Peak Performance Therapy & Wellness

I have worked with Brian in the past and called in for new movement challenges I was facing. He was always so thorough. I called him back up and was lucky enough to have Donovan take over my care. Donovan is a perfect addition to this team, he is thorough, listens and genuinely cares. Had me feeling better after one session (but continued to work together so pain doesn’t come back) and works with me to gain more functional movements and build strength! Donovan is a tremendous PT.

Peak Performance Therapy is such an incredible resource. Incredibly knowledgeable crew. I have collaborated with Brian and recently I have received several effective weeks of therapy from Donovan. Everyone is incredibly kind and professional. I can’t recommend these guys enough.

I began working with Brian after many months of physical therapy for extreme lower back pain that was just not responding to treatment. I’d reached the point of investigating surgical options when a friend suggested that I try functional physical therapy first. Brian had been recommended to her and she strongly recommended him to me. By the end of our first session I felt better and it was clear that I’d made the right choice. Brian spent over an hour with me, took a full history and really listened to the description of my symptoms. Back issues can be so complex and referred pain can add to the difficulty of sorting through the sources of it. Unlike with my other physical therapists, I felt like I had a partner. At every turn Brian seemed invested in resolving my problem. He taught me exercises to ease the pain while also strengthening my core and back. As importantly, he taught me techniques for navigating through the day — how to properly sit, walk, rise from a lying position, etc. Brian works hard. Some of our sessions were probably as taxing for him as they were for me, but he remained positive and optimistic throughout. His magic works, I’m functioning normally again and am so appreciative of his efforts. I could not recommend him more strongly.

Brian Tenenhaus is the BEST PT person in Connecticut. He is extremely knowledgeable even when presented with ‘not the norm’ physical limitations. He is the first PT I have seen (out of over a dozen) that sat me down to do a full evaluation and listened to my concerns. Brian is empathetic and realistic when setting goals. It’s a win-win for all. You won’t regret a thing.

For over a year I had problems with my lower back. I tried physical therapy but it didn’t help. Then a friend told me about Brian at Peak Performance. I couldn’t believe the progress I made through my sessions with Brian. Unlike many physical therapists, Brian focuses on how you function. How you lift things, how you get in and out of bed, how you walk, etc. He asks lots of questions about what triggers your pain and then addresses each one with practical suggestions. I’m so grateful to him for getting me back to my old self. If I could give him 10 stars I would. Highly recommend!!!!

Not like any other PT, this is a unique PT experience (even fun!). Brian is extremely knowledgeable and a good listener. For that one hour, he gives all of his attention and energy. He really personalized the experience to my needs (recovery from hip surgery, carpel tunnel). He played a huge role in finally living pain-free. It's no wonder he came recommended to me by an athlete all the way in California!

I have seen 6+ physical therapists in CT over the last year and can confidently say that Brian is absolutely, hands-down the best. He is extremely knowledgeable, passionate about helping his patients, and genuinely an enjoyable person to be around. Unlike other PT practices, where the therapist spends 5-10 minutes with you before pawning you off on a significantly less qualified aide, Brian spends the entire session focused on only you. I truly cannot recommend Peak PTW enough!

After a sudden back injury last week, the day before I was leaving to go on vacation, amazingly Brian squeezed me in at the end of his long day. As a new patient, the fact that he went out of his way to do that just in order to help me, was incredible! He was extremely caring and knowledgeable, and when I left his office I felt like a different person, and one who could actually get on a plane the next day! I highly recommend Brian and Peak Performance. I am so grateful for his skill, dedication, and exceptional expertise!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!
