Chris graduated with a Master’s Degree in Physical Therapy (MSPT) from New York Institute of Technology in 2000 and has been an avid learner of the healing arts ever since.  He is skilled in the use of manual therapy and knowledgeable of herbal medicine/nutrition.  Chris immersed himself in a 4-year program to develop proficiency in energy medicine and graduated from the Barbara Brennan School of Healing in 2009 (BHSP).  He is especially fond of Osteopathy due to its Holistic philosophy in diagnosing and treating the body and he is board certified (JSCC) in an Osteopathic technique called Strain Counterstrain since 2012.  He takes pride in learning and honing his craft so that he can better help people suffering with a wide variety of complaints.  He is currently enrolled in a Fascial Counterstrain internship program with one of the leaders in the field Timothy Hodges LMP, JSCCI here in Portland.  In his free time Chris enjoys making herbal remedies, traveling, reading, cooking, spending time with his wife Crystal, and exploring nature.
