What the Mantione Method means

to an Athlete

 

“It takes courage to be you,
to look inside,
to follow your intuition,
to ask the question why,
to see beyond the forest,
to open your eyes,
Linus Pauling wasn’t a charlatan
he won the Nobel prize,
Hank Aaron-no drugs needed,
the homerun king
755.

 

Dr. Oz introduced alternative therapy to heal the heart,
unheard of in conventional practice,
he followed his intuition right from the start.

 

Ted Corbitt,
the father of long distance running,
a legend of our time,
pioneering the distance and color barriers of the sport
he had a ‘game mind.’

 

The goal was the Olympics,
The Big Dance,
20 years older than his competition,
No one game him a chance,
2 Olympics later,
He received the Athlete of the Year,
standing high at the podium while the audience cheered,
the athlete is here,
10 minutes later they were told to sit,
Why should they stop clapping?
Joseph Perez never quit.

 

Apply the knowledge,
make it your own,
open your mind,
advance what you know.

 

Dear Athlete,
from young to old,
if you follow the MANTIONE METHOD,
you will reach your goal.”

Running Legend

 

"Life Time Achievement Award: Runner’s World Magazine 2007 ."

 

“Jack Mantione has spent the bulk of his adult life studying and helping athletes and physical therapy patients. He has served in the role of serious athlete and he has received physical therapy himself.

 

He has come out of this with an unusually strong desire to be extraordinarily good at helping people as a physical therapist and as a personal trainer. Thus, he retains this desire to further master the tools that he needs to help others.

 

He deals with athletes and others by using the most advanced treatment tools and loads the patients up with self-help tools and selected supplements that he needs to help the cause.

 

He is a strong advocate of prevention of problems and using tools that are available to help a cause, as experience indicates that this is a successful approach and inexpensive.”

Road Runner’s Club, helped found New York City Marathon, Chief Physical Therapist at ICD (Institute for Crippled & Disabled)
