John joined Kitsap Physical Therapy and Sports Clinics in 1996. He has a unique perspective as both a patient and a provider of physical therapy, having been introduced to the profession through a personal injury.

John’s primary area of expertise centers around specific biomechanical treatment interventions combined with innovative functional exercise programs. He has attended many post graduate training courses and continues to pursue continuing education every year to further advance his treatment skills. John also specializes in hand therapy, vestibular disorders, and custom orthotic fitting.

I am a Russian native and live in Port Orchard, WA. Since I enjoy rain and humidity, as well as frizzy hair, Washington is a perfect fit for me. I do not know much about American football (and why is it called FOOTball? Nobody has been able to answer that one for me), though I support any sport. I like trying new activities: I believe it keeps one young physically and mentally. Motion is lotion!
