He uses a combination of manual therapy to restore proper movement and therapeutic exercise to restore strength. His approach to PT is to create a unique, individualized plan of care with an emphasis on achieving your goals.

Brian's
Story
Brian was very athletic. From his early days at St. Thomas More Grade School playing on the fields and courts of the Parochial League and playing soccer for the Udinese Soccer Club, where he was chosen as a Missouri Olympic Development soccer player, Brian learned to love and excel in sports. He played soccer, football, basketball and track at Rockhurst High School, loving every minute of it. Finally, he went to the University of Missouri where he played football until an injury forced him to quit.
