How it works
We don't chase pain. We rebuild people.
Three steps.
-
The Fit Chat Complimentary
First, we talk.
Tell me what's going on, what you've tried and what you want to get back to.
The Fit Chat is a short conversation to see whether I'm the right person to help. If I am, we move to the Root Cause Consult. If I'm not, I'll tell you.
Already working with another practitioner or coach? That's fine. This doesn't have to replace what's already working.

The Root Cause Consult
Before we build the plan, we understand the problem.
This is where we look at your whole story, not just where it hurts.
We look at what's happening, what you've tried and the factors that may be contributing.
Pain rarely tells the whole story. There may be one major factor or several things contributing. The goal is to determine what matters most, where to start and what should happen next.
The goal is clarity, not more things to do.

The Rebuild
Then we get to work.
We start with the problem that brought you here and address what matters most first.
From there, we build strength, capacity and confidence around what you need and where you want to go.
The strategy changes as you change. And when another professional needs to be part of the process, I bring the right expertise in.
More isn't always better. The right thing, at the right time, for the right person.
Built around you.
You don't need another generic program. You need to know what matters for you.
What you need may be simple. It may require more support. Either way, we start with what matters most and build from there.
You don't need to have everything figured out before you start. That's my job: to help make the path forward clear.
And if something falls outside what I should handle, I'll bring the right professional into the process.
How the work is delivered
In person and virtually
Brain & Body Engineering™ is available in person on the North Shore and virtually worldwide.
The setting may change. The approach doesn't: understand what's going on, determine what matters and build the strategy around the person.
Questions people actually ask
Is this only for physical pain?
No. Physical pain is a common reason people come to me, but it isn't the only one.
Stress, tension and the nervous system can affect how you feel and function, even when there isn't a specific injury or painful body part.
If you're dealing with something that's affecting how you feel or function and you're not sure whether Brain & Body Engineering™ is the right fit, start with a Fit Chat. We'll figure that out together.
Do I need to know exactly what's causing my pain?
No. That's part of what we're trying to understand.
Come with what you know: what you're feeling, what you've tried and what you want to change. We'll start there.
What if I've already tried PT, chiropractic, injections or other treatments?
That's common.
We'll look at what you've already tried, what helped, what didn't and what may still be missing. The goal isn't to repeat everything you've already done. It's to determine what makes sense next.
Can you work with my doctor, therapist, PT or other practitioner?
Yes.
Brain & Body Engineering™ doesn't have to replace good care that's already helping you. I can work alongside other professionals and bring additional expertise into the process when appropriate.
Do I have to stop what I'm already doing?
Not necessarily.
If something is working, there may be no reason to remove it. We'll look at what you're doing and determine what should stay, what should change and what may not be helping.
Do I have to work with you after the Root Cause Consult?
No.
The Root Cause Consult has value on its own. You'll leave with a clearer understanding of what matters and what I recommend next.
If ongoing work makes sense, I'll recommend it. If it doesn't, I'll tell you.
Do you work virtually?
Yes.
I work with people in person on the North Shore and virtually. Whether virtual work makes sense depends on what you need, and we can determine that during the Fit Chat.
Start with a conversation.
You don't need to know exactly what you need. That's what the conversation is for.
Tell me what's going on, what you've tried and where you want to go. We'll figure out whether Brain & Body Engineering™ is the right next step.
