Specialized physical therapy to get you back on the mat ASAP


Why choose Back on the Mat PT?

We all know that injuries in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) and combat sports are inevitable. And we also know that nothing feels more urgent than getting back to training. Dr. Andy Moon knows this because he’s been there—multiple neck strains, turf toe, torn elbow ligament (from an arm bar, naturally), and even shoulder surgery. But Andy has been able to return to 100% training and competition after injury. How? A focus on recovery, prevention, and performance.

Andy will work with you to help you recover from your injury, prevent future injuries, and perform effectively on the mat. So if you’re a combat athlete, reach out and let’s get started.

Client Testimonials

  • “I’ve been training in Judo and BJJ for the past 12 years. As an active 45 year old and practitioner of grappling arts, I’ve had my fair share of injuries as well as lingering aches and pains. I’ve come to appreciate the importance of finding a good physical therapist for both rehab and also tips on injury prevention. As a BJJ practitioner himself, Andy is well suited to offer therapy for grapplers backed by first-hand knowledge in grappling. He’s passionate about his work, knowledgeable but also easy to talk to and down to earth. I know this from my own experience of being treated by him. Check him out!” - Dwight Y

  • “After slipping down a set of stairs, arms and legs flailing, blurting out profanities – I thought I fared pretty well. I tried some physical therapy my doctor referred me to. No luck. I was anxious to get surfing again, but paddling was not something I could do without significant pain – let alone the contortions needed for getting into and out of a wetsuit. Andy saved the day. First off, he makes house calls, which is enormously convenient. He took the time to diagnose my shoulder (impingement) and went to work with some cupping therapy and exercises. It's no picnic, but he pushed me to fix this ailment. He's a good listener and you can tell he's a master of his craft. I'm back in the water and so grateful for Andy!” - Sean B

  • “I have been coaching my son’s soccer team and developed a pain in my left Achilles every time I ran practice. It prevented me from running and going up and down stairs comfortably the next day. I went to Andy and he quickly diagnosed that my injury was most likely due to my use of soccer cleats and the shift in force and weight that was occurring while wearing them. He introduced me to cupping, walked me through exercises and stretches, and since then I have not had this issue. As long as I follow his regimen, I no longer have the pain.” - Andy W
