How to wear high heel shoes and be confortable in your feet... Just because you love it or your job requires you to wear high heel shoes, you have a multitude of personal reasons that I would not dispute and yes they look nice. The shoes can be replaced not your feet. Like all things used excessively, consequences appear. The compression of the foot in the shoe reduces the vital function of the foot which is to maintain the body in balance. Some muscle groups are put to the test, and others are inactive and that in the whole body and not only in your feet. I help my clients to have a better body position by reintegrating the mechanical function of the foot's arches .This reduces tension, injury and promotes the desire to rediscover the joy of walking or running. Now that you know it, yes, being elegant and comfortable in your feet is possible.

    • I had the pleasure of working with Joachim for the past year and have to say the changes that have occured with the physical work that he does and the mental shift that has happened in me are significant to me. Being able to perceive the the change in body and mind are uplifting. If you are ready to see this happen Joachim is the person to work with.
    • Joachim was highly recommended to me but I was somewhat skeptical of Rolfing. I have a unique gait abnormality that has plaqued me for over 10 years. Several therapists, neurologists, and trainers have all been frustrated at its diagnosis and possible corrective actions. Joachim saw things others had not seen and was able to introduce simple but effective modifications to my walking. They have dramatically improved my situation. Joachim is insistent yet compassionate in his approach; he listened to what I said AND to what he saw and modified as appropriate. A good experience..
    • Joachim is amazing!!! He is a top notch specialist at what he does and knows exactly what he is doing. He carefully listens to all the pain you are experiencing and addresses those issues with high knowledge. I had a severe case, My right shoulder was noticeably lower than my left and was causing a lot of pain in my upper traps. After just a few sessions, my shoulders were leveled and the pain was gone! I have been to many chiropractors and physical therapists In the past and have just felt temporary pleasure and no real lasting results. If you are looking for someone to get down to the root of your problem and experience long lasting results, this is the place to go!
    • I went to Joachim after having weeks of low back/hip pain that was so constant, I could not sleep through the night. I’d done yin yoga, stretching, massage, and chiropractic and still the pain would not go away. After my first session with Joachim, my pain was reduced significantly-maybe 70%. After my second session, the pain was completely gone. In addition to the resolution of the pain, I also feel more at ease when moving, more in tune with my body and more peaceful after a session. I highly recommend him.
    • Life-changing bodywork for me. My body underwent physical and emotional trauma from multiple surgeries 5yrs ago and after my first session with Joachim, my body felt brand new. Stagnation has movement now and when I take a deep breath of air, it feels like I can breathe for the first time. It was a very emotional shift for me in the most positive way and I am forever grateful for his work. I look forward to my next session.
    • Joachim is amazing at what he does. He’s released a lot of my tension and alleviated my back pain. I often fall asleep with the lights on after a session with him because I am that relaxed. Highly recommended!
