What Flagstaff athletes are saying

Real experiences from active people who've worked with Cadence Performance.

As an avid cyclist, I’ve seen my share of overuse injuries, imbalances, and post-crash recoveries. Since day one (I'm a long time client), Eric has taken the time to understand the demands of cycling and how it affects the body. He didn’t just throw generic exercises at me. He built a personalized plan that actually addressed the root(s) of the issue(s) and helped me get back on the bike stronger and more stable than before. Eric combines a vast knowledge of biomechanics with the ability to explain things clearly. He understands athletes and will push you just enough to make progress without overdoing it. If you’re an athlete in Northern Arizona dealing with injury, burnout, or just looking to improve performance through better movement - this is the place to go.
Kyle Hornbeck
Eric is well regarded in Flagstaff as a best in class PT and an exceptional professional and human. I’m a local in Flag for 30+ years. I run this body hard, doing all of the outdoor things in life. I’ve seen him for many injuries and surgery recoveries over the years. He has always been extremely efficient and effective in addressing the core deficiencies to get this body back healthy and stronger. I’ve referred countless colleagues, friends, and family over the years to him because he is the best. What are you waiting for?
Chris
He is extremely knowledgeable, and is able to explain everything to me without me being confused. He is easy to talk to. The homework he gave me never seemed overwhelming...it was achievable and easy to understand. I will go to him when I need physical therapy again. Hopefully I don't injure myself too soon!
