Performance Physical Therapy

I was treated for my neck and shoulders, primarily by Jennifer. I also saw a few other therapists, but not once did I have to repeat my story. The environment of PPT and the friendliness of all the staff made my visits enjoyable! I can’t believe how pain free I am! I’ve been to other therapy places; PPT is TOPS!

Before coming to PPT I saw another physical therapist about hip pain. After seven weeks there wasn’t any improvement. A friend recommended PPT and the results were phenomenal! Sean thoroughly tested my range of motion and prescribed several stretching and strengthening exercises. He progressed these weekly. He re-tested my ROM after six weeks and the improvements were remarkable. Plus the pain was gone! Sean will be my PT for life!

From the start of my PT everyone I encountered was very friendly and pleasant. I was impressed with the interaction between staff and how knowledgeable Taylor (PT) as well as the techs were when I asked questions. I would recommend this office!!!

I came to Performance Physical Therapy several years ago because I had heard good things about them, having been disappointed in other PT practices I had used over the years. Most recently, the last two sets of therapy have been with Jordan Morris, who is an outstanding diagnostician and therapist. He carefully evaluated my aches and pains and the exercises he used and therapies he applied succeeded in vastly improving my strength and flexibility. I would most definitely work with him again if I have any other issues. He is an asset to the practice.

Highly Recommend! I was extremely impressed w/the quality of care I received. The Physical therapist, Sam Bachman, had her Doctorate in Physical Therapy - was up to date on the latest treatments and had me 100% for a shoulder issue in just a few short weeks, after months of pain. I would definatly go back to PPT for any future needs!

Tips To Avoid Upper Body Injuries While Kayaking or Canoeing

While we are in the midst of summer heat, water activities such as kayaking or canoeing tend to be a popular option to experience the outdoors while beating some of the heat. Many of us (including myself) may be unaware of the impact paddling can place on our bodies when beginning the sport. I remember waking up my first day after kayaking to intense shoulder and back soreness and knew that I needed to educate others about the importance of proper paddling form to prevent injury. Whether you are an experienced kayaker or just beginning, grab your life jacket, and let’s get started on navigating through safe and efficient paddling techniques.

Now that you have the knowledge and tips to keep yourself safe, be sure to implement these techniques to prevent injury. I would rather see you out on the water than in my office, but if you have any questions about paddling or other activities, feel free to reach out to me at agordon@pptandfitness.com.
