Your first visit centers on an accurate diagnosis, because effective treatment depends entirely on getting that right. For muscle & tendon therapy, treatment is staged: calm the symptoms first, restore normal function next, then build the strength that keeps the problem from returning. We keep Chelsea patients informed at every step, with clear goals and honest timelines. The trip is just 12 minutes from Chelsea.
Chelsea's workforce in construction, food service, and manual trades experiences high rates of occupational injury. We welcome all patients regardless of background or language. If any of that sounds familiar, you're far from alone. These everyday demands are exactly what turns a minor ache into a persistent problem when they go unaddressed, and they're a big part of why a local, individualized approach works better than generic advice.

Dr. Bromberg uses Active Release Technique, a patented movement-based system that targets damaged or restricted soft tissue. By applying tension while the patient moves through specific ranges of motion, adhesions break down, scar tissue releases, and normal function returns to muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves.
