I came to Dr. Fidler after experiencing chronic neck and shoulder pain built up from poor posture and long hours at a desk. I had tried a lot of stretching and expensive massages, but they only provided temporary relief and I was desperate for a lasting solution. Dr. Fidler customized a program for me and through following it consistently, my pain has not only dissipated, it has not come back since. He is knowledgable, communicative, and collaborative - adapting my programming to my specific needs and concerns as they came up throughout the process. I'm so happy I came to him, and I absolutely recommend you do the same if you're struggling with ongoing pain. read more

The great reviews are well earned! I found Dr. Fidler right here on Yelp and I couldn't be more grateful. An old lifting injury turned into chronic pain that, on a good day, kept me from touching my toes. On day-one he was able to pinpoint exactly what was wrong, helped me gain some flexibility back, and built a program focused on healing the issue first, THEN building strength. Four months in and i'm able to lift and move like I never thought I would again. This is absolutely the place to go and the Dr. Fidler is the man to see! read more

I worked with Dr. Fidler for a shoulder injury/rotator cuff tear and had an excellent experience. What stood out immediately was that Jason treated this like a true return-to-sport process. He ran a full program with me, not just a series of sessions. He reviewed my MRI and notes from my orthopedic surgeon and used them to shape the care plan. He was also generous with his time when I asked questions about next steps and medical decision-making (including how to think about whether additional PRP made sense). He was patient and thoughtful and his guidance practical and reflective of his clinical knowledge and personal experience having navigated multiple sports injuries and rehab processes. Dr. Fidler focused on underlying contributors, not just symptom relief. We worked on scapular strength and mechanics, posture, and movement patterns that likely contributed to the injury. He also combines multiple modalities (PT, chiropractic/manual work, and active release techniques), which helped address both mobility and strength deficits that made me prone to injury. Over 5-6 months, we progressed from basic rehab to complex lifting. I went from not being able to do much upper-body lifting--let alone CrossFit--to doing nearly everything again, including overhead/Olympic lifting. I highly recommend him. read more

I spent three months working with Dr. Jason Fidler at Functional Rehab to address sciatic and disc pain, and I can't recommend his services enough. Dr. Fidler's attention to detail during every session was second to none--he customized my care down to the position of my feet during exercises, which made all the difference. Each session was focused, uninterrupted, and clearly tailored to my specific needs, not a one-size-fits-all program. What stood out was his dedication to getting me "pickleball ready." The custom program he created for me was designed to make me strong and pain-free for sports, and it showed. The Truecoach app he used for at-home exercises was a helpful addition, though new to him, it kept me on track. Scheduling was always easy, and Dr. Fidler's deep knowledge of the body and results-driven approach ensured I received top-notch care. Whether you need chiropractic care or a full rehabilitation program, Dr. Fidler is the person to see! read more

Really enjoyed working with Dr. Fidler! I'd been dealing with neck pain for months and it finally got to the point that it was debilitating enough and affecting my daily function and felt I had to do something about it. I really appreciate that Dr. Fidler's approach is more holistic and focused on building mobility, strength, and stability rather than quick fixes. He was very communicative throughout the process and took the time to understand my needs. I appreciated that the exercises were tailored to my needs and we even made some adjustments to work with my busy schedule. Would highly recommend! read more

Very happy with Dr. Fidler. I saw him for significant upper back pain that had lasted for weeks. He took a thorough history, explained what he thought might be going on, stretched/adjusted my back, and the pain was gone at the end of the session. It came back (he said it likely would) so I did the strengthening exercises at home he recommended and returned weekly. He adjusted treatment based on what I reported, ordered x-rays when it was still bothering me after a few weeks, and used those results to change the treatment plan again and this time totally hit the nail on the head. I'm pain-free, have improved my WFH ergonomics tremendously based on his recommendations, and couldn't be happier. read more

I came to see Dr. Fidler after injuring my neck lifting weights improperly. My neck had been stiff from arthritis for years but now I had zero mobility and was in constant pain. I found Dr. Fidler and chose to work with him because he is very knowledgeable and I trusted his approach . He provided an individualized plan for both in session and at home exercises. He really knows his stuff! The entire treatment plan was explained thoroughly and convenient to follow on a coaching app. I learned from him that the long-term solution was to strengthen my upper and mid back muscles. I've completely recovered and have more mobility than prior to the injury. He's very patient and attentive. I highly recommend him. read more

Dr. Fidler is an excellent PT. He has a thorough and detailed knowledge anatomy. He's helped me recover from multiple sports injuries, and given me the tools to keep my body in great shape. I highly recommend him! read more

I wanted someone who would connect all the dots, not just give me a few exercises for my foot. Dr. Fidler is exactly what I was looking for. He's helping me understand my whole body and work to get back in balance and better mobility - and avoid injuries and prevent some issues I see in my parents. I've already recommended him to a friend. He explains it all, and it makes sense - not just in my head, but also in what I have been feeling and struggling with in my body. Highly recommend working with him! read more

I had mystery knee pain, Dr fidler was astonishingly thorough and effective. He did a comprehensive assessment, some adjustments on the table as well as some target exercises in the gym. He provided an email summary of his findings and written instructions for home exercises. I returned for a second visit and it was again epic, my knee pain was relieved as well as other olds issues I had long given up on. It was the most comprehensive and effective chiropractic care I've ever had. He is truly gifted, not to mention very pleasant and caring. read more

Jason has been a pleasure to work with - unlike many chiropractors or physical therapists who do one or the other, he combines both disciplines for a more holistic approach. He follows up after sessions with detailed emails breaking down the exercises for the week. Highly recommend! read more

I came to Dr. Fidler with a bulging disk issue after a bad deadlift. Thought it would just be a few sessions, but I've been seeing him regularly now for months to continue strengthening my core and back. His holistic approach expanded my goal from "fix my disc" to "change/improve my entire approach to exercise." I'm pretty experienced in the gym so it was incredibly eye-opening to realize I'd been squatting and deadlifting incorrectly for years, despite thinking I had great form. Unlike other rehab places, Dr. Fidler doesn't just assess you and then pass you off to some intern to go through the motions with corrective exercises. He understands that the corrective exercises are the most important thing, and he's very diligent about working with you one-on-one, never shy about pointing out any small mistakes in form. And best of all, he sends you an email going over the exercises in detail, so you don't lose track of it all going forward. Very very helpful, highly recommend! read more

I came to Dr. Fidler for lower back pain, and left not only with significantly less pain, but so much more! Dr. Fidler has been so attentive to my progress, and works holistically to alleviate any and all discomfort. He shares physical therapy tools and exercises tailored to my body and needs along with my weekly adjustments. His followup emails after sessions describing exercises we had done, and what to do at home, are thoughtful and thorough. Would recommend to everyone! read more

Really good adjustment. Jason also teaches you great workout along with chiropractic service.

First visited Dr. Fidler in November with a tweaked lower back. A few short weeks later, after a series of visits and DIY stretches and exercises, I was back on the court better than ever. Recently visited again with a new ailment, and he had me back up and running in no time. Smart, kind, empathetic, and considerate, I have sent friends his way, knowing that his expertise, patience, relatability and bedside manner will save the day. Cannot recommend Functional Rehab highly enough. read more

I've been fielding a running injury for over a year now, and have tried adjusting my workout, physical therapy, the works. None of that worked nearly as well as my work with Jason, which has not only provided pain relief, but also education. After each session, I leave feeling better, with a plan for the week ahead that helps me build strength and avoid future injury. I couldn't recommend him more! read more

I had a great experience with Dr. Fidler and would highly recommend him. I came in for issues with my lower body and found that Dr. Fidler spent time to treat me holistically and guide me through the rehabilitation process to get me back to doing my favorite athletic activities. He provides one-on-one care and its always easy to get an appointment that fits into my schedule. read more

Been working with Dr. Fidler for a few months now, with no plan of stopping!! Knowledgable, communicative and easy to work with! Love the combo of adjustments, and targeted exercises :) read more

Dr. Fidler is amazing. His approach to chiropractic medicine goes far beyond relieving your immediate pain. He listens to your issues, asks clarifying questions and explains his diagnoses eloquently and thoroughly. After getting an adjustment, Dr. Fidler works with you to address the root cause of your pain by doing mobility and strength exercises so that you can maintain a healthy spine and avoid pain in the future. Beyond being excellent at his practice, he's fun to talk to and a very nice guy! Highly suggest Dr. Fidler if you are having any back, neck, or musculoskeletal issues! read more

I've had lower back pain for years that I was "managing" through a variety of stretches each morning, but it was never really solving the problem. After going to Jason for a few sessions and working on *strengthening* various muscle groups, I've seen a HUGE difference. I'm no longer in active pain, and I can see a clear path to returning to sport! read more

I have been going to Jason for help with persistent lower back issues. Not only has Jason got my pain under control , he has helped me in ways so that the pain doesn't return. I use to just live with a certain amount of discomfort that I would write off as "I'm just getting older". But Jason was able to show me that with proper mobility technique and regular stretching, I don't need to put up with any discomfort. I highly recommend his services. He has been a great help! read more

I cannot recommend Dr Fidler enough! I came to him with terrible headaches and neck pain and within 4 visits ( over a month) I am completely pain free with full mobility in my neck. He is incredibly attentive and really pays attention to all elements of your life style and habits that lead to the issue at hand. The PT was I credibly helpful in changing the small but significant habits that helped create the issues in the first place and give me the proper exercises and tools to relieve some of the issues myself. Very grateful to have found him! read more

I am so grateful to Dr. Fidler for his services! I was struggling with a lot of right shoulder pain (along with other mysterious aches and pains) and he not only offered therapeutic support to ease the symptoms but also taught me (and held me accountable to) exercises and practices to give me stability and avoid future injury. I saw him once a week for a few months and I always looked forward to our appointments as a time not only for some self-care but also to listen to great music and swap pictures of our respective pets. Dr. Fidler is a skilled and kind practitioner and I would be happy to recommend him to anyone! read more

I've struggled with sciatica and scoliosis since middle school & for many like myself, working from home has exacerbated the issue. In the past, I've been to chiro's that use a back roller machine, some heat, followed by your standard cracks. This simply does not compare to the experience you get with Dr. Fidler. He educated me on PT exercises & postural skills to alleviate long-term pain that we practice each session, provided at-home treatments like e-stim therapy & a lacrosse ball (which are a huge help for my pain), uses massage therapy tools like a theragun & understands the exact source of pain when he practices any cracking. Beyond his expertise, he's extremely caring & listens to his patients. I know I'm in good hands when I visit. He is the absolute best & I couldn't recommend him more! read more

I felt like I was falling apart physically about 6 years ago. My neck was hurting in such a way that I was in pain often. A friend of mine highly recommended Dr. Fidler and I took a chance. In the first ten minutes he made my neck feel 100% better with chiropractic adjustment. In addition, he took the remaining appointment time to show me exercises and stretches that have prevented that neck problem to this day. He's helped me with foot pain, hip pain, knee pain, and lower back pain, all of which have not returned [if they have, it's because I wasn't doing the regimen he recommended!] He's professional, a pleasure to be around, and he's improved my emotional state by improving my physical state! read more

My 15 year old son has been seeing Dr. Fidler for about 2 months now for persistent achilles tendonitis that he has struggled with for years. He has transformed my son's body to be much stronger and more resilient. The pain is almost non existent. Dr Fidler is an incredible partner and has a tremendous amount of knowledge. He has also helped me with some nerve issues. We are so grateful we found him and I strongly recommend him!! Dr Fidler is THE BEST!!! read more

I have been going to chiropractors since 2004 and had good and very bad experiences. Few months ago, I came to Jason with my back and neck problem, which I could not solve for a long time with other chiropractors. I feel my body reacts to his adjustments very well and he helps me a lot to get back my mobility and reduce headaches and discomfort. He cares, listens well and has a great knowledge of the body. I highly recommend him to anyone. read more

Sitting at a desk with no physical therapy from Dr. Fidler is the equivalent of torturing yourself into a slow and steady death. There are a lot of doctors out there who will provide you "crack" therapy with no explanation of the proper maintenance to keep the alignment. Dr. Fidler spends the time and effort to get to know you and your body and where you need work. He also takes notes on all of your progress and where you need work and has always been on top of it. 3 stars would be someone that's adequate. 4 for someone who goes above and beyond. 5 for someone who does all of that plus spends the time to understand what's ailing you and then create a plan based off the issues you're mentioning. If you have any body/muscular/bone issues, save yourself and go to Dr. Fidler. read more

I have been going to Dr. Fidler once a week for a few months now for general back discomfort and it has made a world of difference. Getting adjusted is the best way to end the week, especially during a work-from-home quarantine. I highly recommend Functional Rehab. read more

Found Dr. Fidler off yelp due to reviews for my dislocated shoulder. Dr. Fidler was very personable and friendly. When I was late, he called me to follow up. His hours are 9-5 work friendly, which is one thing that made me choose him. He was great and really helped me get back a lot of my range of motion in my shoulder with the few appointments with him. Definitely recommend! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Fidler for 3 years now and he has done wonders in helping me. I first came to him with a back issue after being in a biking accident, then he helped me with strength training and technique on certain matters. As a former competitive tennis player, finding a chiropractor that was sports focused was crucial for me. I have found it extremely difficult to find medical professionals here in New York that specifically focus on sports therapy/strength training, then walks in Dr. Fidler. You'll be hard-pressed to find someone else that is this good honestly. read more

Dr. Fidler made it obvious from the get-go that my back pain wasn't something he could just "fix" with an adjustment. It was going to require persistent, hard work on my part, doing the exercises and PT he assigned me. He made sure my form was right on every exercise and was always consistent in sending me a follow up email recapping what we went over. He was always sure to check in and see if I was comfortable doing the exercises without pain. The adjustments were nice and all, definitely helped loosen me up, but I think Dr. Fidler's emphasis on strengthening the body is key to making an excellent recovery. Thank you! read more

Dr. Fidler is your go to in the area for any injuries. He has helped me recover post surgery and manage herniated back problems simultaneously. Highly recommend his services as you get the proper attention and assessment that any patient needs and deserves. read more

Dr. Fidler is an amazing chiropractor and physical therapist! I genuinely look forward to our sessions. I appreciate how carefully he listens when I'm describing pain and mobility issues. He also provides really helpful and accessible education around what exactly is going on, so I can conceptualize the issue and integrate his solutions into my daily life. He's helped me significantly with day to day movement and we're working on long-term exercise goals, which I feel hopeful about for the first time in years. As a transgender person, I'm usually nervous to work with health/body practitioners of any kind at first, but Dr. Fidler is an affirmative doctor who is always open to learning more. I'd recommend Dr. Fidler to anyone seeking a PT! read more

As an Olympic athlete and future student of chiropractic medicine, I am very particular about who I see to keep me in "tip-top" shape. I can say, without a doubt, that Dr. Fidler runs one most thorough and enlightening practices I know. Within a few minutes of his assessment, he was able pinpointed some habits in my swimming as well as every day life that others have struggled witj. He takes time and invest in each individual as an athlete in the own specific lifestyle. Thorough, professional, concise! read more

I found Dr. Fidler after trying a revolving cast of traditional chiropractors, massage therapists, and physical therapists for chronic back and hip pain. My annoying insurance company had made it impossible for me to see my previous favorite PT in the city, but Dr. Fidler's fee structure was reasonable for paying out of pocket, especially considering the attention and level of care he gives patients. Dr. Fidler provides a great combination of chiropractic adjustments and manual therapy with movement re-education. He keeps you accountable and will NOT let you cheat during what can be really challenging exercises (and that's a good thing). I really appreciate that he's nothing like typical chiros in the city who will crack your back, put you on heat and stim for 20 mins, and ask you to come in 3x a week...forever. Over the past couple months of working together, he has shown me a number of helpful home exercises, I have become much more attentive to my posture, and my day-to-day pain is much improved. Worth every penny. read more

I came to Dr. Fidler because of lower back pain that has persisted on and off for about 5 years. I have been in and out of physical therapy and I was tired of constantly getting injured every couple of months, so I thought a different type of doctor may help. During my first session, within the first 20 minutes, while Dr. Fidler was giving me a physical evaluation, he diagnosed the root of the problem, which has never been mentioned by the several physical therapists that I have seen over the past 5 years. Over the past month, Dr. Fidler has given me exercises that are going to help me to maintain strength and flexibility so I can prevent further injuries. I am extremely impressed with his knowledge about how the body works. He knows a wide range of exercises to help with my injury. I'm also a person that asks tons of questions about my body and he is able to answer everything with ease. I have been to personal trainers before, and none of them have actually told me how to correctly do a squat. Dr. Fidler told me within the first session. He watches you very closely to make sure your form is correct and demonstrates everything for you first. He is able to push you to your limit without going too far, and makes you feel confident in your abilities. I have never been to a chiropractor before, but Dr. Fidler has exceeded all of my expectations. I had no idea what to expect and was a little nervous coming in at first. He made sure to talk me through all of his adjustments and instantly created a warm, friendly environment. Besides him giving me adjustments that make my body feel great, he is helping me to fix all of the weak areas of my body. He sends me follow up emails with everything that we did in our session and also includes videos incase I forget. I have never had any physical therpists send me detailed emails like this, with videos attached. He is also always available through email if I have any questions or concerns. I am beyond grateful that I have found Dr. Fidler. Within the first couple of sessions, I am already starting to feel stronger and more confident in my abilities. His adjustments have helped my body to feel more open and less immobile and the exercises that he has given me have helped me feel more powerful and in control of my body. I highly recommend Dr. Fidler to anyone who is in any sort of pain. Oh, and as an added bonus, he has wonderful taste in music and a great sense of humor! read more

Dr Fidler is always extremely helpful and clear in explaining what is causing pain or physical discomfort. He always does a great follow up by email, complete with videos and written instructions. Highly recommended! read more

I have been seeing Dr Fidler for a few months now and have made great progress dealing with longstanding neck and upper back pain as well as tight quads and a sprained hamstring. My injuries are from a combo of bad posture + poor movement while doing crossfit. He does an excellent job of treating pain, assessing what's causing the pain, and then giving you the tools to move better, stretch, mobilize, etc to stay out of pain. His services have been of huge value to me, and I would highly recommend him. read more

I first visited Jason a little over a year ago for back pain that was unbearable but had lived with for many years. Little did I know that he'd become an instrumental part in helping my entire body overcoming whatever life throws at me. From back spasms to neck and shoulder pain, he can always squeeze me in within a day (he stayed late to see me one day due to my pain) and takes care of the pain in one session. He's extremely knowledgeable in his field and I love his individual approach to aiding you in your needs. While other places have given me a print out of typical exercises and stretches I can do, Jason goes above and beyond and emails you very targeted exercises to practice till the next time you meet. I've always thought I had good form while performing exercises, but Jason is so tuned in to your body that he can spot the smallest shifts, making all the difference. He's got a great personality and I always enjoy my time there. Wether you're dealing with lifelong issues that you've just accepted as your way of life, or wake up with pain (due to a toddler kicking you on the side) do yourself a favor and visit Jason. He's like the 6th or 7th chiropractor/PT doc I had visited in my lifetime and while others concluded that my back pain was due to my genetic structure, he didn't. He understood what I had to do to build the muscle groups around my back muscles and I've never felt better. read more
