ActivBody Physical Therapy - Orange - playing the game I love!!! - Physical Therapy Near Me - Orange, California

red flags:Physical Therapy Board of California laws and regulations state: "Physical therapy aids (PTA) cannot supervise other PTAs or aides." The PTA supervised the aide and the PTA student in his first rotation. The PT was rarely in the facility during my visits. "The PT aide must be supervised by a licensed PT." "PTAstudent is not allowed to perform manual manipulation on patients without direct and immediate supervision of a licensed PT." On 4 occasions the student did manipulations on my arm with no supervision. The PTA was working on other patients. "PTA, aides, and any worker needs to wear a name tag. and title while working ". No name tags were seen and I was under the impression that the PTA was the PT since she said 2 years when I asked how long it took to become a PT.(misunderstanding?) Total of 20 sessions. At session 15 I told the PTA that I felt I had reached a plateau and that I was getting more pain in new areas. I requested to meet with the PT. I met the Pt on the 18th session to discuss my treatment plan going forward. I had an appointment with an orthopedist and asked the Pt to write a report on my therapy. I was totally disappointed with his comments. He implied that progress was minimal due to my Laziness and lack of commitment. He wrote"She only does her home exercises part of the time". I emailed him and objected to his comments. I did most of the .exercises every single day until I spoke to the PTA about pains and possible not recommended exercises for my condition per my research provided by reputable sources. My meeting with the PT convinced me that he did not know me and my situation. In my 20 sessions the therapist PT has NEVER WORKED ON ME OR discussed my situation with me. He was rarely in the facility. My 2 meetings with the PT was session1, the intake.At the session he took only 2 range of motion measurements.He never went over a treatment plan other than to say I would come for 3 sessions a week and progress to 2 a week. The second encounter #18 was when I requested a meeting. I asked him to remeasure the angles taken on my first meeting. He said 5 degrees an 10 degrees improved. Very minimal, and yet, the PTA told me on numerous occasions that I was doing so much better. I just completed a 12 sessions treatment at another facility.NO RED FLAGS. The intake was thorough. I knew exactly the plan and what to expect. A PT manipulated my arm on every visit before aides assisted with exercises. I could hear the PT always going over with the aides as to what he wanted done. read more

ActivBody Physical Therapy - Orange - Physical Therapy Near Me - Orange, California

was referred to them by an attorney. was very disorganized owner told me his receptionist had quit and he doesn't know how to "work" the computer Went there 1st time still disorganized and had me fill out paperwork and then made another appointment! Nope! I was in pain and had to wait another week not interested! I'll use my insurance instead and skill lien physical therapists! read more

This place has been a game changer for me after my back surgery. I tried other local rehab places and they were operate like a factory. The personal attention you get here is top notch. All the employees and owners couldn't possibly be nicer either. Highly recommend. read more

Don't go here. The owner isn't not about his patients. He will end lien patients before they are healed because the money isn't going to be good, cash patients are given the bare minimum and people with good insurance are kept longer then they need to be there. It's all about money!! The only silver lining is the PT Aid Chad Underwood. He's extremely caring and puts his heart into his job. read more

For the longest time we had Kaiser and unfortunately Kaiser only schedules you with a PT 1-2 times a month and only for 30 minutes. I have a lot of pain and knots in my shoulders, back, and knees. I was told that PT wouldn't help my pain and to "strengthen my core and back." My husband and I decided to switch over to PPO in 2019. One of the first things I wanted to do was to go see a physical therapist. I went on yelp and came across ActivBody Physical Therapy and remembered that they are right next door to Nailicious. I called in December and asked to set an appointment in January. Without any difficulty or hesitation they scheduled me in and asked me to call in once I get my new insurance card. I came in after work last week and met with Paul. Paul is amazing! He listened to my complaints and did a thorough assessment, massage, and stretches. I decided to come in 3x a week for a couple weeks and the next time met with Chad. Chad was also amazing! He was helpful and showed me different exercises. He also gave me a printout and asked me to do the exercises daily. So far I have been here 3 times and I really like it here! They make you feel welcomed and I have been feeling better than I have in years! I highly recommend ActivBody to others! read more

Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff! I came here post surgery and it really seems like I'm healing quicker than usual and I contribute some of that success to the staff at ActivBody! They are very accommodating for my schedule, incredibly clean facility with equipment that seems up to date. There is no need to look elsewhere. This place is THE spot for physical therapy! read more

Loved everything about ActivBody! I couldn't have asked for a better support system during my recovery from a torn ACL and meniscus. The staff was always supper supportive and nurturing, ensuring the wellbeing of not just my injuries but my health as a whole. Shoutout to Chad, Lejay, and Derek, couldn't have gotten through this past year without them! read more

My mother went here for a while. She noticed some erroneous billings. She went numerous times to let them know she had not been there for the sessions being billed, and the owner refused to do anything about it. Upon insisting she asked to see the sign-in log or any proof of being there, which they could not come up with. No camera footage, signature on a invoice, nothing. The owner still refused to remove the charges and ultimately threatened to send the bill to collections. I was present the last time my mother went to discuss it, and I can say (i believe) Paul the owner was rude, acted intimidating and refused to take care or even look at the issue, never mind actually noticing that indeed they were billing for something that never occured, and had no evidence of it. Of course he got what he wanted billing the insurance company ;) ... One of the charges was from another location she had never even visited! **** DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS**** read more

I went to ActivBody PT twice weekly for several months. They know their stuff & they care. I saw marked improvement & pain reduction. Everyone is knowledgeable. Scheduling was simple. Other than my initial consult, which was a half hour late starting, they were always on time. I would definitely use them again & recommend them without hesitation. read more

I came to this physical therapy location after seeing an offer advertised on Facebook. I have been having a slight pain in my shoulder that started out of nowhere. I had met with a chiropractor after 2 weeks of constant pain, but they were only focusing on my neck issue, which I have had for a long time & do need adjustments for it, but that is not what I went in for. Sometimes it's hard to figure out what kind of specialist to go to. And after this specific issue not being addressed at the chiropractors, I googled my pains, and it was suggested a visit to a physical therapist. I had never been to a PT before. I had always thought they were only needed after an accident, injury or surgery. But they can treat many pains, discomforts, and problems with limited mobility that may just be caused by everyday life, bad posture, and lack of exercise. Paul was great. He checked my mobility, asked the right questions, and suggested some stretching exercises that should correct my issue. He has dealt with these pains himself & was very knowledgeable on the different muscles that could be causing these pains. He wasn't trying to sell me anything...although he did mention that if my at home exercises don't help, I can come back for treatment. They accept insurance, but if you have a high deductible like me, they'll give you a deal for paying out of pocket. I'm very interested in the deep tissue laser therapy that they offer. It speeds up the healing process, and is pain & drug free. I will be recommending this practice to all my friends & family with on going issues. read more

Great staff with friendly smiles. Came in with bad shoulder problem and Chad and his team fix me up quickly. Definitely recommend them to anyone for therapy read more

This place is clean with lots of equipment. The staff are as good as it gets and they know human body much better than most doctors that I have encounter. They listen to identify the problem and get right to it. You are never alone in this clinic. Thank you Paul and all the staff that help me to get better. read more

I have been going to ActivBody for the last 4 years to fix a on going shoulder injury on both shoulders. I can't say enough about they staff. Everyone is so friendly and wants the best for all customers. They push me to a limit I didn't know I had to help me be pain free. I am a hockey player so for me to stay healthy and get back on the ice is important. I wouldn't be back on the ice if it wasn't for ActivBody! read more

Great place to go. The staff is extremely nice and helpful. They help with any questions I have and encourage me throughout every therapy session. Would definitely recommend. read more

LOVED everyone at ActivBody! I had noticeable improvements after every therapy session. Leejay was my therapist and he is AMAZING! He puts a lot of thought into every patient's treatment plan. He is very thorough, observant, friendly and easy to talk to. The staff are also very flexible and understanding with everyone's busy schedules. Prices were extremely reasonable and I thought every dollar I spent there was absolutely worth it! If you are needing physical therapy, this is absolutely the place to go! I highly highly recommend them! read more

I want to say that I had a great experience at ActivBody. 1st Paul the owner evaluated me and explained what was causing my knee problem. Very very knowledgeable. Then I was assigned to Chad who was also very brilliant . Kevin was the assistant and he was very very good too. I play table tennis at a high level and dance also and was unable to do either until I came to ActivBody. Le-Jay could be a professional trainer and showed me exercises specifically for table tennis. Rachel the secretary is real nice and right on top of things. Not only is everyone working here excellent but very very nice. I was so comfortable . It was an overall great experience. I would highly recommend Actibody. read more

My daughter injured her foot. They were able to fit us in the same day! They physical therapist are extremely caring and you can tell they really want to help. They explained the treatments and what each on did. I would recommend them to everyone. They are the BEST!! read more

This is one of the most positive, feel-good physical therapy locations I have been at. The staff are all positive, friendly, helpful, well trained individuals. They stay up to date with the equipment and therapy styles. My progress has been steady. I am so grateful. They incorporate multiple aspects into the therapy and recovery. I have graduated into the Pilates program. Excellent! Look forward to continuing progress and strengthening. I'm in my 60's and certainly not a "gym rat". read more

I started coming here for neck and shoulder pain twice a week. I have never been to Physical therapy ever but i do have to say that this place is AMAZING! Everyone is so sweet and nice. I love how professional and sweet everyone is. I have seen Erin and Paul and the Aides as well. Linda and Erin. Everyone is so great. They work with you and make sure your comfortable. Every visit i had was very pleasant. Even Francisca at the front desk is excellent. Most places you love but are not to fond of the front desk (with bad attitudes or rude) but she is amazing and so very friendly, i just love her. I thank you all so much at Activbody Physical Therapy. My shoulder and neck feel a lot better! You are all so wonderful. I would highly recommend this place to who needs Physical Therapy :O) read more

Been going here for several weeks now, working on a damaged shoulder. The folks are great. They enjoy their work and are always friendly. It's my first PT experience, but I can definitely recommend this place. read more

Activbody can get you back to tip top shape. My husband went for therapy after a car accident and his back is so much better now. I have seen Paul for my back and foot pain. He gives such great advice and thoroughly checks everything and asks a lot of questions to get to the bottom of your pain. I highly recommend them! Their new Orange location is very spacious and relaxing. read more

Paul and Erin work miracles! It takes a few sessions, but to be fair it took me 3 years to screw up my back this badly! They not only take the time to get to know you, but they take genuine interest in what is working, what is not so much working, and how to get you on the right therapy plan. I highly recommend this facility - from their courteous front office staff to their physical therapists - they believe in excellence. read more

I started coming here three weeks ago for a rotator cuff injury and both Paul and Larry have been great. Being someone who plays sports it is nice to be around staff that also plays sports as well that can come up with a personalized routine. They also take care of people of all ages and injuries. I have seen a dramatic improvement since I began. They are a fun group to be around. The new location in Orange has just opened and it has come together nicely and now has all of the equipment. read more

I would recommend Dr. Charlu to my friends and family, also to anyone that is experiencing physical pain. I had lumbar pain for a long time.I went to Dr. CHARLU .I am pain free and FEELING GREAT Thank You Dr.Charlu read more

I highly recommend ActivBody Physical Therapy. You won't find a more caring and conscientious staff. I had been suffering from lower back pain in my line of work and needed both relief and longer term recommendations on how to prevent the recurrence of the strain. I was impressed by Larry's knowledge, and his careful process for diagnosis. His treatment exercises gave me immediate relief and he patiently guided me through a treatment plan for a less painful future! read more

I just had my fourth visit at ActivBody Physical Therapy in Orange. I am experiencing some progress in getting back to normal, feet/ pinched nerve issues. The staff there is always friendly and helpful and they really care about your needs. I would recommend them to anyone who needs therapy read more

I would have never believed that you could improve as quickly as I have with the help of the ActivBody team. Paul, Jonathan, Francesca, Denise, and Kevin are all fantastic. If you need PT, this is the place to go! read more

When I walked into Active Body PT in Orange, it was a challenging walk. My Doctor sent me after a ten day hospital stay with a minor stroke and PE. After months of gradually intensifying exercises, I am in the best shape since I was in my thirties. Jonathan,Mark, Paul and the rest of the staff helped change me from a sedentary old guy, to an energetic and active grandfather. They improved my quality of life. I believe the changes they helped me make will add many good years. I can't thank them enough. read more

I wanted to say Thank You to both Activbody Physical Therapy offices (HB & Orange). The care for myself (shoulder) and my daughter (knees) has been exceptional. Larry took time to understand the issues and develope a plan of action to heal/strengthen those areas. I've been to a few different physical therapy offices in the last 2 decades. Nothing has come close to this experience. Again, thank you! read more

Activ body is the best physical therapy in town. When I was in pain, they took me in immediately and began treatment. The staff is extremely friendly and is always working alongside with you to make sure you are getting the best treatment possible. Larry in particular is extremely helpful and is very personable, which is important in this profession. I recommend anyone who is in pain or needs physical therapy to try this place out. Coury and Buehler or any other physical therapy around here, doesn't even come close to the type of service you'll receive when you come to Activ Body physical therapy! read more

This is the best physical therapy office I've ever been to. And as a former stunt performer, I've seen my fair share... The office is bright, clean and well-equipped and the staff here is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. I don't feel rushed and I feel so much better after a session at ActivBody. "Woohoo! As as it gets!" sums it up perfectly. I'll be back! read more

Im giving 5 stars toActivbody Physical Therapy in Orange. Not only is the office well set up but the therapy is top notch.
