Most therapies focus on the physical symptoms of injuries, such as shifted vertebrae, strained tendons, or stuck fascia. For example, let's say you have damaged discs in your low back:

Evo Performance Rehab's Neuro-Therapy is unique in that it focuses on the nervous system, the body's control center. For Evo, neurological dysfunction is the deeper underlying cause of these structural symptoms.
Now let’s say you come to Evo Performance Rehab.
We will assess your movement and perform a neurological search to find which areas have compromised neurological communication and the ability to absorb force.
Your movements may show that your hamstrings don't lengthen and contract well. In order to compensate for this, your back flexes and extends excessively when you lift something or bend over.
Your neurological search may show, for example, that your hamstrings aren't working enough and can't absorb force.
The treatment focuses on re-integrating your hamstrings into the movement patterns of what previously stressed out your back.
After just one or two sessions you can touch your toes with zero pain again!
After phase one, the legs and hips are now working much better at supporting the low back and taking stress off of the area.
Now, strength development is happening in the previously inhibited areas and you are feeling the ability to move and exercise without making your back stressed.
By the end of phase two, you are mostly pain-free and your body is working for you and not against you!
When symptoms are the focus of treatment, a lot of time and energy can be wasted!
This also clears the way for proper strengthening.
Many people can't get the most out of their physical therapy exercises because their bodies prevent them from using their muscles the way they're supposed to.
With Neuro-Therapy, we can correct this imbalance and make progress in tandem with your current therapies!
We know what gifts each of us has and the potential for assisting individuals in taking that first step, whether it’s psychologically, emotionally, with their habits, or with their treatment sessions.
Together, we’ll be able to help you create a breakthrough to the next level of functioning and have a better quality of life, one step at a time.
We are convinced that each of us is a miracle, and that we must hold each other, the client and the therapist, accountable for reaching our full potential, not just function and daily activities.
We want more for you.
One of our rehab specialists will be happy to talk with you during a free consultation call to learn more about your issues and determine if Neuro-Therapy is likely to benefit you.
If you live in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, you can visit any of our facilities and work with a Neuro-Therapy practitioner to complete an evaluation treatment.

Zavier is a talented Running Back, but recently had a knee surgery and a major ankle surgery. Zavier came to Evo Performance Rehab and is now far surpassed what he thought 100% would be for him and the function of his ankle.
I was stuck in a painful neck spasm when I got connected with Tyler at Evo Performance Rehab. He quickly located the issue and by the evening after the first session, my pain had improved immensely. After he helped me completely heal up fairly quickly, I learned exercises I could do to prevent the issue from recurring. Being in a profession with added stress on my neck and back, I saw value in the sessions as I was mastering the exercises to properly do them on my own. I am done seeing him now, and I continue to add the exercises into my workout routine. Highly recommend!
Working with Dom and his team at Evo was an exceptional experience. As someone who spends an average of five hours a day driving, I’ve been struggling with flare-ups of sciatic nerve pain. Dom’s expertise and thorough approach in diagnosing the root cause of my pain made all the difference. After just one session, I felt immediate relief, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit. The therapy offered at Evo is truly unique, and the results are undeniable. If you're dealing with pain, do yourself a favor and check them out—you won’t regret it!
I went for lower back pain and after finishing the treatment sessions my back feels brand new. They are very flexible with scheduling as well.
