Work toward reaching, lifting, and returning to the activities shoulder pain has interrupted. The Amari Method combines hands-on guidance with a practice you learn to use yourself.
Book a $49 AssessmentTell Garrett which movements shoulder pain is interrupting—reaching overhead, lifting, or playing your sport. In your private Assessment, you do the movements while he guides the setup and adjusts the hands-on support around your feedback.
Describe the movement that feels restricted and the activities it affects. You do not need to arrive with a theory about the cause.
You move, breathe, and pay attention to what changes. Garrett adjusts the setup rather than asking you to force your shoulder through a fixed range.
A substantial first-session change can happen. Continued sessions give you time to build on your response and become more familiar with the movements yourself.
Read what happens in your first Assessment, see how the guided movement works, or meet Garrett Hewstan.

Work toward the movements your activities and everyday life ask of you.

My shoulder was just the weakest link in a much bigger picture.Paul · Weightlifter
Your first visit is a private, 60-minute session in San Francisco focused on reducing pain and freeing up movement. Your feedback shapes the hands-on guidance. A substantial change can happen in the first session.
No. You do not need flexibility or prior movement experience. The practice begins with how you move today.
No. Amari is a movement practice and does not diagnose or treat medical conditions. Ask your clinician about new or worsening symptoms, an acute injury, recent surgery, or a serious diagnosis before booking.
Use what you notice in the Assessment to decide whether to continue. Further sessions build on the work and help you develop more of your own practice. There is no preset outcome or recovery timeline.
Tell Garrett which movements feel restricted and which activities you want to return to. You take part in guided movements and positions while he adjusts the setup around your feedback. Amari does not diagnose the cause of shoulder pain; medical evaluation remains with your clinician.
