Grand Opening of 49ers Rehab and Performance Physical Therapy Center at 49ers Fit

The 49ers Rehab and Performance Physical Therapy Center at 49ers Fit brings physical therapy and sports injury rehab to athletes and non-athletes seeking high quality care in Silicon Valley. The addition of OrthoNorCal and its experienced team of orthopedic specialists makes 49ers Fit the best-equipped physical therapy and rehab clinic in the Bay Area. In addition to the 40-yard indoor artificial turf area available for rehab drills and workouts, 49ers Fit already features an innovative recovery lounge featuring cryotherapy, NormaTec compression sleeves, hydromassages, and treatments delivered by the industry's leading experts.

"We are committed to delivering the 49ers brand to our fans through innovative partnerships and initiatives such as the pairing of WellStrong and 49ers Fit, a natural pairing that will provide unmatched facilities and care for our customers," said Paraag Marathe, President of 49ers Enterprises. "Combining the expertise of the OrthoNorCal physicians with the professional grade training and recovery equipment at 49ers Fit makes our facility the most comprehensive rehab and recovery center for athletes of all levels in the Bay Area."

"Even the most finely tuned athletes get aches, pains, and tweaked muscles so couldn't be more excited to welcome OrthoNorCal into 49ers Fit to add their expertise to the recovery equipment that we already have in the gym," said Jeremy Piamonte, 49ers Fit general manager. "We've had already designed 49ers Fit to be a full-service fitness and recovery center and with the addition of these orthopedic specialists we really have something no other facility can match."

The partnership between the 49ers and WellStrong launched in September 2017 with the opening of the first 49ers-branded physical therapy and sports rehabilitation center at 12 Upper Ragsdale Drive in Monterey, a collaboration with Monterey Spine & Joint. That successful collaboration led to the opening of a second overall location in January 2019, the group's first in San Jose, located at 550 S. Winchester Boulevard. All three facilities are fully operational and taking patients five days a week, Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

"WellStrong was founded on the belief that everyday athletes should have the ability to obtain professional athlete level care, and we are thrilled to see this idea grow with opening our third location," explained Scott Leggett, cofounder of WellStrong. "49ers Fit in San Jose is ideal as it provides convenient access to our physical therapy and rehabilitation services for an already active community."
