FunctionSmart – The Athlete’s Wellness Group

FunctionSmart is the performance training division of University City Physical Therapy. It is designed for those pre and post rehab clients who demand optimal peak performance. Our advanced training, knowledge and experience allow us to analyze biomechanics of movement and formulate a unique program of corrective exercises, neuromuscular functional training, dynamic flexibility and Active Release Techniques® (ART®). We get results quickly for every client.

Based on an in-depth knowledge of biomechanics, we assess components of movement that may inhibit performance and lead to injuries. We then are able to isolate and treat any restrictive adhesions within the soft tissue using ART®. Once adhesions and barriers to movement are removed, we then incorporate functional training, proprioceptive re-education, core stabilization and dynamic flexibility to teach the body to work as one efficient unit.

Whether you are a competitive athlete or a proud weekend warrior, we have the advanced training and skills to resolve your movement pattern dysfunctions so that you can return to your training quickly.

We now offer ongoing Computrainer Multirider classes with coach and pro triathlete Mac Brown.  Mac not only races professionally but is also the head coach of the UCSD triathlon team.  His race highlights include 4 x USA Triathlon Triathlon All-American and 2 x Inside Triathlon All American.  He has also qualified for and raced the Ironman World Championship in Kona, HI.  Mac is a USAT certified Triathlon Coach and looks forward to helping the clients of UCPT and FunctionSmart achieve their training and racing goals.
