Earlier in my career I faced career-ending elbow surgery. Thanks to Matt's
expertise I was able to successfully return pitching at the major league level.

After retiring from the NFL, I had elbow surgery to repair a torn tendon. Matt
was able to get me back playing my second favorite sport-golf-without any
problems

My golf instructor referred me to Matt Smalling for a general physical
assessment related to golf. Matt had me do various physical tests and
determined that I needed more flexibility and/or strength in certain
parts of
my body. He also identified some limitations in range of motion that I had that
were making it difficult for me to make some swing changes that I was
working
on with my instructor. This was very helpful in that I realized that just
hitting balls on the range would not completely fix some of my
swing
problems. I had to increase my range of motion (specifically in my
right shoulder) to fix a key swing issue that I have been working on with my
golf
instructor. Matt then took me through some specific stretches and other
movements for general golf fitness but also to address my problem areas. He
also provided some picture handouts of these exercises to help me do these
correctly. I strongly recommend Matt Smalling if you are a golfer and want to
improve your body in order to improve your golf. |

Matt Smalling has been a huge member of our team. With his help and
knowledge we have become better instructors. Understanding what a student
can and cannot do functionally with his or her body has helped save time
when it comes to building a program for improvement. Part of getting better
at something is understanding what needs to get better and how to get better
at it. Form does follow function. Matt's training not only helps build
better athletes, but also makes quality of life better. We are lucky to have
the knowledge and friendship that Matt brings.
