The Full Story
Jocson Physical Therapy & Training is a hybrid physical therapy and personal training practice located in Clermont, Florida. It is the expression of the Living Dream of Michael Jocson from his many years of experience working both as a physical therapist and personal trainer since 1996. Early in his career, Michael observed the majority of his physical therapy patients experienced greater positive results as their general physical fitness improved; and even before he became a physical therapist, he observed many people who exercise and/or lift weights would eventually experience some form of non-contact injuries or pain symptoms.....from their training. Ironically, in the conventional physical therapy world, the benefits of physical fitness is understood and yet rarely executed effectively with basic strength & conditioning principles as applied to physical rehabilitation significantly lacking. And on the other end of the spectrum, many within the fitness profession have a basic idea on how to "not hurt" their Clients, and yet many lack an understanding of basic rehabilitation principles such as the effect of load, volume, frequency, form/technique, recovery, functional anatomy, and neuromuscular patterning on soft tissue tolerance and capacity. So thus was born the JOCSON TREAT & TRAIN PROGRAM, which is a bridge of the best of both worlds of Physical Therapy and Training.
Since moving to Clermont, Florida from New York City in 2021, Michael is Creating a new practice with an emphasis on "top shelf", high quality care, empowering each Patient and Client with the Potential of being their own best "Therapist & Trainer" where he addresses the whole individual rather than the localized physical symptom.
