We Have Experienced Clinicians
Eric Brummer, PT, CHT, studied exercise physiology at Kean College and worked in the fitness industry as a fitness director and ACE certified personal trainer before changing careers. He graduated valedictorian of the Kean/UMDNJ physical therapy program class of 1995.
 
Eric is an innovative thinker and applied this talent toward working out new methods of treating patients with spinal disc injuries. In 2001, he was granted a patent from the US patent and trademark office for a new device for treating herniated and bulging discs. Eric has also devised a comprehensive program, Scolio-Therapy, for treating children with idiopathic scoliosis. His techniques show excellent promise for slowing the progression, arresting, or reversing spinal curves.
 
In 2002, Eric became a certified hand therapist. Certified hand therapists are experts in treating the hand and upper extremity, including, but not limited to, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow and shoulder injuries. In 2003, he opened his own practice.
CHIROPRACTIC AT F.I.T. PHYSIOTHERAPY

YOU WILL RECEIVE PERSONAL ATTENTION 
We pride ourselves on providing thorough, compassionate, individualized care for each of our patients. Unlike some physical therapy clinics, we do not use cookie-cutter protocols. We are well-aware that each patient is an individual and is best served by personalized, one-on-one attention. Your case will be managed by one of our experienced clinicians. Patients will not show up at our facility not knowing who will provide treatment for them that day.
Team Effort
PHYSICAL THERAPY 
F.I.T. PhysioTherapy provides the most thorough, personalized, sophisticated physical therapy anywhere. Our care is directed by an experienced therapist who is way ahead of the field. Patients are treated with the latest techniques, often developed by our director, using state-of-the-art equipment. Personalized attention is given to each patient and their specific needs. When necessary, skilled professionals from other disciplines are consulted to deliver the finest care available.
HAND THERAPY 
The human hand is so complex that it is the only body part in physical and occupational therapy that offers a recognized national specialty, Certified Hand Therapist (CHT). The requirements and licensing test are grueling, and weed out many of the applicants. We have a PT that is also a CHT who provides therapy for our hand and upper extremity patients. He uses state-of-the-art equipment, including cold laser, custom splints, taping, hydro-stim therapy, paraffin wax, ultrasound, fluidotherapy, and more, to help all types of upper extremity injuries.
GRASTON TECHNIQUE
Graston Technique is effective for all soft tissue conditions, whether they are chronic, acute or post-surgical. It employs the use of metal instruments in the application of soft tissue treatment. Graston decreases treatment time, promotes faster rehabilitation and recovery, reduces the need for anti-inflammatory medication, and resolves chronic conditions thought to be permanent. Eric Brummer, PT, is a Graston practitioner, and Greg Doerr, DC, is a Graston instructor.
MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH 
In addition to physical therapy, F.I.T. PhysioTherapy also offers pain management by board certified anesthesiologists, custom brace fabrication by a licensed P&O with 38 years of experience, and massage therapy. We also network with other doctors from other disciplines including neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, neurology, psychiatry, internal medicine, and podiatry. Our practitioners incorporate complementary skills and years of experience to provide the highest level of patient care.
