Dr. Louis Fierro Get Back to Doing What You Love
Live with Less Pain
Evidence-based Approach Prevents Musculoskeletal and Soft Tissue Injuries
Dr. Louis E. Fierro, D.C., is a Manual Soft Tissue Specialist and
Corrective Exercise Professional:
For the past 20 years, I’ve helped thousands of patients with a wide
range of acute and chronic soft tissue injuries. I can help you improve
your performance levels no matter what your field of play is. I apply
evidence-based treatments and a holistic approach to improving your
overall well-being. I provide specialized care for everyone from elite level
professional athletes, collegiate athletes and aspiring youth athletes to
deconditioned weekend warriors and corporate employees.
Typical conditions I correct include
neck, shoulder, lower back, hip, knee, foot and ankle issues.
What would it mean to you and your loved ones if you were living a pain-free life?
•
Does your daughter or son want to perform at their peak athletic
performance level and prevent sport injuries from occurring?
•
Would your life be improved by losing 15 to 30 pounds and finally keeping it off,
potentially eliminating aches, pains, and stiffness?
•
Do you want to avoid becoming dependent on harmful prescription medications
and prevent a surgical intervention from being your only option?
•
Do you simply want to perform daily tasks, like putting on
your socks and shoes pain-free?
Are you aware that your back, shoulder and neck pain can be stemming
from your old foot, ankle, knee or hip injury? I correct these structural
imbalances and help EMPOWER YOU to take control of the future YOU!
You need to become an active participant in YOUR personalized healthcare platform and
stop relying on the passive approach healthcare model.
I will help you make the necessary structural body corrections and identify your specific
KPIs — Key Performance Indicators.
YOUR PERSONALIZED HEALTH PLAN INCLUDES:
Personalized Corrective Strengthening/Stretching Program: These specific exercises and
stretches will ensure you receive lasting effects from my focused soft tissue treatments.
Hydration: I will teach you how and when to drink adequate water to keep your fascia (soft
tissue) moist and supple.
Anti-Inflammatory Diet: Inflammation = pain! Certain foods trigger inflammation in your
fascia, and you’ll learn how to avoid them.
Supplements: To support your soft tissue and gut health.
It’s easy to take the next step:
I completely understand it’s a scary thing to deviate from our comfort zone — even when
there is pain associated with that zone. I am here to help you!
Please feel free to contact me directly to discuss your specific healthcare needs. I have
offices in Bedford Hills and Midtown Manhattan. We can also schedule an initial consultation
in the comfort of your own home.

A grueling schedule with the likes of Garden City and New Ca-
naan along with the normal Section 1 powerhouses like Yorktown
and Bronxville, has prepared John Jay for another sectional run.
“I think it’s just been magical, honestly, with the way we’ve been
able to play against some of the top teams in the country,” Wierl
said. “It hasn’t been yet for a full game that we were able to stay with
some of the better programs. But yes, without a doubt, I believe that
we had the most challenging schedule in the section and rightfully

PHOTOS: ROB DIANTONIO Our vision with the Travel program at John Jay Futbol Club is to create a positive environment in line with our Club
Values, that promotes players being able to learn soccer and experiment with different skills and decisions without
fear of failure. We want to develop foundational skills and game understanding around being able to love and
master the ball as well as develop creative thinking.
Our Club Curriculum is designed to support the development of “Self-Learners” and “Independent-thinking Soccer
players” through a challenge and game-based approach to teaching soccer. This is consistently aligned with how we
describe each age-group within the Club how we compete on a Match-day in the WYSL (Westchester Youth Soccer
League) or in the NYSC (New York State Cup) and WC (Westchester Cup) and support players across all pathways.
