TESTIMONIALS 

Sue Carmenaty of Brick, NJ says, “I found MAT Specialist Christopher Verdi after almost two years of chronic tendonitis in my left hip.  I arrived desperate and frustrated but also with a healthy dose of skepticism wondering was MAT really the answer since nothing else seemed to provide the relief I needed.  After the first visit and to my amazement, I received complete relief in an area that plagued me with tightness and pain, and with each additional visit there was a noticeable improvement in the other areas as my hip and my body continues to benefit and heal, regaining strength and flexibility. The morning after my 5th visit, I felt like a different person - there was no pain, discomfort or tightness.  What 7 Dr's visits, several bottles of Rx meds, a couple of Cortisone shots and 79 physical therapy visits could not accomplish in 20 months - Chris accomplished in a little over a month (about a half dozen visits) with his MAT techniques!  Chris is careful, thoughtful and purposeful in his application of MAT.  His humble spirit and fantastic studio environment are just icing on the cake!  Chris and MAT are the real deal and a powerful combination. Next, I plan to use Chris for his personal training services to ensure my workouts are effective and without fear of re-injury.  I only wish I had found Chris sooner!”

 

From 30 to 300 miles...that is what Chris Verdi helped me to attain with MAT.  Long distance cyclist, Dave Shoemaker of Neptune, NJ says, “I am a long distance cyclist and I was preparing for a new season. I was able to ride further than ever this year in France because of MAT.  As I started riding, my previous injuries were hindering my training. I started to think I could avoid them and they would go away.  Well maybe not because avoiding them made it worse!

After getting the run around from physical therapy, Chris was recommended to me.  Time was closing in on me. I only had a few weeks to train for my first of four qualifying rides to go to France.  All I was capable of doing was around 30 miles before pain took over and I would have to get off the bike. The week before my first qualifier I had a break through after a few MAT sessions!  I could now go beyond my previous efforts while being pain-free.

So, the next week I did my first qualifier of 125 miles in hilly terrain.  I succeeded in that and the rest of my necessary rides to make it to France for the special event. It was there that in a 24 hour time period I rode my bicycle 300 miles the first day of the event.  It was with Chris’ help and a handful of visits that made this goal possible.  He helped restore balance and strength to my body.”

 

College athlete, 21 year old Trey Taylor of Wall Township, NJ says, “MAT was the answer to my problems.  In 2007, I had a laminectomy and I wasn’t recovering after my surgery.  My left hip stuck out awkwardly and the pain was excruciating in my lower back and leg.  I couldn’t do daily activities such as sit, stand, or drive without pain.  I knew I was too young to be using a cane!  When I first came to Core Restore, my spine looked like a question mark, and after one session with Christopher, I could tell a difference by increased circulation in my leg, no more pins and needles.  After three months of MAT, I am now driving, sitting, and standing without pain and I continue to get stronger everyday. The progress I have made in these short months has been nothing short of a miracle for me.  Some doctors told me that my leg would never function normally again, but MAT was the turning point in my recovery.  Christopher focused on my muscular system and the way my muscular system supports my joints and skeletal system.  That is what made the difference in my recovery process.”

 

Mother of Trey Taylor, Julie Taylor of Wall Township, NJ says, “Chris Verdi owner of Core Restore, Inc. operates a unique method of restoring inactive muscles.  This well proven method is up and coming in our country.  Following back surgery, my son and I both tried physical therapy, chiropractic care, etc.  MAT offered at Core Restore was a dream comes true for us.  Thanks to Chris my 21 year-old son can walk upright and without pain.  Chris is genuinely interested in his client's well-being and health.  He is dedicated and sincere.”

 

Avid surfer and snowboarder, Jennifer Baker of Bradley Beach, NJ stated, “Due to numerous injuries, two broken collarbones and a hip that used to go out of the socket, I was unable to reach my left arm over my head.  I would have to put my hip back in manually from just walking around.  After a few months of MAT employed by Chris Verdi, I am running three miles a day and surfing as if I had never been injured.  I have the strength, energy and metabolism that I used to because of the increased circulation to my muscles.  My body’s ability to heal itself is as if I was 20 years old again.  Thank you so much Chris!” 

 

Entrepreneur of Pearl Advisory Partners, Jennifer Crews of Ocean Grove, NJ states, “Chris Verdi is a MAT Specialist which means he helps his clients become pain-free by making sure all of the muscles in their bodies are working properly.  I was under chiropractic care for 12 years for headaches and while that helped it didn’t cure the problem.  It wasn’t until I started seeing Chris in January of 2008 that my headache problem was completely addressed.  I have been headache free for at least 7 months!  I have become an evangelist for MAT because this treatment was so critical for me.”

 

Retired school teacher, Maria Napolitano of Ocean, NJ, says, MAT has greatly improved my mobility and general well-being.  After my first session lower back pain was gone.  Shoulder pain and knee pain are among other ailments that have also been helped by this procedure.  I have experienced increased range of motion which is another benefit.  I recently learned that this type of therapy can be beneficial to those with CHF (Chronic Heart Failure) because this condition causes the muscles to break down and the disease prevents patients from regular exercise.  This alternative therapy could help many area residents experience a non-invasive, drug-free option for muscle health.”

 

Photographer and screenwriter Marnie Mitchell-Lister of Spring Lake Heights, NJ says, “I first went to see Chris I had a laundry list of problems.  After two problematic pregnancies resulting in two c-sections, I ended up with severe back pain due to a herniated disc.  I have endometriosis, which also contributes to my lower back pain.  I was diagnosed with Lyme disease six years ago, but it went undiagnosed for a year, which made the symptoms worse.  All these things added together equal years of living with chronic pain.  After my second visit with Chris, my back pain had become almost non-existent.  I find I have more energy then I’ve had in a decade, I sleep better, I’m not as tense and I’m actually able to exercise.  MAT and Chris Verdi have improved my quality of life so dramatically in such a short time. Thank you so much!”

 

Educator and Reiki Master, Colleen Cheung of Demarast, NJ says, “I have to say that he has helped me tremendously with my rehabilitation.  After breaking my leg in June I started muscle activation therapy.  For the last three months I have been receiving sessions at least twice a week.  The progress I have seen is far better than that of physical therapy.  I am walking without a limp and almost back to normal with my range of motion.  As the only MAT Specialist on the Jersey Shore, Chris and his business are truly unique.  It is a great treasure in the city of Asbury Park.  It seems that many people are still unfamiliar with this new cutting edge physical rehabilitation therapy.  Core Restore has made such a positive impact on my life.”
