Justin integrates modern movement science with breathing and postural regulation approaches, including:
Postural Restoration Institute (PRI)
Functional Range Conditioning (FRC)
Functional Movement Screen (FMS / SFMA)

This supports efficient movement, injury prevention, and long-term resilience.
Neurology & Nervous System Training
Justin has undertaken advanced study in how the brain and nervous system influence pain, posture, and movement, including:
Z-Health Functional Neurology
Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex
These methods support clients with persistent pain, headaches, dizziness, sensitivity, and coordination challenges.

These techniques are used thoughtfully as part of broader rehabilitation plans—not as isolated treatments.
Meet Kathryn
Patient Experience & Operations
Kathryn leads client experience, communications, and operations at Nerve Ninja, ensuring every interaction is clear, responsive, and well supported.
Her role is also shaped by lived experience. After navigating complex neurological symptoms and inconsistent care herself, Kathryn understands how confusing and frustrating the health system can be. Working with Justin changed her expectations of what great care looks like. Today, she applies that perspective to ensure clients feel informed and supported in their recovery.
