Dr. Anthony Joseph Amante is the founder and owner of Visionary Physical Therapy, a modern rehab and performance clinic designed to break away from the limitations of conventional care. He holds a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Sacred Heart University (2021), where he also earned his B.S. in Exercise Science (2017).

With over a decade of experience in healthcare dating back to 2013, Dr. Amante has dedicated his career to helping people move better, feel stronger, and stay ahead of injury.

As a physical therapist and performance rehab specialist, Anthony has a strong passion for helping athletes and active individuals reach their highest potential.

He also utilizes advanced clinical techniques for rib and spinal dysfunction to target mobility and pain in ways that traditional PT often overlooks.

At Visionary Physical Therapy, every client receives one-on-one, individualized care — not the rushed, insurance-driven experience most people are used to. Dr. Amante’s mission is to empower each person he works with to regain mobility, reduce pain, and crush their performance goals with a plan tailored just for them.
