Stretching alone doesn’t always fix tight, painful muscles, and that’s because the real issue often runs deeper.
Our Dry Needling & Stretch Therapy approach targets intramuscular restrictions that limit mobility, disrupt muscle activation, and keep your body stuck in pain or stiffness. By combining dry needling with guided stretch therapy, we help restore movement, improve range of motion, and support faster recovery.
If you’ve tried stretching, foam rolling, or resting with limited results, this may be what your body’s been missing.

At Performance Lab, we focus on improving strength, mobility, and movement quality so you can stay active, independent, and doing what you love longer.
If something has been nagging you, our Doctors of Physical Therapy are here to help you understand what’s really going on, and what’s possible for your body.

Unlock Your Performance with P.R.I.M.E.® Signature Evaluation
Pain or stiffness isn’t random; it’s a signal.
Our P.R.I.M.E.® Signature Evaluation identifies the muscular restrictions limiting your mobility, strength, and performance, so nothing is left to guesswork.
P.R.I.M.E.® = Precision Release of Intramuscular End Points
These hidden restrictions, caused by stress, injury, or poor movement patterns, disrupt how muscles fire, move, and perform. Stretching alone won’t fix them.
💡 What you gain from a P.R.I.M.E.® Evaluation:
✔️ Clear insight into what’s holding you back
✔️ A clinician-guided movement and performance roadmap
✔️ Improved mobility, efficiency, and confidence
✔️ A plan built around your goals not symptoms
⏱️ 60–90 minutes | 1:1 with a Doctor of Physical Therapy
🎯 Designed for athletes & active adults who want real results

Clarity. Confidence. Results.
