I started seeing Dr. Graves at EVO Performance Therapy in April 2023 after dealing with a lower back injury, and he was incredible in helping me get back on track. In 2024, I went through some unexpected health challenges that made getting back into working out feel overwhelming and honestly a little intimidating. Since October 2025, Dr. Graves has helped me rebuild not only my strength, but also my confidence in exercising again safely. What I appreciate most is how personalized and supportive his approach has been throughout the entire process. He really listens, adapts to your needs, and makes you feel encouraged every step of the way. I’ve now completed physical therapy and I am transitioning into more performance-based therapy, which feels like such a huge milestone. I’m incredibly grateful for all of his help and would highly recommend Dr. Graves and EVO Performance Therapy to anyone looking for knowledgeable, compassionate care.
Fantastic team. They supported my recovery within just a few weeks, and I’ve seen significant progress as a result. Special shout-out to Willis—he has been outstanding throughout this journey.
Amazing experience! In town for short time and a race and needed some guidance. Was referred over and could not recommend Evo enough. Dr Willis was beyond helpful and I look forward to communicating with him in the future for my continued progress and body care. Thank you so much Evo!
I was researching PT locations that would offer dry needling as I had the infamous case of nashville bartender pain. Dr. Willis immediately assured me he’d get me to as close to pain free as possible in the time I had. I’m grateful for EVO, Dr. Willis and being pain free!! 🏋🏼♀️ He was able to dry needle, cup, e-stim & program exercises to stabilize my thoracic lumbar.
EVO is hands down the best. I started going for a specific back injury that was making sitting and standing difficult. After just a few visits I was moving normally again and a few months into treatment I’m full speed ahead at the gym. The best part for me is that the treatment plan isn’t just about fixing the symptom. We are diving into the root cause and working to correct deficiencies that will prevent the problem from returning. We’ve been able to start working on other nagging issues I have and I can already tell a difference not only in the gym but in everyday life (less back and neck pain sitting at my desk all day). I highly recommend the EVO team for treatment for any type of injuries/issues you have.
As a wife, mother of 3, and CrossFit enthusiast, I am always moving. When I experienced my first back injury, I was afraid it would take me out of all the things I was committed to and love. I came across EVO, and it was their performance base therapy that taught me that movement is a powerful tool when healing from an injury. Wil, Ben, and the team at EVO worked with me in such a detailed way, and their attention to getting me back to moving in the ways I loved is what sets them apart. Every movement and exercise that was given not only helped heal my back, but they also strengthened other areas of my body, making me overall stronger than I was before. I can truly say I am grateful for the experience and process of my injury because of working with EVO!
Willis is an amazing physical therapist! He has helped me not only to successfully rehab a rotator cuff injury, but also learn how to use better form with many CrossFit movements. He is professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He uses various techniques as needed such as dry needling, cupping, and manual manipulation, as well as prescribing a detailed at-home exercise program. I would recommend him to any athlete needing physical therapy!
Whether you’re looking for proactive wellness and longevity or reactive care to get you moving again, don’t go anywhere else. EVO Performance Therapy helped me work through shoulder pain and discomfort that everyone else dismissed as “just aging” or hormonal shifts. I’m in my 40s and feel more optimized than ever thanks to their thoughtful approach: real dialogue, active listening, and top-notch diagnostics. The combination of exercises + relief treatments like cupping & dry needling brought both immediate relief and lasting strength. My shoulder feels great now, and we’re proactively assessing the rest of my body to address imbalances, build resilience, and prevent future injuries. The team is wicked smart, approachable, and puts you at ease. The space itself is sleek, modern, and elevated... exactly what caring for your body and wellbeing should feel like. If you want real results and a next-level experience, EVO is the place.
I started PT at EVO in October of 2023 for a CrossFit shoulder injury. I’ve enjoyed working with them so much that after “graduating” from my program I continue to do monthly maintenance appointments. The staff is professional, knowledgeable, and kind. I would recommend to anyone, whether you are working on healing an injury or just want to maintain peak performance.
I came to Dr. Sarah Rohloff at EVO after struggling with a knee injury that was inhibiting my performance at CrossFit. My real goal was to get myself ready for Dodgers Fantasy Camp this past January out in Arizona, which was a 50th birthday present to myself. As a former baseball player, while it was a dream trip in theory, it would've been a nightmare had I showed up unable to give it my all due to a knee issue. I met with Sarah pretty much weekly for several months, and the progress was somewhat slow in the beginning to be honest. But after getting into a rhythm with her, I was able to do more in the gym and started to regain most of my strength and flexibility. She took it easy on me when I wasn't feeling it, but she also pushed me to the brink when I had more in the tank. The trip was a complete success in the end, as I played incredibly well with basically no limitations over the course of a full week. I was even named MVP of my team after a standout performance both in the field and at the plate. I can't think Sarah enough for being so personal in her approach to my recovery, and as a result she deserves the highest of recommendations from me.
