“KEEPING IT AWKWARD” JEN’S SUCCESS STORY
“I can sum up my entire experience at Peak Motion in one phrase – Keeping it Awkward. I have been placed in more bendy, twisty, rotation-y, and uncomfortable positions while Mike and Jonathan helped to figure out my ailments. Think of it as a one-person game of Twister, and at the end of the day, you’re the winner. I’m a runner, both long distance and obstacle course training, and I was able to rack up every injury known to mankind. After self-treating for a couple months, because you know, Dr. Google, I finally took a friend’s advice and went to see the team at Peak Motion. In my first conversation with Mike, he asked me if I purposefully waited until I had as many injuries as possible before coming in…I knew right then and there, that this team was going to be great. A healthy balance of hilarity and sass, along with the experienceandmedicalexpertisetoreallygettotheroot ofmyproblems. IcametoPeakwithchronicshinsplints post-stressfracture,twingyknees,andmost importantly aseverepain inmyhipthatpreventedmefromrunning… period.Overthefewmonthswespenttogether, I learned
more about howmy muscles, tendons, and everything wereall related,and throughASTYM treatments (which are amazing), manual manipulation of joints, targeted exercises, stretching (LOTS OF STRETCHING), and my favorite, theThermoStim treatment,Mikeandhis team were able to get me back to running without pain. The best part is that they also gave me the knowledge and the tools toprevent future injury.And,asmuchas I love hanging out with the Peak crew, I do hope I don’t have to see them any time soon. I can’t rave enough about each of the treatments, and the encouragement you get from the staff to really do yourhomeworkandgetbetter.Theyaren’t likea regular doctor’s office where you might feel like you are being shuffled in and out.They laugh with you, joke with you, and are just as invested in your health as you are. Here’s to a great team that I hope continues to “Keep it Awkward” for many patients to come. Because, not only does it work, you will have a good time doing it!” - Jen R.
My feet are happy! "When I came to PT, I was experiencing pain, tingling, and numbness in my feet. It was miserable to do any of my exercise activities. After being put on a regimen of stretching and ASTYM therapy, my feet are happy again. Mike, Emily, Jon, Bre, and the rest of the team are so kind and helpful. Thank you so much.” - Marce S.
