My teen daughter (athlete) is experiencing knee pain. I searched Yelp for "orthopedic" and found Elite having the highest reviews. I called and Dr. Patrick pics up the phone. After a few mins, he recommended something as a first step ... that wasn't visiting Elite. This actual owner of the company said 'start somewhere else' (and he gave me two top recommendations) and then see Elite if needed afterwards. Talk about honest! I only spent a few minutes with him but I think he's top notch and what doctors should always be ... patient focused first. Thanks Dr. Pat! I'll see see you when needed. read more

I did not see the chiropractor here. (Though I did see the chiropractor as he came out to greet other patients while I was waiting for my massage. He seemed very friendly.) I went for the Thai Massage with Rawiwan. The massage room is inside the chiropractor's office, which is inside a building with other offices. It is quite sizable. the office has very good vibes, with lots of inspirational quotes, friendly pictures, and clean atmosphere. They also sell some raw honey that Dr. Paul apparently makes (is that the term? harvest?) himself. Love me some local honey! I got a jar and am glad I did. I'll be getting another jar soon. Anyway, on to the massage. The 1-hour massage lasted the full one hour (and then some). She uses hot stones, hot towels, and I'm not sure how she does it, but she doesn't reach out to get oil but somehow has it coming out as she's working on you with both hands! Like Spiderman or something. It was really cool. A really, very good massage. Talk to her and let her know if you need her to adjust strength and she gets on it right away. I'd be coming here regularly if I lived a little closer. read more

I've been going to Elite Performance Chiropractic for the past nearly three years and I can't recommend this place enough! Both doctors are amazing I have been seeing a chiro all my life but I found Dr. Patrick after I got into a bad car accident and had bad neck and back pain along with ongoing poor posture from work at home. He provided the care and expertise I needed to heal and manage my ongoing discomfort. His adjustments are always effective, and he takes the time to listen and tailor treatments to my needs. Dr. PK is also fantastic - an expert at his craft and is phenomenal at adjustments. Both doctors' specialities complement each other well - so I am equally as excited to see PK because I get a really good adjustment. I've also had the pleasure of working with Amelia for deep tissue massage, and she is truly incredible. She has an intuitive approach and works wonders in releasing tension and pain. It is really easy to get on their schedule and the appointment management system is really easy for me to adjust appointments and rebook as needed. If you're looking for a chiropractor or massage therapist who genuinely care about their patients and deliver outstanding results, the folks at Elite are the quite frankly, Elite! read more

My husband and I both see Dr. PK Modi, and he is truly an exceptional chiropractor and a wonderful human. Before working with him, I didn't realize just how many issues chiropractors could treat beyond the back and spine. I struggled with chronic pain in my right arm for three years; it was truly miserable and made typing impossible. After seeing two physical therapists and a sports medicine doctor without any relief, I started seeing Dr. PK about six months ago. Using the ART (Active Release Technique) method on my arm, he worked his magic, and I am now completely pain-free. Dr. PK is also the best TMJ provider I've ever found. His expertise extends to doing precise, inside-the-mouth work to release tight jaw muscles, which has been a game-changer for me. He can also do dry needling on these areas. My husband, who has back issues, has also experienced incredible relief from his sessions with Dr. PK. The rest of the office is just as amazing! I've worked with Dr. Patrick and Amelia, the massage therapist, who are both wonderful. The entire team is skilled, caring, and a true pleasure to work with. If you're looking for a chiropractor who truly goes above and beyond, I can't recommend Dr. PK Modi and his colleagues enough. read more

I visit dr Malartsik mostly for upper back & neck issues. From my first appointment I started feel better & saw difference. Doctor uses very special , highly effective technique, developed by himself.It combines Chiropractic, PT & natural abilities & resources of the body.I highly recommend very professional service of Dr Malartsik to any one,who looking for REAL chiropractic care & better health. Office stuff helpful & friendly,overall office experience is very good. read more

Dr. Patrick is incredible! 10/10. I was referred by a PA who works at a medical spa and another girl friend of mine. Both had rave reviews, so I went to check it out. Insurance covered my appts (Blue Cross Blue Shield of IL PPO) and even my massages with Ricki! Ricki has the hands of an angel and the soul to go along with it. The portion it didn't cover was extremely affordable as well. Dr. Patrick treated me every single week for months before I moved to AZ with a variety of different therapies and helped me tremendously. They are all collectively an amazing group of individuals that offer quality care in a friendly office atmosphere. I would recommend the whole city to go to this clinic if I could. Eternally grateful, Nicki Loizzi :) read more

I went in for an appointment at Elite Performance Chiropractic while visiting Chicago for work. I usually see my chiropractor locally but with a long flight and low pillow in the hotel room, my neck was inflamed. I needed a solution fast before the flight back so I called on the day of and was able to go in right after they opened. I felt the warm welcome from the receptionist and was greeted by Dr. Kyle. After filling out the forms, I was directed to the room where Dr. Kyle and I chatted about my symptoms and past treatments. Off we went to the table to get hooked up to electro muscular stimulator with warm towel. After 20mins, Dr. Kyle adjusted my neck and shoulder using active release technique (ART) which treats your body's soft tissue by combining manipulation and movement. Dr. Kyle went through how I can build a stronger muscle around the pain areas. We went through resistance exercises with the strap and dumbbells. The session relieved my pain and I highly recommend anyone looking for a chiropractor locally or visiting from other cities! read more

I have gotten treatment from Dr. Patrick for back pain and sciatic pain. My back strain was so bad I could not stand up or sit down without pain. Felt immediately better after my first visit. Back improved and healed without drugs. I later strained my sciatic nerve and got treated for that. My sciatic pain is gone. I can't recommend Dr. Patrick and this office highly enough! read more

Real Results! About three years ago, I injured my shoulder. I had constant pain since then. My shoulder kept moving out of place. My original chiropractor would adjust it, but it kept happening. I went to another chiropractor with no results. I finally found Dr Kyle Grisius. He had a different strategy...physical therapy. I worked with him right before the pandemic. I saw results quickly, I now have no pain at all. Very satisfied. Can't recommend him enough. read more

This is the best place! I recommend for all your chiropractic and massage care. I've experienced so much day to day pain relief from coming here and everyone is so knowledgeable and really individualizes your care. read more

Dr. Pat is hands down one of the best chiropractors I've ever seen. For 6 months he diligently helped me heal my bruised heel and strained planters fasciitis. He went above any beyond by helping me get second opinions on MRIs and was extremely thoughtful every week on my physical therapy exercises. Highly recommend. read more

Dr. Pat is my Superman! I had horrible middle back pain for months and tried everything from seeing a masseuse to a Naprapath. I would get some relief, but my back pain would quickly return. Dr. Pat Malartsik changed all that! Within two visits I had significantly less pain. How did I not go to him sooner? I will continue to see him on a regular basis to keep my back pain from returning. I would highly recommend Dr. Pat to anyone needing a great chiropractor! read more

Kyle has helped me more than every other chiro put together. And he got my dad out of needing surgery on his hand. Unlike my last guy not at all creepy. He's very nuts and bolts no spirituality or emotional work and leans more on the pt side. It's cracking style chiro which isn't my preference but results. I've done 3-4 appts at a time separated by years to get me out of acute issues and not needed the endless maintenance like others. The exercises to do at home are super important. Life changing read more

Dr. Pat is the best and cares about his patients. I even got a Christmas card in the mail , how sweet !!! Two important things, if you are a client and really hurt yourself one day, he does his best to squeeze you in same or next day. One time I was dying at work because my back hurt so much. I was able to see him during my lunch hour and was back to work no problem. Secondly, He understands weight lifting exercises and even asks to see how you are performing them to ensure you are doing it properly. Super cool. He's got a great attitude and I highly recommend. read more

Dr. Patrick is the best! I have intermittent neck pain flare ups and normally would wait until I was in excruciating pain and then finally go to the chiropractor. I started coming to see him a few months ago and he's done such an amazing job making my entire body feel better and more aligned that I come see him every other week for adjustments. I also see Amelia for massages every other week. She is amazing!! Her deep tissue massage is wonderfully painful. Haha. I'm so glad I found this place and a routine to keep my body aligned and happy read more

I was able to be seen quickly when I called in pain. PK was very thorough and I would highly recommend visiting the office.

This is a five star group . I was in great need of relief for a pinched nerve in my neck ... I found Patrick online and they straight up delivered. Everyone there is friendly and welcoming ... and they have great skill sets throughout the office . I started feeling relief after the first visit and by my third and last , before leaving town , my issues improved by 90%. There's no doubt in my mind that if I have a structural issue , or just need a reset or physical maintenance these folks are at the top of my list . You can go with confidence . read more

Can't recommend Dr. Kyle enough - thorough, great, and helpful! My back pain is finally a history. I've been seeing Amelia for massages as well, and I always feel so much better after seeing her. Great & pleasant crew who knows what they're doing! read more

I recently transferred to Elite from another practice. I've been seeing PK and I can't believe how awesome he is. He's the full package. From the very beginning he listened to my issues and has been addressing them all. He's very thorough & sensitive to my comfort level. PK is focused on making the most of the time I'm there. I highly recommend him as he genuinely cares about helping people get back to their best. read more

I tweaked my back and called Dr. Patrick and he got me in on an emergency visit right away. He was super nice and helpful and the facility is very clean. I would definitely recommend, and I will be back! read more

I hurt my back at the gym and was able to get a same day appointment with Dr. Grisius. He was extremely knowledgeable and helped to quickly get me back on my feet. I can't thank him enough and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need. read more

I was desperado for some ART (active release technique) work and a diagnosis on my dysfunctional right hip flexor (major pain lifting my leg post heavy back squat day). after calling around the entire city of chicago for ART-ers, elite performance was the first (and only) one to not only answer, but let me speak with the doc personally and fit me into their schedule the next morning. I guess it didn't help I was calling after 5pm on a Thursday, but I guess that's fate for ya. anyways, dr. p(atrick malartsik) ran some initial tests, hooked me up with an MRI later that day, and filled me in on my results the day after (a saturday, mind you). til this day, dr. p works with my schedule, coming in at 7am monday mornings to work out the tweaks in my hips and listen to my rants about lifting, crossfit, and life in general. my sessions were more than just rehab and ART, dr. p got to know the person I am and my long term fitness goals. he personalized my time with him and focused on my weaknesses (squatting form and weak glute meds) to prevent future injuries. basically, he was just as adamant as I was to get back at it (it, being lifting). the ART work itself was phenomenal. by phenomenal, I mean incredibly painful (which is what it's supposed to be) and effective. he worked through the problem areas and everything near and around them. within a few weeks, the chronic daily pain was gone. two and a half months later (these things take time), I'm completely back on my grind. lifting heavy sh!t and pr'ing left and right. he's just as excited as I am whenever I update him on my most recent accomplishments and loves hearing about it (atleast he makes it seem like it). long story short, elite performance invests in you (corny and lame, but so true). pro tips. - they've got a fully stocked keurig - there's free parking on the east side of Orleans and in the hood, north of their building - if you still can't find parking, there's a car wash down the street which you can drop your car off during your appt (swap paying for parking for a car wash, score!) read more

I had absolutely agonising shoulder pain after work one day this week, I was in Dr Patrick's office the next morning in a pretty bad way and he told me I had a trapped nerve. He did some magic, showed me a good sleep position and although I was sore that day, woke up feeling a million times better. The second visit fixed it. I'm now the proud owner of a little sponge thing he sold me to make me sit straight at my desk, and a little red band which I must use to do my shoulder blade exercises. Really really pleased that he has fixed the pain but also offered some really workable solutions to the longer term problem. read more

This review is in regards to my visit with Dr. Todd. To preface: I have had chronic knee problems throughout my life as a result of my basketball career, leading me to get surgery on my patella tendon and multiple scopes for repeatedly tearing my meniscus. With that, I have constant pain in my right knee which in turn has impacted other parts of my body - it has put more pressure on my right leg, tweaked my back and hips, and reduced leg strength. I went to see Dr. Todd after hearing and reading numerous good reviews. I was hoping to receive different treatment than prior experience... which has been the typical doctor pushing me to get another surgery, chiropractors having me come in for ongoing "adjustments", etc. Fortunately, Dr. Todd isn't your typical chiropractor. After my first appointment with him, he made it clear on how we are going to fix and strengthen my patella tendon in order to regain balance in my body. He also provided me with different exercises I could do on my own to speed up the healing process. I am very confident that the techniques he will be using are going to resolve my knee issues. It is clear that Dr. Todd is very knowledgeable with sports related injuries. Please see him before you get your surgery that your doctor is "highly recommending". read more

Years of dancing has led to my unfortunate knee pain. For years, I decided to be a trooper and push through the pain however recently, my left knee began to severely ache and I felt discouraged. In an effort to persevere, I looked on Yelp for physical therapists and came across Elite Performance. I made the phone call and was soon booked with Dr. Kyle! During my first appointment, he was very professional, caring and patient. We discussed my symptoms and came up with a treatment plan. Over the course of time, we have used Normatec, the ART technique and a series of exercises to strengthen the muscles/areas around my knees. What I appreciate the most about Dr. Kyle is his honesty and transparency. He comes up with a plan, sticks to it and assesses the progress along the way. His knowledge and expertise has assisted me tremendously on my journey back to healthy knees. If I'm being candid, my journey will take some time because I've danced for 28 years without any concern of the damage that I was doing to my knees. I'm confident that I'm well on my way to feeling 100%! The culture of the space is welcoming and chill. Although I haven't worked with Dr. Patrick, we've chatted a few times and his personality is very genuine and warm. Highly recommend both Dr. Kyle and Dr. Patrick for any of your PT/chiro needs! read more

Amazing. Seriously, amazing. A shoulder injury put me out-of-commission for 2.5 years. Now, after seeing Patrick, I'm back in the game. If you want to know why I decided to visit Patrick in the first place -- and what the exactly the results were -- I've detailed the entire story below (fair warning: it's pretty long. I tried to give as much context as possible in case it helps anyone who can relate to what I was going through). In March 2016 I was 22 years old and had been lifting weights seriously for three years. Never had any problems except the inevitable soreness that comes from heavy free weights. I was off-and-on with stretching. Sometimes I'd take it seriously. Sometimes I'd go weeks or months barely stretching at all. Never did yoga. So in general, my body was very tense, my muscles tight and inflexible. One day I was in the gym doing weighted chin ups and barbell rows. I finished the workout and everything felt fine. But the next day... boom: I couldn't even turn my neck to look in either direction. It was completely frozen. I'd have to turn my whole torso to look around. This lasted about a day, then subsided. In its place, I was left with a deep ache in my upper trap -- right between my spine and my shoulder. I began self-treating with a lacrosse ball and my fingers, trying to work out what felt like a giant knot. After returning to the gym cautiously, and nonetheless having my neck flare up again, I renounced the gym. I figured I'd let my injury -- whatever it was -- heal on its own by leaving it alone for awhile. The ache never went away. A few months later, I visited a chiropractor. He took x-rays. But there was nothing. No obvious damage. He outlined a plan for me, but I declined. He seemed hungry for money -- he was too smooth, almost scripted in the way he "pitched" me on his 8-week plan to fix my shoulder. I left his office unnerved and never went back. Fast forward a year and a half and I'm in the worst physical shape of my life. I'm almost completely sedentary. I haven't even done one pushup in nearly two years. The only exercise I've done is an occasional run on the beach. Running on pavement triggered an insufferable ache in my shoulder, so I quickly stopped trying. At this point I've moved twice and landed in Chicago. I'm sick of how I feel physically. Honestly, I began to wonder if I'd ever really get to use my body again. Would I ever play sports? Would I ever wrestle around with my brother or friends? Would I be limited to careful, boring sex iSo n the fear that anything too vigorous would trigger my old injury and incapacitate me? First-world problems, maybe, but that was my state of mind. So I decide to get an MRI. Again, nothing in the results that indicate injury. They refer me to a physical therapist who I see for several months with only moderate improvement. Fast forward a few months again. I'm still in pain. I still don't workout. I'm literally FANTASIZING about doing pushups and pull-ups. Some acquaintances mention having solved old injuries after getting treated with a technique called ART. I'd heard of it before in passing, but now I'm intrigued. So I hop online and look for someone in Chicago who offers it. That's when I landed on Patrick and Elite Performance. His business was one of the first in my search results. It was conveniently located for me, so I booked a visit right away. We immediately hit it off. I grew up in Hawaii. My first visit, he'd literally just returned -- the day before -- from a two week trip to the islands. Suffice to say, we had plenty to talk about. But I don't think that experience was unique for me. Patrick radiates warmth and positivity. Anytime I arrived early while he was finishing up with another client, they'd always be chatting. He's just friendly. Plain and simple. He asked me about what I was dealing with, did a few range-of-motion tests, and explained what he thought he could do to help. I was sold. There was no pitch, but I didn't think twice about coming back. So I did! Twice a week for just over a month. The results? Well, I'm sitting here having just returned from two weeks in Wyoming. While there I: - tore down and built about 50 yards of barbed-wire fence (which required lifting, throwing, and pounding 7 ft. long, 6 inch diameter logs into the ground) - ran up a 12,000 ft. mountain - spent multiple hours kayaking on a lake (often racing my friend) And that whole time, I barely once thought of my shoulder. No pain at all. I seriously felt ALIVE again. Since working with Patrick, I've started working out three times a week. No weights yet. All calisthenics: feet-elevated pushups, dips, handstand pushups (working up to them), pull ups, chin ups, and and back-bridges. But I can do it all without pain. I'm stronger and more active than I've been in nearly three years. And seriously, as corny as it sounds to say, I feel like I have a new lease on life. It's no stretch to say Patrick changed my life. read more

I have had a nagging injury/overuse issue going on in my right leg for about 1.5 years now. I have gone to Dr prescribed PT and stopped training for marathons over all. After going to EPC I have confidence in starting to train again as well as clear, unambiguous directions to take in my own training. & strength development to avoid any further injuries of this kind. This was something I was starting to think wasn't possible. For that EPC is incredible. For the "bedside manner" so to speak, the Dr is hilarious, and makes the time you're going through ART seem like nothing. If I end up with an injury or issues I can go to a chiropractor for, EPC will absolutely be my go-to. read more

I recently visited Elite Performance Chiropractic and worked with Dr. Todd Peterson who was absolutely fantastic is eliminating my lower back pain. At my first appointment, Dr. Todd took about an hour meeting with me, patiently listening to the history of my back pain, asking questions, and analyzing my range of motion and pain. He was extremely thorough and made me feel comfortable even when complaining about a small/nagging pain that I wasn't sure was even warranted for a visit to the chiropractor. Dr. Todd is extremely knowledgeable in his field and takes the time to explain why things hurt, explain best practices for avoiding pain, and best exercises for strengthening your body to alleviate future pain. After various sessions and activities, Dr. Todd had me pain free and working toward exercises I could do on my own once I "graduated." Dr. Todd and Elite Performance have a very holistic approach-- if you're looking for a chiropractor that really cares, shares exercises, reasons behind certain pain, etc. look no further than Dr. Todd. read more

I saw Dr. Pat after completing my first marathon in 2016. My left knee was experiencing some bad pain post race after just a quarter mile. Dr. Pat assessed my situation and provided in office treatment and physical therapy and then provided me with at home exercises to continue with after our in office sessions were over. That being said, I've continued running and have subsequently completed 3 more marathons along with other distances with no knee discomfort. I'm truly grateful for the service he provided and am happy to be able continue running injury free. He is also great conversationalist and creates a comfortable casual environment for office visits. Marathon number 4 on the books! Thanks again, Dr. Pat! read more

I had never been to a chiropractor before visiting Elite Performance for the first time. I was hesitant but desperate, as I was in a lot of pain and left work early, unable to finish the day. A friend recommended Dr Pat and I called, not expecting to see him that day but crossing my fingers. He was more than willing to squeeze me in and immediately put me at ease when I told him I was a little nervous, having never seen a chiropractor before. Upon initial assessment of my condition, he explained everything he would do to help me and I left the office already feeling much better. I continued seeing him regularly - always able to book in advance to get a time slot convenient for me. I have continued seeing Dr Pat on a regular basis and have been more than convinced that he has helped me tremendously with my neck and back pain. In addition, he is personable and willing to see clients last minute if need be. Obviously highly recommend Elite! read more

Dr. Kyle is truly the best! My really terrible neck pain is almost gone and I cannot recommend him enough!

I made an appointment with Dr. Patrick for a shoulder impingement injury that I've been trying to treat for about 8 months with no success from other physical therapists or chiros. So I was a bit skeptical when I came in. Dr. Patrick was very understanding of my skepticism and after the evaluation designed a program with ART and exercises tailored to my specific needs. Within 8 weeks, the shoulder impingement had decreased to a point where I could lift and bench press with minimal pain, continuing to decrease with each passing week. I was astonished at how the simple exercises he prescribed helped treat a condition that I've had for months and one that trained physical therapists could not help with. I will be definitely going back if other issues arise since this man definitely knows what he's doing! Also, he's young, cool, hip, and has a sense of humor so essentially A+. read more

Having just moved to Chicago, I originally found Dr. Patrick through the Active Release Technique website, since the most effective Chiropractors I have had have been ART certified and used it regularly in their practice. I originally went to Dr. Patrick seeking help for my seriously painful neck I was suffering from which he did a through new patient evaluation for me first, then adjusted me, did some great ART work and then gave me several exercises to do at home which would help. I really appreciated his identification of my movement and need for adjusting my habits through these exercises. He also asked me about my daily routine, to determine the root cause as well as whatever had exacerbated it and recommended changing my pillow, paying attention to my daily routine etc. I went to him on a biweekly then weekly basis and my neck pain went away in a few weeks after suffering from it for months. Most recently I have been going to Dr. Patrick for my horrible headaches which have had constantly and his work has proved to gradually improve my headaches week by week. I have seen him to do adjustments and ART work. If I miss an appointment I definitely see the progress go backward. Slowly but surely he is helping me to knock out these ongoing headaches and recommends vitamins, muscle creams and changes to my daily routine which I should evaluate and adjust. Dr. Patrick and Liz his wife who is also a Chiropractor there, they are great people, super friendly and genuinely care about their patients. I highly recommend them to anyone experiencing body pain, or headaches.... ART work is amazingly effective and Dr. Patrick is great at integrating this along with regular adjustments. Highly recommend them!!!!! read more

When you have musculoskeletal issues, its nice to have people like Dr. Malartsik in your corner. I weight train frequently and one of the most effective forms of treatment for me is ART (active release technique) in which Dr. Pat is certified. His vast knowledge and ability to treat these problems is what makes him stand out above the rest! Plus, he has an amazing beard!! read more

Highly recommend Elite Performance. After suffering from back pain, which turned out to be a herniated disc, I quickly booked an appointment with the practice. Dr. Kyle saw me right away, and was incredibly effective. While he was very knowledgeable of my injury, I was not. He took the time to explain the injury and exactly what I needed to do to treat it. His recommendations were spot on and within days I was able to walk normally and the pain went down significantly. Great patient experience with Chiropractors you can trust. read more

I've been to 5-6 different chiropractors in the city, searching for one that works the magic of my chiropractor from home 4 hours away. I've been seeing one I like for a while but when I woke up this morning unable to turn my neck and needed to get in quick over my lunch break I decided to give Dr. Malartsik a try being that the practice is a few blocks from work and home. I was very impressed and am switching to see him for regular adjustments immediately. He was very comprehensive in his explanations and examination, which I really appreciate. He not only fixed the problem but spoke with me regarding overall health as well in a way I could easily understand. 5 stars, I'll definitely be back and plan to recommend this practice to anyone in need. read more

I came to Elite Performance as a rheumatoid arthritis patient tired of my chronic shoulder pain. For the past few months, I've worked with Dr. Patrick Malartsik, as well as massage therapists Dennis and Amelia, and my transformation has been amazing. With a mix of physical therapy, chiropractic treatment and massage therapy, I feel better than I have felt since before I was diagnosed three years ago. Dr. Malartsik's head-on approach has changed my life. He combines practical exercises (that I can also work on at home), dynamic stretching and the help of his massage therapists to make sure patients receive well-rounded care. He and the rest of the staff genuinely care about making their patients well again - when I came in, we went over my goals and Dr. Malartsik was upfront about what we needed to tackle and optimistic that we could achieve positive results. Elite Performance isn't just about getting an adjustment - it is about yielding positive results that improve patients' quality of life. And the staff is not only highly knowledgeable and capable, they are also a ton of fun to work with and genuinely caring people. read more

I was traveling to Chicago on business from Orlando. A disk in my lower back was bulging causing extreme sciatic pain down my left leg to the point that I was unable to sleep for several nights. I was referred to Elite Performance by a good friend. Fortunately Dr. Malartsik was able to get me in the same day. Not only was he able to give me instant pain relief but he also taught me the McKenzie Method exercises and gave me a McKenzie support pillow to place behind my back when sitting. I'm back in Orlando now and the exercises he taught me has helped greatly to localize the pain and eliminate the shooting pain down my leg. I'm an active 55-year old man. Having sciatic pain was destroying my quality of life. Thank you Dr. Malartsik, you are a miracle worker. read more

If you are in pain do not sit with it for another second, be proactive about your health and well being ... GO SEE DR. PATRICK MALARTSIK AND THE ELITE PERFORMANCE TEAM NOW!!! I was referred to Dr. Malartsik about a month ago and I wish I would have known about his practice 2 years ago when I moved to Chicago! He is hands down a miracle worker! Very friendly staff and happy welcoming environment! Dr. Malartsik is incredibly knowledgable and informative about his profession. Not only does he know how to fix any bit of pain, but he explains step by step what he is doing and how it will help. He also does not just send you on your way after your session, he gives you stretches and exercises you can easily do in the comfort of your own home to continue the therapy between sessions with him. For me it was years of cheerleading, dance and having a very physical job (teaching various exercise classes), that have caused me to develop pains in my low back, hip flexors and hamstrings. He went throughly through all of my concerns and issue and then step by step walked me through a series of movements and positions to figure out where everything is stemming from and where is best to start. I have a degree in Exercise Science and have a good understanding of the body but he was able to go so much further in depth and clearly explain everything to me what was going on and what we would be doing to fix the issues. I'm not going to lie, some of the movements I did were painful, but he helps you breathe through it and talks to you to help distract your mind. Once we were done I felt like a completely renewed body, it was incredible to feel so limber and loose where i had such tightness and pain before! I had never been to a Chiropractor before and have always been scared of all the jolting popping I had heard from other places but in my very first visit he had me walking out a full believer in his Chiropractic skills and there was nothing scary or jolting about his work what so ever. He is truly the best and I always look forward to my visits instead of anxious. It is so great to have less and less pain between each visit with him...I can literally feel my body getting back to normal! I have not tried out the massages at his practice yet, but I have heard nothing but rag reviews from friends that have been getting massages there regularly. read more

I just had a massage from Amelia at Elite Performance Chiropractic. She really got in there and did everything I needed her to. I'm a hairstylist and live a very active lifestyle. This has left me with neck and back pain, carpal tunnel, knee pain and achilles heel. She addressed all of my issues in one visit. I feel a ton of relief after she worked on me. The receptionist is very friendly. I will try the chiropractor out at some point. read more
