Direct Performance Physical Therapy Testimonials
I highly recommend Direct Performance PT for anyone’s PT needs. The staff is professional, friendly, always on time and knowledgeable. They have helped me tremendously getting to a point where I can further recover at home and exercising outside within two months of my knee replacement. I will def use them again in the future!!

Dr. Rachel, helped me heal quicker and stronger after foot surgery. She is very knowledgeable and pushed me to become stronger and more flexible. Scheduling was easy, I felt listened to and she assesses the entire body not just your troubled area. My husband went to see this practice after I raved about them.

Kirsten was perfect. She was clear with her course of therapy and the goals of that therapy. I could always measure my progress against what we talked about and never had any doubt what I was supposed to do and what that treatment was supposed to do for me. I went from being unable to walk due to achilles tendonitis to back to running 4 miles in five months of work. Strongly recommend her work.

Dr. Kirsten is absolutely amazing. A beautiful personality but also a book full of knowledge!!! I first started seeing her at 34 weeks pregnant. I wish I had contacted her earlier in my pregnancy! After having my baby(via c section) , I had alot of aches and pains and couldn’t understand why. Not only did she make sure my pelvic floor was functional, she helped me relieve alot of my pain. I have learned so much about my body and ways to get my strength back. I highly recommend moms to be and postpartum mommas; reach out to her. Your body will not regret it!

So grateful for Direct performance and experienced professionals, Stephen and Daniel following my second knee replacement by Dr. Manish Patel. There are so many little questions and worries following a knee replacement and Stephen and Daniel were always there to help address my concerns. Their manipulations every few days provided a measure of relief from the swelling and the stiffness, and the exercise movements we did together gradually restored my flexibility. They were always kind, patient, knowledgeable, professional, and fun! I will continue to recommend them to others who are interested in a Jiffy knee replacement!

I’ve been seeing Stephen McKenzie at Direct Performance for the past three months after an MCL injury. It was hands down the best outpatient PT I’ve ever received (been to 2 other PT companies in Hampton Roads). The in-office sessions, formal plan to full-recovery, and take-home exercises were tailored specifically to my injury severity and ambitious goals to return to sports and activities. Fingers crossed I don’t need to return, but if I need physical therapy in the future, I will 100% be returning to Stephen and Direct Performance. I highly recommend!
