“Jhancarlos has been my personal trainer for over 6 months. The first several weeks, he made sure to evaluate and observe my posture and movements before designing a workout regimen for me. He stressed mobilization/flexibility were key. At the time, I was going to a practice where I was receiving physical therapy and chiropractic services. Everything Jhancarlos pinpointed and suggested my Chiropractor and Physical Therapist agreed. We continue to work on mobility and stretching in my workouts. He thoroughly explains the exercises so that I’ve learned to also do them on my own. It’s not as intimidating as it once used to be. I recently went to the doctor, was measured twice, and to my surprise, had grown an inch! Not only do I physically feel better but my self-esteem and confidence has increased to a much higher level. Jhancarlos is a professional and an expert in his field and I highly recommend you to invest your time, body and mind to his training. Trust, you will not regret it!”

“I was having an issue with an elevated first rib, neck pain and an body alignment. In one session, Jhancarlos adjusted my alignment so much I can visibly see the difference in the before and after pictures we took. He helped loosen the muscles on the right side of back and my shoulder, relieving my neck pain and lowering my first rib. In the first session with Jhancarlos, I saw more results than the several sessions I had with the physical therapist I was seeing. The advice Jhancarlos gave me helped me to go on my own and continue my rehab and has gotten me almost back to 100%. I’m looking forward to going for a few more sessions with him to complete rehab. I strongly recommend Jhancarlos – you will not be disappointed. ”

“Jhancarlos is an excellent trainer and massage therapist. He targets problem areas so well that I noticed an immediate difference even after one session. I had a lot of problems particularly with the left side of my body and would have issues completing certain exercise routines at the gym. For over a year, I had no idea why I would constantly get injured or feel pain on the left side of my body. After going to Jhancarlos, he was able to determine what muscles I was having the most issues with and targeted those areas with massages and stretches. I no longer have pain in the problem areas and feel much better resuming my gym routines. Jhancarlos is very knowledgeable about the body and is able to help with muscle tightness, soreness, etc. He will even give you exercises to do on your own so that you can be able to work on the problem areas when you can’t schedule a session with him. He is great to talk to and will really listen to your needs so that he is able to help with the areas that are giving you the most problem. He is amazing at what he does and I would definitely recommend you try a session so you can see the results for yourself.”

“I can’t thank Jhancarlos enough for helping me regain confidence at the gym and alleviating so much discomfort I was having in my lower back. Early in 2016, after having had a previous weigh trainer in 2014, I began having more issues with sciatica in my lower back, discouraging me from getting to the gym and pushing myself. My previous trainer recommended Jhancarlos, explaining he could help me with a more disciplined, corrective routine and approach to my workouts. This began with lots of emphasis on corrective stretching, posture and very low resistance exercises always focused on core and glutes. I began feeling the results immediately. Today most of my workout is dedicated to a solid cardio warm up routine and a series of stretch routines and exercises that are focused on core, glutes, form and stretching.”

“Jhancarlos is by far the best massage therapist I’ve found. He was amazing and had great knowledge of sports therapy. He’s also a trainer, so he knows how to treat you if you have an injury or tight and sore muscles. ”

“As a dancer with good body awareness, I was always a little skeptical of personal trainers and was not sure what they could offer someone who was already motivated and physically fit. However, I decided to give Jhancarlos a try after he correctly assessed muscular imbalances in my body from years of dance training with only a cursory glance. After our first session, I knew this was going to be different. Jhancarlos incorporated massage into our session to release muscles I didn’t even know were restricting certain movements, given that the surrounding muscles were so flexible. I now consider him my body guru and work with him to improve my performance in dance, but also to resolve minor injuries more quickly and to prevent future injuries by improving the balance of strength and flexibility in all of my muscles. ”

“I first met Jhancarlos as a massage therapist. I had limited mobility in my shoulders and my neck was very tight. Highly experienced and using a variety of techniques drawing from both Western and Eastern traditions, he was able to provide profound relief in just 45 minutes. At the end of the session, he gave me several exercises to do at home and suggested I start a regimen combining physical exercise and muscle massage therapy. Impressed by his capabilities and warm personality, I started working with him as a personal trainer twice a week in Manhattan. I have worked in two different independent gyms/studios with him. Within three weeks I could notice a distinct difference in my body! Jhancarlos is an extremely gifted and proficient physical trainer and massage therapist who will custom design corrective workouts for your body – focusing on strengthening those areas that can improve your overall well-being and addressing the muscular causes of pain and tension. I look forward to every session as he thoughtfully designs new combinations of exercises and workouts for me each time, continuously building upon my progress and creating new challenges. He also suggests homework for in between sessions, but is always kind and understanding about the unavoidable demands of work and life. Jhancarlos is astoundingly knowledgeable about the human anatomy and able to isolate minute muscles for particular attention and healing. As a professional whose mission is to help people feel better; move more in alignment; be more fit; and reduce both stress and pain, Jhancarlos is incredibly generous with all kinds of information ranging from nutrition to strategies for healing to suggestions for leading a less stressful life. He is a gem in the bodywork and movement field, and working with Jhancarlos is an investment I cannot recommend highly enough. ”
