Coming to PT here was a really great decision. I am a few days away from running my first marathon…read moreand I really wouldn't be here without Dr. Elise. A few months ago I decided to try and train for a trail marathon even though I wasn't running very much at the time. I am one of those people who always seems to get injured and so I really expected to wash out of training from some lingering issue, probably a plantar fasciitis flare up or something new. Sure enough a couple months into training I felt a twinge of the old pain in my feet but instead of quitting I decided to come in for a consult - and Dr. Elise was incredible. She helped me get on top of it, stay on top of it, and keep running. Anytime something new popped up (and a lot did!) we battled it right back down and I was able to complete a pretty grueling training block. I have learned so much about how to better support my body in athletic pursuits, and it's knowledge and insight that I'll be able to return to for the rest of my life. I feel confident and prepared not only for my race, but for a lifetime of running. Thanks Dr. Elise!

As an active adult who has undergone extensive physical therapy over the years, I was seeking a…read moreholistic approach that not only addressed my various injuries but also enhanced my strength and mobility. My previous experience with physical therapy was isolated treatments of specific body parts or muscle groups, with programs that did not produce lasting results. I was weary of another regimen of 8-10 weeks of resistance band exercises, which I could easily perform at home with no direction. About 6 months ago, Pro+Kinetix caught my attention on social media, and I decided to explore their programs. Their offerings aligned with my goals, and the combination of physical therapy and strength training piqued my interest. Working with Matteo, I've acquired the knowledge and skills to safely train with weights. We've developed a few comprehensive whole-body routines and iteratively refined exercises when necessary to accommodate lingering injuries and facilitate progress. I've greatly appreciated the flexibility to customize and refine my fitness objectives over time, while also creating personalized routines tailored to my body. Highly recommend!

I booked an appointment with Oliver Mok, a truly gifted physical therapist with a doctorate in PT. Oliver rescued me from a life of disability after 2 car accidents in 2003 that left me with an SI joint dysfunction and a piriformis muscle strain. I couldn't stand or sit for very long and was in agony most of the time. Without medication, I was able to recover to near full capacity because of Oliver's expertise and precision with treatment plans. He was equally thoughtful and gentle with my frozen shoulder so I was able to recover much more quickly than others with the same condition. Overall the Emeryville Sports Therapy staff was friendly and welcoming to me and my service dog. They were efficient and timely with appointments as well. I definitely recommend checking out Emeryvile Sports Therapy if you need PT.

They both gave me strengthening exercises to do at home. The third therapist I saw several times. She pushed her thumb or fingers very hard into my Quads and hamstrings. I complained about how really painful it was. She kept telling me the only way to get those muscles to relax was to apply strong pressure. My appointments were scheduled with her on a weekly basis for about six weeks. I went to the next two but I was beginning to recognize that I did not agree with her treatment. I continued to complain about how much it hurt but she barely reduced the pressure and kept telling me it was necessary. I decided to look up some reliable information which actually agreed with me that muscles react to pain with increased guarding and tension. I also remembered that my Qi Gong teacher often reminded us to go easy - that Qi flows toward relaxation not toward maximum effort. I canceled the rest of my appointments. This PT business does have good therapists and was well recommended to me. It is quite busy however and the first therapist I saw did not have any available other appointments until after my knee surgery was scheduled when I would no longer be able to drive and would be getting in home PT.

Been struggling with chronic pain on my left side--hip, QL, shoulder. Chiropractic has provided…read morerelief, but I needed a way to keep my body in alignment between visits. Then I found Valerie Loo, and wow--she's incredible! Instead of just treating the pain, she finds what's out of alignment and teaches me how to correct it using Counter-shapes tailored to my body's unique movement patterns (quirks really). I don't think I've ever worked with a PT who truly understands how everything is connected. One time, my shoulder was hurting, and she had me do a foot exercise--not touching my shoulder at all-- the pain went away. So wild! What she teaches is like self-massage that actually gets to the knot--not just by pressing on it, but by using movements to retrain my body. Now, the pain stays away for days! And when it sneaks back in, I know exactly what to do to reset and feel good again! Valerie doesn't just "hand me the fish" so to speak--she teaches me how to fish, so I can take care of my body (at home) instead of relying on constant treatments. So grateful for this woman and her work. If you've noticed limits in your movement or want to move better while improving your posture and alignment, this is for you. She calls her method "prehab" (preventative rehab)-- it's a game-changer!

I saw how inflexible my father was as he aged and wanted to avoid the same fate. At first I thought I was just coming to do stretches in a class and I wasn't sure it would stick. But then, I realized I was being taught a modality to move through life, and now I have a whole new appreciation of what Valerie is teaching. Valerie taught me to know what good alignment feels like. Now, I can tune into how my body feels and make adjustments on the fly. I have a new awareness of my spine and how it affects all of my movement. I can turn my head around and see behind me more easily. I stand with more confidence and feel more grounded. It's like my body was craving this... I just needed to listen to it. An unexpected perk of attending class has been the wonderful Loo Movement community! I always enjoy the caring attention Valerie gives in class. Afterwards it feels like I got a massage. The difference is that Valerie taught me to do it myself. This is the best I've felt in my body since I can remember!

This place is a PT mill. I strongly advise that you look into other clinics if you need actual…read morephysical therapy. First off: I was a physical therapy aide for years and I was not qualified to treat patients without a physical therapist present or if they were not within close ear shot. I have worked in and have been treated by many clinics and what they are doing in that place is illegal, and they know it. I recently had a revision hip surgery and since this place was close to my home, I booked an evaluation for 7 days post-op. When I called a week or so before my evaluation, I spoke to the front desk staff to book subsequent appointments as my protocol called for 1-2 times per week. The woman I spoke to told me that my following appointments would be with an aide. I kept asking if I would see the physical therapist before the aide and she kept saying, yes, but only the first appointment, then just with the aide. I honestly thought it was a language barrier issue, and I know how physical therapy is supposed to work, so I just made the appointments. On the day I showed up for my evaluation, the clinic was packed. At least a dozen patients at 7:30am (they opened at 7am), and it seemed very chaotic. Most of the tables had patients on them and they were clearly unsupervised. I just assumed that they had several PTs (or Physical Therapy Assistants; which are very different than aides) on staff, which was NOT the case, as I've come to find out. Twenty minutes into my appointment time, I was taken to a table to wait for the PT. Simon came out of his back office and spent at maximum 1-2 minutes with me. He never checked my incisions, did no physical evaluation of any kind, and after a few unsavory comments, he went back to his office (never saw him again). The aide then attempted to help me get on the bike, but she had no idea what she was doing and I wound up hoisting myself up on the bike, which put me at risk for a fall (fortunately, I did not). She left me there unattended and I had to get someone's attention to get me off after just sitting there for at least 5 minutes after the timer went off. When I got back to the table, the same girl told me she was going to go in back to check out my protocol. She returned and said that she was now going to put me through some exercises. This is when I truly knew that something was REALLY wrong with this place. I asked if she was an aide, assistant, or PT, and she answered she was an aide. I asked her if Simon was going to continue with the evaluation and she said no, and that she was going to do it. She said that this was how they do it and I could feel that even she knew that this was wrong. That's when I told her that this was not okay and I discontinued my session and left. Shortly after I arrived back home, I called them and canceled my appointments. The physical therapists on their website have not worked for them since 2021. Simon has lied on my medical record since the visit and has made a false claim with my insurance company. Luckily, I was able to find another clinic that could see me on short notice and I know that I am getting the real care that I need after surgery.
