TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY

Evan believes that the most essential piece to successful rehabilitation is to develop a solid patient-therapist alliance. His goal is to strengthen this bond each session He doesn’t see himself as someone’s PT, rather serving as a stepping stone to help patients achieve their goals.  Evan believes in treating the individual as a whole – mind, body, and spirit. His treatment approach is simple – whatever is working, let it ride and build on it – regardless if it’s manual therapy, functional training, and exercise.
