Dr. Frank Turchioe, a Somers native, first became interested in the world of chiropractic after a lower back injury sustained while playing football (Go Tuskers!) sidelined him. After many visits to medical doctors and surgeons, it seemed like the only option was spinal fusion surgery. On the advice of his family, he decided to try a chiropractor. Having never even heard of chiropractic prior to this, he was skeptical. The decision ended up changing his life. After only two weeks, he was back on the field and stronger than ever thanks to the treatments, exercises, and sport specific training that his chiropractor had implemented with him. Dr. Turchioe immediately saw the potential of this type of care and thought that helping people in similar situations would be something he would enjoy doing.
Eventually, he attended New York Chiropractic College and graduated in 2017. Since then, he has worked with patients from all walks of life including professional athletes from the MLB, NFL, PGA Tour and athletes from professional strongman organizations. From office workers to professional athletes, Dr. Turchioe believes all patients deserve the same level of care.
Dr. Turchioe provides soft tissue manipulation, joint manipulation, exercise rehabilitation, functional movements assessments, and sport specific and personal training alongside passive modalities to patients in his practice. He strives to treat the patient and not treat symptoms. His goal is to get you out of pain, improve your movement and body mechanics, and to educate you to set you up for a pain free and healthy life regardless of who you are and what you do.
Here at Somers Sport and Spine we are dedicated to making sure that you are able to do that!

Curious about what you should expect when being treated at Somers Sport and Spine? Dr. Turchioe starts with every patient by taking a detailed patient history. He will then perform a series of functional screening tests, orthopedic exams, and neurological evaluations based on your history and current complaints. From there, you may or may not be treated on the day of your initial exam, depending on the doctor’s findings. After your initial exam, Dr. Turchioe will assemble a treatment plan for you which may include therapeutic exercise, soft tissue manipulation, passive modalities such as electric stimulation and ultrasound therapy, and chiropractic adjustments, if beneficial for your
condition. Upon your next visit, he will explain your diagnosis as well as your treatment plan to you in detail.
After completion of your review of findings, he will then perform soft tissue manipulation on you according to your diagnosis as well as any chiropractic manipulation that you may require. Next, Dr. Turchioe will coach you through your therapeutic exercise plan. Upon completion of your exercise regimen, you will also be given exercises to complete at home on your own. However, some or all of this will vary from patient to patient based on your ailments and history. Dr. Turchioe also offers private and group personal training to anyone looking to improve in their sport, lose weight, or just be more healthy and active. Additionally, Dr. Turchioe is level 2 SFMA certified and offers functional movement assessments to interested patients. This type of assessment is used to determine if you are moving properly and provides ways to correct any movement dysfunction. SFMA is great for both athletes and non-athletes to prevent injury and improve both sport performance as well as your activities of daily living.
