If someone comes in to Evo Performance Rehab with neck pain, often they have been doing some stretches, getting chiropractic adjustments, or getting massages, but very seldom do they actually know what is wrong with their neck that it is so tight or so painful.
When we do the neurological search process and identify where the real dysfunctions are coming from, we may see someone with an extremely painful and restricted neck get complete, full range of motion within one session, even if our locations are in their shoulder or in their midback.
A recent exercise physiologist client presented with a severely limited range of motion, turning her head to the left. She also displayed a lack of range of motion through her rotator cuff. When we did the location process, her neck was fairly clear. And we found dysfunction in the areas of her infraspinatus and supraspinatus, two of her rotator cuff muscles.
When we worked to restore high-level communication between her brain and her shoulder muscles and rotator cuff, her neck was able to stop overcompensating and let go. Within the first treatment, she was able to move her shoulder better and had full range of motion again.
Another example of this would be a construction industry professional who came to us with a severe disc herniation between C six and seven vertebrae in his neck. This man would have severe shooting pain down the back of his arm if he ever had to look upwards.
When we did the location process, we found locations in his shoulder blade, the teres minor, and the medial short head of his bicep. When we stimulated these areas to communicate more appropriately, he was able to look up with greatly reduced pain, even though nothing had changed in the structures of his neck.
From there, the man was able to completely avoid the surgery that had been planned to fuse the vertebrae in his neck. This was done by retraining the activation of muscles and resetting the balance and function of muscles and posture while moving and exercising. Needless to say, he was very happy about that.

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.
Tyler is great to work with. I’ve dealt with shoulder and back pain since my sports days in college and with Tyler’s help and methods I have been able to throw baseballs, footballs and golf with minimal pain and soreness, something I haven’t been able to do for years. I would highly encourage anyone to reach out to Tyler to see how he can help you.
I was recommended to Tyler for a herniated disk in my neck. Didn't know anything about the neuro therapy process, but had been to lots of traditional PT. I can tell you that you will get results way above and beyond what you expect. Totally cleared up my nerve pain (which was severe) but it also helped build up the surrounding muscles to support the area long-term. Plus, he's is one of the most knowledgeable people you will ever meet in proper technique and posture. Very grateful and highly recommend!
First thing I noticed about Tyler is he wasn’t concerned about paperwork or cover your butt type stuff he digs right in and will spend the time it takes to rectify the problem. My torn quad felt improvement from the first two sessions and he got me back playing tennis again in a month and a half. I’ve spent $560 dollars on my last doctor visit “ hello how’s it going, ok see you later” with not much more. I would definitely recommend seeing Tyler.
Each Neuro-Therapy process begins with a free phone consultation, followed by an in-clinic or virtual evaluation treatment session.
We walk you through the Neuro-Therapy process so you can see the significant differences that even one session can make.
This helps us find the best treatment plan for your lasting success.
