I enjoy interacting with the public and making a difference in someone’s life. Working at Peak Performance gives me that opportunity because of the individual care that is given to each of my patients. We try to make the environment here as welcoming and comforting as possible when you enter the clinic. We treat a wide variety of people ages 10 to 90 with different conditions/injuries from orthopedic to neuromuscular. Aside from the usual modalities you find in a physical therapy clinic, we also have a machine called “Game Ready,” which helps to get our athletes back to their sport as soon as possible by reducing swelling and pain so the healing process can begin to take place. We also use a taping technique called Kinesiotaping, which has shown to have great results on a variety of conditions.
Since we are connected to the Spectrum health club, we are able to use their facility as a part of our rehab protocol if needed. The Brusly/Port Allen location is located less than 5 miles from I-10, which makes it convenient for people who work in Baton Rouge to receive therapy closer to home.
