Advanced Therapy Techniques and Modalities

Access a variety of cutting-edge therapy options in your own backyard.

Dry Needling

Our team uses dry needling to treat pain and movement impairment. Inserting a "dry" needle (one without medication or injection) through the skin into areas of the muscle, this technique releases or inactivates trigger points to relieve pain and improve your range of motion.

Ultrasound

Our team applies ultrasound therapy to tight ligaments, muscles, and tendons in the body. Ultrasound provides deep heat and energy to the affected area in order to speed up the healing process, increase elasticity, aid in circulation, and decrease pain.

Electrical Stimulation

Electrical stimulation therapy provides a number of benefits, such as improving coordination, increasing circulation, reducing muscle spasms, and decreasing swelling. Allowing electricity to pass through your body and ultimately interact with sensory and/or motor nerves, electrical stimulation also strengthens and repairs muscles that have been damaged due to disease or injury.

Paraffin Bath

Combining warm paraffin oil and wax, a paraffin bath can bring pain relief to sore joints, muscles, and tissues, as well as the hands, feet, and other hard to reach areas. The deep heat provided from a paraffin bath can also improve mobility, increase circulation, and relax stiff muscles.

Hot/Cold Therapy

Alternating heat and cold applications to an injury, also known as hot/cold therapy, provides fast and natural pain relief, as well as increases circulation, reduces inflammation, and loosens muscle. Hot/cold therapy can be a low-risk treatment for sore or pulled muscles, plus back, neck, shoulder, and knee pain.

Infrared/Red Light Therapy

Infrared/red light therapy is used to effectively treat pain, a number of soft tissue injuries, and inflammatory conditions. Backed by extensive research, this cutting-edge therapy technique supports a variety of conditions, including arthritis, carpal tunnel, TMJ, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes, we regularly communicate with your doctor. This includes initial evaluations and occasional progress notes. This is to:

    1. Ensure that the treatment you receive is consistent with what your doctor is recommending.
    2. Maintain a continuity of care between the professionals who are helping you.
  • If we are asking you to do something that is hurting too much, let us know! Physical therapy should not be severely painful. It is not common to be so sore that patients are in pain or it affects their daily life. If this ever happens during or after an appointment, let us know and we will adapt your program.

  • We recommend budgeting 40-60 minutes for a typical therapy session. The only exception to this will be your first visit, which can take about 20 minutes longer due to the physical therapy evaluation your therapist will provide. We also recommend showing up about 10-15 minutes early to your first visit. This way, you can complete the paperwork before your visit time and streamline the process.

  • A typical order for physical therapy will ask for 2-3 visits per week for 4-6 weeks. Sometimes the order will specify something different. What generally happens is for the first 2-3 weeks, we recommend 3x per week. This is because it will be the most intensive portion of your treatment. After that, it is common to taper to 2x weekly, based on your level of function and progress.

The whole team here is great. I had ankle surgery and from the moment I stepped into the office they were communicative, kind, patient and supportive of my needs. If you follow their exercises at home and do your part at the clinic you'll be doing grear in no time.

Taylor was been awesome with all my therapy over the last 2 years. He has worked with me after 9 surgeries after a 30’ fall. He cares about his patients and listens to their questions and concerns. I highly recommend Taylor.

I truly love the people in this office! I was in an accident a few years back and waited quite a long time before getting into therapy because I didn't know how I was going to afford it. They completely understood where I was coming from and made sure to send me home with plenty of exercises to do at home so that I could come every other week because that's what my budget could handle. I am very happy with the results from where I was and where I am now. It feels good to get back to normal things without being in pain anymore. Thank you!!!

Peak Performance Physical Therapy & Sports Training is great for physical therapy. I am happy with the sessions with Taylor LaCouture. He is very instrumental on helping me feel good and getting my range back in motion. I feel better after each session. Taylor is knowledgeable, friendly, easygoing and professional. Also, Henrietta who runs the front office is always a pleasure to talk to on the phone and a pleasant, smiling person to greet and help you when you come in.
