Peak Performance Massage & Recovery

Peak Performance is absolutely top notch for sport and recovery massage therapy. Ive been a client for over a year now and Donnie has been able to rehab multiple injuries Ive encountered from bodybuilding and weightlifting. If you are looking for a team that can truly address your needs and provide massage therapy that will not only assist in your recovery but also help in your athletic pursuit and performance that team is Peak Performance.

Danita is fantastic. She has magic hands. She asks questions to learn where to focus her massage treatment. I’ve been going to Danita for approximately 6 years and she is simply the best.

I have been to Peak Performance twice so far this past year and every time has been an amazing experience. Charlotte is absolutely awesome. She listened to my concerns and had a plan to address each one. She was thorough in her explanations and always made sure she applied the correct pressure. Will definately be back soon !

Donnie is a professional and very good at his job. He does a great job at explaining why he’s doing a particular technique and also how it will help in the real world/training for your sport. I would highly recommend Donnie for deep tissue work, if you are a high level athlete or even just an individual looking for relief & recovery!

The only massage therapy provider I will use. Truly the best. After a pre-treatment conversation, the provider targets the concerns and relieves any tension and pain. They also provide dry cupping, myofascial work, lymphatic drainage, and scraping, depending on the clients’ needs. Lastly, online scheduling is available for seamless booking needs.

I’ve been going peak performance massage for about 2 months now seeing Donnie and it’s been great. He is a very down to earth guy and has helped relieve my back pain. I’ve been to a couple other places but nothing tops this place. The place is very peaceful and staff is very friendly. If you’ve been hesitant on making an appointment, let me assure you that you won’t be disappointed in your visit. Thank you Donnie and PPM, I will definitely be coming back.

I get a fantastic DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE (60 MIN) from Donnie once a week. I workout (6) days a week and knowing Donnie will work out the kinks at the beginning of every week helps me maintain my workout regiment. THANKS Donnie!

I had an amazing massage with Jenya! I have been giving and receiving body work for 20 years and Jenya gave be such a quality massage. She really listened to and addressed my needs. I felt brand new after my treatment. I would highly recommend her and will defiitly be back, thank you Jenya!

Danita is awesome! Im not a massage person, but I am now. The pain I had been living with from shoulder impingement is gone. As soon as I put my jacket on without wincing I became a believer.

Training six days a week for many years has taught me how important body work is for an active lifestyle. I am also a single mom and personal trainer with a crazy schedule. Peak performance offers great value and a variety of times for scheduling. I am thankful for the highly knowledgeable and professional staff. I feel better every time I leave from my massage.

TL/DR: If you’ve come to these reviews to help you decide if Peak Performance is for you, don’t read further - just book!Seriously though, for those of you doing your due diligence, here are some important things to note about PPM:1. The space is clean, professional in appearance and relaxing. The music was good, it smelled nice, and the bed & linens were comfortable. The building is easy to find and all staff are welcoming. From booking to billing, it’s a seamless simple process.2. The therapists are HIGHLY skilled. I am 46 and have been using chiropractic, massage and/or PT for more than half my life to manage pain. I see Donnie; he is probably the best massage therapists I’ve ever been to. He has the ability to do deep tissue work for prolonged periods of time, which is very hard to find. He also has great beside manner. Ever go to a 1.5 hour massage and feel like they just can’t find the right spot? Me too, but not with Donnie. It’s apparent that he is skilled and well trained with both technique and anatomy and he hits all the right spots, immediately. I had a significant injury and surgery a year ago, Donnie was able to navigate that skillfully.3. It’s an investment. Massage isn’t cheap, and if it is cheap(er) it’s not good. PPM is worth every penny.4. They use technology well: I was having issues with booking through the website on my phone (user error); I emailed and received a phone call the next day, where Donnie chatted with me as we looked through our schedules until we found a day where we were both free - I was able to book within a week. I have a fairly busy schedule, so I found that to be very accommodating. They also have the ability to communicate over texts, in today’s day and age that is awesome.5. Peak performance shares space with Belmont Chiropractic. I find it highly convenient to have a facility where both services are located together. Furthermore, Dr. Jason is also the best chiropractor I have ever been to, and he’s also an all around good dude. So, when PPM joined, and I realized they were also awesome, I was stoked!Thanks for reading my short novella. Give Donnie a call - he will get you sorted. When you’re done, pop in and give Dr. Jason a chance to line you up. You’ll be glad you did. Highly skilled and all around awesome dudes.

Danita is a miracle worker. Periodically, my left knee and hip are painful and stiff. Today, Danita located the problem. It was in my left foot. Thankfully, much of the stiffness was relieved. Actually my entire left side feels more align. Make an appointment. You will not regret it.

My first appointment had to be rescheduled at the last minute due to a therapist schedule conflict. I had already arrived (30 minute drive) but the business was very apologetic and professional when they called me—even offered a 15% discount on my next appt for the inconvenience.I decided to schedule another appointment for the next day—with Danita—and she was great. I have chronic lower back pain from a past lumbar spinal fusion, combined with a high stress job. Danita was a true pro and unlocked many of my back/leg issues and relieved some lingering pain.Given my medical/back history, I’m very cautious about where I go for massages. I won’t hesitate to return for a monthly therapeutic massage to help with pain management so I can stay active.Thanks—highly recommend!!

Its been a while since I posted a review. I felt that after going to peak performance massage for several months now its time to give a 5 star review! I had started going to see Dr. Jason from Belmont Chiropractic Which is in the same office. He also deserves 5 stars but thats another review! I met Heather in the lobby and ask some questions about massages and what they do and what they target. She sounded very knowledgeable so I said why not lets give it a shot. I made my 1st appointment and was not expecting anything significant. I was sincerely astonished and extremely impressed with how one point she was with was finding the knots in my back my back. She really used great pressure throughout the 90 minutes and was very consistent. I had muscles that were very sore in tight. I felt like I was in my twenties when I walked out of there and thats not an exaggeration. She really has a gift and great skills!! I have been getting massages since I was about 20 and now I am in my 40s. I have been in some of the best resorts across the world and even in the USA.. I have been to the high end massage places in Virginia and I cant even tell you that I have been throwing my money away. Dont get me wrong not all were bad some are good and then you have AMAZING! I work out 6 days a week. I have strains all the time in my legs, arms, back, shoulders and neck.. She gets me back and ready for the next week. I am blessed to have found Heather at peak performance and I will keep going back! SUPER HIGHLY RECCOMEND GIVING HEATHER CHANCE TO HELP RELIEVE YOUR MUSCLES PAIN!

I have been a client of Heather for over a year. She has moved on so I switched to Donnie. I am an athlete and he did an amazing job on my body. I have many overuse injuries and areas that he found that needed work. I feel great! I highly recommend him to any athlete.

I had a massage with Donnie many times and have to say, he is super talented. He fills/knows body/anatomy so well that he knows what is wrong and how to help right away. He helped me so many times to feel great. I am a pastry chef. On my feet all the time and do repetitive motions. Also, have noticed he has a lot of athletes as clients , so obviously he is great about sport massage. Definitely try him wont be disappointed.

Heather is by far the best massage therapist ever! She is passionate about what she does and is very accommodating. I’ve seen her 3 times in the last 2 weeks for a back issue and her work has given me so much relief. I live in Florida, otherwise I’d be a regular!Thank you so much Heather!

Ive had massages before at other businesses and I now know they were garbage. Ive had shoulder injuries for years and the following days after Charlotte working on me I feel looser and finally had a pain free upper body day at the gym. Scheduled a follow up as soon as we finished. Charlotte was excellent!

Today was my second visit here and both the times it was Heather who took care of me. The first time I chose her because she had introduced me to Peak Performance and she massaged the pain out of my lower back and thighs. And today she did much better. I must say she has magical hands !!Looking forward to my next and many more sessions with Heather !

As a bodybuilder who also works an office job sitting all day. My hips and legs were hurting so bad. I booked a massage with Charlotte and she fixed me up good as new. Would highly recommend her to anyone. She took the time to understand my lifestyle and what I needed her to fix.

Charlotte is a true professional! She always inquires to the needs of my particular visit and delivers. Her extensive knowledge of the muscular skeletal structure of the human body is made clear by the service she provides. She has always exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend her treatment techniques to my closest friends! ws

I have been working out for quite a few years. This was my very first time getting a recovery massage and I wish I had known about this type of recovery years ago, I am pretty sure it wouldve saved me from a few injuries and pain throughout my years in my fitness life. I cant thank DONNIE enough!!! He is very professional and I can honestly tell that day marked a before and after in my fitness life. I honestly do not see myself NOT getting this type of recovery ever again, I am completely sure I will be a repeat customer for years to come. A lot of the pain that I had which I thought they were muscle tears or maybe even something worse, are gone after that one session I had!!!!! I highly recommend Donnie and his team!!

I have been going to Donnie for a year to get 90-minute massages about every other week and there is no turning back! Donnie’s team at PPMR exceeds the knowledge, technique and passion when it comes to working with a variety of individual’s needs and requests.This team is beyond exceptional. I always leave super satisfied as I always notice an improvement in my body’s alignment. Not only is the PPMR team extremely knowledgeable, but very personable. They always have open ears if you like to engage in conversation during sessions, but are still focused and attentive to your needs and requests when it comes to body workMy background:Having a spinal fusion (a metal rod and screws to correct my scoliosis) along the majority of my spine, I notice a shift in my hips and shoulders as the muscles from my trunk are permanently pulled in fixed positions. I am a trainer of 9 years and have been lifting for 12 years. The amount of help Donnie has contributed to the symmetry of my body has gone beyond recognized when I lift weights, run, and even move throughout the day when helping my clients during my active job.I am truly grateful to get body work done at PPMR as I am very active. As a trainer, I am very hyper focused on the alignment of my body and the proof of improved symmetry is 100% confirmed as I assess my body’s movement before and after almost every visit.Book a session ASAP as I can 100% guarantee you it will be one of the best!

Peak Performance is a must for all athletes in the DMV area. They keep me functional and combat ready. Im amazed by their professional staff and the cleanliness of the establishment. I highly recommend Heather based on her expertise in regards to muscle recovery!

Hands down, the best quality work in the area. I’ve always felt dissatisfied with previous sports massage therapist. But these folks are extremely knowledgeable, highly trained, motivated, and personable. Amazing work guys! “Take care of your body now.. or you will be forced to take care of it later”

Donnie has been treating me for three months now. His techniques of massage is really effective and helped me a lot

Im active most days of the week with weightlifting, golf, running, and could not successfully sustain those activities without the great care I get from Donny and the team at Peak Performance Massage and Recovery. Whether you want to feel your best, perform your best, or just thrive in a pain free life, PPMR will give you the best care possible.

Donnie always exceeds my expectations and listens to all of my concerns. I couldn’t ask for a better treatment everytime I come. I haven’t been in awhile and now I regret taking time away!!!

Charlotte was amazing. I have been to several massage places and she has by far been the best and I will definately be back!!! The place was clean and quiet. Highly recommened.

Great team and staff! All are top notch and know how to get you feeling right.

Elite techniques, caring therapists, and a company run with high ethical and moral standards. This is the best massage therapy office in the DMV. Highly recommended.

Kimmy really knew where to focus and helped with the trouble areas due to bad posture and computer work. I recommend her to anyone who has deep tissue issues.

I have been to this place twice now and each time Charlotte has exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is experiencing pain and aches and needs a good professional massage.

All of the therapists are great. Very professional and give a firm and strong deep tissue massage. Keep up the good work.

Donnie listens to your concerns and accurately treats problem areas.Great service & always feeling 100x better than when I came in

The best deep tissue massage in town. Give Donnie a try and you wont regret it.

Just finished a session with Heather; her expertise left me feeling great and no back issues.

Charlotte is very knowledgeable and takes pride with her craft! I highly recommend her!

I had my sports massage with Charlotte and it was amazing!
