A new book just hit the stores, and it’s a gem. BALLISTIC: THE NEW SCIENCE OF INJURY-FREE ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE is close to our LAB hearts. The author, Henry Abbott, writes an “inspiring narrative that tells the story of sports scientist [and LAB owner] Dr. Marcus Elliott and the Peak Performance Project who use technology to study how athletes move and why they get hurt.” Henry Abbott spent a week with us at THE LAB, going through the same assessments and training as our members, while doing research for BALLISTIC. Congratulations Henry, and we can’t wait to host you and Marcus at THE LAB for a discussion and Q&A on June 13.

What is Shock Wave Therapy?

A medical device that sends shock waves to your injured tendons, ligaments, and soft tissue, increasing blood flow, breaking down calcium deposits, and stimulating the healing process. Or as LAB physical therapist Zach Finer puts it, “Shock Wave Therapy accelerates the healing process by imparting mechanical energy into the injured or damaged tissue.”

Can’t shake plantar fasciitis? Struggling with achilles or patellar tendinopathy? Shock Wave Therapy could be the answer.

Shock Wave Therapy is one more modality in THE LAB lineup of recovery tools that can help you speed up your recovery from pain or injury. Most often used for plantar fasciitis, achilles or patellar tendinopathy, hamstring, hip, and shoulder injuries. Our most common patients come in with golf and tennis elbow.

Big news for THE LAB staff member Jill Martin. For those of you who do not know, we have the privilege of having Jill Martin on staff with us at THE LAB. She plays a pivotal role as our director of our movement classes. BUT, did you know she’s a dominant Pickleball player and student of the sport? Read below to learn more about her most recent book release. 


Not just another book about how to play pickleball, “Pickleball Mindset” dives deep into how to think on the court. Coauthored by Dayne Gingrich, top senior professional pickleball player and renowned mental performance coach; and Jill Martin, an attorney turned personal trainer and pickleball fanatic, the book follows their year-long coaching relationship in which Jill seeks to become mentally dominant on and off the court. In each chapter, Dayne explores the what, why, and how of mental performance strategies he has used in his athletic and coaching career. Jill then shares her real-time bumps, bruises, and celebrations as she works to incorporate each strategy into both her game and life.


We are so proud of you Jill 🥳♥️

Did you know that inflammation is a natural response of the body’s defensive mechanism?

Inflammation is used by the immune system to help recognize and subsequently remove harmful stimuli.
This reaction is part of your body’s natural healing process. However, at some point the body’s reaction becomes detrimental to healing and should be decreased to avoid the negative effects of inflammation.

We intentionally prescribe a Whole Body Cryotherapy
(WBC) regimen to our clients based on the type of inflammation they are experiencing. Our goal is for each WBC prescription is to effectively get in front of their inflammation cycle. By doing so we help our clients’ bodies to be more capable of self regulating their inflammation levels.

Here are a few different types of inflammation we treat here at THE LAB:
• Chronic Inflammation inflammation
• Acute
• Autoimmune disease
• Inflammation caused by strenuous physical activity

If you are experiencing inflammation we would love to help you. Feel free to come by or give us a call!
