  • Sports Massage Therapist | Functional Fitness Trainer (NASM Certified)

    With over 30 years of experience, Mike Recicar has dedicated his career to helping athletes recover, rebuild, and reach peak performance. His approach integrates sports massage therapy and functional fitness training to restore balance, stability, and mobility throughout the body.

    Mike specializes in assessing and correcting muscular imbalances caused by the physical demands of training and competition. Through muscle testing and detailed movement assessments—in person or via video—he identifies dominant and underactive muscle groups to restore alignment, reduce pain, and prevent injury.

    “A tight muscle will pull a joint into a dysfunctional position, and a weak muscle will allow it to happen.”

    Mike’s individualized programs enhance performance through evidence-based movement, strength development, and recovery strategies that support the primary and secondary muscle systems essential for each athlete’s sport or activity. His passion lies in helping athletes of all levels move better, perform stronger, and sustain long-term health and performance.
