Odyssey Performance Physical Therapy

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is amazing. I came in after struggling with a pinched nerve for over a year and trying multiple other PTs. After working with him for two months I am pain free and have about 90 percent strength back in my shoulder. He is extremely knowledgeable and also a great guy. And as soon as he thought he had finished the job he told me so. I could not recommend him more highly.

Experiencia fantástica: I've worked with a few PTs in my life and Chris is by far the best I've ever worked with. He helped me strengthen weaker parts of my body and gave my pain areas a lot of attention and focused strength and stability work. His dry needling also helped me feel infinitely better day after treatment. If you're looking for someone to help you prevent injury or make sure your injured area doesn't reinjure, Chris is the best person for you! Highly, highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: We were fortunate enough to have a friend recommend us to Dr. Chris - he has been a fantastic PT and resource for our son who was experiencing lower back/glute pain. Dr. Chris is very personable and always had great suggestions. I love that he videoed the exercises he wanted my son to do and sent them to him so that he had a video of himself for reference. Dr. Chris was very responsive and very professional- we would highly recommend him to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is awesome PT. He is knowledgeable with current research. I saw him after a knee injury sideline me from running. He had me back out running in no time. He is incredibly athlete friendly by tailoring your recovery by what you need and helps you get back to what you love! Chris is also very responsive when I have a new issue arise by explaining the reasons I shouldn't be worried but if it does turn into something, he is there to help. I highly recommend Chris to everyone needing an amazing PT!

Experiencia fantástica: I can rely on Chris to quickly understand and communicate the why and how of my sports-related injuries, then follow-through on the appropriate recovery to meet my goals. I went in requesting an accelerated recovery treatment in order to perform at an upcoming tournament and we succeeded. In addition, he shares tips for future injury prevention that I have been able to apply throughout the season to help with my continued performance. I recommend Chris for all things physical therapy, especially those looking to maintain optimal sports performance!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing working with Dr. Chris and saw substantial progress in my time with him. Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Chris is amazing! I had 3 herniated discs and a pinched nerve, and he helped me get back to 100% so I could play in the mountains again. Highly recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: I loved working with Chris! We only got to work with each other for about two weeks but in that short span my ankle was able to feel like my own again. I gained some much needed confidence back. He also has a lot of good resources like needling and amazing recovery tools!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is knowledgeable, professional, personable, and most importantly doesn't pressure or guilt and provides a treatment plan that is completely tailored to your lifestyle and activity level. With his treatment plan and guidance, I was able to go from debilitating injury to completely pain free without stopping my activity (a huge frustration I've always had with every other physical therapist--full rest for a month or more just isn't realistic or helpful for me). One happy client right here.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to Odyssey Performance by a friend, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Chris was absolutely awesome from the get-go. He took the time to walk me through all the details and recommended dry needling for my back pain. The relief was almost immediate, and I was so impressed by the results that I immediately signed up for a 4 session program he recommended. I highly recommend Odyssey Performance for anyone looking for effective and personalized care. Five stars all the way!

Experiencia fantástica: Was referred to Dr. Chris by a friend and he has been amazing. Extremely knowledgeable but explains what my body is doing in ways that make sense. He doesn’t use terminology or overcomplicate things… he makes sure you understand what’s going on with your body. He took videos of me doing exercises to pinpoint the areas where I need to focus. He was able to show me frame by frame and show me what was happening and then explained why and how to fix it. I felt like this really helped give me a fantastic picture of why I keep injuring myself. Can’t recommend Chris enough! If you’re dealing with any injuries, reach out to this guy!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is an absolute saint. Prior to meeting him I was experiencing terrible back pain for over two months. The pain was so unbearable that everyday simple tasks felt nearly impossible. Sneezing was excruciating, sleeping was incredibly painful, and I couldn't do anything that I found joy in without pain. I was seeing a chiropractor that was telling me I very likely had a herniated disk and that being pain free would never be an option again while rapidly losing hope. Enter Chris: Within one singular session he had restored my confidence in getting back to doing what I love and feeling great. I continued for an additional five sessions and am currently 100% pain free and doing everything I love with confidence and joy. Chris is a very down-to-earth guy that is easy to chat with and is incredibly knowledgeable and confident in his work. I will 100% be a lifelong patient whenever I decide to break myself off again and need fixing.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris was great to work with! He helped me to work through some nagging injuries and to finish the marathon I was training for. He provided different exercises with a mix of dry needling to help with different areas of my legs. He is very knowledgeable and good at communicating what we are trying to accomplish with each session as well ongoing. I really appreciate his care and expertise and would definitely recommend him to friends and family!

Experiencia fantástica: I regularly go here to ensure my form is on point with complex movements. Chris has a wealth of knowledge across different modalities and tailors his advice to help me avoid injury while performing my best.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you Dr. Van Thiel for helping me strengthen my core, glutes and inner things to heal my low back and hip pain! I had been going to PT for 5 years and no other PT assessed how my entire body moves. You’re the best! I’ll be seeing you for any sports injury in the future! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend working with Dr. Chris! I started coming to him after experiencing shoulder pain from a volleyball injury. After a few appointments and dry needling, I left pain free with a deeper understanding of my injury and how to strengthen my shoulder. He got me ready for season and educated me on how to keep my body feeling healthy. Thanks Odyssey Performance!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is truly the best! He helped me through a knee and ankle injury. He dedicates the time to understand and address any concerns I have. He very knowledgeable and always provides clear explanations, making the rehabilitation journey not only effective but also educational. I appreciate Chris' expertise, which always positively impacts my overall health and also enhances my understanding of my own body. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is hands down the best PT I've used. He has worked with me through several injuries and each time he creates a personalized path for recovery based on the injury. He gives his undivided attention to your progress and makes it very clear that your recovery is his primary concern.

Experiencia fantástica: What an amazing dude! Chris took me from limping and low range of motion 6 months post op from an ACL reconstruction with hamstring graft to walking normal with great ROM in a matter of weeks! One session even made all the difference and now that i'm moving better he's working on building confidence in my leg, stretching, strength, he helps with it all! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Chris Van Thiel helped me rehab my torn meniscus over the course of 6 weeks. Each week I saw significant improvement in my knee to where I could start weight training and BJJ again

Experiencia fantástica: We had Dr. Chris on our Podcast as an industry expert and it became one of our most successful episodes. Our discussion covered a broad range of not only the development of his career as a professional but some tough questions from our listeners. He was professional, knowledgeable and a very genuine and humble guy. Thanks again!!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris has a great philosophy and mission behind his career. You can tell that he truly cares about each of his patients and is willing to have tough conversations as needed. Great PT!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is an incredibly knowledgeable and passionate PT. I had a great experience during my consult and with my continued session with him! Great bed side manner that makes you feel comfortable while he assesses your injury. Would recommend 10/10 to anyone looking for a PT in Denver!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris has already helped me to strengthen my hamstring and get back to my normal running routine! We do a mix of dry needling and different exercises when we meet. He is knowledgeable, personable and has such clear communication it makes it really easy to learn the exercises and understand what’s going on. You can tell he genuinely cares and wants you to feel your best. We’ve already recommended him to friends and family members. Thank you Chris for everything so far. You are the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Over the past decade, I have been to many physical therapists, but none like Dr. Chris. I recently had a nasty fall and broke many things in my foot, requiring two surgeries. My insurance paired me with a physical therapist who didn't even touch my foot and was on his phone or with other patients the entire time. It was terrible, and my pain didn't get any better. Thankfully, a family friend recommended Odyssey. Dr. Chris knows what he's doing, and I have never had one on one physical therapist before. He answered all my questions, worked on my foot, watched me do exercises to ensure my form was okay, and now I can finally get back to my life. Before I started seeing him, I couldn't even walk my dog without pain, and now I am hiking and finally feeling like myself. I highly recommend him.

Experiencia fantástica: I want to start by saying I've never reviewed a medical/therapeutic specialist before, but I felt the need to do everything in my power to advocate for this professional Doctor of Physical Therapy. I am a professional stuntwoman for film and television, and after ACL reconstruction surgery, a quad tendon graft, meniscus tear and Lateral Extra-articular tenodesis on my left knee this year, I felt helpless. I had gone to a few PTs, but Dr. Van Thiel took into consideration every bit of not only the physical, but the mental preparedness required to get back to my career AND my life. It is amazing how the mind can trick the body into thinking it can't do something after a trauma like this surgery. I have been working with him now for a few months, and just cleared 9 months post-op. I am doing things now I was never expected to do (safely) and doing more every day. I'll be back to work this month and I don't think I would have gotten to where I am without his guidance, expertise and support. I can't recommend him enough to anyone who has a desire to get back to their sport, their life, or even create a new routine and more than you thought you could before! 10/10. Book him now!

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Van Thiel. I recently had surgery to repair my meniscus and he promised that I would be back to running within 5 sessions - he delivered! He is extremely knowledgeable and provides genuine care for his clients. In addition, he was was accommodating with scheduling and very responsive via phone call/text. I appreciated his follow-up after sessions and sending videos of exercises to engage in each week. An overall excellent physical therapy experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is great! I have had so many different physical therapists over the years and Chris is hands down better than all of them combined. He is super nice and actually takes the time to assess what the injury is and how to treat it. I've seen Chris for a torn rotator cuff and on my first visit he gave me a completely different set of exercises than previous PTs. It was refreshing to not generic exercises that can be found with a google search. Not only did I find the exercises were much more effective, but they didn't completely wear me out to where I couldn't practice them daily as directed because of being too sore. I started doing the exercises consistently and I was able to build up the shoulder strength I lost from the injury. Most recently I went back to Chris for some pain in my foot related to a snow-boarding injury. We started each session with dry needling which I love because it makes you feel unstoppable. After "waking up" those muscles with the needling we did some strengthening exercises that I could also practice at home. At my first session, I could barely raise my toes to do the exercises and on my last session I could raise them all the way up and rotate lifting my big and little toes with ease. This is a big win for me considering it looked like I wasn't even trying to lift my toes weeks ago. Thank you, Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: Consummate professional. Informed, caring, patient and supportive. I have been treated by a number of therapists across the country for a variety of issues and I unequivocally state that Dr. Chris is at the top of the class.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris really takes the time to understand a person’s movement/athletic goals and will adjust and progress the therapy based on those changing needs.

Experiencia fantástica: I've struggled with back issues on and off for the last 10 years, Chris took the time to understand the issue and pin point what may have been aggravating the issue most recently. After just two weeks Chris has made more progress than any other PT made in 10 years. I'm back to walking without pain and I have had fewer (and shorter) bouts of pain during activity. I cannot recommend Chris enough!

Experiencia fantástica: I hurt my shoulder REAL bad yesterday while attempting a bench press and dealt with horrible pain to the point I couldn’t sleep all night. Chris made time on his day off just to help me out. Before the session, I could barely move my arm even from walking because it hurt so much. After the session, the pain reduced significantly and my range of motion increased tremendously! My guy knows what he’s doing and is the guy to help you get back on your feet!

Experiencia fantástica: Hands down one of the best healthcare providers that I've ever had a chance to work with. I worked with Dr. Van Thiel over the course of a few months to help with pain in my left knee. Dr. Van Thiel's services are directed at not only at addressing the pains/limitations that exist in the moment but also the underlying root causes of those pains/limitations. He tailored his program and advice to my goals and habits/tendencies and also helped build a solid physical and mental foundation for me going forward. Not only is his treatment advice top class, Dr. Van Thiel is very likeable, charismatic, and clearly cares about understanding each patient as a person. In between sessions, and even after treatment, Dr. Van Thiel would periodically check in and ask only about my recovery unprompted. He'd even remember things about my family that I'd forgotten that I'd told him! Working with Dr. Van Thiel was one of the best decisions I've made and I can't recommend him enough. I'm back to running, jumping, and enjoying other physical activities I didn't think were possible before starting with him. I know this review is late but thanks, Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: I went to Chris for crippling tendonitis in both my patellar tendons. He was very knowledge about how to begin the healing process and has gotten me on my way on a long road to recovery. The only constructive feedback I can give is I would've appreciated a detailed schedule/plan of what to do at home in between my sessions, but my condition was highly dependent on my body's response and he does respond to texts when he can.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Chris looked at my shoulder after I was experiencing some sharp pain after weightlifting. Our session consisted of care and detailed exercises prescribed by Chris. He was very intentional and followed up me immediately the next day and even sent me exercises that we did. My shoulder feels much better and I’m ready to confidently go into my weightlifting competition next week! Thank you Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been doing Physical Therapy with Dr Chris since my Knee surgery / ACL re-construction a few months ago. Dr Chris is great! He is very knowledgeable, personable and genuine in his treatment and abilities. The sessions are one on one and structured for your level of comfort and abilities. It may even turn into a long term relationship focusing on long term performance.

Experiencia fantástica: I chose to visit Chris for his specific "return to sport" approach post ACL reconstruction. He helped rebuild my mental & physical readiness to ensure a safe return to soccer. He also gave me specific exercises to prevent reinjury when he noticed bad tendencies. Highly recommend Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Chris works wonders! I went to him when I had a shoulder injury that wasn’t healing on its own. He listened to me explain how the injury happened and where the pain was and came up with a 4 week plan to recovery. Each week we talked about what was better and what was worse and he gave me exercises and did dry needling to target the specific muscle groups. He is also very responsive over text and we could talk about issues in between sessions too. I finished my last session about 3 weeks ago and am no longer experiencing pain in that area. Would definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend Chris for any and all PT needs. Saw him for a back injury and got me back on track! Extremely knowledgeable. Thanks for all the help Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris was great! Very knowledgeable and was able to tailor my sessions to exactly what was needed. Highly recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great PT experience with Chris! I reached out to him thinking I was having MCL issues and after evaluation he figured out that it was actually hamstring related. He explained what was likely happening and adjusted the plan to evolve with my progress every time I went in. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I tore my ACL durning a lacrosse game and got surgery shortly after. I met with Chris and told him my goal was to return to my sport in the spring of 2022. He created a great rehab plan tailored to me and my goals. I am now well on my way to playing at some point this spring. Chris is awesome at what he does, not to mention he was a great guy to be around for the time I was there!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris was great! I sustained an injury during an ultimate frisbee tournament. He quickly realized that the initial diagnosis from my PCP was incorrect and helped me figure out a better treatment option. He was able to help me return to playing without any lingering symptoms after only four sessions. He really knows what he is doing and is very experienced. I highly recommend him.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! Lots of support and creates a safe and welcoming environment. I have done PT before and this place is the best; very thorough and I’m feeling great after my injury.

Experiencia fantástica: I just “graduated” from physical therapy with Chris this week and I would highly recommend him if you need a physical therapist. Chris excels at asking great questions and really listening to concerns. He focused on me as a whole person and through his sessions and my work at home I’ve been able to overcome my injury. I’m super grateful for Chris and his expertise!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is a fantastic PT. He looks at the whole picture and provides both hands on treatment to help in the moment, and also provides education to help address issues with movement patterns. He’s also very personable. I highly recommend him.

Experiencia fantástica: I had SLAP repair surgery on my shoulder this past winter and coming into the spring I knew there would be a difficult timeframe where I was cleared by the doctor but not 100% back to normal. I started working with Chris and he did an amazing job helping me through this awkward but critical phase. Each week Chris worked with me on numerous exercises and constantly planned and adapted the regiment so I could get the strength back in a safe manner. I felt confident in my training and exercises with his expertise leading me. I would highly recommend Chris for any PT or rehab you need.

Experiencia fantástica: I chose to visit Chris for his specific "return to sport" approach post ACL reconstruction. He helped rebuild my mental & physical readiness to ensure a safe return to soccer. He also gave me specific exercises to prevent reinjury when he noticed bad tendencies. Highly recommend Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: Went to Chris due to a nagging shoulder injury I was dealing with. He took time to understand my injury and was able to help immediately, setting me on a path to recovery through various treatments and exercises. Chris was very knowledgeable and great to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Chris for 7 months now doing PT for my knee following ACL/meniscus reconstruction. I started at another PT but switched to Chris when I wasn’t happy with how it was going. Chris listened to my goals and created a rehab plan for me and has done an amazing job pushing me in the sessions and giving me great advice on what to do while on my own. I’m very pleased with how everything has gone and where I’m at now 10 months post-surgery. Would highly recommend Chris and Odyssey Performance!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a truly fantastic experience with Chris. He's knowledgeable, nice, hands-on, dedicated, accessible, and patient. Chris was dedicated to helping me reach my specific recovery goals (skiing, golfing, lifting) after a traumatic spine injury. I am now leaps and bounds better than I was expecting to be. I recovered significantly more after 8 sessions with Chris than a year of PT with a big chain company.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris provides really awesome physical therapy services! I have been going to him for a little while now and have gained a lot more strength and confidence in my various sports. I highly recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Chris is a miracle worker. I went to see him for a pinch I was experiencing in my lower back. I have been treated for this same issue by other practitioners for over a year. After two sessions with him and doing the extra exercises he prescribed the pain is gone and I'm able to run and lift without pain again.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is very knowledgable and patient. He helped me diagnose a knee injury, explain how to take care of it and what I may expect to feel during my recovery. I left my appointment feeling optimistic about being able to return the active lifestyle I love and look forward to coming back to learn more about how to take care of my body.

Experiencia fantástica: After tearing my ACL in December and switching over to Odyssey from a different PT a couple months into my recovery, Chris went above and beyond to make my rehab so much better. My recovery plan was personalized and adapted to my profession as a nurse, but also with a focus on a long term goal of returning to outdoor activities such as skiing and trail running safely. Chris has a vast knowledge of rehab exercises and an excellent understanding of the big picture of returning to "normal". My questions were always fully addressed and Chris always took time to talk about the mental side of recovery. If you're looking for a PT who cares about not only your rehab plan but you as a person, Chris is your guy. I would not have the confidence nor the ability in my knee without him!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve worked with Chris now for three sessions. I’ve had knee pain for 4 years, I’ve seen numerous doctors and been to PT at two different places with little to no benefit. I gave Chris a try after talking to him about my concerns and lack of belief it would ever get better. I was throughly convinced that as long as I continued to lift weights it would never get better. Chris worked on my strength and proper movement of the joints and noticed my knee pain was most likely coming from my feet diving inward in my squats. Literally only three sessions and I’ve made tremendous progress. Even things I never thought would have been affected have drastically improved. If you are a bigger person, you know the pain of sitting in an airplane for several hours. At 6’1 250lbs I can’t remember a time my knees didn’t kill me on a plane. I took a two hour flight with zero knee pain. Who knew 3 sessions would have fixed pain and discomfort I’ve had for most of my life. I really appreciate the work Chris has done, and I highly recommend his expertise.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Van Thiel is a wonderful asset to the community. He is extremely knowledgable, thorough, and compassionate. In one session he was able to provide me with an easy to implement home routine which has helped tremendously. I encourage anyone on the fence about reaching out to not hesitate; you won't regret it!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is the MAN! He's an absolute expert at helping you get back to the activities that you love to do, and he brings great knowledge and practical application to a wide variety of injuries.

Experiencia fantástica: My hip is totally trashed. I need a replacement. But Chris has helped me manage pain and given me a new outlook on what I CAN do with a joint that by any standard should be severely limiting my activities. This doc is a progressive thinker and takes an active role with his clients. Thanks for keeping me on track.

Experiencia fantástica: I go see Chris any time I’m dealing with injuries - sport related or otherwise. He promptly gets me in to see him, takes the time to diagnose the problem correctly, and creates a plan for recovery including things I can do outside of appointments with him. He’s helped me through multiple injuries and I would definitely recommend you see him!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m now 15 and used to do competitive gymnastics for 6 years and dance for 1 before quitting due to severe pain from an undiagnosed condition. After 3 years of worsening joint pain, I was recommended to try pt. After only 3 weeks of working with Chris, I was able to do things that I’d never dreamed of doing. Things like going up stairs without any pain and running without my ankles locking up. Chris is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about his patients. Physical therapy with him was amazing and I’m excited to finally live a pain free future!

Experiencia fantástica: Asked a lot of questions to get the best diagnosis of my injuries then tried multiple methods to see what worked best for me. Explained what was happening and what he was doing so I had a better knowledge of my own body. 10/10 if broken again would ask Chris for help.

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Chris truly changed my life. My knee pain had been worsening over the last couple years, and was keeping me from enjoying my favorite sports/activities. I'm amazed how quickly I started seeing improvements training with Chris. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m a chiropractor who came to Chris with chronic wrist pain...not only from adjusting, but also from refusing to give up Crossfit (ha). Chris was thorough in his examination and knew exactly what I needed in order to heal it. After just one session of PT, I didn’t have pain for a week in a half....which is crazy impressive due to how long I’ve had the pain. He worked on movements I refuse to give up, like handstand walks. I appreciate a practitioner who doesn’t tell me I need to give up the things I love! I highly recommend you go see him.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is very knowledgeable and wonderful to work with. He helped me with my shoulder that was hurting from playing volleyball. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: My shoulder has been a huge issue for me for a long time and Chris has really got me and my shoulder feeling great. The access we have to the gym is invaluable for my sessions.

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is awesome to work with. He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain the reasoning behind each exercise he takes you through, so you understand why each one helps. Chris is very flexible on appointment times and he makes sure you know how to contact him outside of your appointment if you have any questions. I saw improvements after just a couple sessions, so it was definitely worth going to see him. If I have any issues in the future I will definitely go back.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend. I've been having constant pain in my hip flexor for at least a month that has been hindering my sports performance. After seeing Chris for about and hour and doing various exercises and needling, I was able to play soccer that same night with absolutely no pain. He knew his stuff, and knew how to address me as an athlete as opposed to treating me with the same standard exercises that everyone else is doing. This was a huge game changer. I'll definitely be going back.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Chris is extremely knowledgeable and in three sessions brought me back to the land of the living, nearly eliminating my lower back pain. He gave me stretching exercises to do at home to help loosen the tight muscles. I am back to being able to twist pain free during my bootcamp classes and just in general throughout the day. I had never had dry needling done, but one session of that treatment and I was amazed at how much better my back was feeling. The only thing I wish I had done differently is contacting Dr. Chris sooner. If you have been putting off looking for a solution to your pain and suffering, don’t wait any longer. Call him! He’s super flexible and can quickly get you scheduled.

Experiencia fantástica: I have worked with Chris for the past 3 years for a variety of injuries and pain. As a Physical Therapist myself, I am very selective when it comes to who I work with. Chris is a wonderful PT who looks further than just the symptoms, he really works on cause of injury to resolve symptoms completely. I highly recommend Chris for all orthopedic needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Van Thiel is a great physical therapist and he really cares about his patients' whole being. Chris is very smart and informative, and has a warm personality which absolutely helps when going through therapy. It's so important to have a physical therapist work with you, push you, and care about you to get you back to 100% or better. I would recommend Dr. Van Thiel to anyone looking to recover from an injury, maintain or improve their fitness, and get back to leading a fully healthy, happy life!

Experiencia fantástica: I went to see Chris after a recommendation from a friend experiencing similar pain and mobility issues in her hip and hamstring. He took time evaluate my history and diagnose me. He also used a combination of dry needling and strength and mobility exercises in each session to throughly address my injury. Chris is very knowledgeable, personable, and willing to spend the extra time to really find out and address what is going on. He really understands the need to get back to doing what you love and will go above and beyond to help. I would highly recommend him as a PT especially for sports related injuries.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Van Thiel is a caring, professional, and experienced physical therapist. He takes the time to accurately diagnose injuries and offers practical treatment strategies that fit individual needs. His dry needling work was especially helpful for my quad injury, and having gym equipment in studio was invaluable to my recovery. HIGHLY recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is an excellent physical therapist! He worked with my daughter who runs on the high school varsity XC team after she injured herself snowboarding. Chris is highly knowledgeable in body mechanics and assessing movement patterns and was able to give her specific exercises and a treatment plan to get her back running. He not only helped rehab her injury, but helped her reach her running goals so she had an amazing XC season! Chris really cares a lot about his patients and wants to get them back on their feet and feeling better. I highly recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent place, with good instruments that helped me recover my knee. Recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: Working on my 3rd year. Unprecedented knowledge of what’s wrong and how to correct it. Observational and communication skills off the chart. Empathy and pushing you through limits at the same time. Let him help you!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris is extremely knowledgeable and great at explaining all the questions I had regarding the connection between the pain i was experiencing and the actions he was taking to correct it. I walked out of his office and immediately noticed a difference. I would suggest Odyssey Performance to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Went to Chris for some ongoing back and shoulder issues. Chris really knew what he was doing, and gave me new and interesting exercises to do. This along with the body work and I'm in the road to recovery. I would recommend Chris highly, even going to take my daughter to him!

Experiencia fantástica: As an athlete who is constantly managing injuries, I went to see Dr. Van Thiel for nagging kneecap pain. He took the time to investigate the issue, and explain why it may be happening. We went in the gym, identified weak points I need to work on, and he provided exercises I can do at home to work on it. He dry needled my hip and rectus femoris to help with the knee pain - saw immediate improvement. Very nice and knowledgeable guy.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to see Dr. Van Thiel after hearing raving reviews from my gym coach. I had been going to a PT for my hip which consisted of being in a room with well over 20 other patients while my therapist was working on 2 others in addition to myself all at once. I was so relieved to be able to work one on one with Dr. Van Thiel after this experience. He spent a great amount of time asking questions and understanding my pain and my goals at the end of the sessions. He is very knowledgeable and I highly recommend seeing him!

Experiencia fantástica: Been seeing Dr. Van Thiel for a couple months now because I’ve developed some poor movement mechanics playing sports all my life. He’s given me great on-site advice and provides easy exercises I can do at home or in my own gym. It’s made a huge difference in my ability to balance and activate the right muscles when sprinting, lifting, or biking. He also dry-needled my shoulder to loosen up some serious tension that had built up. We did a series of exercises before and afterward and there was a significant difference in mobility as well as how good it felt. Highly recommend seeing him for acute injuries or things that have been nagging.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to see Chris after I pulled my back at the gym. A few gym buddies recommended him and after my first visit I immediately purchased a package to see him 5 more times. I've never had dry needling done, but it immediately took away the pain in my back. I am now in love with dry needling. My back pain is totally gone after working with Chris and he also helped correct some other movements to prevent future issues. I also sent my husband for some issues. We will be regulars; thanks Chris!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris was very professional and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!
