Stories about changes in pain, movement, and body awareness. Some accounts are condensed for clarity.
Garrett Hewstan built the Amari Method after 25 years of hands-on practice. Nobody is doing the work to you. You're shown where your body is out of balance, and how to correct it yourself.

After a match at the KPSF Open, I woke up with lower back pain around a five out of ten. After a 10 to 15 minute session with Garrett, it was down to about a one. I would recommend his approach.

“I thought the best I could hope for was less pain. I've never felt this at home in my body.”

“One visit with Garrett gave me better results than three months of physical therapy.”

“I’m noticing many new sensations. It’s like making new friends with my own body.”

“My shoulder was just the weakest link. Huge a-ha moment.”

Working with Garrett has helped me get creative with movement and notice habits that weren't serving me. I feel more ease in my body, and daily movement flows more naturally.

“My hips and core feel so much more engaged with Dr. Garrett’s help.”

I came in with hip and leg pain. After my first session, I walked out pain free, more balanced, and with a better understanding of my body. Now I know how to keep working on it myself.

“He's guiding me to find my own balance in order to relieve the unnecessary, painful tension that's lived in my body for so many years.”

“My posture is better. I feel lighter on my feet. I feel more engaged and balanced in my body.”

“I came in for back pain. I didn't expect to sleep better and stop grinding my teeth too. At 24, I didn't think I needed this kind of care.”

My hip flexors had been tight for a long time. After just one session, I felt an immediate sense of looseness. He also showed me movements I could do at home to help with stability.
Your $29 Amari Assessment is a 50-minute, in-person session in San Francisco, and most practice members feel a difference before they leave. If you don't, we keep working with you until you do.
