Local Health Mentors

I specialize in strength and conditioning. Whether in personal training or group settings, I help people to realize their potential. I believe that making lifestyle changes (like addressing your nutrition and exercise) while not replacing your doctor, limits your need for one and is critical for your longevity. I am here to help you take charge of your health and put you back in the driver seat.

In 2003, I graduated with a Masters degree from Ohio University School of Physical Therapy. Since that time I have worked with a wide variety of clients and continued to build my knowledge and skills in treatment options for those with sports and occupational injuries and orthopedic and neurological impairments. My eclectic approach to physical therapy takes into consideration that we are all multi-system, complex beings that need a truly customized plan of care in order to reach our full potential.

Some things I love: Learning new things and meeting new people, dogs, Crossfit, and naps.

When I’m not treating my patients, you can find me trying to raise two boys into kind and respectful men.

Some of my favorite activities are sitting on the couch with my husband (doesn’t happen much), hanging with friends and fam, and taking my dogs for a walk and enjoying nature.

MY PROMISE

I commit completely to designing the comprehensive therapy plan that you need to reach your goals, whether that be setting a PR for an Olympic lift or being able to walk to your mailbox without pain, improving your mile pace or muting the ache that won’t let you sleep at night. I will use my extensive and eclectic experience to find a solution to your problems.  I strive for honest customer service, with on-going, open communication in order to provide you with the best care possible; and if that care is beyond my skill set, I will refer you on to the right person.

When Crystal began her yoga practice, it became clear this style of physicality aligned with her personal goals. It was the only practice which made her feel better physically and mentally. With a background in gymnastics and dance, the physical aspect of yoga felt natural and intuitive. Since then, yoga has become her sole focus because it strengthens her on numerous levels. As a seasoned personal trainer and group fitness instructor, her experience in the yoga community has been focused on developing and maintaining high standards in teaching techniques. This quickly led to developing and executing yoga teacher training programs. She is dedicated to raising the vibrations of health and happiness through yoga because it has brought equilibrium and harmony in her life.

By inspiring the public to embrace yoga along with mindfulness, Crystal truly believes she can create an upward spiral of positive energy in people's lives.

Andrew's experience of yoga began when seeking to balance the intensity and competitiveness of martial arts training. He soon discovered that yoga was much more than he anticipated. Like many others, he began by seeking the physical benefits of the practice and soon found benefiting in other capacities of his life.

Andrew decided to dedicate his time and energy sharing yoga with others because the practices and philosophies in yoga inspired him to pursue more depth in self exploration, discipline, and new physical pathways. Andrew's energetic, fluid, and transparent style of teaching brings you to know yoga as it was intended: a practice to become reacquainted with your capacities, potential, and depth.
