J.W, Client, yoga teacher
I worked with Dr. Austin earlier this year for lower back pain I was experiencing. During our sessions, Dr. Austin would help me with exercises to help strengthen my core, glutes and lower back to help alleviate the back pain I was experiencing. He also incorporated massage and cupping to help release tension in my muscles. I felt and saw a lot of improvement after my sessions with Dr. Austin and I appreciate his help. I would highly recommend him as a PT!
A.W., yoga student/client
As an active yogi, I sought out Austin’s PT and body work because I wanted to improve my yoga postures and reduce pain in my lower back. Austin gave me a thorough and knowledgeable assessment based on his physical therapy experience and was able to recommend exercises to help my lower back. As a certified yoga instructor, he was able to offer helpful corrections in yoga poses to avoid excess strain on my body and skillfully demonstrated asanas that I perform regularly for visual feedback. From my 1-hour session with Austin, I was able to take away many improvements to my daily yoga practice. I have improved my postures and gained strengthening in muscles that I wasn’t using. Austin was very professional and answered all my questions. He also followed up twice, to provide written exercises and confirm that I was able to follow his recommendations. I would recommend him for anyone who practices regularly and wants to improve their yoga technique and postures.

professional surfer, 1st place US Surfing Championship/Masters Division
Dr. Shutler helped me out tremendously when I had a pulled muscle in my upper thigh. He was very professional and taught me a lot of beneficial exercises to help me heal and return to sport quicker. With Austin's experience of surfing and his rehabilitation knowledge, he was able to reduce my injury, enhance my surfing with stretches, and get me back in the water. I give him 5 stars and highly recommend his skills to return to sport.
