Dr. Edward Virgil opened Peak Posture & Performance PLLC with the intention of creating a practice that would combine the best of sport therapy, functional medicine, and spinal rehab to help every individual excel no matter the age or job. For example, scoliosis can fall into all three therapies needed for best outcome!
With over 10 years of clinical experience, Dr. Edward Virgil's practice follows the philosophy that therapy is most successful when people are treated as whole human beings, not as individual parts, and his work is focused on finding and treating the root causes. As a doctor his goal is to help every individual understand their own body.
