I cannot say enough good things about Michaels Slotin and his practice. I originally came to Michael because I was concerned about my running stride efficiency (I was a heel striker and unsure of how to proceed). Michael evaluated my gait while running barefoot on a treadmill and suggested a postural assessment. Sure enough, underlying muscular imbalances were contributing to my irregular running technique and chronic neck pain. It was nothing short of fascinating - I had no idea how my body had contorted itself over the years due to hours of sitting (one leg stronger, one arm stronger, hips tilted

My friend recommended Mike Slotin to me. She thought he could help with my back problems which were keeping me form doing even regular things like walking.
She was right. His massage and fitness therapies have made a big difference, I am no longer in chronic pain; my back is stronger; I move better and my body is in better balance. I highly recommend him. The studio is top notch and the staff is totally professional.

I am a 76 year old woman whose had bilateral hip replacements. Before I started fitness therapy and therapeutic massage with Michael Slotin I had to lift my leg with my hand to get into my car and I couldn't get off the floor without pulling myself up holding on to the furniture. Now I swing my leg into my car without even thinking about it and I can get up off the floor under my own power. I rate Michael Slotin Fitness Therapy five stars but he deserves 10 stars for the improvement he's facilitated in my life. He's a true professional in every way. I will work with him for as long as I'm able

I have been coming to Michael for a little over 2 years and i was in bad shape the first time i saw him. The knowledge that he as when it comes to massage and anatomy is like no other. He has taught me how the body works and has gotten me out of pain thru massage therapy. I am so grateful for his caring nature and his ability to help those in chronic pain. I have just started a new program with him on posture assessment and feel strongly that this will be the answer to becoming Pain Free!!!

A month ago I was unable to move. I had the Nuss Procedure done about 18 months ago and have been in debilitating pain since. He not only got me out of pain but I’m now building muscle. He is a god send without a doubt. Him and his wife are very positive, nice and intelligent people. I can’t express enough how great full I am for them.

As an active senior "snowbird" looking for a place to do strength training and improve posture, I hit the jackpot when I found this studio! Every session is personal training that pushes the individual to reach their maximum effort. This is not the boring "3 sets of 12 reps". Every session consists of several exercises, each designed to reach fatigue in a very short period of time. I found this method sustains my interest and is more productive than other training methods. Christine and Michael are knowledgable and encouraging as well as very personable . Christine also introduced me to Gyrotonics

I went for a beach run with Michael this morning. He was very patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He gave me great instruction on proper running technique, and I ran longer than I've ever been able to run before. We followed up with some very good stretches before their studio filled up with happy students. Very fun experience and nice people!

The 28 day challenge at Michael Slotin fitness was awesome!! I have tried numerous diets and fad supplements to lose weight and nothing worked. Michael really knows his stuff. His level of dietary knowledge and training is far superior to any personal trainer I have ever had. I would highly recommend the 28 day challenge to anyone struggling to lose weight.

Fitness Therapy is more than a gym. Michael Slotin and the other staff provide outstanding guidance and support in every way. I recently participated in the "28 Day Transformation" and lost 22 pounds and many inches! Michael and Christina provided nutrition information and cooking instructions, to help us learn how to shop, prepare and enjoy healthy, yet delicious dishes. Along with the fitness and yoga classes I have regained my health and vitality. If you are looking to change yourself for the better, you really must check out Fitness Therapy for yourself!
