I don’t have enough great things to say about this facility. I am always welcomed with a warm hello and treated like gold throughout my experience. Janelle is incredible for her physio, acupuncture, and cupping. She always assessed and address what I need and creates a long lasting plan so I walk away pain free for not just a week but years to come. Dave is next level when it comes to strategic planning and intentional treatment for chiropractic. He always listens to what I need and makes sure to implement a plan that works for his clients. I have been going to Peak for 3+ years and I will continue for the rest of my years to come!

- Riley Krumes

The team at Peak Health is amazing. My Fiance and I have been devoted customers for more than 5 years! We are monthly visitors and it is always a pleasure from check-in all the way to follow ups. Special shout out to Jessica E and Jana for always taking care of us.

- Sarah Campbell

I have been a patient of Jessica Ecclestone's for just over a year. She uses a combination of cupping and hands on treatment, but will guide her treatment method to your request (I have also had a massage where I requested no cupping, and she was very easy to accommodate). She is professional and passionate about providing excellent care. I highly recommend her. In addition, the reception staff is always very friendly and welcoming. They make your experience enjoyable from start to finish!

- Teri Stuckless

Dr.Sjodin has been so helpful towards me while I’ve been dealing with post concussive syndrome. He is a wealth of knowledge, keeps up to date on his field, and has been very reassuring and supportive throughout this whole process. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Sjodin for concussion management and Chiropractic services.

- Danielle Manchak

Peak is the best! I can't say enough about how they have helped me to feel better and encouraged in my healing. Dr Logan Gerwing has changed my life. I have such an optimistic view of where my healing can go since I've started here!

- Megan Niccolls

Every time I have a nagging injury I visit Peak. Their therapists are so talented and committed to getting me back to doing what I love. They actually fix the issue and aren’t there just to make money and have you repeat visits. So impressed and so happy with this facility.

- Dave W.

From the moment I walked through the door I was greeted by kind, friendly staff. I've had the pleasure of working with Chiropractic, physiotherapy and massage. Each are excellent and they care about your health. Never once have I felt like I was rushed out the door, or just a number. If you are looking for knowledgable and caring staff, I highly recommend you give Peak Health a try!

- Andrew Robinson

Every aspect of this clinic shouts excellence. Clean, comfortable waiting room, efficient friendly front desk staff and knowledgeable effective practitioners. I recommend this clinic to anyone looking to move and feel better.

- Scott A.

I am a new patient at Peak Health but can already confidently say this clinic deserves nothing less than 5 stars. The front staff are all very welcoming, friendly, and kind. From the first visit, Kevin made me feel safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. He is extremely knowledgeable about his work and worked with me to create a custom treatment plan so that I can get back to 100%. Highly recommend!

What is Active Release Techniques® (ART)?

Active Release Techniques (ART) is a patented, movement-based soft tissue technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. ART® helps break down pain-generating soft tissue adhesions (scar tissue), a by-product of cumulative soft tissue trauma, which results in increased soft tissue tension, pain, and dysfunction.

What Happens During an ART Appointment?

Once your ART® certified practitioner has assessed your current condition and mobility, the ART® treatment includes manually generating tension through an area of muscle tissue while elongating or moving the region through a specific and normal range of motion.
