Last night around 9:45, my dog dislocated her jaw while chewing on a hard bone. She is a pitty w/a very strong bite. She was in pain and her jaw wouldn’t function correctly. I called 3 different 24hr pet hospitals that had wait times of 3-8 hrs. In looking for an alternate solution, I remembered the work Joachim had done on me in the past & that he had worked on horses & other animals too. I called him at 10:00 to see if he’d be willing to help us. He came right over and worked on our dog’s jaw, with noticeable improvement. Today, we drove the dog to his office for a follow-up. After the 2nd session, the dog’s jaw is completely normal. I am amazed at the work he did and the vet trauma my dog (& I) avoided.
Joachim is truly amazing!!! With all my heart I would highly recommend him to athletes, musicians, hikers, any body who has repetition in their life, but especially for anyone with Scoliosis. He has taught me how to walk in my own body and open up the twisting that takes place from my curved S shaped spine. The first time I met Joachim, he spent a lot of time watching the way I stood, walked and sat. He was very attentive to what I had to say. I am of 64 years and have had my spine fused for 43 years due to Scoliosis. I am very active as I love to ski, hike mountains and ride my road bike. Last year I had a ski accident that resulted in many torn ligament (Meniscus, MCL, ACL), fractured Tibia and dislocated Fibula. I spent many months in Physical Therapy which was exactly where I needed to be but at the end of PT I still wasn’t able to walk normal and my lower back became very sore. I’ve seen orthopedics, chiropractors and physical therapist . They all had their benefits but nothing lasted for long until I met Joachim, an advance certified Rolfer who has also studied Scoliosis in his practice. I just finished my 10 sessions and there is so much improvement in my whole body and daily life. Thank you Joachim for what you do!!! Again, truly amazing.
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.
