Helping People Solve Pain That Others Couldn't

I’m Doug Ringwald—Neuromuscular Therapist & Educator Specializing in Lasting Pain Relief through Coaching The Body®.

"Like many of my clients, I came to this work through pain."

I spent years dealing with pain that doctors couldn’t explain and standard treatments couldn’t resolve. I tried everything—massage, stretching, physical therapy, even surgery. Nothing stuck. It was frustrating, expensive, and deeply disempowering.

Then I discovered Coaching The Body®, a radically different approach to treating pain. It helped me understand where pain really comes from and how to resolve it—often without needing to touch the place that hurts.

It worked. It changed my life.

And it lit a fire in me to help others experience the same kind of transformation.

What I Do Now

I now help clients get out of pain—often when they’ve “tried everything else.” I also train therapists, yoga teachers, and fitness professionals to understand pain differently, and to get better results with their clients.

Through pain relief sessions and courses (online and in-person), I empower people to treat pain at the neuromuscular level—not just cover it up.

I do this using Coaching The Body®, a system that combines:

Advanced trigger point therapy
Functional anatomy
Pain neuroscience
Movement retraining
Thai bodywork, MET, PNF stretching, and more

A Unique Skillset

I’m not a licensed massage therapist, so I don’t offer massage in the legal or traditional sense.

What I do offer is Coaching The Body® bodywork and pain-free movement coaching, an integrated approach that blends manual therapy and neuromuscular retraining to produce fast, lasting change.

I’ve been deeply involved in developing and teaching this system for over 10 years, and it continues to evolve. Today, I specialize in:

Locating the true source of pain, which is often far from the pain itself
Using compression, vibration, and movement to retrain neuromuscular patterns
Teaching clients how to treat themselves so they don’t depend on endless sessions
