Age is Never a Limiting Factor

Willamette Valley's Best Physical Therapy

Family Skiing

We Are Being Lied To:

  • "As we get older our bodies get weak"
  • "If it hurts, Stop. You Can't do that anymore." 
  • "Good patient care is 10 minutes with a PT before being passed off to students or aides."

At Performx we're changing the narrative. We are athletes that understand the importance of staying strong and healthy and the frustrations of struggling to keep up.

After working for years in traditional Physical Therapy practices, dictated by insurance companies, we decided enough is enough. 

Performx Puts You First

We guarantee that if we can't help you, we won't charge you and will help you find someone that can.

We know how scarce and valuable your time is and will help you reach your goals faster and more efficiently.

It's Never Too Late!

Our mission is to help you feel strong, confident and able to keep up with life. 

Let's chat today to make sure you don't miss out on your life, give up the activities you enjoy the most or accept that getting old means slowing down.

Dalton founded Performx to help athletes better understand their movement, injuries, and body, in order to keep them doing what they love. Dalton has expertise in movement, strength & conditioning and exercise science and believes that education and understanding injury/the body combined with exercise-based rehab is the key to effective rehab.
