They offer three modalities: the Normatec compression boots, the Celluma red light therapy, and the Hypervolt percussion massage combined with assisted stretching. My favorite is the compression boots. After a long hike or run, the compression therapy makes my legs feel amazing! Decreased soreness and tightness. The room is clean, relaxing, and easy to book. If you're on the fence, just try one session in the Wellness Room. Highly recommend Body Synergy for anyone looking for both quality physical therapy and top-notch recovery care.

What makes me keep coming back after all these years is how good I feel when I go there and the service and skill I receive from Veronica. I have recommended them to many people and would continue to do so. It looks like I wrote a review in 2016 and I still agree that they keep up to date with treatments and options for any body issue.. Thank you Body Synergy for all the care over the years..

I underwent physical therapy sessions following knee surgery…read more Chris was friendly and very helpful. Six months later, I am pleased with my recovery. I continue to do the exercises Chris taught me three times a week, and that is likely why the twelve sessions covered by my insurance were sufficient.

I can't say enough good things about Lorena and Alex. Truly one of the best experiences I've ever…read morehad with physical therapy. From the very first session, they were incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in helping me feel better. They took the time to really understand what was going on with my body and built a plan that felt tailored, intentional, and effective. And the results speak for themselves. I came in feeling stiff, limited, and honestly a little broken... and somehow they worked magic. I feel stronger, more mobile, and more in tune with my body than I have in a long time. It genuinely feels like they took me from Pinocchio to a real boy. Beyond that, the energy they bring is amazing: encouraging, positive, and super professional while still making every session enjoyable. You can tell they really care about what they do and the people they're helping. If you're even thinking about physical therapy, stop searching and just book with them. Absolute game changers.

Dr Ryan Clarke was the BEST DPT!…read more I developed sciatica in my left leg with painful symptoms from my buttocks down to my toes. Dr Ryan was experienced in treating these issues and over a short period of time under his care, I was pain free and back to normal. On my first session, he asked many questions about my sciatica. The most impressive thing he asked was what type of activities that I'd like to get back to doing if I didn't have sciatica. For me I wanted my short term goals to being able to do yard work, to be able to carry my dog into the car so I could drive her to a park for our daily walks and to be able in 3 months to dance with my grandkids at a annual community festival. With my short term goals understood, Dr Ryan made sure his exercises were geared to allow me to achieve my short term goals! At each session, he gave me massages that helped relieve my stiffness and his stretching and strength exercises during my hour session helped me feel better each day. Then I progressed to my more strenuous exercises. At the beginning of each session, Dr Ryan greeted me with a smile and asked questions about my current condition. When I did have pain on days prior, Dr Ryan immediately came up with a game plan for my session but also explained to me why I was having my symptoms. It was nice to know that he was a good listener and cared about making me physically better. I would highly recommend Dr Ryan Clarke to anyone seeking a diligent, caring and problem solving DPT!

Vincent Physical Therapy is great. I went to them after having broken both elbows and a shoulder…read more I'm making progress and getting back to being fully functional. The therapist I've used is Dan Woodward. Their desk administrator, Teresa, is very helpful and works with your schedule to find the right fit.

Excellent experience! Here's why:…read more 1. I had a bad case of vertigo and was told by my doctor to find a PT for treatment. This was an urgent medical condition and couldn't wait. Vincent PT was the only place that would squeeze me in on short notice. I am very thankful they took me in as a new walk-in patient and the short story is that the treatment worked - the results were immediate and lasting. 2. Teresa at the front desk was super nice when I called and when I arrived in person. She was very patient, knew what treatment I needed based on my condition, was the one who squeezed me in to the busy schedule, and was very pleasant getting my information (as a new patient) and then the next day when I called back to update my status. Great customer service! 3. Michael is a great physical therapist. Extremely knowledgeable and I felt like he understood my condition and how to treat it. He was also very patient in explaining everything to me and doing the treatment - making sure I was comfortable and not in pain the entire time. I didn't feel rushed (as I do at other places), and he does everything himself (vs other places where you start with the experienced person but then they pass you to a new person who doesn't seem to know anything). Even though I was a brand new patient, he took very good care of me and I felt like a VIP. Parking and access are easy. It's faster to enter on Foothill into the surface parking lot, and then enter from the outside (not through the main lobby). I had been going to another place for PT for several years (for a different issue), but now I'm considering coming here instead due to the better customer service, attention, and care.

I recently returned to Gomez Physical Therapy in Pasadena for treatment related to foot pain in my…read moreright foot--discomfort that's been interfering with my ability to train for marathons. This isn't my first time here. A while back, I came in for hip discomfort and IT band pain, and knew exactly who to turn to when this new issue came up. As a Marine Corps veteran, most of my medical care is handled through the VA, but in this case, the podiatrist I saw could only offer custom orthotic inserts. They helped a little, but I knew I needed something more--specifically, a plan to strengthen my foot rather than just mask the symptoms with medication. Fortunately, the VA's Community Care program allows veterans to receive care outside the VA, and Dr. Gomez has been a provider in that program for years--which I'm extremely grateful for. Her clinic is nearby and convenient, and there's something genuinely comforting about the fact that it's a family-run business. Dr. Gomez's husband runs the front office, and her daughter-in-law is one of the assistant PTs. Over the years, I've seen multiple PTAs come through and be mentored by Dr. Gomez--it's clear she cares deeply about her patients and the people she brings onto her team. What I especially appreciate is that Dr. Gomez takes time to explain everything--what's going on, why we're doing a certain stretch or exercise, and what the expected outcome is. Her philosophy is simple and reassuring: avoid surgery if possible, restore function, and help patients get back to doing what they love. The energy in the office is great--everyone's there working on their healing journey. Patients are rotated through treatment stations smoothly, and there's a real sense of community. Also, it's hard not to smile when Fred, the family's chocolate lab, makes his rounds for a visit. Highlights: - Veteran-friendly, participates in VA Community Care - Knowledgeable, hands-on care from Dr. Gomez - Family-run clinic with a warm, personal atmosphere - Fred the chocolate lab is an honorary member of the healing team - Focused on recovery, strength, and avoiding surgery whenever possible

"Well, try not to gain anymore weight."…read more THAT is what the doctor told on me on my first visit. This after the shocked look when she wondered why my GP didn't have me on Ozempic. No, I am not kidding. The place is crammed with equipment and people practically trip over each other to get to their sessions. I watched a massage happen behind a drawn curtain and the poor girl had inches of space to work. Oh, and you'd better love dogs. (which I do) but they rule the space and will take over your session wanting pets and love. Honestly, I did not mind that part but if you are not a dog person, you won't have a choice. Unprofessional as hell. However... After a few sessions to warm up around the holidays, I returned and was told to get on the stationary bike. I said no. I have arthritis in my ankle, knee and a muscle on the side of my leg that keeps me up at night. I was there to strengthen my legs, if possible. But, I was forced onto the thing anyway and encouraged to do five minutes. The pain was A LOT and my knee clicked with every rotation. I was told "But see, you can do it!" Translation: "You're not in pain, you're just fat. If you do the bike, you will lose weight." I was reinjured and didn't sleep for the following week as the pain in my legs kept me up all hours. I have not returned. Clearly, I am too fat for this practice.

What can I say that hasn't already been said about Dr. Loc?…read more In one sentence... He is a living healer. Yes, he's far and yes he's expensive but in ONE visit he fixed my shoulder pain. In the second visit he freed up my ribs from tightness caused by double mastectomy scar tissue. I couldn't breathe properly for years. Two visits. Yes I did weekly physical therapy, weekly massages, acupuncture, Rolfing, sauna, cold plunge, PEMF mat, hyperbaric oxygen, I honestly could keep going but you get the point. If you're considering making the drive and investment do it.

I never find myself writing reviews for anything, but I think I owe it to anyone looking to get out…read moreof pain, perform better in their sport, or just recover from an injury or surgery to share the experience that I, and four others, had after seeing Dr. Locatelli Rao in Pasadena. TLDR: He has been able to help each of us after we all were separately convinced that we had seen "all of the best" PTs/therapists/healers in California, Minnesota and Vancouver. I found him while I was training for an Ironman a couple of years ago. I had experienced a number of injuries while training that were starting to slow me down. Not only did those injuries resolve, but in later appointments with him I was able to fix my chronic shoulder/neck and low back pain that I had been living with for the last 15 years after injuries/surgeries from playing high school football and baseball. I can't put a price on what this has done for my quality of life as someone who values taking care of my health and fitness. Since then I have sent my parents, girlfriend and one of my friends to him and we have all had the same experience. Parents: Dad (ankle) Mom (meniscus) - - both of them are now pain free after they had been living in pain for the past two decades after each of their injuries. One of my best friends experienced a near-death skydiving accident. Broke 4 cervical vertebrae and tore his acetabular labrum (hip labrum) and had seen 12+ specialists to try to get out of pain and regain his mobility he had lost after being in a neck brace for 4 months. He was told that all of those specialists were the best in their fields/techniques but he only saw either marginal improvement (if any) or temporary improvement/relieve with them. After one appointment with Dr. Loc he regained most of the functionality of his left hip and is excited to go back and address his neck pain with Dr. Loc. For the first time in half a decade he is feeling confident that there is actually a path out of pain for him. My girlfriend had low back pain throughout her life as long as she can remember. After a single appointment with Dr. Loc she has not experienced anywhere near the intensity/frequency of pain that she was experiencing prior. Even a day of sitting too long at her desk chair would have her at 6/10 pain and now the worst she experiences is a 1.5-2/10 after heavy lifting/long hikes. (follow him on Instagram and you'll see dozens of case studies and other examples of this happening for other people as well) Put simply: We all call him a wizard and he is the now the first person we are all recommending other people go and see when they're dealing with any sort of pain. It's a long drive for me to go and see him, but I'd make the trip if it were 10x longer.

Dr. Frank Chow, founder & owner of this organization is a man of unusual talents. I begin this…read moresentence with " Dr." because Frank, which he prefers to be called is actually a Doctor of Physical Therapy. He's an easy-going guy that runs a great business. His staff is very professional; his facility is clean and well organized. Suffering Spinal Stenosis I had an Orthopedic Surgeon and a Neurosurgeon tell me that spine surgery would most likely be required. At 78 years old I obviously would prefer not. After Frank released me, I've continued his therapy protocol religiously. My condition is greatly improved & while not being 100% certain that I've dodged surgery I believe there's a greater chance of dodging that bullet than not. I highly recommend Frank and his team. Overall, I hesitantly rate them at 10-only because 11 isn't a recognizable choice !

The team at NeuroSport in South Pasadena is fantastic, we're so glad we discovered them…read more Lacy and the front desk are always on top of scheduling, it's all pretty seamless. Mari, my wife's long term Physical Therapist is awesome. She's patient, caring, knowledgeable, and very friendly & personable. She's also very good at adapting the treatment to the unpredictable changes in wife's condition. It seems like other patients there have their own favorite Therapist, so I assume it's a strong staff all around. Lately there's an assistant / intern, Matthew, who is a great addition. The facility is always clean and calm, with a relaxed, friendly vibe. Great location, right near the freeway and tons of nearby lunch options and parks. The sessions are always one of the highlights of our week. We come across town for this, and are happy to do so. Also, they validate parking, which is always appreciated! A+!!!

I highly recommend NeuroSport Physical Therapy, especially Grant Duncan. From my very first visit,…read moreI knew I was in great hands. Grant is knowledgeable, patient, compassionate, and truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to listen, explains everything clearly, and never makes me feel rushed. What impressed me the most was that he focused on what would be best for my long-term recovery after my upcoming hip replacement surgery. It's rare to find someone who genuinely put his patient's needs first. I also appreciate the hands-on treatment he provides. He spends time working directly on my muscles and mobility instead of relying mostly on machines. Before coming to NeuroSport, I could't fully extend my leg or turn onto my side in bed. Now I can do both without struggling. Everyone at NeuroSport is friendly and professional. If you're looking for a physical therapist who is skilled, honest, and truly cares, I highly recommend Grant Duncan and the entire NeuroSport team. I have been to five or six physical therapy clinics over the years, and NeuroSport stands out. The quality of care and the personal attention they provide are truly exceptional.
