THE PROCESS

If you are in pain, there is a strong chance it is due to an imbalance. When our bodies have an imbalance, it tries to compensate for it, often making matters even worse. Muscles get tight, and joints get achy

The next step is to use myofascial release to hydrate muscles. By hydrating the tissues, they become primed to lengthen and contract properly and not be so stiff.

After finding more balance with your body, we then need to make it stick. We do this by making sure the correct muscles fire in the right sequence.

The final stage is to create strength and move better. When you dial in the FP principles, you not only eliminate pain, but keep it away for good.

WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL PATTERNS?

Whether you are in acute pain or a high level athlete looking to improve performance, FP is for EVERYBODY of any age and condition.

Learn to Live & Train Pain Free

The human body yearns for structural integrity, and it starts with posture.
A balanced or imbalanced relationship between our soft tissue (think muscle, fascia, tendons) and our skeleton dictates how well we sit, stand and move, which in turn correlates to whether or not we endure pain and movement restriction.
This concept, in context of the body being viewed as one integrated unit of soft tissue and bones, is represented by an increasingly trending word, “tensegrity.”  It is a derivative of “tension” and “integrity,” and must be given full attention by all fitness and health professionals who want to produce natural, lasting results in their clients.

Learn how to function and train properly based on how humans stand, walk, run, and throw.

HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS

Hear from the people who tried other methods and solutions before finding us.

This is not your average personal training.. this will change the way you move, fundamentally. Traditional body building workouts, surgeries, and injuries created wacky compensatory patterns in my body, and I was in a lot of pain. Then I found Alex! After consistent training I started feeling better and better. My pain reduced drastically, my posture improved significantly, and moving about my day to day life became much smoother. Alex’s attention to detail is unlike any trainer I’ve ever worked with- he is so dedicated to making sure you’re moving correctly, so that your body is learning the new (and correct) way of being. This is truly a game changer. Highly recommend Alex and functional patterns!

M. Pearrow

I have been to countless physical therapists and tried a dozen different wholistic things to get my body back in balance, stemming from a cam impingement in my hip. But working with Alex was the solution I was looking for all along. I learned more about the way the human body works and how to fix issues than I’ve ever learned from anyone else or any doctor. This place is a must if you want to take physical therapy and physical training to a whole different level. Working with them is worth every penny and after 6 months into it, I felt better than I felt in years, and more knowledgeable on healthy movements and training than ever. A truly priceless experience. Very grateful I found it!
