My name is Marcy Frederico and I have over 20 years of clinical experience.  In addition to being a Physical Therapist, I am also a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and have extensive experience in the areas of vestibular rehabilitation, balance and fall prevention, pelvic health, geriatric rehabilitation, orthopedics, and neurological rehabilitation, and am a Certified Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist (PCES).

​

I started Total Care Physical Therapy and Wellness because I knew there had to be a better way to deliver care. I became frustrated with the current model of physical therapy, where therapists do the evaluation and then hand treatment off to an assistant.  Treating multiple patients at once made it impossible to provide the individualized attention my patients deserved.  Physical therapy sessions are one on one for a full hour, allowing me to treat the "whole" person, and provide the best level of care possible to you. 

​

  ​I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and help you meet your goals. My goal is to provide you with excellent care and truly listen to your issues at hand, to help you reach your highest potential.

​

On a personal level, I am a native Jersey girl and attended the University of Delaware (Go Blue Hens!) where I received my biology degree.  During my freshman year, I was involved in a very serious car accident and suffered a concussion, numerous rib fractures, and a shattered wrist and ankle.  I received physical therapy for several months and after experiencing how helpful it was, decided to pursue it as a career.  I then completed the physical therapy program at Hahnemann/Drexel University in Philadelphia, moved down to the sunshine state a few months later, and the rest is history!   

 

Staying active is a great passion of mine and I enjoy running, cycling, softball, tennis, weight training, good food, traveling, and have completed 7 marathons.  As an aging athlete who has had my own share of injuries, I totally understand the strong desire to return to sports and activity, and embrace the challenge to help you meet your own goals.   I strongly believe that one's lifestyle determines their true age, and that we should not put limits on what we can achieve!
