    • Optimizing biomechanicsWhether it is a frail elder or a professional athlete, therapy that optimizes movement mechanics gives the greatest benefits. Immediate improvements are possible with every session. This allows the elderly to regain capabilities they thought were no longer possible, athletes to gain competitive edges, and everyone in between to gain the physical capabilities to live their lives to the fullest.

    • Injury prevention Dizziness and vertigo Functionality/mobility limitations Musculoskeletal disorders Neurological disorders Fall risk/imbalance
    • Neuromuscular re-education: Muscles moving inefficiently and or incorrectly is often a major contributing factor to pain and problems. Neuromuscular re-education allows reversing of these deficits.
    • Strapping: Joint and muscle support similar to manual facilitation allows for improved mechanics even after leaving the clinic. Correcting faulty movement mechanics is a complex process, but strapping accelerates this road to improvement.

Experience:

Kai was first introduced to and fell in love with physical therapy through volunteering experiences where with exposure to the fruitful interactions of helping people improve how they feel and move. This motivation was fine-tuned through schooling for his doctorate at the USC Division of Biokinesiology and Physical Therapy, in conjunction with advice from many mentors in the field along the way. Assisting people eliminating their pain while improving their functional capabilities has developed into a career that will be enjoyable for the rest of his life.
