Turning injury into opportunity is what Jared does best. In 2011, after Jared herniated disc C3, C4, C5, L4, L5 and S1 which cased nerve damage, Jared turned to Pilates. Pilates allowed him to rehabilitate his back while continuing to stay in shape and avoiding surgery. Then in 2016, Jared experienced his worst injury yet; bulging, herniated discs C2-C7 which caused loss of strength in his left arm for six months and numbness in his thumb, index finger, arm, shoulder and back. Plus, he also ruptured his L5 which caused his toes to go numb and his calves, glutes and piriformis muscles to cramp up. Once again, Jared turned to Pilates to rehab his injuries while avoiding the need for surgery. Now, Jared uses his experience and expertise to help others who are living with injuries or working hard to avoid them.
