"I started at Cooper Massage & Therapy after having gastric bypass surgery. My goal was to get "in shape". I have not only gained physical strength, but nutritional strength as well. Mark, for me, set himself apart from other personal trainers I have worked with in this... He is extremely knowledgable about the physical body and has targeted specific areas for me.

He continues to motivate me and challenge me." - Arrie, Long Valley, NJ

"Scheduling allows for a one-on-one relationship. I'm a massage and training client." - Debbie, Chester, NJ
