Dr. Jeremy Busch, DC, DACBSP, ICSC

For nearly 20 years, Dr. Jeremy Busch has helped athletes and active adults overcome injury, restore strength, and rediscover confidence in their bodies. His career bridges the highest levels of elite sports medicine and compassionate, faith-driven community care right here in the Shenandoah Valley.
From the Sidelines of the Olympics to the Shenandoah Valley
For more than two decades, Dr. Jeremy Busch has served as part of Olympic, Paralympic, PGA Tour, The World Games, and collegiate sports medicine teams, treating athletes whose performance — and livelihood — depend on precise, collaborative recovery.
Since founding Performance Sport & Spine, Dr. Busch has continued to work within these elite communities while bringing that same high-performance level of care home to the Shenandoah Valley.
Through those experiences, he witnessed how world-class teams operate — chiropractors, physicians, physical therapists, and performance specialists all working together with speed, clarity, and purpose to get athletes out of pain and back to peak performance.
That environment shaped his vision.
He asked a simple but defining question:
“Why should that level of care only belong to the elite?”
The answer became the THRIVE Protocol™ — a system that delivers the same precision, collaboration, and recovery strategies trusted by the world’s best athletes to every patient seeking relief from pain, disc injuries, and movement limitations.

The THRIVE Protocol™: A System Born from Experience
Through years of working in high-stakes environments, Dr. Busch saw one undeniable truth: healing requires a system, not a session.
The THRIVE Protocol™ he developed unites advanced chiropractic care, functional rehabilitation, and targeted physiologic therapies to move patients from pain → progress → performance.
Every plan is precise, progressive, and purposeful — designed to get patients better, faster, for longer.
At PSS, patients are not viewed as cases but as athletes in training — what Dr. Busch calls the THRIVE Tribe. Each person is guided through stages of recovery — Rookie, Contender, Champion — mirroring the same progression elite athletes follow to rebuild and perform.
Faith, Family & Purpose
Dr. Busch’s work is driven by a deep Christian faith and a heart for serving others. His family attends Fellowship Bible Church in Winchester, VA, and his kids are extremely active within the kids and youth ministry. He views healing as both a science and a ministry — an opportunity to help people restore the strength and purpose they were designed for. His commitment to stewardship, integrity and excellence extends beyond the clinic, influencing how he leads, teaches, and cares for every patient.
When he’s not in the office, you’ll find Dr. Busch outdoors with his wife, Jenna, and their two children — playing music, hiking, kayaking, playing basketball, or working on projects around their family farmette — living out the same active, balanced lifestyle he encourages in those he serves.
