Clinical Approach

How I Practice

Care begins with measurement. Orthopedic and neurological screening, posture assessment, and movement analysis guide every clinical decision — not assumption or habit.

When corrective care is appropriate, plans are structured from Day 1 with a defined graduation date. Progress is tracked through objective markers at each phase.

When it isn't appropriate, I'll tell you that directly and point you toward whoever can actually help.

01

Scan

Comprehensive bio-structural analysis. We find the mechanical drivers — not just where it hurts.

02

Plan

A clear, finite plan with a graduation date. Findings explained in plain language, not pressure.

03

Restore

Progressive correction that rebuilds function and strength — with performance goals addressed as stability improves.

Training & Certifications

The Background Behind the Care

Credentials matter when they translate to better outcomes. Here's what each one means for your care.

Doctor of Chiropractic

Cleveland Chiropractic College, 2014

Four-year doctoral program covering clinical sciences, diagnosis, and hands-on technique. Kansas License: KS-0106157.

FAKTR Certified

Functional & Kinetic Treatment with Rehab

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization combined with active rehabilitation. Addresses tissue restriction and movement dysfunction simultaneously — faster, more durable results than passive treatment alone.

Human Movement Specialist

HMS Certified

Advanced training in movement assessment and corrective exercise. Means your care plan addresses how you move — not just where you hurt — so corrections hold longer term.

Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner

CFMP

Training in root-cause, systems-based medicine — gut health, hormones, inflammation, nutrition. The reason QLC can address more than mechanical pain, and why the functional medicine side of this practice exists.

First Visit

New Patient Evaluation

Each new patient appointment reserves a full 60-minute clinical block. No rushed intake. No pressure to commit to anything before you have full information.

At the end of the evaluation, you'll have a clear picture of what's driving your symptoms and what a structured correction plan looks like — or an honest referral if chiropractic isn't the right fit.

Beyond the Clinic

Outside the Office

I stay active through tennis and youth sports coaching. The same movement and performance standards I apply to my own training inform how I approach patient care — I'm not prescribing anything I don't personally hold myself to.

Coaching my kids at tennis and baseball keeps me connected to what real physical performance looks like outside a clinical setting. It's a reminder that the goal isn't pain-free — it's capable.

"The goal isn't a pain-free adjustment table. It's a patient who doesn't need one anymore."
