"High-level athletes around the world rely on chiropractic care to optimize performance, enhance recovery, prevent injury, and keep their bodies performing at their absolute best."
Dr. Jason Mazzarella
During my chiropractic training, I was selected for an elite Sports Science Rotation at the United States Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid, New York. This rotation provided me with the opportunity to work alongside top-level athletes and learn advanced techniques specifically designed to optimize performance, accelerate recovery, and enhance injury prevention at the highest level of competition.
At Universal Health, we now offer these same proven, world-class treatment methods in clinic — helping athletes of all levels move better, recover faster, and perform at their absolute best.

What sets us apart and gets you back to your sport fast....
FNTR is a modern rehabilitation approach that is a combination of neuroscience, physical therapy, biomechanics, kinesiology and pain management combined to ensure functional movement patterns, improved proprioception and reduce injury potential.
The general concept of injury is that musculoskeletal injury (i.e. injury to joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments) and overuse causes pain and loss of functional ability during sport. However, many times, it is not the repetition that causes pain, but the change in functional patterns of motion, proprioception and muscle imbalances that develop over weeks, months and years doing the same movement patterns.
By identifying these abnormal movement patterns, and providing corrective exercises, many patients experience significant and long lasting pain relief, while still being able to compete at the highest level.
