Meet the Doctor

Dr. Trinkoff's specialty is working with athletes, recreational to professional and helping them achieve optimal physical fitness. Dr. Trinkoff has spent many years studying the fields of static (postural) and dynamic (muscular movement) problems that affect the human skeletal structure. Quite often, he can find the weak link which everyone has overlooked. He does this by analyzing the human frame as a whole, then correcting faulty movement patterns, identifying tight or inhibited muscles and analyzing and correcting posture. With his certification as a fitness trainer he can help you achieve the level of fitness you desire by designing a workout program specific to your needs. His patients are treated as an entire entity and not looked at as a bad back or neck. Humans are dynamic organisms, with often complex variety of factors that have led to a breakdown somewhere in the system. Properly analyzing these factors and employing a targeted approach at fixing the person, not just the symptom, is the focus of Dr. Trinkoff's approach.
