If you've worked with physical therapy, massage, and injections and the pain keeps coming back, the pain itself isn't the problem. It's the pattern underneath it. Garrett finds where your pattern breaks down and teaches you how to change it.
Book a $29 AssessmentSomewhere along the way, one part of your body took on work that used to belong to another part. Your body adapted, and the adaptation is what's hurting now.
Physical therapy, massage, injections. They all work. They bring relief that lasts hours, days, sometimes weeks. Then the pain returns. That's not the treatment failing. It's a sign the treatment reached the symptom and not what's underneath it.
Pain that comes back to the same place again and again is your body telling you something is consistently overworking while something else has gone quiet. Until that pattern changes, the pain has a reason to come back.
Once Garrett identifies what's overworking and what's gone quiet, and brings your body back into a working pattern, the area in pain stops being asked to do all the work. Most practice members feel a difference in their first session.
Your body isn't broken, it adapted to a load. Once that load moves off the one part doing all the work, the pain stops being needed.
Full assessment, guided protocols, and a take-home practice. About 60 minutes, in San Francisco or over video.
Garrett assesses how your whole body moves, not just the part that hurts. Where it's overworking, where it's gone quiet, and how those two things connect.
Using a yoga block or gymnastic rings, Garrett guides you through positions matched to your specific pattern. You're moving, not lying on a table.
Most practice members feel a change in how their body is holding itself before the session ends, in the area that hurts and often somewhere they didn't expect.
You leave with a short practice, about five minutes, that keeps your pattern moving in the right direction between sessions.
Virtual sessions work well for chronic pain. The work is in finding what's loading you up, not hands-on tissue work, so Garrett can guide you through it over video.

Yes, especially if physical therapy, massage, and injections haven't ended it. Chronic pain that returns despite treatment usually means the treatment is addressing the symptom, not the pattern underneath it. Many of Garrett's practice members had been managing pain for 10, 15, or 20 years before the pattern was finally addressed.
Lower back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, knee pain, sciatica, TMJ, plantar fasciitis, and most chronic conditions where the body has been carrying an uneven load for a long time. The mechanism is the same across all of them: find what's overworking, find what's gone quiet, and change the pattern.
Many chronic injuries are an old pattern plus an event. The injury is real, but the pain often persists because the pattern that made that area vulnerable is still there. Garrett works on the pattern. The injury heals on your body's own timeline once the load is changed.
The Amari Method doesn't replace medication directly. Most practice members find their need for it reduces over time as the underlying pattern changes. Decisions about medication stay between you and your physician. Garrett's job is to change why your body is producing pain in the first place.
Most physical therapy strengthens what's weak and stretches what's tight. Garrett works upstream first, finding which structures should be doing work but aren't, and bringing them back online before adding strength. The movements can look similar. The sequence and the reasoning behind them are different. Practice Members who tried PT before often describe this work as more efficient and the change as more lasting.
