Frustrated with setbacks in your lifting?
You train hard, but nagging aches, recurring injuries, and stalled progress can make you feel stuck.
Most lifters are left choosing between cookie-cutter rehab that doesn’t get them back under the bar or generic programs that don’t consider injury history.
Coaching and rehab built for lifters, by lifters.
Our licensed physical therapists and barbell strength coaches understand the unique needs of barbell athletes because we are lifters ourselves.
We combine clinical expertise with proven training methods so you can:
Recover from pain and injury while still training.
Progress your lifts with individualized programming.
Build strength that lasts—inside and outside the gym.
About Progressive Rehab & Strength
With over 38 years of combined experience, PRS has been providing barbell training, coaching, and programs to clients locally in NYC, Long Island, and Philadelphia, but also virtually through our online training programs.
Using a combination of expertise in physical therapy and strength training, Progressive Rehab & Strength coaches take an individualized approach for each client to help them train optimally, remain injury-free, and surpass every goal.
Coaches adjust programming to meet every athlete’s unique needs, recognize potential movement and programming issues, and make adjustments before those issues lead to injury. Every PRS coach uses a hands-on, active approach to physical therapy, strength, and nutrition programming that yields proven results.
The PRS coaches have helped elite athletes come back from injuries, weekend warriors realize ambitious goals, and people of all activity levels and ages move more freely, get stronger, and live their best lives. They’re with you every step of the way: from the treatment table, to the weight room, to the win on the platform.

About Dr. Rori, PRS Founder and Head Clinical Coach
Hi, I'm Dr. Rori! I founded Progressive Rehab & Strength after seeing how traditional outpatient PT limited what people could achieve. Insurance restrictions, rushed appointments, and a lack of understanding around progressive overload kept clients from getting the care they needed. PRS was built to change that with simple, effective, strength-based physical therapy and coaching. The name and logo reflect our core belief that progressive overload, along with the connection between rehab, strength, and behavior change, create long-lasting results.
Every clinician at PRS is a physical therapist, a strength coach, and an athlete. We study the body, coach the body, and live in our own bodies as athletes. This combination allows us to see what others have missed and create individualized, biomechanically sound, active treatment plans that help clients return to life and sport stronger than before. Trust, attention to detail, individualism, professionalism, and community shape everything we do.
Clients come to PRS because they want clarity, support, and real progress. We prioritize education and autonomy so that each person understands their body and can continue to improve long after their time with us. Our goal is simple: help people get better than they were before with an actionable, sustainable, effective model that lasts.
