Real Results from Real Clients

200+ clients have found lasting relief through the Amari Method

"Six months ago, my back pain was so bad I couldn't get out of bed without help. One session changed everything. Now I'm pain-free and my family finally has their mom back."

Sarah

Lower Back Pain Relief

"My doctor said I needed surgery for a herniated disc. I was terrified. I found Dr. Garrett and honestly thought it was too good to be true. Three sessions. The pain's gone. I'm back at my desk full-time and not thinking about surgery anymore."

Justin

Avoided Back Surgery

"Twenty years of teaching left me with constant neck and shoulder pain. I thought maybe I needed a new career. Turns out I just needed to stop craning my neck at the board all day. Dr. Garrett showed me what I was doing wrong. Simple fix. Huge difference."

Maria

Teacher Pain Relief

"My hip hurt so bad I couldn't even play with my dog. Hiking and yoga were completely off the table. I tried everything. Dr. Garrett was different—he actually listened and figured out what was wrong. Three weeks later I'm running trails again."

Amy

Hip Pain Freedom

"I've been lifting for years, but my form was all wrong. Shoulder and neck pain got so bad I thought I'd have to quit. Dr. Garrett watched me lift and showed me exactly what I was doing wrong. Fixed it in one session. Back in the gym, zero pain."

Dan

Weightlifter Recovery

"Construction work wrecked my back. My doctor told me to 'take it easy' and gave me pills. I don't want pills—I want to camp with my grandkids. Dr. Garrett showed me I was moving all wrong. Now I'm back out there. The pain's gone."

Robert

Active Retirement

"I couldn't run for two years. Not even a mile. I tried everything—PT, cortisone shots, rest. Nothing. After one session with Dr. Garrett, something clicked. I'm running again. Five miles, pain-free. I still can't believe it."

Kate

Runner Recovery

"I'm 24 and my back hurt so bad I couldn't sit through a work meeting. That's insane. I tried yoga, better chairs, standing desks—nothing helped. One session with Dr. Garrett and he found the problem in like 10 minutes. I don't think about my back anymore."

Amanda

Young Professional Relief

"Setenta años y pensé que el dolor era parte de envejecer. Dr. Garrett me mostró que no tiene que ser así. Now at 75, I'm playing with my grandchildren without pain for the first time in 20 years. It feels like a miracle."

Gloria

Chronic Pain Relief

"I couldn't bend down to weed my roses without my back seizing up. Forty years of gardening and my doctor said I should quit. I'm not quitting. Dr. Garrett taught me how to move differently—stuff nobody ever told me. I'm in my garden every morning now."

Terri

Gardener Recovery

"Fifteen years of photography destroyed my neck and shoulders. Physical therapy helped for maybe a week, then it came back. Dr. Garrett explained WHY I was in pain—nobody had ever done that. Once I understood it, the relief happened fast. It's been over a year now."

Rami

Photographer Recovery

"I've tried every treatment you can imagine. Chiropractors, acupuncture, $200/hour specialists. Temporary relief at best. I was honestly skeptical when I walked into Dr. Garrett's office. But he explained what was actually wrong in a way that finally made sense. That was three months ago. Still no pain."

How Clients Go From Chronic Pain to Pain-Free

Find the Imbalance

You're in pain because something in your body is working too much and something isn't working enough. Dr. Garrett watches how you move and finds exactly where that imbalance is.

Learn to Correct It

He teaches you specific exercises using simple props — yoga blocks, foam rollers, gymnastic rings — and physically guides you through each one so you can feel correct form in your body.

Keep Your Pain Gone for Good

The exercises are simple and they feel good — you'll actually want to do them. In follow-up sessions, Dr. Garrett refines your technique and adds new exercises as your body continues to improve.

Meet Your Guide

Dr. Garrett Hewstan

Most of his clients arrive after the usual approaches have failed. PT helped for a week. The chiropractor wanted them back every month. Injections bought some time. Dr. Garrett built the Amari Method to fix what those treatments miss — the root cause.

After 25+ years and thousands of sessions helping people out of pain, he built the Amari Method — a systematic approach that finally treats the root cause, not just the symptoms. He doesn't fix you. He shows you what your body has been trying to tell you all along. The principle is simple: your body is doing what you ask it to do. The question is—are you asking the right questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Amari Method

What exactly is the Amari Method?

The Amari Method is exercise-based pain relief built on a simple idea: you're in pain because something in your body is working too much and something isn't working enough. If you sit hunched at a desk all day, your body needs to open up the other way. Dr. Garrett assesses how you move, identifies where those imbalances are, and teaches you specific exercises to correct them. In a session, you'll work with simple props — yoga blocks, foam rollers, gymnastic rings, sometimes just your own hands — while he physically guides you into correct form. There are 8 core exercises in the full protocol. Unlike PT routines that feel like homework, these exercises are simple and feel good — which is why people actually stick with them. Follow-up sessions refine your technique and introduce new exercises as your body changes.

How quickly will I see results?

Most clients experience significant pain relief or complete elimination during their first session as you learn the exercises. The real transformation happens as you master the 8 core exercises and understand your compensation patterns. You'll build a personalized daily practice with exercises that work for your body, maintaining relief and preventing pain from returning.

Is this suitable for my type of pain?

The Amari Method works with most types of pain—chronic back pain, neck and shoulder tension, sports injuries, joint pain, and more. However, severe conditions or those requiring medical intervention should be discussed with Dr. Garrett during a free consultation. We'll assess whether the method is right for you and create a personalized plan.

Do I need to be flexible or in shape?

Not at all! The exercises are permission-based and adapted to your body exactly as it is right now. Whether you're stiff, out of shape, or recovering from injury, you'll learn modified versions that work for you. The philosophy is "gravitate toward what calls to you"—you'll naturally be drawn to the exercises your body needs most, and we'll meet you exactly where you are.

What's the difference between in-person and virtual sessions?

In-person sessions include hands-on teaching of the 8 core exercises and physical guidance through hanging, bridges, and decompression techniques. Virtual sessions work great for learning the exercises through detailed demonstrations and real-time feedback. Many clients start with one in-person session to learn the fundamentals with hands-on support, then continue virtually—both formats teach you the complete method effectively.

How long is each session?

Your initial session is 60 minutes and includes a full history, examination, findings discussion, and your first protocol. Follow-up sessions are 50 minutes and focus on checking your progress, refining your protocol, and advancing to the next stage.

Do you accept HSA or FSA payments?

Yes — we accept HSA (Health Savings Account) and FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards for all sessions. Many clients use their HSA/FSA funds to cover the cost of care, making it an even more accessible option for those with qualifying health accounts.

What credentials and training does Dr. Garrett have?

Dr. Garrett brings 25+ years of hands-on experience helping 200+ clients achieve lasting pain relief. His approach combines rigorous anatomical understanding with intuitive body awareness gained through decades of practice. He regularly continues his education to stay current with the latest body science and healing techniques.

What if the method doesn't work for me?

If you don't experience noticeable relief after your first session, we keep working with you until you do — at no additional charge. We don't stop until you feel the difference.

Can I do the online program if I've never tried the method?

Yes! The Living Practice program includes 53 videos that teach all 8 core exercises plus bonus techniques in detail. It's designed to guide you step-by-step through the complete method. However, many clients find that starting with at least one session with Dr. Garrett helps them understand their specific compensation patterns and get personalized guidance on which exercises to prioritize, which enhances the self-paced program experience.

Do you accept insurance?

We do not bill insurance directly. However, we can provide you with a detailed superbill (itemized receipt) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. Many clients have successfully received partial or full reimbursement for alternative care services. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about their coverage for out-of-network wellness services before your first session.
