OUR STORY

+ Our Company History

Humble Beginnings

Michael Marrera, a New York native, born and raised in Queens where he began Breaking (breakdancing) at an early age. Shortly thereafter, his breaking in the streets turned into a love for all things physical! Fast forward to thirteen years of professional dancing under his belt, he then became a certified personal trainer and license massage therapist, and was ready to share his passion with the world.

These experiences led him to discover his ultimate passion. It was the collective experiences of all his passions - it was the freedom of MOVEMENT! Michael was certain there was a better solution to what was currently available. Seeing things differently from the industry norm. He opened his first private clinic location in the heart of Astoria, New York as the exclusive provider of Movementologist, creating a space where he could service his personal clients and spread awareness of a healthier way of moving.

+ Mission

A Company with Purpose

Movementologist is focused on helping individuals live pain free and move at their full potential.

We’re in a constant pursuit to educate people on the benefits of listening to their body to avoid future injuries and eliminate the daily wear and tear it endures. Our goal is squarely set on the wellness of each person.

We believe keeping up with life shouldn’t be an obstacle to fulfilling your potential. By constantly pushing the boundaries of our orthopedic sports recovery system and treating individual cases as effectively as possible, we are improving an industry that, for too long, has been stuck in trying to fix complex problems with one dimensional fixes. We’re set to showing people that it is possible.
