Massage helps for a few days. Stretching feels good in the moment. Strengthening makes you tolerate it longer. But the tightness always comes back.
That's because your muscles aren't the problem. They're actually protecting you from something...
Which hand moved more?
TOP HAND: You're chest breathing. Your muscles are doing the job your pressure system should be doing automatically. That's why they're always tight.
BOTTOM HAND: You're breathing correctly. Your issue is likely something else.
I can show you exactly what's happening — and fix it — in your first visit.

If your low back tightens up at your desk. If your neck gets stiff after a few hours. If your shoulders creep toward your ears. If you wake up feeling like you slept wrong.
If you've tried massage - it helps for a few days, then the tightness rebuilds. If you've stretched religiously - feels good in the moment, muscles tighten right back up. If you've done the exercises your PT gave you - got stronger, still tight.
If you're starting to wonder if this is just your life now. If you're supposed to accept that your body doesn't move like it used to.
...I might be able to help.
Here's what happens if nothing changes: The tightness gets managed but never resolved. The compensation patterns deepen. Eventually something gives - a disc, a joint, a surgeon's recommendation you hoped you'd never hear.
Massage, stretching, and strengthening all treat the tight muscles while leaving the broken pressure system in place. That's why relief never lasts.
I'm David Quenzer, Doctor of Physical Therapy. After my collegiate track career ended, I had six years of chronic back pain. Three surgeons recommended spinal fusion. I tried everything traditional PT offered - nothing lasted. Then I discovered my core pressure system had gone offline. Once I restored it, everything resolved. No surgery. No ongoing treatment. Now that's all I do.
Pain-free Movement Without Hesitation.
No more bracing your core consciously. No more stretching to manage tightness. No more exercises hoping this time they'll stick. When your pressure system works, your body functions the way it's designed to.
You'll feel the difference immediately. Not because I tell you something changed. Because you'll move and feel your body working differently.
Step 1: Schedule your first visit. No commitment beyond showing up.
Step 2: Feel your pressure system restore. You'll know immediately if something changed.
Step 3: Move without hesitation. When the foundation is back, everything built on it works again.
You pay $200 only if you felt it work. If you didn't feel anything different, you don't pay. That removes all the risk from finding out if this is your answer.
I listen to your breathing to identify where your pressure system is leaking. You'll hear what I hear. Then I restore the function that creates pressure.
You'll move and feel the difference immediately. Then you pay $200 only if you felt it work. If you didn't feel the change, you don't pay.
Traditional PT strengthened muscles that were compensating for your broken pressure system. Stronger compensating muscles help you tolerate the problem longer, but they don't fix the system.
I fix the system itself. Once it's online, your muscles stop compensating and your tightness goes away permanently.
Because you've been disappointed before. You've tried things that promised results and didn't deliver.
When I restore your pressure system, you'll feel the difference immediately. The only way you pay is if you felt it work. That removes all risk from finding out if this is your answer.
It's $200 each visit thereafter.
But that decision comes after you feel it work. First you need to know if your pressure system can be restored. The first session answers that question.
Only then can we work together to solve your back, knee, shoulder, or other issues. Core pressure must be the foundation for all of these to return to pain-free. Without the foundation, nothing else holds.
