One will have to experience going to Direct Performance to really understand how good they are at what they do! I am very happy with the results of my visits as of recent, and will refer and go back myself when need be!

Direct Performance Physical Therapy is AWESOME! Truthfully 5 stars is not enough, I think they deserve 10 stars. Eh, I might be one sided because I have never been anywhere else. That's because the entire staff was very helpful. I had therapy at both the Great Neck and Rosemont locations. I had pulled my back out and had several issues with one of my knees that needed therapy. They work on both some days and days they concentrated on one or the other because of my pain level or discomfort at the time. The overall 6 months to a year time being treated being Direct Performance staff while I was still in the military. I am very grateful that I was able to have therapy there, because now that I have stopped therapy I have had no pain at all since my last session in August 2019. If I ever need PT again, I will not second guess requesting my doctor to send me to Direct Performance Physical Therapy. Thank you to the whole staff!

I've been going to Direct Performance (Virginia Beach- West Great Neck Rd.) since January for PT after surgery for a rotator cuff tear. Dr. Kiley Fletcher was my physical therapist for seven months and I can't believe how far I have come with her help and advice! I now have full range of motion and I couldn't be happier! I was doing pull ups by the time I was discharged! They have been so good to me. The facility is clean and they are super flexible with scheduling. Best experience with physical therapy I could have ever asked for! Love Direct Performance and I HIGHLY recommend!

I've never needed physical therapy until I had surgery on my torn right achilles tendon. Direct Performance, without a doubt, has to be the greatest physical therapy experience there is. Everyone was extremely professional, and excited to see me every week. There was a tremendous amount of genuine passion towards helping others. For someone going through a serious injury for the first time, my therapist (Kiley) being so passionate and taking so much time to explain things to me made it so much easier. The real passion for helping can't be overstated. I recommend Direct Performance to anyone/everyone that is looking for PT. What an amazing experience. The best there is.

Great experience with Direct Performance PT. Worked with both Jake and Kylie, though mostly with Kylie. She got my nagging shoulder injury under control with dry needling, stretches, and exercises targeted towards strengthening those muscles supporting the shoulder. Nice facility and knowledgeable staff. If you're in need of physical therapy give Direct Performance a call, Kylie or any of the team there will get you fixed up.

Over the last several weeks I've had appointments with either Dr. McKenzie or Dr. Fletcher. They were able to quickly resolve a hip issue that was limiting my CrossFit performance. I received a dry needle session with muscle stimulation, targeted stretching and performed physical work to test progress in the office. Good job guys, thanks

I recently had two sessions with Jake at Direct Performance off Great Neck Rd. I found Direct Performance though google and yelp reviews, and I can say that all of the positive reviews were right on point.
Jake sat me down and listened to everything surrounding the areas I had affected by pain. Then, he went through a thorough assessment where he carefully observed my movement and provided specific instructions for me to communicate how various positions felt.
He then demonstrated various therapy exercises that I could easily perform at home, along with a strategy to improve my problem areas over the coming months.
The space is very nice with all kinds of equipment for the PTs on site to demonstrate, and for clients to practice therapy exercises under a watchful eye. Everything about Direct Performance and their staff felt very modern, professional and comfortable.
I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a physical therapist.

Brian worked with me to resolve low back pain that had been bothering me for years. With the corrective exercises, dry needling, and cuing he gave me, I am lifting more than I ever have, without pain!! They have a great facility, and are great physical therapists for serious or casual athletes.

Kiley was awesome. She knows her anatomy and what affects what. Very knowledgable. I have seen her for about 5-6 weeks to help with my recovery from my fracture on my shoulder. She is very friendly and easy to work with. Thank you very much Kiley!!!

Through Brian's dry needling therapy I was able to get back significant range of motion and wildly reduce the pain I was experiencing in multiple muscles & joints. All around - an awesome community practice.

This place was recommended by a friend, and I'm glad I came. I've always had shoulder/back issues from injuries I acquired in the military, so I really needed help. Jake is so knowledgeable, it was a night and day difference between him and previous physical therapists. He really focused on making sure my injury didn't just get better, but taught me how to improve my physical mobility in order to prevent future injuries. He takes the time to make sure every exercise and stretch is performed with perfect form, and ensures you are educated about the purpose of every movement. This place epitomizes what real injury rehabilitation should be, through passionate care for every patient.

Had a problem with my right knee due to bad form in Crossfit exercises and was able to have it worked on and was just like new within 3-4 weeks of Physical Therapy with Direct Performance. Dr. McKenzie was very helpful and insightful and was able to use different techniques to increase flexibility and help overall performance. Would recommend them any day!

Nate and Jake did a great job on my damaged Achilles tendon. Highly recommend them if you're looking for active and need physical therapy. Back running again!!

Direct Performance maintains excellent facilities and knowledgeable staff. Not only was the staff knowledgeable, but they were also caring. They sympathized with you and your injury. They are hard working and made every effort to maximize each and every PT session. This is hands down the best PT clinic in the area. I would encourage anyone who actively participates in strength and conditioning to reach out to them.

I cannot praise DPPT highly enough! In the past ten years this is the third physical therapy center I have been to, and if I need PT again I wouldn't think of going anywhere else. Steve (Dr. McKenzie) has deep and extensive knowledge of physical therapy, he knows the body, and he knows how to work with people.
I came to him after shoulder surgery, in a lot of pain, and anxious because months of pre-surgery therapy at another center had felt scattershot and hadn't produced results. I wanted to avoid the hectic and distracted atmosphere of my previous experiences, such as multiple patients working in the same room, constant crosstalk between assistants and patients and therapists, doing my exercises with the PT assistants and then waiting for the therapist to be free to work on me for 20 minutes, etc. The DPPT model is completely different.
In our 45-minute one-on-one sessions over several months, Steve moved from range-of-motion to strengthening, with attention to functional needs. I particularly appreciated my sense that there was a methodical program moving me forward, and yet in every session Steve was flexible in attending to any special problem areas or issues concerning me. I trusted him completely, so completely that when at one point he suggested we try dry needing on a problem area, I agreed to let him plunge needles into my muscles--a first for me, and it went fine and it did help.
I am recommending DPPT to all my doctors and friends, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to feel confident in the expertise of their therapist, and who wants the physical therapy to be focused, enjoyable, and effective.

I highly recommend this practice!! I treated with Brian after breaking my right ankle in 2 places. He was extremely professional but also very nice, and I was thrilled with the results. My ankle is now 'good as new', and my balance is better than ever.

I love this place. I came to direct performance with hip pain caused by an injury a couple of months ago. After weeks of trying to fix my hip myself, I finally reached out to Direct Performance. They called me back within a couple of hours and I had an appointment scheduled within the week. After 4 visits working with Jake my hip pain was gone and I am able to start performing all of the workouts and movements at the gym again. These guys know what they're doing and they do it well. Any issues you have are fixable through these guys. Thanks again!

I saw Brian for some back issues I was having and he used the Dry Needling technique. It definitely helped. Brian was always on time and I was always 1 on 1 with him. Brian was very professional and so nice. I've had PT several times and Brian used several different approaches which I liked. We did the dry needling, manipulation (cracking of my back), core/muscle strengthening and stretching. He varied the exercises which I really liked as well. I would definitely go back and I highly recommend Brian.

Started physical therapy at Direct Performance after trying other therapist without any improvement. I was diagnosed with a laberal tear in my hip and it was very painful and left me limping. Jake and Brian have helped rid me of pain, build my strength and endurance while improving my body mechanics. They're very professional and knowledgeable. Feeling very grateful. :-)

Within 5 months after my spine surgery, I am stronger and better than before. Steven and Dana are the best one on one Physical Therapist I have ever worked with. They are the most focused and professional Physical Therapist, who are willing to go above and beyond to get you to your goals. I highly recommend direct performance to everyone. It was a pleasure working with the amazing people.

I just finished 2 years of physical therapy with Stephen. I had 3 major ankle surgeries - I can't imagine not having him to help me through my recovery. He helped me recover from each surgery - working with pain, swelling and scar tissue; helping me learn to walk again; building strength and balance; encouraging and supporting me when I didn't think I would get better. He would get out books with diagrams to explain my pain and lack of function and explain how we were working to fix it. He asked how a particular treatment or exercise affected my pain and function and adjusted the next treatment accordingly. When I was stretching and doing strength / balance exercises he made sure all the details of my movements were correct and gave me feedback as I improved. I couldn't ask for a better physical therapist. I have numerous family members and friends who have seen Stephen; they all feel the same way!

I'd been having chronic neck/shoulder pain since an injury almost a year prior. My chiropractor wasn't helping so my CrossFit coach recommended I go to Direct Performance PT. After only three weeks of working with Jake, I felt a huge difference in my mobility and the amount of pain I was feeling. I'd highly recommend them to anyone.

This practice exudes excellence and professionalism. I was recommended to this practice, specifically Jake, through a friend who was dealing with back pain. I could not be happier. I had been dealing with lower back pain for about a month. After 4 sessions, I had relief and some concrete exercises to work with. Jake was kind and a wonderful listener. He explained everything that I did in PT and why it was important. I recently returned because of a flare up and again was treated with the utmost respect and also listened to regarding my symptoms. I also had a massage with Rachel who also exuded excellence and professionalism. Rachel was extremely personable and made me feel comfortable as soon as I walked in the door. Her massage was phenomenal and she also listened to my concerns and targeted my massage to me specifically. I would highly recommend this practice for physical therapy and/or massage therapy. Thank you Jake and Rachel!!

I have gone to many physical therapy centers over the years but have never had the incredible care like I received at Direct Performance. Stephen gave me one on one attention and tracked my progress accurately. He developed a rehab program specifically for my personal goals. My return to sport from knee replacement went very smoothly. He was extremely knowledgeable and always explained the how and why of the exercises. Other therapy centers made me feel like just a number because I would have a different person on every visit. I would highly recommend Direct Performance Therapy Center to everyone.
