About Carl Alexander, CMT:
As a lifelong athlete and health-conscious individual, I've spent years studying exercise, nutrition, and various forms of massage and bodywork.
Early on, my passion grew as I saw the connection between my own health practices and my performance in the sports I played. I graduated with a degree in Nutritional Sciences and have worked as a personal fitness trainer for over 15 years while continuing to develop my skills in addressing pain and the obstacles to maximum health and physical performance. I founded San Francisco Integrative Massage with the mission of providing a comprehensive approach to wellness, healing, and physical achievement. My approach addresses the root causes of pain and dysfunction by incorporating therapeutic massage, manual and neurological pain relief techniques, and fitness training. P-DTR® is central to my practice and provides a systematic assessment of clients' nervous system and a method for treating it neurologically.
I specialize in both in fitness coaching and massage & pain relief techniques to get clients out of the injury cycle and back to their best self quickly.
Active Release Techniques (ART) is a patented, state of the art soft tissue technique addressing problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.
Proprioceptive Deep Tendon Reflex (P-DTR) is the most cutting edge neuromuscular technique on this planet. P-DTR works with the receptor system of the body, which eliminates pain and gives functionality and strength back to clients quickly and safely.
Sports Massage - As an Ironman ART provider, I've worked with top athletes to weekend warrior to moms and dads that just want to keep up with their kids.
Whether you have back pain, neck pain, rotator cuff injury, hamstring injuries, repetitive strain injuries, tennis elbow or sciatica, every athlete and every "body" needs intervention to help them get back on track. I've worked with each one of these injuries and have the skill and knowledge to get you back on your program or just back to life quickly.
