  My time with F2PT was just about a year ago, and I'm sorry I didn't write this sooner, but I absolutely want to shed light on how wonderful these people are. I am a physical therapist myself, and a weightlifter/CrossFitter. I completely overdid it during one of the CF Open workouts, and after the soreness wore off, I had some residual back pain that wasn't all too concerning until it was a week later and I still couldn't bend to touch my toes or sit on the toilet without using my hands for support. I tried the self-treatment route and could get myself to a point where I could walk around, but anytime I would sneeze my back would go into a spasm to the point where it was impossible to stand without support. I knew the staff at F2PT because I train and treat people at Studio 26. During my first session with Paul, he was able to point out the most seemingly minuscule things about the way I moved, and was able to modify certain movements that I was having difficulty performing in such ways that I could do them without pain (such as squatting and performing hinging motions). This gave me incredible hope that my injury was not as serious as it felt. After 3 or 4 sessions I was pain-free and began gradually adding weightlifting back into my life. The first comment my coach made was that my squat looked way better than before I was injured. I definitely have Paul to thank for that! Since then, I was very hesitant to deadlift and go back to Olympic weightlifting, but with the improved awareness I had after seeing Paul, I've been able to gradually build back to where I was almost 4 years ago when I was training to compete (AND without any aids like a weightlifting belt). I thought that dream was way behind me, but now it is something I am working towards again! Thanks for everything!

  Very attentive and professional staff. Andrew is the man, helping me recover from complete tears to my mcl and pcl. Highly recommend.

  These are my go-to guys, and they've helped me through many injuries throughout the years (and I get injured a lot). I've been to multiple physical therapists around the city and no one comes close to the knowledge of Chad and the others at F Squared. No matter if it's back, knee, or shoulder pain, Chad is always extremely thorough and sniffs out the source (and 9 times out of 10, it's not at all what I would've expected). He's helped me completely get rid of knee pain weeks before a charity bike ride from Boston to NY that I was convinced I'd have to pull out of. He restored feeling to my arm and hands after a pec injury led to a pinched nerve (I didn't even know anything was wrong with my pec!) He genuinely loves helping people get better and is one of the most dedicated professionals I know. I recommend Chad and the rest of the gang at F Squared any chance I can. I genuinely can't say enough positive things about them.

  F2PT is amazing. I have been going here for a very nasty shoulder injury (bike accident with multiple clavicle breaks, scar tissue, nerve damage, rotator cuff damage) and they've worked wonders. With their help I did a marathon 6 months after the accident and am on target to do a half Ironman 9 moths after and an Ironman again 1 year later. Given how bad an injury I had this is amazing work! You couldn't find nicer and more thoroughly effective/knowledge people as Chad, Paul, and Gurbans. They're great! Very trustworthy. I can't recommend them more highly. You should go see them.

  I had an ankle surgery that went wrong in 2010 and spent over a year walking around in pain. I has previously seen two other physical therapists in the city who who not help with the pain I was having in my ankle, knee, and hip. I was referred to Paul at F Squared during the Summer of 2012 and worked with him for period of six months. In a relatively short amount of time, Paul enabled me to walk around pain free. Before I had my surgery I was a professional dancer and never thought I would be able to do the things I had done once before. After many early mornings and some hard work, I have been able to start again the thing I love best. Thank you Paul.
