OUR GOAL IS TO KEEP YOU PAIN FREE!
Read on to learn more about Courtney and Tom.

Courtney
Posture Therapist
I began college and my lifestyle changed: I sat a lot more and moved a lot less.
Before I knew it, I had low back, foot and right shoulder pain. I was pretty scared and confused as I led what I thought was a “healthy” lifestyle.
My dad informed me my pain had to do with my alignment (i.e., my posture). Being his daughter, I naturally ignored him until it got to the point where the pain began to affect my happiness and wellbeing. Finally, I started doing the customized exercises that he prescribed for me.
And the pain lessened…
And then the pain went away completely…
I thought, well it worked for me, but will it work for other people? So I began to job shadow my dad and one other amazing Posture Therapist just to make sure.
Over and over again I saw the therapy process work it’s magic. I was sold.
I finished my degree at Gonzaga University where I studied Spanish and French. Then I immediately enrolled in Egoscue University® to study Posture Therapy. There, I completed my Posture Analysis Specialist (PAS) I and II certifications .
After, I worked as a Posture Therapist at Egoscue Headquarters in San Diego, CA where learned from Pete Egoscue and the other incredible therapist there. My husband and I lived in beautiful Northern California and Boston for the next several years after that where I continued to work with clients.
Now I’m living in Seattle, still loving my work as a Posture Therapist and enjoying being back in Washington. When I’m not seeing clients in-person or online you will most likely find me hiking, rock climbing or snowboarding. I also love to bake, study languages and travel: exploring the world and it’s different cultures.
Pain free is definitely the way I prefer to live my life and so I’m excited to have this opportunity to work with you and help start you on your journey to becoming pain free as well.

Tom
Posture Therapist
For the last 37 years I’ve had the pleasure of working with all ages of people from 6 to 98 in the fitness field; sometimes 3 different generations at a time.
For the past 35 years I’ve had the opportunity to work with and observe changes in people of all different abilities and disabilities in my Water Therapy classes. This has been both with large groups and one-on-one therapy. During that time, I was asked to design a large therapy pool that was built in my local YMCA.
I was introduced to Posture Therapy by a friend of mine. He was a football quarterback in college where he received a couple of injuries, and he had been in pain since. On a scale of zero to ten (zero being no pain, ten being the worst pain of his life), his pain never dropped below a nine. I had tried to get him to join me in the pool for about 20 years with no success, but one day I saw him the weight room and he seemed different. I asked what he had been up to. It turns out he had read Pain Free, by Pete Egoscue, and then went and had two Posture Therapy sessions. His pain had dropped down to a two or three!
I read the book; it made complete sense to me. In fact, I thought, “Why isn’t this common knowledge?” So, I went down to Egoscue University® in 2006 and completed the Posture Analysis Specialists I and II certifications so I could begin offering Posture Therapy to my clients as well. I’ll share more about how I started out as a client myself with sciatica if you’d like to know more, but it’s been 15 years since I began doing Posture Therapy, I have had no repeat symptoms, and my body actually feels better than it has in 30 years.
During the last 9 years my focus has been on helping people get out of pain and improve their balance and range of motion through Posture Therapy.
I am currently completing my AET (Advanced Exercise Therapist) certification with Egoscue University®.
My goal is for my clients to enjoy living in their homes and going about all their favorite activities pain free for the rest of their lives.
