In my previous career, I served as an ordained minister in a progressive and inclusive denomination, and I hope that some measure of spirituality or mindfulness has accompanied me into my present calling.  In college, I was a physics major, and I hope that an appreciation for science-based practice has also accompanied me into my present calling.  I enjoy hiking, backpacking, and spending time with my family.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by mike on Apr 10
David listened well and was thoughtful about his approach to my issues. I appreciate the care he talk to try to figure things out.
by Christina on Feb 10
I (and my husband) have been coming to David for a few years. At the time, I had been looking for a therapist with a firm touch. Found it! In addition, David also worked with/on me to alleviate some tingling and numbness that I had in my right arm. (Symptoms that resulted from scar tissue from a long prior surgery.) Thanks David!
by Tina on Feb 06
Very pleasant, easy relaxed conversation with explanations as to what he was going to do and how it would help with my issue. Very friendly and professional.

David was so kind and incredibly thorough. I arrived in pain and left feeling so much relief. I can’t wait to go back!

My session with David was amazing and I will definitely return. He is very attentive. He reviewed all of the notes that I provided about my previous injury and we talked about how I was feeling throughout the session. I broke my ankle seven years ago and I have had 4 surgeries with this injury. The pain has changed over time and I've seen multiple therapists and doctors in the Pittsburgh area. When I sat up and looked at my ankle after my session with David it was half the size! The swelling reduced beyond what I ever expected to be possible. I feel more comfortable walking, standing and sleeping than I have in years.
