Dr. Michael Hatrak

A man passionate about eliminating chronic biomechanical injuries, Dr Michael Hatrak has been in practice for over 31 years specializing in sports medicine and performance. He received his Doctor of Chiropractic in 1976 from New York Chiropractic College (Columbia Division). In 1979, he was a professor at Pennsylvania Chiropractic College while maintaining a private practice in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

After years of research Dr. Hatrak came to the realization that Chiropractic care alone wasn’t enough to deliver the corrective care needed for professional athletes and the large increase of the “weekend warrior” crowd. Realizing there was a missing piece to the methods of treatments Dr. Hatrak discovered the solution with a man by the name of John Patterson. An extraordinary individual with an uncanny ability to see interrelationships within the bodies biomechanical structure, Mr. Patterson shared Dr. Hatrak’s passion for finding the missing link. Subsequently, along with Brian Glotzbach, Dr. Hatrak developed the foundation of SRT (Synergy Release Therapy).
