History
I have enjoyed my career and I have been lucky to work in many settings; the University of Southern California, Ranch Los Amigos Med. Center ( Spinal Injury) and Western Physical Therapy. Secondary to the pandemic shutdowns, I felt it was best to close my business of 32 years. Fortunately, for the previous 3 years, I had been working out at Crossfit Modern in Long Beach. I had been studying the gymnastic motions and Olympic Weight lifts that are common during their workouts. Over time I began to answer the questions of the athletes and a relationship developed. The management at Crossfit Modern allowed me to use their space to treat individual patients. Once the Covid restrictions were relaxed I began to see patients on a regular schedule. Some of the patients I had helped at my prior practice. Other clients are word-of-mouth referrals from the area. I am now scheduling clients at Crossfit Modern. If you have any questions at all feel free to contact me. Best wishes, Jim
