healthy future.

I am a body worker of over 20 years, and when I need work done to keep me going (often), I go see Joshua. He is extremely knowledgeable and the stretching technique (AIS), combined with the MLT is fast and effective. I always feel much better after seeing him.
