Barbell Therapy and Performance

I went to Mez for right hip pain after training for a powerlifting competition, and was having pain at lock-out. The pain even started change my form. He figured out my issue in the 1st visit, and was able to hit a PR on deadlift 3 weeks after seeing him. My pain is much better now, and I have much more stability in my right hip. You will be hard-pressed to find a better physical therapist than Ramez in the entire South Jersey region. He is highly recommended.

I can honestly say that my body would be a wreck without Ramez’s unique expertise and professional PT services. He takes the time to address your specific diagnosis, lifestyle, and goals to create an individualized rehab plan that delivers amazing results. I received his services after breaking my arm, which is fully recovered. He helped me overcome neck and back pain that ensued following that injury. Years later I injured my back while training for a half marathon and he created a plan to improve my pain and coach me through the rest of my training to get me to achieve my goal time on race day, pain free. Ramez is amazing, hands down. He dedicates his time and energy to PT and empowering people to be the best version of themselves, mind and body. He takes a different approach. This is not cookie cutter treatment. If you are considering Ramez’s services, just do it.

Dr. Ramez Antoun is extremely knowledgeable in his field and his personable approach sets him apart. He helped me recover from a debilitating back injury without the prescription pain medication and potential surgery that my primary physician wanted for me. He addressed my issues by correcting my habits and providing great insight into functional movement. After recovering, I have continued to use this program as part of my daily workout routine. He has also helped me adjust my personal plan to address new goals and enhance my performance as I set new targets. I would highly recommend Dr. Ramez for his experience, knowledge, and moreover for his personal approach that connects the dots between the science and movement. I look forward to continue training with him.

Ramez is a top notch PT and coach! He was extremely thorough in evaluating my daughter starting with her medical history down to her functional movement patterns. As a PT myself, he helped me with a deeper understanding of why she had difficulty with certain movements. He followed up with a detailed assessment and videos of her home exercises, along with cues as to what she should be feeling when doing her exercises. This really helped her brain make sense of what muscles should be engaged. He is an enthusiastic PT, teacher and coach and I highly recommend him!

I came to Barbell Therapy after a year of dealing with wretched lower back pain from a snowboarding accident that was making it impossible to do the activities I enjoyed such as tennis and golf and at times even just being so bad that I was resigned to the couch. Not operating off of any assumptions, Ramez did a thorough evaluation and put together a detailed program that involved sessions with him twice a week and at home workouts. He is very hands on and can explain difficult anatomical concepts in layman terms. I noticed a difference within a month and a huge difference within three months. At this point my lower back ceases to be a daily problem, and whenever I have relapses, which are rare, I am generally able to recover quickly with rest and falling back on these foundational core strengthening exercises. Highly recommend!
