Performance Sport & Spine

Do you lift but something bothers you from lifting heavy? Zach is the guy. I had a shoulder problem for so long. I have visited other chiropractors and it kind a helped but it was temporary. Zach was really helpful since he also works out. He immediately understood what I was going through and knew what to do. Exercises Zach taught me was really helpful. Now my shoulder is way better and I am so pleased with the result. :)

Zach was very knowledgeable about my knee issue (patellar tendinosis) and talked through several strengthening exercises. They have helped a lot and I’m back to playing soccer now. Zach is easy to talk to and gives great explanations as to why certain exercises will be beneficial. It was nice that he checked in on my progress several times, and also provided some additional tips for improvement. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would visit again!

When I first went in to see Zach, I was expecting chiropractic adjustments to put my bones back in place. Zach does not do this because it only treats the symptoms. Instead to fix the problem from the root cause, he taught me exercises to strengthen the weak muscles that was causing the bones to mis-​align.
After the exercises, I walked away from the first session feeling the muscles that I have not been using come alive and my whole body moved more smoothly. I have been practicing diligently and I can tell my muscles are developing and getting stronger even in the two weeks since the first session. I am very grateful to Zach for showing me how to exercise to get to that particular muscle.

Dr. Zach is more than just a chiropractor. He is a problem solver. He listens to his patients, finds the core of the problem, addresses that core problem, and gives you the resources you need to correct future problems on your own. He is extremely efficient in his care and easy to work with. Your time will not be wasted. I would highly recommend his services.

I was referred to Performance Sport and Spine by my chiropractor because I moved out to Redmond from Federal Way and I didn’t know anyone out here so I was really anxious about going somewhere new.
My TMJ started to act up and I was in a lot more pain than I had been before. Zach offered to come in on his day off and he was very personable and really helpful. He told me he would also look into other techniques or exercises that would help. I started to feel better after about 5 visits. As a result of the TMJ my neck and head started to hurt, he addressed those issues and also gave me a couple exercises to help. After actually getting better as a result of his treatment it was an easy decision to go back to fix a badly sprained ankle.
I would definitely recommend going to see him, he gets great results, is very personable and will go out of his way for his patients!

I fulled a muscle on my neck. Dr. Zack was able to get me into straighten me out. I wasn’t able to turn my neck. After seeing DR. Zack it’s all better now. I like how he doesnt just go in and cracked my neck and call it good. He works with muscles around my neck n back. Thank you Dr. Zack

I’ve been to multiple places and have never felt better than after Zach worked on me. Highly recommend this place! Whether it’s from a sport injury or chronic pain, Zach will figure out the issue quickly and get it feeling better. He truly cares about his patients and cares about his job.

Dr. Zach gets immediate results. My shoulder and neck pain has been chronic for years, and both are feeling much better. Dr. Zach isolated the problem areas and began stretch and massage (I believe this is the Active Release Technology part). He gave me exercises to try, and checked for improvement before suggesting the right ones to do as homework. He has helped multiple friends as well — serious athletes who need immediate solutions to stay in training and on track for races and personal goals.
If you’re looking for a modern and personalized approach to treatment, this may be ideal for you. It’s totally different from a conventional chiropractor with a generic approach (e.g., 2 minute adjustment, quite high impact (read: actual pain and soreness from the adjustment itself) and hassle of weekly visits)). You are in control of your progress and improvement, and while this does often require some exercises and work on your part, it is so much more effective and efficient than the conventional «weekly visits no matter what» approach.
Dr. Zach clearly loves treating patients and is very intentional about customizing plans to help people do things that pain is currently preventing them from doing. I really appreciate his considerate, rational attitude as well.

Went in to Performance Sport & Spine with a shoulder separation & pain, Dr Zach has quickly tested & diagnosed the problem, got me to start a physical therapy & within days I can see the difference in range of motion, reach & slowly getting back to normal, highly recommend Performance Sport & Spine to anyone with similar cases

I came to Dr. Zack as a last resort, four days before a big race with knee pain that was not going away after visits to three different physical therapists. One visit with Dr. Zack and the pain was pretty much gone. After just two sessions I went from being unable to run a mile without experience excruciating pain to racing a half-​marathon.
Dr. Zack is effective and unlike other folks in the business, focuses on long term solutions instead of short term fixes. It’s clear that he strives to continue his education to provide the best care for his patients. Every time I’ve seen Dr. Zack the results are tangible and immediate.

I am an athlete. Always have been, always will be. I got into weightlifting to get better at sports during my school years all the way through college. Now I lift more competitively. With that being said, you always get tweaks here and there. Zach, especially being an athlete himself, always tends to my needs and makes me feel brand new! He has a great way of individualizing any issues to every specific person so no two people come in and get the same stenciled treatment.
Whether you’re coming in for help from issues with a car accident, recovery, or just every day maintenance, Zach is the guy to go to. For me, longevity is the name of the game, and he helps provide just that. Also, he gives you exercises you can do yourself at home to help improve your situation. For Zach, it really is about helping you get to feeling 100% better and not trying to drain every last bit of money from you.
Im just happy I found a guy who can relate to my issues and help me stay injury free! If you’re ever in Redmond or the surrounding areas, I would highly, highly recommend coming to Performance Sport & Spine and seeing Zach!

Dr. Zach is great to work with. His Active Release Therapy is effective for tight muscle and Graston technique works well for any soft tissue injury.
He is also willing to work around your schedule which is very important if you also happen to have a busy schedule.

As a sports performance coach and fitness trainer, when I encounter athletes/​clients with advanced muscular imbalances, well developed compensation patterns and often pain to accompany these issues, I seek out the help of advanced education peers to assist with getting my athletes back on track.
Dr. Greenwade has been a tremendous help in advising me on proven methods for getting to the root cause of my clients’ issues, eliminating their pain and and most importantly advancing their strength and structure in order to avoid more pain/​injuries down the road.
In both his education and his own life as an athlete, his ‘never settle for less’ drive have given him a wide range of tools and experience to pull from when treating and advising his clients. This allows him to approach issues from many different perspectives, as opposed to the typical one size fits all practice.
And best of all, he is relatable and a wickedly FUNNY guy that loves teaching, training and living life fully!
I am incredibly fortunate to have him as a ‘go to’ expert and mentor for my practice.

I had the same chiropractor for 20 years and thought he was the best. However, my location and busy schedule had me looking for someone new that could be comparable. After several months of searching I found Dr. Zach Greenwade. I couldn’t me more pleased! Dr. Zach’s knowledge, and use of ART and Graston combined with chiropractic care has surpassed my expectations of finding a comparable chiropractor. I feel better when I walk out the door of his office and stay better longer than I have in a while.
My husband has suffered from a back injury for many years. He recently also began seeing Dr. Zach and after just 3 visits feels his technique is working.

Dr. Greenwade is always my go-​to. I suffered lack of mobility and pain for months from an injury and spent weeks and hundreds of dollars at a major clinic for treatment from physical therapists and specialists. After seeing no improvement, I saw Dr. Greenwade and after just one session I had immediate pain relief and the ability to perform basic movements that I hadn’t been able to do due to my injury.
He always goes the extra step to assess and give a well-​rounded treatment plan that suits your needs and never gives you the run around or tries to book you for more appointments than absolutely needed. Whether its for treatment for an injury or ongoing self care, I definitely recommend.

I’ve had a bad experience with chiropractic in the past and was very skeptical and nervous about trying one again. After seeing the positive reviews I decided to give Dr. Greenwade a chance. He did not disappoint. Not your traditional chiropractor, which is what I like. He’s very easy to talk to and doesn’t try to get you to make more appointments than are necessary. I highly recommend him.

The best chiropractic care! I have been in to see Zach countless times, and have never been treated so well by any other provider. If he can’t find a solution to a problem you’re having, he will bring you in day after day until he finds something that works for you. Zach takes the time to make sure you’re feeling confident with home exercises, and analyzes your lifestyle to get a better look as to why you may be having certain issues. I have never been impressed with chiropractors in general, but Zach completely changed my mind! However, I will not be going to see just any chiropractor now. I prefer him over anyone else.

I went to Performance Sport & Spine due to consistent neck pain, and continue to go because I liked the approach. I appreciate Zach’s straightforward style to change the muscle and skeletal alignment, rather than just ‘cracking backs’. I like that he gives me exercises to find permanent solutions rather than forcing me to relay on a chiropractor for life.

I was looking for a chiropractor in the region and was afraid of running into one of those doctors that focus on short term healing instead of focusing on the long term solution. Zach is absolutely the latter kind ! two visits with him and my back pains are almost gone ! He also showed me some easy to do desk exercises that I can keep doing in order to prevent the problem from arising again.
To top it off he is super easy going and it feels like you are going to visit a friend when going to his office. Very professional too — easy to schedule appointments and email reminders etc.
So if you are looking for a chiropractor in the region — come here !

A chiropractor who actually says CrossFit is ok?! Finding Dr. Greenwade was like finding a mermaid… a unicorn… BigFoot! You get my drift, right?
I’ve been to my fair share of chiropractors, most of which creeped me out. Not Dr. Greenwade. He was very approachable and listened to my needs. I’d started a pretty intense strength training program and my body needed to be maintenanced. If you’re looking for a quick crack, this isn’t your guy. If you want a permanent fix, stop reading Unilocal reviews and call him.
Dr. Greenwade’s back-​to-​basics mentality is exactly what everyone needs from a good chiropractor. He’s not afraid to say when his work is done instead of charging you for appointment after appointment just to fatten his bottom line.
To sum this guy up in just a few words: educational, caring, and simply put, really damn good. Give him a go. You won’t regret it.
