Meet Your Director

Tim Salkowski PT, DPT

MY HOBBIES: Reading, exercising, market analytics, guitar

Dr. Tim was first exposed to physical therapy after his father punched his boss’s desk at work, breaking his hand and sending him to a physical therapist. His dad had him come check it out since Tim was a lost, young person at a community college trying to figure out what to be when he grew up.

Due to his many years of lifting weights and athletic background as a soccer and baseball player, physical therapy was an immediate hit.

He would take a job as a physical therapist aide here at Breakthru Physical Therapy before eventually attending Rutgers University to receive his Doctorate in Physical Therapy. After graduation, he returned to Breakthru as a physical therapist and is currently the Assistant Manager of the Medford Taunton Forge office.

Dr. Tim’s passion for physical therapy grew from a love of physical fitness and exercise. He believes that exercise is, in most cases, our first and best line of defense against injury and pain.

Throughout his clinical experiences, he has developed a passion for orthopedic and sports physical therapy. Tim has a special interest in Blood Flow Restriction Therapy, which involves low load resistance exercise combined with moderate reduction of blood flow to a working muscle to increase strength and improve cardiovascular function.

The only thing Tim loves more than seeing his patients resume participation in activities they love is seeing them go on to make their health and physical fitness a priority in their lives for many years to come.

Rutgers University 2017, Bachelor of Science in Biology with a Minor in Philosophy

If I could give Dr Abby 10 stars I would, she’s well worth the services. I’ve tried multiple PT facilities with no success in relieving my pain. It took Dr Abby one visit to feel the relief! I highly recommend BreakThru PT in Mount Laurel and Dr Abby to everyone. The office is nice and staff is wonderful! Special thanks to Carolyn at the front desk for recommending Abby, she’s been very helpful.

Carol Geller

I am a veteran of PT, but I can honestly say that I have never actually seen and felt the good results I am getting after working with Tim for almost 8 weeks. I have numerous issues and he is helping me address them all. It is a great atmosphere, and Tim makes it fun. Tim is really knowledgeable and he listens to me and wants to help me achieve my goals. Thanks Tim. What a great feat! Lol

Abby is the best physical therapist I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I have been seeing Abby for at least 5 years for various injuries. I have always had a positive result. She makes me work hard and I don't mind as there is no gain without pain. I have recommended her to a number of individuals I know and they have all had positive outcomes.

I have gone to Breakthru for years. Most recently my therapist Tim Salkowski was transferred and promoted to the Mt. Laurel office. Once my schedule changed I was able to follow Tim to Mt. Laurel because out of all my therapists I had the best results with Tim. I highly recommend Breakthru, especially Tim. The office is brand new and all of the staff are kind and friendly.

The Breakthru team has been amazing. I’ve been working with Abby and Natasha for some time now helping me resolve a chronic recurring pain I’ve had the last ~8 years. Wish I’d discovered here sooner!

Erin Kitley

23:22 02 Jun 23

I have been seeing Abby on and off for three years and I couldn't recommend her more! She is an amazing PT who always helps get me back to distance running in a safe manner. As a distance runner, I have faced a few injuries and with her talents, she has helped to get me back on my feet and back at the starting line. Not only is she a great PT skill-wise, but she is easy to talk to and takes time to get to know her patients. She works really hard to set realistic and safety minded goals. I always look forward to working with her every week!!

Abby and the rest of the breakthrough staff are wonderful. The whole team is attentive to any needs and never hesitates to answer any question you have. I’ve been going here for years and will continue to do so.

The Breakthru team has been incredible in helping my daughter recover from injury and get back to sports. When I realized how wonderful Dr.Abby and all the staff are, I decided to stop delaying my own treatment for long standing back pain. Thank you, Breakthru for being so helpful and accommodating every step of the way!

Tim and PT student Rachel at the Mt. Laurel office have been helping me for the past couple of weeks with sciatic-like pain. Worked with me at the beginning to develop a plan that fit with my goals. Both are very personable and made therapy (almost) fun! Highly recommend the office.

Tim has been amazing during my recovery. I have been a patient for over 3 months and actually had to have to foot and shoulder pt ….yay me! But I could not have asked for a more skilled and passionate therapist. Tim took the time to listen and understand my needs and was very thorough. There were times when I was so discouraged from my pain and he made me feel at ease and gave me hope. He’s fun, energetic and outgoing, he definitely loves what he does because it illuminates the room whenever I’m there. He remembers every patient and makes it a point to know the person. I never felt like a number and I can’t say enough great things about Tim and Breakthru. Thank you for your kindness and compassion, and commitment to my wellness!

Tim and Matt have consistently created a treatment plan for me then gradually started me with it. They check in each time with me on how I feel physically before starting my program at times adjusting it when I’m struggling such as migraines and overall pain.I believe I have been improving in their care and therapy. They are professional yet friendly, knowledgeable and open to questions. I believe I’m in good hands.

Dr. Matt at Breakthru PT is exceptional! I suffered from a tear in my Achilles and since I’ve been working with him, I’ve significantly improved. He developed a dynamic plan for me where each time I see him, he alters my exercises to focus on the area around my Achilles. He uses blood flow restriction to help strengthen my muscles. At the end of each session, he uses their Game Ready device which applies compression and cold therapy to help the healing process. Dr. Matt is extremely knowledgeable, very precise, patient, compassionate, focused, thorough, great at explaining why an exercise helps and further demonstrating it, and he can be witty! I highly recommend Dr. Matt to anyone who is looking for an all-around physical therapist!

The best place ever! I've been seeing Matt for a couple of years and he has helped me tremendously with multiple injuries. The place is clean with a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Joy Stewart

Matt Fredrick is the definitely the best physical therapist that I have ever been to! Years ago, Matt helped me heal from auto accident injuries after someone smashed into the back of my car when I was stopped at a red light. This year, my father needed physical therapy to build up his strength. I made sure to bring him to Matt, knowing that he would receive the best care. Matt is very thorough in explaining the treatment plan, ongoing progress and desired goals. Matt is really great at what he does! If anyone needs a physical therapist in the South Jersey area, be sure to come to Matt Fredrick.

I started with Dr Matt with aquatic therapy at a very low level. I progressed to high level exercises in the pool and am now doing full body training on land. PT has helped decrease my need for pain management and has prevent my need for surgery. I would highly recommend Breakthru and Dr. Matt!

Janet Dagrosa

15:35 30 Sep 22

I have had a remarkably quick recovery from my total knee replacement surgery working with Abby at the Mt Laurel Breakthrough PT. Abby really listens & quickly assesses my status to provide the right amount of push (and good alternatives) to show positive results….all in a fun caring atmosphere. My surgeon was especially pleased with my post op results. I definitely have confidence in Abby and will be back when I get my other knee done next year.

Breakthru is a wonderful company with wonderful staff. Matt is knowledgeable and well trained. He diagnosed my condition and was spot on prior to my imaging study being reported. I would allow him to treat my children, this is the highest compliment that a parent or a professional in my field of work can give. I am lucky to have found him and am thankful for his help.

Ian Tuch

19:29 28 Sep 22

Matt is the man! He's gotten me back on my feet after tearing Achilles. He is currently helping my son recover after tearing his ACL. I know we are in good hands and highly recommend him and the team at Breakthru!

Dr.Matt has helped my knee tremendously. I thought it was no hope when I first came because it was so far from my surgery, but he never gave up on me and changed my attitude. My knee bends with no pain now. All the staff is great and they care about you. Best place to heal in New Jersey!

I’ve been going to Breakthru for several weeks to treat back pain. When I first started, the pain was intense all the time. After working with Dr. Matt, my pain has drastically decreased. I feel such a difference on days I have PT. He takes the time to explain what he’s asking you to do and why. Dr. Matt clearly cares about his work and healing his patients.

Sage Knaub

18:47 12 Jun 22

Abby is a great pt! She is able to understand that I am a dancer, as a lot of other pts don’t understand the demands of your body.

After experiencing back and knee issues, I started researching the best place to go for physical therapy. I decided to give Breakthru a try and it was the best decision I could have made. Matt is honestly the best physical therapist. He takes time to come up with the best game plan to relieve the pain and become stronger. He is super knowledgeable and literally explains everything in a way that I can understand. He is patient and really wants to help his patients. I'm so glad I decided to come here.

Very responsive and professional. The staff understood the time sensitive nature of my need to start PT after a ruptured Achilles tendon. I had an appointment 48 hours after my call. Everywhere else had a 3-4 week wait. The DPts at Breakthru have an excellent understanding about rehabbing athletes and getting us back to sport. Definitely recommend!

2 months ago, I was running track for my high school and during one of my races I got injured and it turned out I had a stress fracture in my right foot. I was looking for a physical therapy place that would help me get on the right track after I returned from my injury so I would be at full strength for when I returned . So I found place. I worked with a guy named Matthew Fredrick and he did an amazing job with preparing me for my recovery. I showed heavily improvements in not just my injured foot, but also my legs. When I first started working with Matt, I couldn’t even balance on my leg for 5 seconds. After 2 weeks, I was already back to running at full strength and I feel stronger than before. Everyone is very nice in there, including the people at the front desk. If you are an athlete like me that suffered any sort of injury. I would 100% check this place out.

I have been to four different PT practices over the last ten years, and Breakthru is by far the best. Matt Frederick has provided excellent, hands-on, personalized care, and I feel stronger. I recommend them highly!!

RobScandalous

20:18 08 Mar 22

I primarily see Matt but sometimes see Abby. I have lots of neck stiffness and pain which makes sports and the gym difficult, but both are amazing and help me stay in the game. We do a variety of things every session that works not only my neck but other areas that impact it. While the soft tissue work is awesome, all of the stretching and other exercises really help strengthen things for the long term. Highly recommend!

Patricia Herrera

18:52 08 Mar 22

I go to the Breakthru in Mt. Laurel and Carolyn is very nice and helpful she always helps me with any questions I have and she also is great with scheduling my appointments. I work with Abby and with Matt they are both very great when they are working with me with my therapy. I would recommend family and friends to this location.

Caryn Lipkowitz

18:29 03 Mar 22

The whole staff is great at Breakthru PT, especailly Abby! I call her a magician because she has improved my pain like no other PT! I have a hypermobility disorder that Abby attacks in a methodical way. She is a great listener as to how my body is feeling from week to week. I feel like I have a real team member/ care giver in her. I highly recommend Abby!

Dr. Abby Dingle is hands down the best physical therapist we have ever seen. My daughter had a number of shoulder and back injuries that had gotten little to no relief with previous PT. Abby immediately identified the issue and within a view visits she was feeling better. Her endless positive attitude is infectious and kept my daughter very motivated. We cannot thank you enough!

I had injured my shoulder back in 2020 and recently had arthroscopic surgery. After a week of healing at home I started going to Break Through Physical Therapy twice a week and with the assistance of Abigail and Matt I can honestly say that I’m getting back on the right path to a fully healed shoulder. Everyone at this location takes a personal interest in your rehab and push you to get better. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff and would suggest anyone who is seeking physical therapy to check out Break Through!!!

Abby has been my home girl for so long. I have such a complicated knee history and she has been so incredible in tracking with me throughout it all. My brother and I have been at this clinic for a short while and we love it already. Abby and the rest of the team here rock. She has been a huge help within my recovery and I always look forward to coming to PT :-) if you’re looking for a solid pt and clinic in south Jersey I definitely recommend!

The first time I entered Breakthru Physical Therapy in Mt. Laurel I was greeted with the smiling face of a very friendly receptionist, Faith. Faith immediately made me feel welcome and introduced me to my Physical Therapist, Jonathon Eaton. Jon was also very friendly and took the time to hear about my medical history, the reason I was thee and my goals. After a thorough evaluation he set up a program to help me be more mobile and with less pain. Every session was challenging but if an exercise or stretch was too painful it was stopped. The patient comes first and Jonathon always made sure of that. I have been to many physical therapy facilities that most of them seemed like an assembly line when it came to your therapy but not at Breakthru. It's more personable with a very friendly but professional atmosphere. I highly recommend to anyone who requires physical therapy to consider Breakthru PT and especially in Mt. Laurel.Sincerely,Ray Gasnick

I have been to many PT facilities over 20 years. In S.Jersey I love Breakthru P.T. The individual attention is wonderful. You dont feel like your at a cattle call like at most other places. The entire staff from receptionist to therapist are so friendly. They have equipment for every ailment you may have. I highly reccomend Breakthru over any other facility your considering. They have great hours and our very accommodating.

Breakthru Physical Therapy has to be the best place to receive physical therapy in South Jersey. I am a college athlete and recently had shoulder surgery. Jon was my therapist and he is the man. He helped me gain my full range back swiftly and is just a cool guy who made it effortless to show up for my appointments. Ask for Jon!

Jayne Hessian
