You deserve better than quick fixes that don't address what's really causing your pain.
You're bounced between different therapists at crowded clinics where no one takes time to understand your goals or what activities matter most to you.
Temporary relief that doesn't last because the root cause of your back pain is never identified or properly treated, leaving you frustrated and stuck.
Generic exercises that aren't tailored to your sport, fitness routine, or the active lifestyle you're fighting to get back to.
We don't just treat your back pain—we solve the underlying problem so you can return to peak performance and stay there.

"I've been seeing Dr Andrew for almost a year now and he's been a great help in getting me back to running. Having that one on one experience is very helpful and makes me feel like he truly cares about my physical health. He takes his time in making sure he's assessing you correctly and getting down to the root of your pain/discomfort."

I compete frequently and don't want miss a training session due to pain. He's exceptional at pinpointing the problem and helping relieve pain every visit."

We work with most insurance plans. Contact our office at (210) 890-2411 and our team will verify your coverage and explain your benefits. We also offer a 50% discount on initial evaluations.
4. What should I bring to my first visit?
Bring comfortable athletic clothing that allows you to move freely. If you have any imaging results (X-rays, MRIs) or previous medical records related to your back pain, bring those as well. Most importantly, come prepared to discuss your goals and what activities you want to get back to.
5. What is dry needling and will it help my back pain?
Dry needling uses thin needles inserted into precise trigger points in muscles to alleviate pain and enhance functionality. It activates your body's natural healing mechanisms, facilitating tension release and improving blood circulation. Many of our back pain patients experience significant relief with this technique combined with our other manual therapy approaches.
6. Can you help with chronic back pain I've had for months or years?
Absolutely. We specialize in identifying and correcting the underlying movement patterns and biomechanical issues that cause chronic back pain. By addressing the root cause—not just symptoms—we help patients who've struggled with recurring pain finally achieve lasting relief and return to the activities they love.
