What We Do

Elite-Level Care.
Research-Based Results.

No unnecessary visits. No fluff. The most effective evidence-based therapies to get you moving again — fast.

Chiropractic & Physical Therapy
01

Chiropractic & Physical Therapy

Find the Root Cause. Fix It for Good.

Dr. Patrick is ART Full-Body Certified and McKenzie Method A–C certified. We don't treat symptoms — we identify the structural cause of your pain and correct it with precision manual therapy.

New Patient: $225

Follow-up: $105

Dry Needling & Cupping
02

Dry Needling & Cupping

Targeted Release for Stubborn Pain.

Dry needling goes directly to the trigger point causing your pain. Combined with cupping, it breaks down scar tissue and restores range of motion faster than passive stretching alone. $50 self-pay.

30-min session: $50

Self-pay only

Deep Tissue & Sports Massage
03

Deep Tissue & Sports Massage

Targeted Pressure. Faster Recovery.

Amelia DuBois and Nick Menard are clinical specialists — not spa therapists. 12+ years working alongside our doctors means they understand injury, compensation patterns, and recovery.

60-min: $120

90-min: $165

Prenatal Massage
03b

Prenatal Massage

Safe. Soothing. Designed for Pregnancy.

Our certified prenatal massage therapists specialize in the unique needs of expectant mothers. Reduce back pain, swelling, and stress while supporting a healthy pregnancy from first trimester to delivery.

60-min: $120

Book early — limited prenatal slots

Active Release Technique
04

Active Release Technique

Release Scar Tissue. Restore Performance.

ART is the gold standard for soft-tissue treatment used by professional sports teams worldwide. Our certified providers target the exact structure causing your pain and resolve it fast.

Existing patients only

30-min session

NormaTec Recovery
05

NormaTec Recovery

Compress. Recover. Perform Again.

NormaTec's patented pulsing compression flushes metabolites, reduces inflammation, and accelerates healing. Used by elite athletes and post-surgical patients alike. 20–30 min sessions.

Call to schedule

Can be used daily

McKenzie Method
06

McKenzie Method

Self-Manage Your Pain. Take Back Control.

The McKenzie Method (MDT) is an evidence-based system for spinal and extremity disorders. If PT hasn't worked for you before, MDT's classification system may be the answer.

"A shoulder injury put me out-of-commission for 2.5 years. Now, after seeing Patrick, I'm back in the game. He is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely cares about his patients. I cannot recommend him enough."

Melissa K.

Shoulder Injury · January 2025

"Dr. PK is phenomenal. I came in with lower back pain that had been bothering me for months. After just 3 visits, I felt like a completely different person. He takes the time to explain everything and actually listens to you. This is what healthcare should feel like."

JR

James R.

Lower Back Pain · November 2024

"I've been to many chiropractors over the years and Elite Performance is in a completely different league. Dr. Patrick's ART technique is unlike anything I've experienced. My chronic neck pain is finally gone after years of suffering."

Sarah M.

Chronic Neck Pain · October 2024

"As a marathon runner, I need a chiropractor who understands athletes. Dr. PK gets it. He's helped me recover from IT band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, and a hip flexor strain — all while keeping me training."
