Welcome to
Pain Free Performance
Physical Rehabilitation and Manual Therapy in Sedona, Arizona
You Don’t Have to Live With Pain
You were designed to move and achieve.
Optimal health requires movement for your body and internal organs to operate at peak efficiency.
However, many of us sit and use our brains more than our bodies these days, leading to poor posture and musculoskeletal imbalances. Over time, we slowly begin to “wear” our bodies differently, adopting new motor pattern strategies for daily routines, leading to pain.
I utilize advanced myofascial release, manual therapy, and select exercise progressions to correct musculoskeletal imbalances, postural misalignments, and movement dysfunctions. I begin with a brief look at your posture and movement patterns. If you participate in a particular sport or recreation, I will assess your movement and biomechanics for those specific activities as well.
My goal is to empower you with self-knowledge and awareness of your specific body and movement patterns that contribute to pain, and provide you with a basic understanding of how to overcome pain and regain your joy and enthusiasm for living.
I help you retrain your body, rebuild strength, and return to the activities you love… pain-free.

Reviews for Michael Rende, OTR
“Michael is a highly skilled medical practitioner with an incredible and intuitive healing touch that only comes from years of practice…. A true healer.”
“Headaches and jaw pain made it very difficult to focus on homework and at school. Michael was able to balance my whole body bring my neck and jaw with better alignment. I don’t have problems with jaw pain or headaches anymore.”
“I have endured chronic neck pain for years. I tried all kinds of therapy with little long term success. Michaels whole body approach traced the roots of my problem to my pelvis imbalance and poor core stabilization. No longer have neck pain and drive up from Phoenix monthly to get a tune up.”
“Feel so blessed to have Michael Rende for Myofascial Release therapy! Thank you so much!”
“The best ever!!!!”
“Personable and knowledgeable. A therapist with sense of humor.”

“The REAL DEAL = feeling that the pain has really resolved, and that good instructions have been given. Michael Rende does both.”
“The sessions Michael provided were more than expected.He is very thorough, engaging and intuitive.He enjoys helping others and it is very obvious.”
“I’ve dealt with chronic lower back pain for years from sitting at a computer all day, and nothing ever seemed to truly help. Working with Michael has been a game-changer. He didn’t just treat the pain, he helped me understand what was causing it and showed me how to move, stretch, and strengthen properly. For the first time in a long time, I can sit, stand, and work without constant discomfort. I’m so grateful I found him.”
“My golf swing had been inconsistent for years because of stiffness and limited mobility, especially through my hips and lower back. After working with Michael, everything changed. He helped identify where my body was compensating and gave me targeted exercises to improve movement and control. Now my swing feels smoother, stronger, and more effortless, and my game has noticeably improved.”
