Our Journey
After spending his early career frustrated by inconsistent success and the limitations of traditional Physical Therapy approaches, KFMT founder, Elliot Fishbein, dedicated himself to the goal of providing elite level care to every patient who walks in the door, no matter what the diagnosis or condition.
To help meet this goal, he began taking courses in Functional Manual Therapy® (FMT) approach, which integrates manual therapy, exercise, and body awareness training, and specializes in whole body care. Over the next 10+ years of integrative study he became one of only 30 therapists in the country to have completed fellowship level training in this area.
Since then, his practice has expanded to a team of 5 Certified Functional Manual Therapists, and one Craniosacral Therapist, all who all strive to provide world class care and provide help for many conditions that are often difficult to solve with more traditional approaches. The practice is constantly evolving in their mission to provide world-class patient-centered care to those in need.
In addition, KFMT integrates and works with the Pilates staff at the Kinected Center as well as a diverse group of health and wellness practitioners. Together they provide educational events and complementary care before, during, and after Physical Therapy.
