What others are saying...
Sometimes when I have a thrower as a patient and I can't quite figure out the problem, I'll have them work with Joe for awhile and usually by assessing their mechanics or testing them over time he can get to the root of the problem quite effectively.
I am equally confident in his ability to rehab patients postoperatively. He is skilled at getting athletes back on the playing field from the operating room in a safe but expedicious manner."

“Over the 14 years that I have worked with Joe Mullins I have always been impressed with his professionalism, preparation, and attention to detail. Joe’s ability to integrate his clinical background of rehabilitation with the biomechanics of pitching is unique and will stand the test of time.”

Director of Physical Therapy, Guilford Orthopaedics
"In working with Joe Mullins, I noticed a significant change with my pitching staff. We had less elbow and shoulder problems. My pitchers bounced back quicker from appearance to apperarance. They were able to throw more pitches and go deeper in games without arm problems. My pitchers were also able to throw more pitches in a game earlier in the season."

“Where do I begin with Joe Mullins? He has a meticulous eye when it comes to proper pitching mechanics. With this knowledge, Joe is able to detect flawed movement patterns that can predispose an athlete to injury. His ability to clearly convey this knowledge makes him an outstanding teacher and Athletic Trainer. The athlete/patient always comes first and Joe will go the extra mile with his services. Personally, Joe is a great friend and mentor. He has helped me as an Athletic Trainer and, more importantly, as a person.”
Mike Wickland, ATC
Coordinator of Strength and Conditioning
New York Yankees Player Development
“Joe Mullins has a thorough understanding of the modern pitcher. His research into proper throwing mechanics has ultimately reduced the risk of injury to the baseball pitcher. Joe has identified the potential hazards, and most common flaws most young pitchers face each time they take the mound. Joe’s study of the proper throwing mechanics guides my team’s daily throwing program. In six years of high school coaching, none of my players have ever been sidelined due to an arm injury.”
