Jeff focuses on the proper development and mechanics of athletes, helping to identify any dysfunction or restriction that may be affecting performance and efficiency.  He has firm beliefs in restoring proper movement patterns not only to athletic and high intensity movements, but also to everyday tasks that are often taken for granted.  With a background in a wide array of sports, he is able to train athletes with a functional focus.  Jeff is skilled in soft tissue therapy, corrective exercise, functional training, and rehabilitative exercise, but is constantly striving to improve and keep up with the current research and best practices.  His vision is to create a high-quality full-service athletic facility, typically only available to the elite professional athletes.
