I have been seeing Becka for reducing pain in my knees. The exercises target different areas, and I am seeing an improvement in strength and balance. Becka explains things clearly, and is very caring. Longevity has great Physical Therapists, and I am very appreciative of Becka and her skills. read more

Very spacious facility, exceptionally good PT's. I have had very good results from the therapy sessions here.

I've been working with Jimmy Vu on and off for the past 2.5 years, and he has been instrumental in helping me stay active and injury-free as I continue to push my body in my 30s. I recently returned to him after completely overtraining while preparing for a marathon, and once again, he has been exactly what I needed. Almost three years ago, I had ACL reconstruction surgery. At first, my goal was simply to get back to sports. But over time, my mindset has shifted. Now, I'm focused on continuing to challenge myself physically, have fun doing it, and better understand how to manage my body both physically and mentally. Jimmy has played a key role in that evolution. His guidance goes far beyond standard rehab. Currently, we're working through some recurring knee pain, and what sets Jimmy apart is how holistically he approaches it. We began by strengthening the knee, then focused on improving hip mobility. Eventually, Jimmy identified that strengthening the arch of my opposite ankle was also key to reducing strain on my surgical knee. That kind of full-body, thoughtful approach is rare and speaks to how deeply he listens and cares. Jimmy is the perfect mix of technical expertise and emotional intelligence. He challenges me when needed, listens to what my body is telling me, and helps me stay focused and motivated. Whether you're recovering from surgery, training hard, or just trying to keep your body moving and healthy, Jimmy Vu is the person you want in your corner. I also genuinely enjoy coming into the Longevity space. It looks and feels like a gym, clean, professional, and energizing. It is the kind of place that makes you want to break a sweat and put in the work. The ownership has created a space that supports both rehab and high-level performance. I also want to give a shout-out to Joanna at the front desk. She is always so friendly and welcoming, and her leadership in creating a smooth front office experience does not go unnoticed. From the moment you walk in, you feel like you are in good hands. On top of that, I really appreciate the investments Longevity has made in technology. The automated email reminders and text confirmations make it easy to stay on top of appointments, which is incredibly helpful in today's fast-paced world. Even though my Monday and Friday 7 a.m. slot has been consistent for a long time, the reminders help keep me accountable and informed. I wish more medical practices adopted this kind of patient-centered approach. Thanks for thinking of the patient. read more

I'm shocked that I haven't review Longevity before now. It has been my preferred physical therapy spot since I moved to San Diego over a decade ago. Let me start by saying that I have a lot of physical therapy experience... A LOT. I've had 14 orthopedic surgeries, and countless sprains, strains. I have been to Longevity specifically for 2 knee surgeries, 2 shoulder surgeries, 2 back injuries, multiple calf strains, and a few other I cannot think of at the moment. Most recently, I saw Jimmy for a shoulder impingement issue. When I went in, I was unable to raise my arm to grab glasses out of the cupboard. Over the course of a few months, Jimmy was able to get me to the point where I was not only having issue with every day activities, but I have returned to my normal active lifestyle: weightlifting, distance swimming, wingsuiting (this puts a lot of strain on my shoulder). Jimmy did a great job of limiting my activities so that I could heal while allowing me to not go crazy by being overly limited. He changed my lifting form which allowed me sufficient space in my shoulder so that it stopped impinging and started healing. I cannot recommend Longevity Physical Therapy enough. Unfortunately, I know it won't be too long before I'm back for another ailment, but at least I know I have a reliable PT option. read more

Amazing staff. Jimmy was my PT for the last 3 months, directly after ACL surgery. He went above and beyond to give me quality care and make sure my sessions were always fun! He's a great people person and knows how to relate with others. He always made the most of my sessions, making sure I had optimal strength training and ensuring my legs to be shaking by the end of my exercises. Aside from this, he would also allow me to come in early at times and warm up on the bike! This clinic is well equipped and has some of the best modalities and therapeutic treatments such as Normatec, Alter-G treadmill, and a Game Ready. This is the place to come if you are looking to return to an active lifestyle! read more

I highly recommend Longevity. My physical therapist, Jimmy, is fantastic. He has been helping me regain mobility, balance, and flexibility and in one month of training my pain went from excruciating to barely any at all! read more

Jimmy and Alexa are the best! I didn't go to the gym for 2 months since I would feel a sharp shooting pain in my neck / trap area every time I worked out. I tried everything (chiropractor, medication from the doctor, and Youtube stretching videos), but nothing seemed to work. Finally my doctor recommended trying out physical therapy. WISH I STARTED WITH THIS! After just 2 sessions, I was feeling way better. By the end, I was going back to the gym and feeling 100% back to normal health. Thank you Jimmy and Alexa for fixing me and helping me get back to my fitness goals! read more

I love this place! Exterior: easy to find, ample parking, quiet street, centrally located Interior: clean, open, well-lit, up-to-date equipment Bonus: private room, therapists will mask The staff is friendly and informative. It feels like a family. Jimmy is my therapist. He is dynamic, friendly, and accommodating. Very skilled and patient. He has taught me numerous techniques to manage my pain and build my strength at home. The exercises are both challenging and healing. Jimmy makes sure I understand what he is teaching me and prints out visual guides as needed. I never feel rushed or inconvenient. I absolutely love working with Jimmy and would recommend him and Longevity to anyone in need of physical therapy (to be honest, I think most people would benefit from pt!). read more

As a competitive athlete, it's refreshing to work with a PT that not only respects what you do, but supports you in wanting to get back to 100% healthy and doing whatever sport or activity you love. That is Dr. Andrew. I worked with him for a few years while rehabbing a pretty significant back injury that also effected my nerves. He did more than just get me back to my old self -- he served as a sounding board for me on my recovery journey as well as a friend that was there to listen to my anger and frustrations when things weren't progressing as I hoped. It was apparent how much he truly cared about helping me recover and getting me back to my sport -- I have never worked with another PT who was more "in my corner" than Dr. Andrew. He's extremely smart, professional and an absolute pleasure to work with; I can't recommend him enough!! read more

I just had my knee replaced. this is my second knee and second time using longevity for my PT and rehab. I came back to longevity purly to rehab with Jimmy, there best Physical Therapist in my opinion. Jimmys approach to rehabbing my knee is a clear understanding of my pain level as well as my muscle strength and what is hampering my recovery. the pace is set by me but Jimmy knows when and how to pick the pace up for a speedy recovery. His understanding of how to relieve stress and pain on the muscles and tendons and joint is superior. strength training is key for Jimmy as well. Jimmy , thank you for all your help John Leavy read more

Highly trained and skilled Physical Therapists. Have helped tremendously with back and shoulder injuries. Jimmy is an excellent PT and with his help I am recovering well. Excellent billing and scheduling support as well. read more

Jimmy is the best!!! Not only is he professional, knowledgeable, and amazing at what he does but i feel his intuition is spot on. I was very apprehensive about physical therapy (I have not had great results in the past.) Jimmy has helped me regain trust in my body's ability to get stronger and I feel we are making big improvements in my areas of concern (lumbar spine and hips.) He has a deliberate plan of action and when needed he is always able to come up with alternate ways to get to desired goal. I am ever thankful that I found him. As far as Longevity PT goes, the staff is friendly, there is plenty of parking, the interior is clean and spacious and never feels too crowded. Best Physical Therapy experience! read more

Longevity Physical Therapy has multiple water options. Want a room temperature water to go? You've got it! Want a small shot-sized cup of cold water? They've got that too! Refills are unlimited and the physical therapist offered me multiple cups of water during our session. He even refilled it for me! The small bottles of water are available near the front for easy access as you enter or leave. Overall, I had a wonderful water experience! read more

See all

I just finished a ten week Physical Therapy program with Alyssa. I have had debilitating pain in my lower back for years. It is now almost gone. Because I am in my 80's Alyssa started me on simple, gentle movements and slowly worked me up to a more intense set of exercises that I will be able to continue on my own for years to come. I am extremely glad that I sought out PT, and glad I found Longevity. Thank you Alyssa. read more

Physical therapists at Longevity are highly trained and recommended by many doctors. My PT Alexa is working to strengthen my back and legs and is doing a great job! This is the best group of Physical Therapists I've ever been to. read more

I am loving the fitness class at the San Diego Longevity location! The class is great because CJ, the instructor, is encouraging and knowledgeable. He adapts each exercise to the skill level of each participant. Every class has been fun, while challenging me to improve. The best part is how it always improves my mood, and I leave feeling a real sense of accomplishment. Thanks Longevity and CJ! read more

When I started here, I was new to physical therapy, despite being active all my life. I came in with an old knee injury and worked with Dr Nick. I cannot say enough good things about Nick and all the people at Longevity. Nick goes above and beyond to provide me the most personalized movements for my body and goals. He treats his patients like they are the only ones in the room, and that is so lovely and rare to find in the industry. The entire staff at Longevity always make me feel so welcome from the moment I walk in the door. Their inclusivity, respect, and patience is remarkable and is what all people-oriented company's' should strive towards. 100% Recommend read more

My dad has been going to Longevity for the last couple months and is receiving excellent, caring assistance. His therapist, Alexa, is attentive and so careful with him. He has made good progress and is cheered and encouraged every step of the way. I know he will continue to improve. Highly recommend. read more

I have been working with Jimmy for almost a year. I have multiple sclerosis and was born with cerebral palsy. Jimmy has been great at adjusting to my day-to-day needs, including yesterday when the facility was warmer, and my body became numb and tingly, and I told him I was nauseous. He took the initiative to go tell the administrators and they immediately turn down the AC and he adjusted to my needs for the day. Usually people ask me questions before doing something to help me, but Jimmy always takes my day today abilities as a priority so my therapy plan adjust week to week, which I appreciate read more

I am writing this review on behalf of my wife JoAnna. She started going to Longevity last year (2022) for issues she was experiencing with Vertigo. That is when she me Dr. Nick Van Hoorn from Longevity. From the start she enjoyed the one on one time unlike what both she and I had experience from other physical therapy facilities. Basically, the therapist showed you some exercises and you were on your own from there. Definitely NOT the process at Longevity. Nick is very professional, personable and explains everything in detail. Always asks if she has any questions or concerns. In January 2023 JoAnna had a full knee replacement done. She had discussed with Nick and asked if he would be her physical therapist after the surgery. He was glad to take this on. It has been a long process but if not for Nick, she wouldn't have made the progress that she has thus far. He challenges her and ensures that everything that she does is done safely. I have attended each session and it is amazing how strong she has become since starting. She can not say enough good things about him. The Longevity Staff makes us both feel like we are a part of the family. They are the best! read more

I started my journey about 6 months ago and it has been nothing short of fantastic working with Jimmy Vu!! I could write a long book about my experience with this team in the San Diego location and I may come back to write more, but in the meantime if you are looking for a PT location look no further, THIS IS IT! Everyone has a positive attitude, encouraging and work well as a team. I epically LOVE Floral Print Fridays and the music selection Jimmy provides to keep me motivated and pushing towards my goals. Thank you Casey for pairing me up with Jimmy read more

Went to this place after a pretty bad knee injury.Blessed to have been referred here this place is a hidden gem.Friendly front staff and my pt Alexa was amazing she is very knowledgeable and got me back to walking again.Despite my insurance not being accepted here I was still coming here and paying out of pocket because the ultimate investment is yourself.This place has plenty of equipment and knowledgeable dpts read more

I sprained and fractured my ankle in January and as my first real injury I was scared that I wouldn't be able to do my favorite things again; hiking, biking, dancing, use a step stool, etc. Since my first appointment with Alyssa, I felt safe and encouraged to get better. She acted in a holistic way, helped me identify my goals and she pushed me out of my comfort zone in order to walk tall. They are open later in the day after work hours which I loved. Longevity was a 5-minute drive from SDSU, very convenient and quiet location, easy to find with the flags. read more

I have been in PT over the years after surgeries etc and I have recently been in PT with Casey for my balance. After 6 weeks I have had tremendous success. I am 74 years old and found LONGEVITY PT to be the best experience I have had in PT. They have an efficient staff and clean and well appointed facility. I highly recommend them! read more

Real pros here. Jimmy is great and really helped me solve a very tricky PSOAS/hip flexor problem with very active PT. Now I'm getting back to my normal workouts in. I would highly recommend him especially if your injury connects in some way with weight lifting like mine. read more

A little over a year ago I had multiple issues with my back when Dr. Housig recommended your establishment in Carlsbad. I could walk only short distances and even had difficulty reaching soap dispenser from the kitchen counter top. I've been treated by Casey, Rachel and Eric who worked with me twice a week. They listened to my concerns, asked questions and gradually helped me get to the point where I am today. They are truly professionals and caring people. Today I am able to walk 2-3 miles daily and can lift 15lb weights. Just wanted to let you know that you should be proud of the professionals you employed. Respectfully, Lilly Pantovich read more

Had my last visit with Jimmy Vu. Just wanted to thank him and everyone at Longevity l. He diligently worked with me post torn rotator and bicep tear . Back to tennis and normal activities..thanks, Jimmy!! read more

Horrible experience with their billing department. I was referred by my doctor, so when I called to make my first appointment I asked them to run my insurance to make sure I was covered. They said it would be $150 for my first appointment (with insurance) - sounded expensive, but proceeded with the appointment. My first appointment was early/mid March, so I wasn't able to go back due to COVID. I got the statement from my insurance that said that I overpaid. When I contact Longevity, they said that I had to call their 3rd party billing company, Momentum. When I requested a refund, they said that they were rebilling my insurance and that the original request was wrong. Per Momentum, I was owed $132 credit. I called back a month later to check on the status and then they said it would be a $62 credit. Now they are saying that it's only $32. When I called my insurance, they said that they kept changing the billing codes - seems like they kept trying until they could keep the largest amount of money. It's late September and I'm still waiting for my refund. Save your time and your money and go somewhere else. read more

I can't say enough positive things about Longevity PT in Mission Valley. If you're looking for comprehensive and effective therapy I suggest you check them out. I am working with Jimmy who I feel is excellent in PT methods. He is helping strengthen my weakened vestibular nerve causing me dizziness and balance problems. His patient approach is a nice mixture of encouragement, constant one on one therapy and paying close attention my to my progress. I deeply appreciate this opportunity, feel I am progressing nicely and highly recommend. read more

I came here to get better and it happened! So many people to thank. Incredibly friendly staff from the front desk the Physical Therapists and Physical Therapists assistants. Great equipment, nice vibe. read more

Andrew and the team have been such a miracle and I am so thankful for them helping me through my journey to recovery. I have had this foot injury for almost 3 years. Because this injury has went on for so long my back was affected as well. Since my injury I have seen a handful of physical therapists. The results were not very good and for the most part, I always left with not much progress. For so long I lost hope. Until I started coming to Longevity Physical Therapy and met Andrew. From the beginning, Andrew listened to what hurt me and what I was capable of doing and what I couldn't do. From there, we set a goal on what we were going to work on. In the last few months with Andrew I am able to do things that I could not even imagine that I will be able to do. Since then, I have been able to manage my back pain that occurs and do exercises that I was never even capable of doing a few months prior. What I also noticed is that Andrew was teaching me exercises that have never been shown to me by any other place! I may not be one hundred percent back to my normal self; however, I am able to do so much more and my foot tolerance for certain activity has increased. I am so thankful for the whole team that has worked with me through my recovery. I know with time and consistency things will begin to look up for me. Thank you for all your support!!! read more

After eight months of twice weekly hard labor at the hands of Brett Bloom and his Merry Band of Physical Therapists and Incredible Aides, I am about to be released to continue my recovery on my own. I don't want to go! I will miss the joyful atmosphere at Longevity Physical Therapy to which each therapist contributes while working his or her patient into a frenzy of squats, lunges, punches, balances, hops, leaps, and the occasional high-five of successful accomplishment of a particularly difficult maneuver. Brett & Company have established the most positive and uplifting atmostphere imagineable while doing the thing I least like to do -- exercise for the sake of exercise. But I will continue to do it, now that I have been properly educated into completely Rethinking Physical Therapy: it isn't the exercise, it's the way of life. I will miss every single person at Longevity Physical Therapy, a place that is filled with people who truly care about a patient's progress and improvement. Day after day, week after week, each therapist guides, cajoles, inspires, pushes, wheedles, coaxes, and charms a patient into giving his or her all to the effort that must be expended to heal thyself. Most of all, I will miss Brett's spot-on encouragement. Thank you, Brett, & thank you, all of you, at Longevity Physical Therapy. read more

After experiencing hip pain for a month and trying many things on my own without any improvement I decided to call Longevity. I had gone to Longevity 5 years ago and had a great experience. Upon calling for an appointment the receptionist called my insurance company to see about coverage. I really appreciated this service. I worked with Joe and a couple of student interns and they were great! After one session working on my hip I felt improvement right away. I kept with the recommended exercises and haven't had issue again. They also helped me with a should strain, diagnosing my issue and recommending exercises to strengthen my shoulder. I would definitely come back and my issues have been resolved. read more

Joe is extremely knowledgeable and has done an outstanding job of getting me back in competition after patellar tendon surgery. I was so impressed with his preparation for each session and his ability to customize my sessions that now my wife is getting PT with him for her hip issues. Ask for Joe if you want one of the best in San Diego. read more

Hands-down best physical therapy I've ever been to. I've grown up around sports and have had many physical therapist through my athletic career. I can honestly say this is the first place that has ever helped my back injury. They took time to evaluate and bring my strength up! I'd highly recommend this place to anyone who is injured and looking to have an active lifestyle after PT. read more

Go see Andrew Pavlov if you can- he's the best! I truly felt supported and taken care of. Great experience!

I had both my knees replaced in July and am certain that Longevity's attentive and aggressive therapists helped speed my recovery. I highly recommend PT before surgery as well as after. You can read more about my experience here: https://medium.com/@susanwaltzwhite_48980/my-two-new-knees-and-how-i-got-them-9b1b88ba2cc read more

I can't say enough about Longevity Physical Therapy. Prior to total right knee replacement, in May 2013, I worked with Brett Bloom to strengthen my muscles. Surgery went well as I was in my best shape ever. I continued after surgery with positive results. In October 2013, I had right hip replacement and followed the same before and after physical therapy. Fast forward to September 2020. I had spinal fusion L2-S2, with major complications. As soon as in home physical therapy ended, I went back to Longevity and I'm doing great!!! I no longer need any assisted mobility devices, though I do take my cane (Cleo) if I'm walking in unfamiliar areas. I'm pretty much pain free and I have my mobility back. Casey and everyone at the Mission Valley location have been outstanding. The facility is immaculate and everyone from the front desk, trainers and students are outstanding. I highly recommend Longevity Physical Therapy!!! FYI I'm 78 years old. read more

My testimony with Longevity Physical Therapy is one that sounds like many of the other positive reviews here. As a patient, Longevity became more than a place of healing, but an enjoyable routine and a positive atmosphere of friends. That's why when I was discharged, I decided to stick around. I volunteered in the clinic to continue seeing friendly faces and learn more about the body and it's functions. I was then hired on as an aide, and I enjoy every day I come to work. The atmosphere is positive, the staff build relationships with their patients, and I love making our patients feel better. A bit more about my treatment... I came to Longevity with an injury called slipping rib syndrome that initially occurred 4 years prior to finding Longevity. After previous attempts with different kinds of therapy (massage, chiropractic, PT) I felt hopeless of the idea of a full recovery. Ali was my assigned PT, and I cannot say enough good things about her. She changed how I view my movement and how our bodies are kinetic chains. Not only have I fully-recovered, but I am better equipped to prevent injury and am more in-tune with my body. Ali is a very enjoyable person to be around; she is funny, friendly and understanding. I spent just under a year at Longevity with a 2 month travel break. PT with Longevity does not mean stopping your hobbies to get better; but rather function is the basis of their treatment and is a necessary part of recovery. During my treatment I found I felt best when being active, and when I wasn't doing my usual exercise routine I had more pain. I love the Longevity approach to applied functional science, because it works! Longevity is the physical therapy clinic for you if you want to: Recover and/or improve life quality after illness/injury Obtain greatest functionality for your body Enjoy your time with funny and kind PT's and PT aides Utilize a wide range of equipment Receive the best customer service read more
