Angela is the best! Helped sort out a knee issue and got me back running within a couple of months. She gives lots of at home exercises / doesn't push coming in to see her more than needed. Just finished my second half marathon since working with her a year ago.

Dr. Angela is incredibly knowledgable and personable. She helped guide our swimmer through a training injury this past summer. We are so thankful to have found her!

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about performance training at Odyssey Performance PT.

Is performance training the same as personal training?

Not quite. Performance training combines movement assessment, corrective work, and strength coaching with a focus on long-term resilience and injury prevention, not just getting a good workout.

Do I need to be recovered from injury before starting performance training?

Not necessarily. Many people start performance training as a natural progression from physical therapy, or we can address lingering issues while building your training program.

How do you decide what programming is right for me?

We start with an assessment to understand how you move, what your goals are, and what's been limiting you. From there, we build a plan that fits your schedule, training style, and body's needs.

Can performance training help if I feel like I'm always dealing with small aches?

Yes. Often those recurring aches come from gaps in strength, movement quality, or load management. Performance training addresses the root issues so you can train more consistently.

What should I expect in a typical session?

Sessions include movement prep, skill work or corrective exercises, strength training tailored to your goals, and education so you understand the why behind what you're doing.
