Hip Pain Shouldn't Stop You From Living Your Active Life

  • Stuck on the Sidelines

    Missing training sessions, races, and the activities that energize you. Your hip pain is keeping you from the lifestyle you've worked hard to maintain.

  • Cookie-Cutter Treatment Plans

    Generic protocols that don't address your unique goals as an athlete or active individual. You need a plan built around your body and your passions.

  • Rushed, Insurance-Driven Care

    15-minute sessions with assistants instead of getting the focused attention and expertise you deserve from a qualified physical therapist.

  • Real Results From Greenville Athletes

    “I can't say enough good things about Matt and Reliving Performance Physical Therapy. I was deep into training for a mountain 50K and injured my calf on a midweek run. Matt was able to work me into his schedule and get me back to the trails. The recovery plan was efficient and effective. There were no unnecessary treatment plans, just the work that I needed to address my injury and keep me moving. I would not have made it to the start line of my race without Matt and highly recommend him and Reliving Performance Physical Therapy.”

What Greenville Athletes Are Saying

  • “I saw Matt about a month ago when I was dealing with some knee pain that was impacting my ability to stick to my running schedule. Matt conducted a running assessment on my first visit, and was able to provide me with a strength routine and the data to back up how each exercise would tune up any metrics that looked out of the ordinary. Today, I am running with no pain, and feel stronger than ever in my training. I highly recommend anyone dealing with similar issues to schedule a visit!”

    Matthew N.

  • “Matt has been incredibly helpful with a few different issues I've had over the last year. The assessment and diagnosis is thorough and I can't overstate how good it feels to be treated by someone who understands the ins and outs of running that I was trying to get back to. I recommend Matt to any athlete who wants to get back to their old self or improve their performance post-injury!“

    Erin M.

  • "Matt is professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. He helped me get back on track after I had a flare up of a chronic knee injury that I have struggled with for years. I'm back on the bike now and continuing to make good progress thanks to his guidance and knowledge."
