My experience at Performance PT has been wonderful and very, very helpful. I wish I had come sooner. My treatments have completely cured me of neck pain!

Thanks to Mike Fay, I'm healed. He was great, very informative, patient and soft spoken. He treats you like a person and not just another patient.
