5 stars across the board for Matt and his boutique style practice at Tropic Athlete. I have been dealing with debilitating migraines for most of my life and I am happy to say I am now feeling close to symptom free after working with him. He also significantly changed my approach to an old meniscus tear and how I train lower body. If you are looking for a hands on , one on one approach with a waterfront view, he's your guy!

I was struggling with IT band issues for few years and it was impacting my running and causing back issues. Dr. Martin was able to help me understand where the issue was coming from. We created a plan to strengthen weakened muscles over 6 months. My back pain is gone and feel much stronger than before. I highly recommend making getting a consult.

Dr. Martin has been a game changer in my life. I have suffered with back pain for over 15 years. I've been to various chiropractors who I see for a few minutes and then they move along to the next patient. Dr. Martin was the first professional to spend quality time with me in order to truly understand my back problems. He helped me understand the triggers that lead to my debilitating pain, which was something no one has ever done for me. He explained why I have been suffering and developed a plan to help me. He gave the strategies to prevent the pain through exercises that I can do at home and spends time with me to ensure I am doing the exercises properly. Dr. Martin wanted to hear about my daily activities and his insight, from the type of office furniture I use, to how I load my washer/dryer has helped me function at work and at home. I am very grateful and forever thankful I found him. Dr. Martin cares and takes the time to understand the needs of those he serves. I can't recommend him enough.

Dr. Matt is a true lifesaver! I came to him struggling with hip pain that made it impossible to work out, golf, or play pickleball. As someone who drives a lot for work, I found it excruciating to get out of the car due to the pain. In just two months under Dr. Matt’s care, I’m back to enjoying all three activities pain-free. I’m incredibly grateful for his expertise and highly recommend him to anyone seeking exceptional physical therapy. Thank you, Dr. Matt!

I had my 7th knee surgery about a year and a half ago and was not progressing with my recovery how I was hoping. I reached out to Matt with Tropic Athlete and wow am I glad I did! He is extremely knowledgeable and genuinely invested in my recovery. He knew exactly how to tailor my treatment given my history. I’m now doing things that I wasn’t able to do just a few months ago. Even after our sessions I’ve continued to utilize the tools and exercises he tailored to me. Feeling stronger and more confident in my abilities everyday. Highly recommend!

What if I've tried PT before and it didn't work?

Many of our clients felt the same way before coming to us. The difference is in the approach—longer sessions, individualized plans, and a focus on building long-term resilience instead of quick fixes.
