Mark Denesha

Mark is counting down the days until his graduation from SUNY Downstate Medical Center (Brooklyn) this May. After, he intends to pursue a career in an orthopedic outpatient setting. Mark has interests in biomechanics, pain management, and strength training. He currently manages a website & blog, Muscles 2 Movement, while he completes his final clinical affiliation. Beyond PT, Mark is a fitness adventurer, willing to try most anything. Eating too much ice cream and watching movies is how he recharges his batteries and turns off his brain.
