🦶Get back to pain free walks, hikes, runs & adventures
🦶 Eradicate foot pain from home with a plan that’s catered to you
🔘Virtual + In Person🔘

My passion is helping people to get out of pain so they can get back to their favorite sports and activities! I provide one hour physical therapy sessions so I can look at the way your whole body moves, find compensation patterns and help break the cycle of pain you are in! For those committed to making real lasting changes, I have an online coaching program that includes virtual or in person asse

ssments and customized exercises sent right to an app on your phone. I pay special attention to the way you breathe and use your core muscles to help you function better from your core out to your extremities. And I also assess your feet to help you move better from the ground up. I specialize in treating foot pain because I feel the is a misunderstood part of our bodies. Rather than propping up our feet in stiff cushioned shoes with arch supports and orthotics, most people would benefit from getting their feet stronger so they can move well from the ground up and unleash their full potential!

You don’t have a deficit of arch support, massage or calf stretching.

You have a deficit in:

M O V E M E N T

Every person I work with has missing movement in their feet 🦶

And we need to look at your whole body because if you have a shoulder blade, spine or hip that’s kinda stuck ➡️ that changes the way you walk, run & land on your feet

There are loads of benefits to getting your movement capacity evaluated & then improving the deficits we find:

💫 more fluid movement

💫 less stiffness & pain in your feet & whole body

💫 better performance whether training to be a competitive athlete or grandparent of the year 🏅

We peel back one layer at a time, helping you unlock your full potential.

If you’re tired of searching for the perfect shoes or inserts & are ready to build confidence that your feet can support you on all your adventures, DM me LET’S GO

Tired of wasting money on shoes & inserts that aren’t helping your feet?
⁠
⁠
No shoe or orthotic can actually “fix” your foot pain.

Not even barefoot shoes- sure your feet get stronger when you wear them but they don’t help you overcome faulty movement patterns.

Our feet are resilient & designed to support us well.

But most of us need to “wake up” the healthy movements our feet should be cycling in & out of when we walk & run.

There is no perfect foot shape to prop our foot up in, our foot should be moving in & out of the high & low arched foot shapes with every step we take.
⁠
⁠
⁠
You can spend time & energy learning more about YOUR BODY & what it needs, instead of buying yet another pair of shoes to add to your collection.
⁠

⁠
I can teach you how to train your feet to support you well.⁠

⁠
If this sounds like the solution that you’ve been waiting for, DM me COACH.⁠

Got bunions?!
DON’T DO THIS:

❌ surgery (the bunion might come back if you don’t learn how to move your feet better so I’d start with this approach first!)

❌ wear stiff supportive shoes all day every day (this blocks your feet from moving properly & a bunion shows us that you’re feet aren’t moving well!)

Instead DO THIS:

🦶simple habit changes to boost foot health

🦶learn what you’re feet aren’t good at & train them to get better at those exact things

🦶learn the exercises your body needs to walk more fluidly (a bunion shows that something is “off” with your walking pattern)

The Bunion Self Treatment course is natural, functional & effective way to help your bunion from home

I take you step by step through this process so you can walk away from bunion pain & enjoy longer walks, runs & adventures

DM me BUNION or go to the link in comments to get started today 🤩🦶

It’s tempting to keep choosing the quick fix for your foot & ankle pain.

But that can keep you stuck in a cycle of pain for years or even decades.

How many years will you waste covering up your pain & limiting your full potential?

Make this the day you commit to learning how to move in a relaxed, fluid, confident way. With feet & ankles that support you well.

Stop letting pain put a wrench in your plans to go on long walks, runs & adventures.

DM me I’M IN if you’re ready to get started 🔥

I’m so glad I got a chance to help Norma walk with more confidence & 90% less pain in her hip & knee. 🙌🥹✨

Here are some other things she said after working with me remotely:

“My results amazingly better than I have experienced through insurance PT (4x)”

“The exercises chosen specifically for me were extremely challenging- I appreciate that!”

“This is more than I expected.”

The best part is that SHE learned & practiced & got herself out of pain through movement. I just provided guidance.

I evaluated her posture & walking pattern then assigned the specific exercises she needed.

If you’ve tried traditional PT a few x & it hasn’t helped - don’t give up.

When you learn & practice the unique exercises your body needs, expect results.

Norma’s posture & the way she walks have been transformed!

Taller, smoother & faster. Without all the pain.

Message me if you’re ready to get started.

Yes it’s true:
👉 You CAN train your feet to support you well without depending on arch support from shoes or inserts

🦶You CAN train them to support you well without pain

👍 Training your feet CAN help your ankles, knees, hips & spine to feel amazing

The first step is to test them, then train them to do what they can’t (yet!)

Ready to learn?

I have a group program, 1-on-1 remote coaching & in person sessions in WNY.

I’m here for you when you’re ready to take control of your pain & get back to long walks, runs & adventures - shoot me a message!

Plagued by ankle problems such as stiffness, instability or recurrent sprains?

Or maybe you’re dealing with painful foot issues such as plantar fasciitis, heels spurs, flat feet, high arched feet or Morton’s Neuroma?

No one seems to talk about this, but when you have issues with ankle sprains or foot pain over & over again, you can really lose confidence.

Maybe you hesitate to make fun or adventurous plans because you worry your ankle will roll for the 12th time or your foot pain will flare up again.

You choose the couch more & more because it feels safe.

The great news is you can train your feet & ankles to move better & support you with confidence.

Regular physical therapy exercises are just too basic.

Calf stretches & calf raises are not a good solution. Towel scrunches can make your feet worse. Exercising your foot & ankle with a band does not train them to support you well when we walk or run.

What you really need is exercises that take your feet & ankles through the movements they should be doing naturally when you walk & run.

They feel challenging in a way that you KNOW they are worth your time & effort.

You can feel them improve your walking pattern right after you do them.

Are you ready to walk away from foot & ankle problems so you can enjoy more beautiful adventures this spring & summer?

DM me ADVENTURE & we can come up with a plan. Virtual, in person, 1-on-1 & group options available- no excuses let’s do this!
