Pain and Performance Solutions utilizes advanced techniques in muscle therapy, such as ART®, NKT™,  SFMA™, P-DTR® and AiM to treat a variety of different muscle and joint issues.

My background as an engineer gave me a foundation for understanding the principle of “root cause analysis” in a problem. I utilize several methodologies in addressing movement issues within the body. Each of these disciplines have unique elements that are very effective, especially when applied in concert.

These systems of addressing functional movement are also in use by professionals whose entire career are dependent upon their body functioning at optimal levels. I bring these systems along with my training as an engineer to my clients everyday to help them resolve their issues in their body’s structural system.

You can read more about each of these techniques below.

Active Release Technique®

Based on a recommendation from a friend, I called Julian. I did not have knowledge of or experience with Active Release Techniques or Neurokinetic Therapy. However, I was in excruciating pain and desperate for relief. I now refer to Julian as “a miracle worker”. After just three visits, I was walking four miles, back at the gym and sleeping through the night. I am excited about my progress & look forward to running again.

Anatomy in Motion

Anatomy in Motion, or AiM for short – is a complete road map to the structure of the human body, with no stone unturned. AiM philosophy is founded on principles of movement that are influenced by our most primal, repetitive, and fundamental movement: walking (or gait). While many techniques (like the SFMA) are excellent at assessing the larger areas of our body (hip, pelvis, knee, thorax, head) few offer the insight into the foot that AiM provides. Why is knowledge of the foot so critically important? Let’s explore that thought… Learn More

NeuroKinetic Therapy™

To use a crude, but effective analogy:

If combating muscular dysfunction were compared to waging war – ART® could be thought of as a bomb, devastatingly powerful when it hits the target. NKT™ upgrades those bomb’s to have laser-guided precision.

ART® alone is incredibly powerful at relieving excess tension – I know from experience as a patient and as a practitioner myself. However, knowing what we know about how dysfunctional patterns occur – sometimes releasing a muscle with tension isn’t good enough…it just comes back later. NKT™ allows the ART®  to be applied more effectively and eliminate a pattern entirely. Learn More

Proprioceptive – Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR®)

Proprioceptive – Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR®) is a product of the original thought and investigations of orthopedic surgeon Dr. José Palomar.

This work recognizes that proprioception (sensation of touch, pressure, hot, cold, pain, etc.), and the way the body processes the information from these receptors, is paramount in determining neuromuscular responses throughout the entire body. Motor function is not just determined by the motor system, but rather is modified by the inputs of these receptors.

Using a comprehensive system of muscle testing and neural challenges, involved receptors can be located and normal function can be quickly restored. Most physical therapy and other therapeutic modalities deal with the “hardware” of the body, neglecting the fact that much of the pain and dysfunction we experience is often actually a problem with our “software”. Learn More

The Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA™)

The Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA™) is a series of 7 full-body movement tests. These tests are relatively simple to execute, but they lay the groundwork for a series of more complex tests that gradually provide a complete roadmap for treatment.

Treat pain last – fix movement first

For the longest time treatment has focused mainly on the site of pain, however the cause of pain is often a completely different location. This phenomenon is known as regional interdependence – one area of the body affecting the function and muscular recruitment of another area of the body. Learn More

I went to Julian, on the recommendation of my physician, to deal with a difficult, chronic problem. I felt some relief immediately, and have continued working with him resulting in a steady decrease in pain, increased range of motion, and a significant increase in activity endurance. I am very grateful for his kind, professional care, and can recommend him enthusiastically to anyone suffering from body dysfunction and/or pain.

Julian accelerated my healing process for a severe ankle inversion sprain. Three weeks after I’d injured my ankle, it was still swollen, bruised, and painful to walk or run on. After a short session, Julian made corrections that immediately reduced much of the pain. We went over an assortment of exercises to restore lost range of motion and he showed me how to tightly wrap the ankle with cut section of a bike tube to reduce the swelling. The adjustment and exercises set me on a quick course to full recovery. Thanks JC!

Julian is incredibly focused, intelligent and professional. If anyone can help you realign your body, he can. I recommend him without reservation.

I was getting shooting pain from my ribs towards my back, I couldn’t sleep on that side of my body and had to take ibuprofen every night. In one session Julian determined the problem to be a stuck nerve, got the nerve moving again, and now I’m sleeping through the night with no medications. Julian is 100% committed to understanding how bodies work, and how problems arise, so that the ROOT CAUSE can be fixed.
