As a family we have been treated by Anthony De Rosa many times over the years for various musculoskeletal injuries. Recently I went to see Anthony because I was experiencing generalized muscle weakness and aching. I have been a runner & avid exerciser for my entire adult life. What made this different is that I could not run or perform exercises that I had been doing for many years. Anthony listened to my issues, performed a thorough evaluation, and designed an individual exercise program that I was able to complete. After seeing my primary care physician, a sports medicine specialist, and a rheumatologist I was diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica, an autoimmune disease effecting people of my age and genetic makeup. I will be forever grateful to Anthony for providing me with an exercise regimen I was able to follow to maintain strength, range of motion, and cardio-respiratory fitness during this period. Thank you, Anthony.
