Welcome to Peak Physiotherapy and Performance. At the heart of our practice is Andrew Junak, PT, DPT, OCS, Cert.DN, whose passion for sports medicine and innovative, holistic approach to physical therapy sets us apart. Andrew specializes in helping active adults and athletes not just recover but continue training during rehabilitation using natural, non-invasive methods. Whether you’re a CrossFit enthusiast, runner, pickleballer, or any type of athlete, we aim to keep you in the game while addressing your injury through holistic, drug-free treatments.
“I’m passionate about this field because I believe there are natural and holistic ways we can heal without resorting to medication, injections, and surgery. Our healthcare system often defaults to those, but they don’t always get to the root of problems when it comes to muscle, tendon, ligament, bone, and nerve issues. These problems can often be solved without injections, surgery, or medications. My goal was to bring that approach to the Columbus area.”
