Self-Healing & Injury Prevention
Prioritize Mobility, Joint Stability,
Balance, & Resilience in Your Body
Welcome to Natural Mobility—empowering your well-being through a transformative approach that integrates movement therapy, injury prevention, and natural fitness.
Are you starting to realize that our culture of sedentarism and misguided attempts to compensate with overly strenuous training is only making your body more fragile?
Are you feeling yourself begin to grow beyond the ego-based motivations of training focused on "burning fat" or "building muscle" to look a certain way?
Is your inner wisdom starting to tell you that fitness is not about training to exhaustion, or making yourself feel sore? Is health, wellness and fitness really about forcing yourself through suffering and pain? Is that really healthy? Sustainable? Natural? I think not. You may have your reasons for training in a way that stresses your body, and I can respect that, but what are you doing to counter-balance the stress it imposes on your body?
Liberate yourself from pain, enhance functional strength, and unlock your innate movement potential for a life of vitality. Discover what it means to develop vibrant health and physical capability that carries you gracefully through life and helps best prevent injuries and illness through Natural Mobility treatment and training.

One-on-One Natural Mobility Sessions
As a Movement Therapist and Mobility Guide, Alex provides a service that combines Shiatsu & Sotai Therapy along with guidance and programing for Personal Mobility Training. Shiatsu & Sotai therapy involves hands-on treatment sessions with Alex Schenker, a licensed therapist with over 20 years experience.
Sessions also include guidance and creation of a mobility training program that is customized for your specific needs, serving the purpose of supporting the your treatment goals and restoring balance, alignment, and natural range of motion.
Without at least a minimum mobility training routine, any treatment is little more than symptom management, especially when it comes to chronic conditions. Throughout ongoing sessions, your condition is ever-changing and without continuous adjustment of your program, progress is limited.
These sessions involve assessment, treatment, and training in every session, with a concise routine for you to practice on your own. Ideally these sessions are received in-person, but it is also possible to do these sessions online over Zoom by instructing and observing your movement and providing instruction and coaching for self-treatment.
