"My formal training began in 2005 with a holotropic breathwork class and my education & practice have yet to cease. An associates in biological sciences was my next step, and is where my love of neuroplasticities ermerged.
"Spending two consecutive years immersed in the tutelage of the best chiropractors in the valley, I gained invaluable experience with bodily injury as well as physical manifestation of emotional trauma, not to mention countless evauations. Shortly after I gained my bachelors in Kinesiology & Movement Science from San Jose State University. Since then, I have been working with the most knowledgeable Athletic Trainers, Chiropractors and more recently, Urologists, Gynecologists and other healthcare practioners.
