Dr. Larry Frank, the owner of Fuel, is exceptional.

Larry agreed to take me as patient several months back with a shoulder injury. His help and guidance was nothing short of remarkable for me.”

Don't Lose Your Active Lifestyle

What can you afford to lose by not fixing your pain or getting stronger today?

Performance Decline: What begins as a minor limitation today silently transforms into the barrier that keeps you sidelined tomorrow. Don't let small issues compound into career-ending setbacks.

Compensation Cascade: Your body is an interconnected system. When you adapt to one pain point, you're unknowingly creating vulnerability elsewhere—setting the stage for a cycle of recurring injuries.

Lifestyle Interrupted: The Wheeling trails, courts, and fields that define your active identity shouldn't become just fond memories. Your weekend plans should still include the activities you love, not reminiscing about them.

He helped my son in his final phase of his ACL recovery and Larry’s experience and expertise was exactly what was needed to prepare my son to return to sport. We are very grateful for Larry’s expertise and would highly recommend him to anyone recovering from an injury that wants to regain strength and function to return to sport.

"Larry worked with my daughter after a hamstring tear. He’s knowledgeable and professional and did an amazing job getting her back onto the soccer field…pushing her in all the right ways to regain her strength and explosiveness. Best of all he build great rapport with her and was communicative throughout the process. Highly recommended!"
