Training for the Functional Athlete in Astoria, NY

Description

Training for the Functional Athlete

In New York, daily life asks a lot of your body. Taking the stairs down to the subway, standing on a moving train, walking city blocks, carrying groceries up to your apartment and getting up from a desk chair are all movements you count on every day.

Training for the Functional Athlete treats you like the athlete you already are. Your physical therapist looks at how you move through your day and builds a one-on-one program around the strength, balance and endurance those movements need, so everyday tasks feel easier and more confident.
