Spring Back Physical Therapy
Spring Back Physical Therapy was created for gymnasts by a gymnast. Our goal is to improve the longevity of athletic careers while promoting health and wellness outside of the sport, and for life after sport. Take advantage of our prehabilitation and rehabilitation services to prevent injury, or in the case of injury, return to gymnastics safely.

Melanie Bernocco, PT, DPT
Melanie’s love for the sport inspired her to pursue a career in physical therapy. In 2021, she completed her Doctorate of Physical Therapy at Stony Brook University and began her career in Outpatient Orthopedics. Now, Melanie is taking her knowledge and applying it to the gymnastics world in an effort to decrease injury rates, increase participation in the sport, and improve the functional strength that will benefit gymnasts during and after they retire from sport.
