How We help You
Injury management and rehabilitation
We aim to alleviate your discomfort from the first session and empower you with self-care techniques to expedite recovery. Professional athletes often recover swiftly because they engage in daily rehabilitation. We customize your plan, providing resources to perform daily programs, just like the pros!
Injury prevention and enhancing athletic performance
Our assessments can detect asymmetries and imbalances that might be hindering your athleticism. Through our program, you can address these issues, retraining your brain to adopt more efficient movement patterns, resulting in optimal performance.
PHYSICAL THERAPY ALTERNATIVE THAT IS “OUT-OF-THE-BOX"
We don’t believe in a “PROTOCOL” based approach. We think WAY, way out of the box. We may even create a brand new exercise for your complaint based on what you do for a living or what it is that you desire to do for recreation. We are thinkers and you get 100% of our brain power on each visit.

How is True Sport Care different from traditional physical therapy?
Physical therapy encompasses various methods to address bodily issues. In New York, conventional physical therapy often requires a physician's referral and extended treatment periods. At True Sport Care, our unique methods produce results in the first few visits, minimizing scheduling inconveniences and reducing the cost associated with numerous sessions. Who has the time to spend hours at weekly therapy sessions?
- You don’t need a medical referral to come see us: With traditional PT it might take weeks or even months before you can be seen by a physical therapist. The ordeal of heading to your MD and then getting a referral for PT can be time-consuming. Why not simply call, set up an appointment with one of our Doctors and get started straight away. No script needed!
- Faster resolution of the issue:
We are able to test 130 individual muscles and analyze specific movement patterns to find the root of the pain or reoccurring injuries. - A multi-faceted approach:
At True Sport Care, we employ the use of multiple techniques to help you treat the cause of pain. Your personalized sessions will include some or all of the following: corrective exercises, joint mobilization (chiropractic adjustments), soft tissue techniques, and a comprehensive custom home exercise program. This approach ensures that you see results and improvement faster than with traditional physical therapy. - One-to-one specialist to patient ratio:
When you come in for rehab at our office, you will always receive undivided attention from the specialist for the entire duration of the visit. Nothing will slip through the cracks during your visit and we will find the precise cause of your pain, injury or a way to improve your specific athletic performance. No assistants, No aides, and no unattended therapies. Even if you are exercising we WILL BE WATCHING! Sounds creepy but it’s necessary for good rehab.
- Non-traditional approach:
We have fused many techniques to create our system of analysis and treatment which is like no other. If you didn’t get the results that you were seeking with traditional Physical Therapy, give us a call and let us show you what a difference we can make. - Faster relief that lasts:
Traditional PT is often prescribed 2-3 times a week for 6-8 weeks. After the treatment is over, the problems often return. In most cases, we can relieve pain within 3 visits. We address dysfunctional movement patterns that cause the issue in the first place and are able to prevent the problem from recurring in the future. - Treatment and prevention of sports injuries:
Most people turn to PT because of pain or injury. We fix the immediate issue that brought the athlete to our office and help prevent future injuries by analyzing and correcting muscular imbalances. - Improved performance in sports:
Our approach is focused on identifying muscular imbalances and dysfunctional movement patterns in athletes. As mentioned before, we are able to test 130 individual muscles to pick up on compensation patterns quickly. We approach every athletic move from a biomechanical standpoint and are able to break down even the most complex moves to identify underlying muscle weaknesses or compensation patterns. When these imbalances are corrected, our athletes can perform their moves more efficiently and improve their overall performance.
let's Get Started
What to Expect During Your Visit
During your sports rehab or physical therapy visit to True Sport Care in Nesconset you can expect to receive a comprehensive analysis and customized rehabilitation plan that will leave you feeling better after the first session.
1. Health/Injury History Review
After introductions, we will mostly listen as many issues can reveal themselves with a solid history. We may ask some leading questions but during this time we are getting a better idea of what we may be dealing with. It’s a little like playing detective.
2. Movement analysis
We will then run you through a unique analysis that will demonstrate weaknesses or imbalances that you didn’t know you had. We will show you how some muscles are dependent on others which causes a “compensation pattern” and consequently pain.
3. Treatment and Rehab Plan
After this discovery process, we will reduce your pain with one of our many soft tissue techniques and/or joint mobilization, and then teach you the exercises needed to correct your imbalance. Your customized rehab plan is supported by our YouTube channel and proprietary app which have video demonstrations of most of the exercises you will receive.
4. You Will Feel Better
Our goal is to make you feel at least 40-50% better on your first visit.
