Domenic has a passion for the physical therapy profession. He founded Vado therapy through which he provides services not only to the locally informed, but professional and Olympic athletes. Often catering to the latter. Domenic is a biomechanics expert who deeply understands the subtleties of human movement and the nuances of exercise. This is manifested in his detailed design of the SSS systems’ multi-planar strength training and rehabilitative device. Incorporated into his routine treatment protocols these machines have allowed Domenic to better serve his clients, expediting their recovery and facilitation their return to normalcy. 

Technical prowess aside, Domenic is a caring individual with a sincere regard for the welfare of others. This he brings to his practice and to it, I greatly attired his success. Domenic is a friend and fellow colleague in whom I have great confidence. I entrust my most challenging patients to Domenic and without hesitation, would do similarly for my family members.

The SSS affords many advantages for both non-operative and post-operative treatment of all types of shoulder conditions. It provides a solid, low-resistance platform to facilitate the treatment of scapular dyskinesia which, if ignored, can hinder the progress of any shoulder rehabilitation. It allows standardized, reproducible protocols for both the clinic and the home settings. The glenerohumeral and scapulorthorac joints can be mobilized with minimal stress, on the rotator cuff tendons, allowing safe and effective early post-operative restoration of motion. Additionally, it can eliminate delays in therapy and potentially contain the high costs of outpatient-based physical therapy, particularly with the recent insurance company trend of reducing physical therapy benefits. In short, the SSS is an innovative, comprehensive tool that should be used by anyone treating shoulder injuries.

Dr. Marc F. Matarrazzo

As a cardiologist and “weekend warrior,” I have entrusted my patients an myself to his (Domenic and Vado therapy) care. Domenic’s knowledge is encyclopedic and he understands biomechanics to the utmost. I feel that anyone that interacts with him comes out ahead. I have been seeing Domenic intermittently for the last ten years and will continue to heartily refer friends and family and patients to him.

Dr. Mishkel

Domenic is an excellent physical therapist that not only demonstrates superior manual therapy skills, but is an expert in helping all of his patients exceed their goals with therapy. It was a pleasure working along side of him and gaining experience working with a wide variety of patients from high level athletes to geriatric weekend warriors! If you are an injured, but hard working person that is willing to put in time to doing things the right way to get better this is the place to be. Domenic and his team can help you get there!

Dr. Joshua Bailin

 Domenic Pompile is one of the greatest clinicians I have ever come across in my career as a Doctor of Physical Therapy. I am grateful to have been a part of his team and to call him one of my mentors. The result is that I am an even greater clinician now than I was before! Domenic’s level of expertise is beyond what generally comes to mind when people think of physical therapy. His evidence-based approach enables reproducible results time and time again. Through Domenic’s skillful manual therapy techniques, patients, whether they be athletes or weekend warriors, not only recover, but are built even better. Domenic’s methods optimize functional capacity, maximizing performance and reducing the risk of future injury. His dedication to excellence shows in the results he achieves for his patients. It was an honor to be a part of Domenic’s team and I highly recommend Vado Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine to those who not only want to feel better, but optimize their fullest functional capabilities.
