"Jay is awesome. Great with communication and makes the session fun."
“Jay definitely personalizes the sessions to your specific needs and it's not a generic rehab plan like I feel some places do.”
“Jay's been really available outside of my slotted times whenever I have questions, and does an excellent job explaining not only the how's but also the why's.”
Don't Let Injuries Hold Back Your Athletic Potential
Without proper sports-specific rehabilitation, you risk recurring injuries and compromised performance levels.
Continuing to train through pain can lead to compensatory movements and new injuries
Lost training time means decreased performance and missed opportunities
Generic physical therapy may not address sport-specific movement patterns

What Athletes Say About Salerno PT
See why athletes trust us with their recovery and performance goals
"Jay is the best physical therapist I’ve ever worked with, and I have had severe back issues since early childhood, and he has changed my life . At 67 years old I’m in the best shape I’ve been in in 25 years. I have great balance, flexibility and my back doctor was very impressed how much better I am... He is the best!"
"I’ve never thought going to physical therapy was a way to deal with ongoing issues from having an active lifestyle. Working with Jay over the last 7 months has shown me multiple ways to work through lower back issues in order to keep me doing the things I love doing - hiking and diving. It’s a great feeling to see progress in strength and mobility. Jay is dependable, available and very easy to work with."
