Why pain keeps coming back

Pain and stiffness don’t just slow you down—they change the way you live. When rest, YouTube exercises, and generic care haven’t worked, it’s time for something different.

Pain that keeps coming back

Temporary fixes fade fast. Without addressing the real driver—joint mechanics, soft tissue, and control—symptoms return.

Stiffness limits your day

Loss of mobility makes simple tasks hard and training risky. Ignoring it can cascade into compensations elsewhere.

One-size-fits-all care

Protocols help some people, not you. You need a plan built around your body, goals, and lifestyle.

Clayton has helped me more than I ever imagined with a pinched nerve in my neck and shoulder. The pain was unbearable for half of my life. I wasn't able to fully live and enjoy the things I loved to do. After just the first session I had more relief than I have ever had in all the years of doctor visits and hospital visits. I am back to do everything I was able to when I was a kid. Truly works wonders.

Maverick Manual Therapy is exactly what I needed, from my hip/back to shoulder/elbow. The issue is quickly identified and the work begins. I feel so much better every time I leave their office. Highly recommend!

I've worked with Clayton for a couple different issues. I had developed a few imbalances through years of lifting and being active. Clayton's approach to therapy was completely different than other PT I have tried. The whole session is one on one care which I never received at pt clinics I went to as they have multiple patients in at once. My pain is completely gone and I am so much stronger and know how to use my body more efficiently
