Steve Tyssee, Founder & DPT
Dr. Steve Tyssee founded Peak Orthopedic Physical Therapy 20 years ago with a passion for helping people live their best lives pain-free. Now with three physical therapy clinics in Southern California, Dr. Tyssee is expanding his reach to help as many people as possible. He has always been dedicated to providing every patient with a personalized, one-on-one approach to rehabilitation and believes in working in partnership with his patients to manage their overall health and wellness.
Although Dr. Tyssee is no longer treating patients for physical therapy, he remains active in the physical therapy community overseeing his practice and ensuring that the integrity the company was built on remains the core value of his staff in all clinics.
Alongside his physical therapy practice, Dr. Tyssee created Peak Health & Fitness, a medical exercise program that is personally designed for people of all fitness levels. His team of experts understands how exercise relates to specific medical conditions and ensures patients are safely maximizing the benefits of their workout routine. The program is open to patients and the community.
After having thousands of patients come through his doors over the years, Dr. Tyssee made it his mission to find an answer to the one question he was asked most frequently—how could they reduce pain and inflammation in their bodies without the use of drugs and injections? Wanting to help find a natural solution for his patients, Dr. Tyssee began his journey into advanced, holistic approaches to health and became a certified nutritionist.
In 2017, Dr. Tyssee launched Peak Total Wellness, a pain management, weight-optimization and lifestyle program designed to help people with unresolved weight loss and inflammatory issues. His focus is on healing the body using lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, sleep and meditation and eliminating the need for medications and their damaging side effects. Through scientific lab testing and analysis, Dr. Tyssee identifies the root cause of disease and develops a personalized treatment plan for his patients based on individual biochemistry, lifestyle and genetic predisposition that results in less inflammation and pain and improved overall wellness.
Dr. Tyssee continues to expand his health and wellness programs across multiple platforms and remains committed to sharing his message of wellness with both his patients and the broader community. More information can be found at peaktotalwellness.com.
