Furnace Brook PT offers its deepest condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of Dr. Lyle Micheli following his recent passing. Dr. Micheli was a true visionary and leader in the field of pediatric orthopedics and for decades was at the forefront of advocacy for advanced research and enhanced access to care for his patient population. While providing the pinnacle of quality patient care, Dr. Micheli was also an incredible mentor to generations of orthopedic doctors. Furnace Brook PT owes a significant debt of gratitude to Dr. Micheli, who took our founder Jay Bernasconi under his wing from a young age and provided an unprecedented amount of access and guidance. He provided an amazing opportunity and a great foundation for a new clinic to build from. Without the kindness, knowledge, and generosity Dr. Micheli was able to impart, Furnace Brook PT would look very different today. He will forever be a fond memory for us and keep a special place in our hearts. May he rest in peace.

🏃‍♀️💪 Marine Corps Marathon Spotlight 💪🏃‍♀️

There’s nothing more inspiring than watching an athlete put in the work long before race day. This patient has logged years of consistency, discipline, and strength work to keep her body marathon-ready — and it shows. 🙌

From early-morning miles to injury-prevention sessions, she’s built a foundation that’s carried her through multiple marathons, including the iconic Marine Corps Marathon. 🦅🌟

Success like this doesn’t come from one training cycle — it comes from committing to your health, trusting the process, and showing up even when it’s hard.

Proud to be part of her journey and even prouder to cheer her on as she keeps crushing big goals. 🫶🔥

Here’s to strong bodies, strong minds, and the miles ahead. 🏅

Dry needling uses a thin, sterile needle to target trigger points and calm down painful, overactive muscle tissue. It’s done to help reduce pain, improve mobility, and speed up recovery when paired with the right exercise program.

Many of our therapists are certified in dry needling. It is simple, effective, and evidence-supported — just one of the many tools FBPT uses to help you move better.
