Common Treatment Options

Positional Release Therapy (PRT)

PRT is simply the opposite of stretching. The manual therapy works much like unkinking a knotted necklace or rope by pushing together tissues to take tension off "neurological chain links." The therapy is pain-free and is suited for all ages to help resolve pain and tissue dysfunction.

Custom Orthotics

Custom is key with custom orthotics. Our custom orthotics are individually prescribed based on high-speed 3D video analysis of your gait and CAD casting of your feet to ensure an accurate prescription to meet your biomechanical needs and to also ensure a perfect match to the contours of your feet. Custom orthotics can lift an arch, relieve heel pain, and/or help compensate for joint deformities, such as a leg length discrepancy.

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment option for a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions such as plantar fascittis, tennis elbow, osteoarthritis, low back pain and many more. This proprietary technology is based on a unique set of sound waves that stimulate cellular metabolism, stem cell migration to the treatment area to build new tissue, enhancement of blood circulation, which accelerates the healing process.

One visit and pain has not returned in 3 days. I had runners knee and was doing pool therapy, wearing a swimming knee brace and still not getting any reduction in pain. Dr. Timothy resolved all of that in one session. I still have exercises to do to strengthen the small muscles around my knee and hips to keep my joints healthy but well worth any time and effort for the pain relief.

I can’t say enough about Elevated and the staff. I was seen years ago for my knee and Tim worked wonders. He had me running again in no time. When I began to have back and pelvis pain recently, I knew exactly who to go to. The therapists are fantastic, and have helped me get on the road to recovery. Don’t waste your time when it comes to pain. Go see this fantastic group first.

I couldn’t let another day go by before expressing my gratitude for Elevated Performance and Rehabilitation and Dr. Tim Speicher! For the last six years, a handful of physicians have spent many hours trying to solve my chronic proximal hamstring pain. After having been through so many kinds of therapy, I can truly say that PRT is like nothing I have ever experienced. Right off the bat, Tim recognized misalignments and imbalances in my pelvis. After giving me a proper diagnosis, he gave me the most effective treatment I have ever received (Positional Release Therapy) along with a thorough treatment plan! I am absolute ecstatic to have been led to Elevated Performance and Rehabilitation and I can’t wait to see what more we will accomplish together.

I have had calf pain for 2 years from a calf injury that never healed all the way. Within the hour they had fixed the calf and gave me exercises to help heal it 100% it has been great ever since. I have tried so many things, but this has been the only thing to help it. I suggest it for any muscle tightness, weakness or injuries. I am now thinking of all the things I could have work done on.
