Chris is the founder of Raising the Bar Rehabilitation and Fitness. Chris earned his physical therapy degree from Kean University/UMDNJ in 1998 and he has been practicing Orthopedic and Sports Physical Therapy for his entire career. Since opening Raising the Bar, Chris and the staff have established the "Walk- Safe" balance and fall prevention program, aimed at helping seniors in the community to avoid injuries that could be sustained from losing balance and falling.
Chris' introduction to the world of physical therapy occurred when he sustained 2 serious knee injuries while playing high school football. Chris often refers to these injuries as "blessings in disguise" as these injuries would prove to shape his career path in life and enable him to work in a profession that he truly loves. Many people in the local community also remember Chris portraying the crazy professional wrestling character "Crowbar" for Ted Turner's WcW from 1999 - 2001.
Chris still continues to wrestle locally for what he claims is "his own entertainment".

Services
We are proud to offer our "Walk Safe" balance and fall prevention program for individuals experiencing unsteadiness while walking, frequent loss of balance, or who have experienced a fall or multiple falls.
According to the Center for Disease Control, each year one in every three adults age 65 or older will fall.
Falls can cause moderate to severe injuries, such as hip fractures and head injuries, and can increase the risk of early death.
Fortunately, falls are preventable.
Patients attending Walk Safe sessions will attend 2-3 times per week and participate in a number of activities designed to improve the patient's balance and safety awareness in the home and the community.
