Sam O’Brien is a Neurostructural Technique and Be Activated practitioner who desires to see people operate in their optimal health and body alignment. NST spinal integration played a pivotal role in his training, recovery time, and injury prevention as he competed at the professional level in ninja warrior events across the United States for many years. Though he enjoyed many successes as a world class athlete, all of that changed when an injury resulting in two herniated discs severely limited his mobility for months and left him staring down the barrel of a possible operation. Continued NST sessions proved instrumental in restoring his full range of motion, the ability to walk once again without pain, and the blessing of avoiding injections and surgery altogether. After a lengthy recovery process, Sam knew he wanted to give back and provide an opportunity for others to benefit from the same soft-tissue technique that granted him a new outlook on life.

Sam has a story of perseverance; his ninja warrior journey began with being unable to do something as simple as one pull up. As he continued his training, he quickly rose through the ranks to become a world class athlete. He has faced many obstacles on and off the course and desires to use the lessons he’s learned to inspire, encourage, and coach others to overcome their challenges and believes that champions never stop reaching for the next win. 

When he’s not working with clients, Sam enjoys coaching fitness, staying active in a career of acting & modeling. Making an appearance in shows such as the Netflix series Cobra Kai or being featured on the Hallmark Channel. You may also find him doing the occasional skydive or frequenting the local gym and ninja course near you.

Sam remains an active advocate for total body health and inspires others to keep moving. He is the owner and primary practitioner of Muscle Modality, based out of Franklin, TN, and services the greater Nashville area.
