"I went from barely managing pain to surprising myself in the CrossFit Open—all thanks to Mitch. His approach isn’t just about recovery; it’s about coming back stronger, moving better, and understanding your body in a whole new way."
"I’ve always been active, training CrossFit 5-6 days a week, so when I strained my lower back doing a thruster in July, I figured I’d just take it easy and let it heal. But instead of getting better, it got worse. The pain became extreme, and I knew I needed help—fast.
Enter Mitch. From the start, his approach was different. I didn’t just get relief; I got a plan. He immediately helped me mobilize correctly, fix my movement patterns, and adjust my lifts so I could recover while building back stronger. His communication was clear and efficient, and I always knew exactly what to do next. He laid out a path that wasn’t just about healing this injury—it was about moving forward with a better, smarter approach to my body and training.
I didn’t expect to get back to full strength so quickly, let alone perform at my previous level. But here I am, surprising myself. I recently competed in the CrossFit Open, thinking I had no chance of keeping up with last year’s numbers, but in the first workout, I landed in the 83rd percentile for my age group—while in the middle of a month-long asthma episode! My body feels about 98%, but the real shock was realizing I had gotten even stronger, and my cardio hadn’t suffered much at all. I can confidently say I’m now training with a better foundation than before my injury.
Mitch is the real deal—personable, scientific, professional, and deeply knowledgeable. He doesn’t just treat injuries; he teaches the habits and techniques that lead to real, lasting improvement. If you want to recover, perform, and move better for the long haul, I can’t recommend him enough."
