You've done the rehab. You've seen the physio, the chiro, the massage therapist. Maybe more than one of each. It still doesn't feel right. Pain-free isn't the same as game ready.
Nearly everyone who comes to me has already been somewhere else. Physio, chiro, massage, injections, sometimes surgery. They've been given exercises for the painful area and told to rest, and the thing keeps coming back.
A hip that can't rotate will keep overloading the tissue below it, on that same side, for years. You can treat the hamstring all you want. Until someone finds the hip, nothing changes.
That's why it keeps coming back.
Pain matters. It just doesn't drive the bus.
Pain tells you something is wrong. Capacity tells you what to build: what your joints, tissue and strength can actually handle, and what your sport is going to ask of them.
It's the approach I teach with my colleagues at Absolute Sport Science, including to performance staff at the Pittsburgh Pirates. In an assessment, it's applied to one body: yours.

Apply for an assessmentTell me what's going on. I read every application myself and reply within a day. If I'm the right person for your case, you'll get a link to book and your intake forms.
Takes a few minutesHealth, treatment and training, and performance history. It's detailed on purpose — fill it in with your records in front of you rather than trying to recall dates on a call. I read all of it before we speak.
Before the sessionLive on video. Table tests and joint-by-joint analysis. I'll walk you through each one and tell you what I'm seeing as we go, so by the end you know what your joints and tissue are actually doing.
2 hours, on videoIn writing: where you are now (your Point A), where you need to be (your Point B), and your #1 limiter to high performance. If continuing together makes sense, we'll talk about it then. If it doesn't, you still leave with the answer.
End of the sessionWhether or not we work together afterwards, you walk away with something you didn't have.
Named and demonstrated, not guessed at. Including why the thing you've been treating hasn't resolved it.
What your joints and tissue need to be capable of for what you're asking of them — a specific target, not a vague goal.
A written Point A / Point B report you keep — so you can act on it, or hand it to your own coach or therapist.
This is limited intake and I'd rather keep the slots for people it will actually help. If you're in the right column, don't apply.
Two hours, online, anywhere in the world. Fill this in and tell me what's going on. I read every application myself and reply within a day.
Intake is limited. If there's no space right now, I'll tell you when there is.
If I read your application and don't think I'm the right person for your case, I'll tell you straight, before you spend a dollar.
I send pricing with your booking link once I've read your application. That way you only hear it if I'm the right person for your case.
Yes. Table tests and joint-by-joint analysis both work on camera — I'll direct you through each position and watch what your joints actually do. What I can't do remotely is hands-on treatment, so if your case needs that, I'll say so and help you find someone local.
No. This is assessment and programming. It doesn't replace diagnosis or treatment from your physician, and if you're in undiagnosed pain you should see them first. Where you already have a care team, I'd rather work alongside them than around them.
That depends on what we find. Some people leave with the answer and run the progression themselves or hand it to their own coach. For others it makes sense to keep working together, and we'll talk about what that looks like at the end of the session. There's no obligation either way.
Enough room to lie down and move, a camera that can see your whole body, and clothing you can move in. If you have imaging, surgical reports, or previous assessments, upload them with your intake forms once you're booked.
It usually makes the work better. With your say-so I'll speak with them directly, so what we find fits into what you're already doing instead of competing with it.
Move it up to 48 hours beforehand at no cost. Inside 48 hours the session is held, since the time was reserved and the intake already reviewed.
Every case starts the same way — with an assessment.
