Bridgewater-headquartered JAG Physical Therapy this week announced a new collaboration with New York City FC (NYCFC) – becoming the official Physical Therapy and Athletic Training Partner of the Major League Soccer (MLS) club.

In a press release, the two organizations said this partnership signifies a collective commitment to promoting physical wellness, advancing soccer programs and educating the community on injury prevention.

The move marks the latest momentum for JAG. The company is one of the fastest-growing comprehensive physical and occupational therapy practices in the region.

“At JAG Physical Therapy, we are committed to providing our patients with exceptional care and educational resources to promote physical wellness,” said John Gallucci Jr., president and CEO of JAG Physical Therapy. NJBIZ profiled Gallucci in a story last month about his latest book, “The JAG Method,” as well as the company’s growth and next steps.

Andres Gonzalez, NYCFC vice president of partnerships, stressed JAG’s track record of providing top-quality physical and occupational therapy throughout the region.

“And we’re excited to welcome them as the club’s Official Physical Therapy Partner,” said Gonzalez. “We’re grateful to partner with one of the leading companies in this space to bring their education and care to our club’s recreational soccer tournaments.”

“We believe this partnership with New York FC is an opportunity to make a positive impact on our community and enhance health within local soccer programs,” Gallucci added.
