Peak Performance Chiropractic & Wellness Center is a family chiropractic office in Fort Collins, Colorado, led by Dr. Jenn Rohrick, D.C., and supported by chiropractic assistant Lauren Lant. The practice describes its mission as improving the quality of your life, and it emphasizes improving health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness before it occurs. The office says health is much more than just not feeling pain, and that its job is to offer recommendations and provide the best chiropractic care possible while leaving it up to you to decide if and how much of it you want. Care is organized around tailored individual recommendations and customized programs for each practice member. Patients come in for a wide range of concerns, from back pain, neck pain and headaches to recovery from sports injuries and lifestyle-related injuries, along with extremity issues such as shoulder and wrist pain, knee and ankle pain, tendinitis, and overuse injuries. The office frames pain as the body's way of signaling that it can no longer adapt to the stresses placed on it, and says its goal is to find that cause and let you know whether chiropractic can help. A large portion of the practice, the site notes, comes in for wellness and ongoing health maintenance rather than a specific complaint. Dr. Jenn studied Kinesiology at the University of Michigan, then earned a degree in Life Science and her Doctorate in Chiropractic at Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, Missouri. She decided to become a chiropractor after a soccer knee injury in high school, when a chiropractor helped her rehabilitate the knee and avoid surgery. Post-graduate, she completed the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association's Coursework and Certification Program, is Certified from the Academy of Family Practice in pediatric chiropractic care, and holds her Webster Technique certification for prenatal chiropractic care. The office offers prenatal care it describes as an essential part of a prenatal wellness routine, aimed at comfort during pregnancy and at decreasing labor times, plus care for babies and children, whose spines the practice checks regularly as they crawl, walk, grow and take falls. Sports chiropractic focuses on two areas, injury prevention and optimizing potential, for casual, competitive and professional athletes alike. Wellness chiropractic focuses on optimizing overall function rather than repairing a specific injury, a phase the office contrasts with what it calls repair and restoration of normal body function. A first visit begins with a no-obligation consultation with Dr. Jenn to discuss health goals or concerns and determine whether you are a candidate for care. That is followed by a complete chiropractic exam that may include posture analysis, range of motion, muscle testing, neurological evaluation, nerve scans, joint motion analysis, and x-rays if necessary. The practice uses a non-invasive nerve scan system it describes as the latest Space Foundation Certified technology, and says the scan gives a measurable baseline of nervous system health that can be tracked as care progresses. Between the first and second visits Dr. Jenn reviews the consultation, examination and diagnostic tests, then explains the plan of care both financially and time-wise. New patient forms are posted on the site for adults and for children in three age bands, and the office says completing them at home saves about 15 minutes in the office. Beyond adjusting, Peak Performance carries support products such as vitamins, supplements, cervical pillows, spider tech and kinesiotaping and back supports, and runs an online patient portal called FullScript that carries brands including Douglas Laboratories, Innate, Standard Process, Thorne, Mercola, Pure Encapsulations, Klaire Labs and Metagenics, with free shipping on orders over fifty dollars. The office also offers InvisaRed laser programs for weight loss, body contouring and skin rejuvenation, which it describes as accelerating fat loss, increasing metabolism, reducing cellulite and tightening skin, with individualized programs that include nutrition and education components. A first laser appointment includes a consultation, a 20 minute body slimming session with before and after measurements, and 10 minutes of whole body vibration therapy. Appointments and free consultations can be booked by phone at (970) 232-9258 or through the online scheduling tool on the site.
