OUR STORY
As Elevate evolved, we came to understand the significance of the transitional phase between the conclusion of physical therapy and the return to fitness and wellness. This critical juncture can often be challenging, and we recognized the need to provide comprehensive solutions. Thus, we have developed tailored programs designed to empower you to not only recover but to flourish on your path to optimal health. With this in mind, Elevate's owner chose to operate out of the BioFit gym as their vision, mission and goals directly aligns with that of Elevate; that everyone deserves to live a life free of pain and injury.
Today, Elevate strives to be a pillar of support and a beacon of expertise within our community. Our story is characterized by resilience, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to your well-being. We are dedicated to transforming lives and are honored to be part of your journey to a healthier, happier life.

CLIENT TESTIMIONIALS
“When I came to Jacob (at BioFit), it was for pain in my neck and heel. I needed a program to incorporate both with the compassion to listen to how I feel during my sessions when we target them and if it interferes with the other. Well, I found it. I am now pain free able to walk without a AFO brace for my heel. I am on the mend for my neck and increasing my body tone finally after not being able to after 5 years. Jacob has been a great trainer for me and his programs he works for me has worked."
SHELLEY C.
“I am 64 and I have arthritis. When I started with Jacob
(at BioFit), I had injured my joints through overworking them and I needed physical therapy. I wished for finding a personal trainer who was also a physical therapist. My wish came true with Jacob. The workouts are great. He pushes me in ways that make me stronger, but never so hard that it causes injury. In fact, he will address any pain I may have with a therapeutic approach. The pain I previously felt in my joints is now practically gone. Most of the time I don't feel any pain at all. Plus, I am now walking 2-3 miles per day. I have more endurance for hiking and exploring. It has been great! I look forward to continuing to get stronger and more fit."
