Spinal Decompression Therapy
Our non-surgical spinal decompression therapy alleviates pain from herniated or slipped discs by relieving pressure on spinal nerves. This treatment promotes disc healing and nerve function, ideal for federal workers with chronic back injuries. Patients benefit from reduced pain and improved mobility without surgical risks.
Chiropractic Care
Specialized chiropractic adjustments correct spinal subluxations and musculoskeletal imbalances. Using the ProAdjuster technology, we deliver precise, gentle corrections to enhance nervous system function, reduce pain, and improve physical performance for postal workers and other federal employees.
Regenerative Medicine
Platelet-rich plasma therapy utilizes patients' own blood to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. Effective for knee, shoulder, and joint injuries, this non-surgical treatment promotes long-term healing and functional recovery for federal workers' chronic or acute conditions.
Physical Therapy
Custom physical therapy programs address post-injury rehabilitation and chronic pain management. Our therapists use core stabilization, myofascial release, and kinesio-taping techniques to restore range of motion, strength, and work readiness for federal employees.
OWCP Case Management
We specialize in OWCP claim documentation, causation linkage, and form processing for federal workers. Our team ensures accurate medical reporting, claim approval assistance, and coordinated care to maximize benefits for injured postal, TSA, and VA employees.

As an ex gymnast, I've been coming to peak performance for 30 years! Dr. Arculeo and his staff have healed me a few times, I've fully recovered from old sports injuries, at 60 years old, I've developed a recent sciatica condition! One treatment from Dr. Arculeo, yesterday has made a huge difference! I'm on my 3rd total body transformation within the past 24 years and couldn't have gotten through it without Dr. Arculeo's expert work and great advice.
I live near Lake Geneva, Wisconsin now, but it's worth the drive. I recommend getting a hotel room if you travel because we need to rest after treatment. If you're looking to fully recover, this is the place for you! Thanks So Much For Your Expertise!! Dr. Arculeo, you've made a huge difference in my life over the years! Your staff is Awesome, as well!

There's all these commercials on TV, podcasts, and articles talking about various kinds of painkillers. I shall not name them here-I am sure you know what I am talking about. Well, have you heard about Peak Performance Health Center on Wells in Chicago? Simply put, I walked in with pain and I walked out without pain. What more can you ask? It's been a week now and surprisingly, my shoulder is still pain free.
I am amazed at what has happened with a simple twist of the body. Given that I have been a patient at Peak Performance for almost a year now receiving effective treatments for knee and shoulder pain that work over time, it was awe inspiring to experience what the body can do given the right conditions in an instant. A Peak Performance Health Center may not work for everybody but it definitely works for me! If you really want a painkiller, visit 1749 N Wells. I am so glad I did! Dr. Arculeo and his staff are the best!

I started visiting Peak Performance in February of 2021. At first I was a little skeptical about going but the staff at Peak Performance is amazing. Before going I suffered from chronic migranes, a condition I have had to endure for over 40 years. With a combination of physical therapy and adjustments I can honestly say that I have had fewer headaches and sleep better at night. I want to thank the physical therapist for her patience and I promise to keep working so that all of her hard work doesn't go to waste.

Scientology guides the medical advice at this practice. The proprietor of this practice is less interested in his patients than he is in himself. He never remembers your name even with 2-3 visits/week. They sell you packages you pay for upfront, claiming it's better than your high deductible, then they appear to double dip with the insurance companies. It'll catch up to them eventually. I've met others who've had similar experiences here. Try any other chiropractor first or at least seek a second opinion before making any significant treatment decisions at this clown show.

I can not say anything except when I went to Peak Performance I made the best decision of my life. I was afraid I was going to need knee replacement surgery (I had some bone on bone problems). After a short 5 weeks, I am going up and down stairs, moving around like I am 20 years younger, sleeping thru the night without waking myself my moving the wrong way and experiencing horrible pain. I still have more treatments to repair my knees but I am so happy with the progress made so far. If you have osteoarthritis (which is what I have) you really need to make an appointment here before considering surgery. You will not regret it.
