Functional Rehabilitation
After visiting close to 10 doctors around the country, many of them in NYC, I can honestly say that Domenic cured my heel problem which I have had for close to two and a half years. I am writing to thank you for the wonderful physical therapy you gave to my husband. Recovering from removal of a subdural hematoma., his muscle strength and glance were very poor.

Having spent a month with you, he is greatly improved. Physical Therapy at Vado Therapy can help work out stiffness without causing further joint damage. Although a golf swing involves nearly every muscle in the body, the core and lower body play pivotal roles in a golfer's conditioning.
Services
Many people with arthritis experience joint stiffness because they avoid movements that cause an increase in pain. By not moving arthritic joints, stiffness and pain only worsen. Physical Therapy at Vado Therapy can help work out stiffness without causing further joint damage. Let us help you get back to a pain free life.
The heart of the Vado Therapy philosophy is simple: Every treatment should be pro-active, not re-active. This means that we treat the root of the problem, which enables the strongest holding recovery available. Every individual receives a private evaluation, which determines the problem, past inhibitors and the most efficient methods of healing.
Physical Therapy at Vado Therapy can help athletes regain strength and mobility after a sports-related injury. During treatment, our therapists can help answer questions regarding what type of injury you have, recovery time and preventative measures to avoid re-injury. Let us help you get back in the game!
A safe home rehab device that saves and shifts the use of limited physical therapy visits to when hands-on, functional therapy is required. Following surgery, a sling is often used to immobilize the joint and give the surgical site an opportunity to heal. Unfortunately, that combination of surgery and sling can come with the unpleasant side effects of stiffness, loss in range of motion, and pain.
To protect our patient's privacy, we have anonymized testimonials that have been submitted to us in writing, postcards, and emails. Tap or click the review to expand it. Dom and his team have been a huge help for me personally. Being a golfer, I dealt with severe lower back pain. At times I even wondered if I could ever play to my potential again.

This is the first time I have experienced the quality, expertise, shared knowledge and attention to detail in a physical therapy facility since I started with physical therapy in 2008! Most importantly, the results i am benefitting from surpass my past experiences and even my expectations. Who could ask for anything more. And oh yes, the staff could not be better!

My experience with Dominic and his staff have been supportive & beneficial during pre-op & post op therapy. Before my hip replacement, in order to strengthen muscles that had atrophied due to a severe limp and also to restore some flexibility. Then after surgery, the therapy received at Vato Therapy with my new hip has progressed quickly. I'm amazed at how the treatment & strengthening exercises have enhanced my recovery. The guidance by staff members Carly & Kyle has been very supportive and much appreciated.

Getting injured, falling down or losing some of your motions is tough.
Getting back up and all of your strength & motions is the ultimate goal.
VADO Therapy is the best place to get back to normal functions.
The staff is extremely knowledgeable & attentive during the recovery process. Trust them to help you get better.

Best in the business! Was scheduled to compete in my first half iron man but partially pulled my hamstring three days before the race. I feared I would not be able to run the race. This could have been the case if not for Vado! Two days at Vado, they spent the time to work with me and get me ready to compete. Not only did I finish the race, I was able to finish with a competitive time, finishing 3rd in my group. They are extremely knowledgeable and some of the nicest people you will meet. Dom is the man!

I’ve have only been a patient here for a few short months so far but this place and the staff are incredible. They truly value you as a person and helping you get better and stronger from whatever ails you. Dom is a pretty funny guy too. Carly definitely makes coming here enjoyable and cares about your progress. Highly recommend this place!

Went to Vado after my second shoulder surgery, I haven’t had good motion in my shoulder for the past 5+ years. Now I am 12 weeks out from surgery and making significant progress. The staff is excellent and fun and the scheduling is easy and flexible. I highly recommend.

I have now been attending Vado Therapy for about a month. When I started I could not sleep at night because of the injury to my left shoulder. Within two weeks I was able to get a decent nights sleep and now a month since I started I am sleeping all night and my injury has minimized. The injury is still active somewhat and Dom has recommended MRIs of shoulder and neck which I will be getting shortly to make sure there is no underlying cause for the persistence. I have no hesitancy in highly recommending Dom and his crew particularly Carlee. They have been of great help for me.

Having witnessed physical therapy centers that upon entering you experience a subdued clinical type environment which I frankly found to be depressing - that’s NOT Vado! Dealing with a rotator cuff surgery immediately followed by being confined to a sling 24/7 (including sleeping) for 5 consecutive weeks and, by doctor’s orders, only to be removed during physical therapy was physically and mentally straining enough.
Attributes of a professional physical therapist are not limited to a mechanical thorough knowledge of body muscular functions but a compassionate understanding of the patients’

My experience with Vado therapy could not have been better. After major shoulder surgery, Dom implemented my program and even personally delivered a piece of equipment he designed and patented to my home. At each session, the entire staff knew of my issues and all participated in my recovery in some capacity. This interaction fostered a sense of community at Vado that contributed my recovery. Dominic's professional, friendly and extremely knowledgeable approach to therapy is obviously contagious with his staff. From the receptionist to the other therapists, not only did my recovery benefit, I feel

I’m so glad I was referred to Vado Therapy. The therapists I worked with gave clear guidance on ensuring the exercises I did were done correctly. They were personable and took a real interest in each patient. I could not have been more pleased with their expertise and professionalism. Christina at the front desk was more than willing to accommodate last- minute scheduling changes I had. Dominic, the owner, was always on hand to give me tips on how to do exercises correctly on my own. This was the best choice of PT and I truly hope you consider going there.

I've been coming to Vado for the last 3.5 weeks. Dom, Jeff & Maria are terrific! Personal one on one PT is wonderful. He works with you only, not 3-4 people at the same time. No stim just massage instead. I've been working with Jeff and he's so caring and terrific. I had a knee replacement and developed Sciatica from the epidural and the pain has been non-stop. This week the Sciatica is starting to give in and my knee is finally doing great thanks to Jeff! They really care about your progress.

Extremely competent physical therapy. I had prior therapy elsewhere for spinal stenosis which was not helpful. Therapy at Vado has significantly reduced discomfort and improved my balance and gait. Also, the therapists are gentle; they don't push the patient beyond where the patient is presently able to go. Highly recommended.

I have started physical therapy at the Fountains CC where Vado Physical Therapy provides the care. What a lucky discovery this was! This is the first time I have ever had a therapist who concentrates on one patient at a time. When you arrive you are welcomed and made to feel as if you and your physical problems will be addressed professionally, that there will be no interruptions and you will feel better at the end of the session.
I have never encountered this treatment before and it has renewed my faith in physical therapy.
The therapists are friendly, caring and knowledgeable. They do not make

Dominic Pompile is by far the most highly educated physical therapists around. He is extremely knowledgeable, he has helped many professional athletes. I highly recommend Domenic and Vado therapy. Dominic has helped me recover from several back and knee injuries. He is excellent at evaluating and diagnosing as well as an amazing strength and conditioning coach. My son is a high school baseball player and I always have him see Domenic for everything. If you want to be the best then you must see the best and that would be Domenic Pompile..

Massage therapist was horrible - I had ONE pimple on my back that was minuscule and she refused to touch my back and just put a sheet over my entire back and did a weird pushing technique. She didn't know what she was doing and was just apathetic about the whole thing. She told me my back was gross and she wouldn't touch it. It was on my birthday and looking back I should have left as soon as she started berating me but I was so shocked I just lied there. Unprofessional and nasty. Do not recommend massage therapy. The only reason I went because it was convenient and close by, waste of

In February of 2016 I injured my shoulder. I am not new to shoulder injuries, so I did all the recommended exercises, but I was still in a great deal of pain and showed no improvement. I tried several doctors and a few different physical therapists and was given traditional protocols. I was not healing and was extremely discouraged and exhausted from the pain. My GP sent me to Dr. Matarazzo and he was confident that I would have success at Vado therapy with no surgery. I was told that Domenic, the owner and physical therapist of Vado Therapy was an expert in shoulder injuries. I was surprised by

As a person who believes when it comes to health and medical, i believe in finding the best educated, the best trained and the best available. The same philosophy should be applied to physical therapy as it makes a tremendous difference in any rehabilitation or therapy.

Having also personally experienced 5-6 physical therapy facilities mostly in the Northeast over the years, Vado Therapy is by far the best in quality of care and physical therapy I have ever received.

The owner, Dominic Pompile has any uncanny attention to detail, ability to diagnose exactly what is wrong, the proper therapy

Dominic is a miracle worker. He is not just a therapist. He is also a personal trainer. He uses hands on therapy, an incredible arm exercise machine of his own invention, and numerous therapeutic exercises. After several months of unsuccessful therapy elsewhere (after rotator cuff surgery and my now frozen shoulder)I finally found Vado therapy. Within the first hour, Dominic, Had unfrozen my shoulder and had achieved more flexibility in my shoulder (with less pain) than I achieved the prior five months elsewhere.
