About Us
Built for athletes. Backed by evidence. Based in Scottsdale.
BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE,
RECOVERY, AND LONGEVITY
Motus Performance & Wellness was created to bridge the gap between traditional treatment and real performance training. Instead of focusing only on symptoms, we evaluate how your body moves and why the issue started in the first place.
Our approach combines hands-on care, rehabilitation, and strength-based training to help you recover from injury, improve durability, and move with confidence.
Every plan is built around your goals — whether that means returning to sport, improving performance, or simply living without pain. Our goal is simple: help you move better, recover faster, and stay active for the long run.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND MOTUS
Experienced, certified, and dedicated to helping you move better and perform at your best.
Dr. Stu Krick
Over the past 15+ years, I've worked with athletes, golfers, and active individuals stuck in the same frustrating cycle: pain, temporary relief, and the same issue coming back. The problem isn't just the injury. It's how the body moves. That's why I built Motus.
My background spans performance training, injury rehabilitation, hands-on treatment, and golf-specific movement, allowing me to see the full picture and connect how your body moves to how you perform. At Motus, assessment, treatment, training, and recovery are fully integrated under one roof.

Chad Nelson
Since discovering my passion for golf fitness in 2008, I've dedicated myself to studying and collaborating with top coaches and experts in the field. I've had the privilege of training junior golfers, PGA professionals, and everyday athletes, helping people of all ages and fitness levels move better, perform stronger, and feel their best.
My foundation in Exercise Physiology from the University of Northern Colorado led me through cardiac rehab and Strength & Conditioning at the University of Denver before bringing me to Arizona over 20 years ago. I believe lasting change comes from consistent effort, smart training, and addressing the whole person: fitness, nutrition, sleep, and mindset together.

A CLEAR PLAN FOR RECOVERY
AND PERFORMANCE
Many people receive treatment for pain but never address the underlying movement limitations that caused the injury in the first place. At Motus, we take a different approach. Instead of focusing only on symptoms, we assess how your body moves and build a plan that restores mobility, improves strength, and helps you perform without limitations.
Assess
We evaluate how your body moves to identify mobility restrictions, stability limitations, and strength deficits.
Restore
Hands-on treatment, targeted rehabilitation, mobility work, and advanced modalities to reduce pain and correct movement limitations.
Perform
Strength and performance training to build durability, power, and long-term resilience.
