Work With Me
I integrate Japanese manual therapy, mobility training, and natural movement education to help resolve persistent tension and pain, improve mobility, and restore reliable movement.
​
You can work with me through hands-on treatment sessions or through individualized online mobility coaching. In-person sessions focus on direct therapeutic work, while online coaching provides personalized guidance, program design, and ongoing check-ins to help you make steady progress wherever you are.
In-Person Treatment Sessions
These sessions integrate Shiatsu therapy, Sotai natural movement, gentle assisted stretching, and simple corrective exercises into a single treatment focused on relieving pain, reducing tension, and restoring how your body supports and moves.
During a session, methods may include:
-
Targeted pressure work to release tension patterns and alleviate sore areas
-
Gentle corrective natural movements to reset habitual holding patterns
-
Assisted stretching and joint mobilization to restore range without forcing it
-
Minimal, practical self-care guidance to reinforce results between visits
Most people are seeking treatment for persistent stiffness, chronic tension, recurring pain, or movement limitations that have not fully resolved on their own, either due to an injury, surgery, or unknown reason. As my practice is an alternative to mainstream methods like massage and physiotherapy, I tend to see cases who have not responded to these conventional approaches.
Treatment can create meaningful change, but lasting results come from reinforcing those changes in daily life. You will most definitely receive one or two simple practices to support progress between sessions. I will also offer a few lifestyle suggestions if I feel they might be impactful to the improvement of your issue.
The overall aim is straightforward: relieve discomfort, restore natural alignment, and help your body regain reliable mobility for everyday life.

What People Say
Daiki Matsumaru
Alex is a great Shiatsu & Sotai therapist as well as a natural fitness expert with variety of interrelated skills and knowledge. I learned a lot about natural movement training from him. After injuring my neck in a bicycle accident, Alex's treatments helped regain range of motion and eased the pain and stiffness I was feeling.
Adrian Jean-Paul
It's easy to see that Alex has spent years perfecting this art and delivers the results of his study and experience in a practical and easy to use format with videos and explanations throughout. As a lifelong martial artist, I can not overstate the value of the Natural Mobility Ukemi Foundations course. It is inevitable that we all fall at some point, so it's just a matter of time until we will need the skills learned in this course.
Rose Anne M.
Alex is very knowledgeable, forthcoming, and articulate in the way he explains things, making it simple to understand how so many movements and principles are linked... I feel more aware of my body, not only while training, but more importantly in daily life. ”
