“I reached out to Alex because my 17-year-old son, a competitive swimmer, had been struggling with persistent shoulder problems which started after the COVID shutdowns, issues that no amount of orthopedic visits, x-rays, or MRIs could fully resolve.
Until we found Alex. Alex has a unique perspective—not only is he a skilled physical therapist and personal trainer, but also a former swimmer himself, who truly understands the demands of the sport and approached my son’s recovery with that insight in mind.
He carefully analyzed swim videos, observed my son perform exercises, and identified movement patterns that others had missed.
Alex developed a personalized daily PT program that evolved with my son’s progress and his deep understanding of swimming mechanics, combined with his patient, and thoughtful approach, helped my son finally overcome his shoulder issues.
Today, he’s swimming pain-free and stronger than ever and we’re so grateful for Alex’s guidance and highly recommend him to any athlete looking for real, lasting results.”
