Ben has been utilizing Counterstrain since 2013, and it was in that first year that he became a full convert to this powerful treatment approach. After being a victim of a car accident, leaving him with both a concussion and musculoskeletal pain, Counterstrain proved itself to be singularly effective in recovery.

The interplay of energy and matter in the human body is paradoxically extremely complex and also organized in such a way as to be simple and efficient.
We believe that taking into consideration the complex nerve, vessel and cellular mechanics is as important as understanding and optimizing the energy, focus and connectivity of the body, mind and spirit.
The foundation of our method is Strain-Counterstrain, a multi-system approach to rehabilitating the body by unloading the tension around areas of restriction and injury. By combining this gentle precision manual therapy with the effective traditions of treating the flow of energy or spirit, we create the necessary bio-magnetic signals that nurture health and function in the body. For some people there is a physical disruption that doesn’t allow for this electromagnetic cellular communication to take place and for others the physical is fine but the flow is blocked. Our philosophy is to tend to both.
I am a Pediatric Occupational Therapist. I have made home visits through the Minneapolis Public Schools to infant, toddlers with special needs and their families. I have worked with Ben for about 10 years for right knee problems, minor lower back pain and neck pain. Through his incredible use of whole body work approach; I have had relief from pain.
I have had acupuncture, myofascial release and physical therapy to address these issues but none have helped my whole body like Ben's approach. After 30 years of sitting on the floor during home visits, I finally needed to have both knees replaced. After both surgeries were done in 2018, I needed Ben's expertise in 2019 as I relearned how to walk again without limping. I started to have pain in my lower back, neck and IT joint as I adjusted to my new gait. Ben again gave me whole body relief. I have and will continue to recommend him to family and friends. I am forever grateful to you, Ben, for what you do!
Ben was recommended to me by a friend. I am a retired transplant who came to Minnesota and needed to find practitioners who could provide care like I had received in my former home state. I am still seeing Ben four years later. He is a gifted practitioner who is diligent about providing the most up-to-date methods for helping me to handle the unpredictability of an aging body. At 76 years old, I have learned that good body maintenance like a good exercise program is essential to my well being. Ben has become an important part of my wellness team.
