Andrea
Hammer is the founder and CEO of Hammer Golf
Performance and Fitness, which combines the biomechanical analysis of the golf
swing with physical therapy techniques to help golfers improve their game. Asteame is Andrea’s second startup company,
which she co-founded. The idea for Asteame grew out of Andrea’s
personal battle with breast cancer. Her
experience also led her to pioneer the development of a new, innovative
physical therapy treatment protocol and manual therapy technique for treating
women during the expansion phase of the breast reconstruction process. This protocol aids in women’s recovery by
alleviating pain, discomfort, and limited mobility, in addition to optimizing women’s
reconstructive results. Andrea
received a Masters of Science degree in Physical Therapy from Boston University
and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Carleton College.
