This felt like visiting friends while getting stronger. They helped relieve pain that I had had for almost decade and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you!! -Kara read more

These guys are great, they focus on your main problem but they also pay attention to the rest of your body that might also affect your issue. They are always on schedule but never rushed me. I recommend very much read more

WOW! Great service and very nice and professional people working! Farshid and Nicole always help me and respond to any questions! They are highly knowledgeable, dedicated, and genuinely warm. You feel like you're in good hands from the moment you walk in. Thank you to this caring, talented and professional team! I can't recommend them highly enough! read more

Ocean Physical Therapy is a truly outstanding and easily accessible facility in Pacific Beach. Farshid and staff were extremely helpful in aiding my recovery from back fusion surgery that went bad. From learning how to walk again to strengthening my muscles, and to regaining confidence, the staff and treatments were excellent. I would recommend this PT facility to anyone on need of physical therapy. Farshid and Nicole are quite helpful and extremely courteous professionals. read more

I'm at 80-year-old beat up ex jock who decided the only way to keep functioning was to get a complete left shoulder replacement. Great, successful procedure with surgeon, Dr. Chris Behr. As I came to find out, shoulder surgery is one of the toughest rehabs you have to go through and I've had a number of surgeries, knees, ankle, etc. from sports injuries. This was the worst! Without a doubt, my very complete and timely recovery was 100% attributable to the care and direction that I received from Farshid and Ocean Physical Therapy. I consider them the very best in San Diego and the only way to go! Good luck and all the best in your care! PS-Nicole will keep you on schedule too with a smile! read more

Wonderful Physical Therapy experience! They are a small clinic, and as such, much more personal and customized care than I've received in large clinics. They always listen to you and want to hear how you're doing. Nicole is amazing - so positive and helpful and caring. She ensures that your treatments are done well and efficiently. She also takes care of ensuring that appt scheduling and insurance payments all get taken care of without any issues. Farshid is compassionate, very experienced and highly competent. I was feeling better after the first day, and it continued improving until resolved. And I'm still pain free a couple months later. I highly recommend this clinic! Will definitely go back if/when the next joint(s) start hurting! read more

This review for Ocean Physical Therapy is long overdue. In late March 2022 I underwent Total Shoulder Replacement surgery at Scripps Green Hospital. A post-surgical course of Physical Therapy was required, but my orthopedic surgeon did not recommend a specific therapy office, which was just fine with me. I was searching for a Physical Therapist who had experience with shoulder issues, who was in my medical insurance network, whose office was located nearby - and of course, excellent Yelp ratings from prior patients. Two Physical Therapy offices met my requirements; a larger office with several therapists, and Ocean Physical Therapy, where the owner, Farshid, is the Physical Therapist. I preferred the idea of having the same therapist at each session, and so I chose Ocean Physical Therapy. I made the right choice. Farshid is really dedicated to his work and takes great pride in planning and customizing the best possible therapy for his patients. Even when my progress was slow, he did not give up on me! The stretching and massage on my shoulder was very helpful, as well as the heat and ice treatments at the end of each session. Nicole provided caring support and made sure I was doing my gym exercises properly, making adjustments as needed. You might ask: Would you use Ocean Physical Therapy again if needed? My answer: Yes! In fact, I am going to get my other shoulder replaced in mid-December, so they will be hearing from me very soon! read more

Farshid and his staff are absolutely the best!! Office super efficient with paperwork and insurance coverage. PT care has always been a positive experience and that's because they take time talking with you to truly understand your injury and recommend the right treatment. I've been treated by Ocean PT for a few injuries and the latest was a shoulder that was bugging me for months, and is now pain free. read more

It was such a pleasure getting to know Farshid and Nicole. They are the definition of teamwork and are on your team starting day one. Not to mention they're extremely personable and have worked so hard for this business. They dedicate so much time and effort towards the recovery and wellbeing of their clients. Keeping it simple, they keep you comfortable, and want nothing but the best for their clients. I never thought PT could be such a pleasant time. Thank you Ocean PT!! read more

Great experience at Ocean PT. Farshid was the first physical therapist (out of the 4 I've been to over the past 10 years) to actually address the underlying cause of my chronic injury...and fix it! Nicole is so attentive and detail oriented. Top notch quality of care in a very efficient office. Truly a pleasure to be under the care of the staff at Ocean PT. read more

I fractured my left shoulder at work, and because of workers comp, I was sent to another place for PT. After 8 sessions with the other place, I had not gained much mobility. My orthopedist approved 8 more sessions, this time with Ocean Physical Therapy. Not only is it close to my house (added bonus), in just 5 (out 8) sessions, I have already so much more range of motion, it's almost hard to believe. Farshid always takes the time to stretch and massage my arm/shoulder at the beginning of our session, and now I actually look forward to PT. Highly recommend. read more

I am very happy & pleased to have found Farshid, Nicole & Karen. I've had a chronic 11 yr lumbar disc tear/fissure situation with lateral recess stenosis. I needed a PT who cares & will be gentle, observant & intuitive & will help me one on one. Ocean PT is a great match for me! I truly feel like this is the functional rehab I've needed for so long. Today was my second session & I already feel like my brain & body are reconnecting. I've had 11 Years of neuromuscular imbalances, guarding & left side compensation which seem to be responding positively so far. I actually felt a few glute muscles engage & that's a huge positive sign to me! Farshid is amazing. He's gentle & does a combination of manual therapy & exercises & gives us detailed instructions with printouts for home exercises. He checks in with us during the tx session & exercises & immediately at the beginning of the session to see if any pain or changes occurred since the last visit. He's very thorough & individualizes our program & has a thorough awareness of muscles, nerves & function. I'm excited to see how far I can heal & I look fwd to gaining more mobility, strength & functional movement with them. Nicole is sweet & caring & Karen was very kind & reassuring when I called initially to ask about their office & Treatment methods. MichanMichanM read more

Ocean Physical Therapy provides expert help to bring you back to health. Farshid is a wise and good man who has built a practice that values personalized care and efficient methods to get you back in action as soon as possible. Warmly recommended. read more

I've been to many Physical Therapists over many years for a variety of different ailments......as prescribed by doctors. Ocean PT was the best of all of them! I thanked my SD doctor for recommending Ocean after completing a 5 week session for my knee issues. This business is both caring and organized to put together a program that progressively took steps customized for my particular issues, and to measure the results as it progressed throughout the sessions. At the end I gone from a satisfaction rating of 3 to 9 (out of 10.) Farshid is a true professional and dedicated therapist. He is "hands on" for identifying the source of the aliment, and then progressively and safely orchestrating a plan to achieve the results we desired. He and Nicole provide a comfortable, personable, and well structured operation for a busy smaller business. You won't be disappointed! read more

I found this place thru yelp and my Home Physical Therapist. If you want treatment by a therapist who remembers you each visit and one who performs stretching and adjustments before treatment, this is the place to go. It is a small office but you receive excellent care. I had the choice of this facility or one at UCSD LaJolla and I am very happy that I choose Ocean PT. You feel at home. You receive treatment from the same therapist each visit who has been in the business for 20+ years. I would return if I had another muscular or joint injury. read more

I found Farshid at Ocean Physical Therapy to help with non surgical repair for bicep tendinitis. He explained his "no pain" approach to healing and gently yet throughly accessed my injury before recommending a treatment plan. I felt extremely relaxed, safe and confident as he skillfully moved, massaged and stretched the joint before exercising the muscles. While exercising, either Farshid or his assistants monitored my workout to assure I had the correct alignment and was using the proper muscles. In each and every step I felt protected and safe. I highly recommend this PT practice. read more

Farshid and Nicole are absolutely some of the nicest people I have ever seen in the medical field. They were super professional and knowledgable, while being very down to earth and fun as well! I was tempted to keep going PT even though I was fully rehabbed! I cannot recommend Ocean Physical Therapy enough! read more

My experience with Ocean Physical Therapy was excellent. Farshid is very thorough, caring, professional and patient with me. I'm so glad I went there. I'd 10 sessions (twice a week for 5 weeks) Nicole always called to remind of my appointments and Karen very good working with me on my exercise's. Everything was clean and a very friendly staff, this was a great referral from my doctor. I highly recommend Ocean Physical Therapy, you won't be sorry. I started with pain level of 5 and upon completion I was a 0. I'll always be grateful for the success of my sessions at Ocean Physical Therapy. Thank You, Rob read more

I've been to Ocean PT for various back and ankle injuries and highly recommend them. I wouldn't be back to my activities without them. The place is well run. Nicole and Farshid were both extremely helpful and kind to me. Very well run. A great place! read more

I was referred to Ocean Physical Therapy by my doctor after getting a back injury. I was kind of weary about going to PT but I thought I would give it a try, and I am so glad I did! From my first session to my last one, my pain went down from a 9/10 to about a 3/10. I was amazed at how much better I had gotten! My favorite part was the electrode therapy and the heating pads that they would put on my back at the end of my sessions. Farshid, Nicole, and Karen were all amazing and helped me feel so much better. I will recommend this place to anyone who ever needs a PT! read more

I would recommend Farshid and Ocean Physical Therapy without hesitation. Tried another physical therapy provider before Ocean PT, and was blown away when I made the switch. The team are passionate about their work and really and truly care for your recovery. Clean and organized interactions in scheduling and insurance verifications also a huge plus. I will refer all of my friends and family here, should they need treatment. read more

Farshid is excellent. He takes the time to figure out what is going on with your body and develop a plan to make you better. His staff is also very knowledgeable. They care about you and go out of their way to ensure you are getting better. I saw Farshid several years ago. During his initial examination he identified another issue with my back. He recommended that I should seek consultation on it. His diagnosis was spot-on. I asked to see him when that problem flared up and he has improved my back. This is how professional and knowledgeable Farshid and his staff is. If I have issues requiring PT, I ask for Ocean's Physical Therapy. So should you! read more

I wanted to take a moment to thank the crew at Ocean PT for helping me with my back. I came by in December complaining of a re-injured back issue causing localized lumbar pain and sciatica down one side. The first steps Farshid helped with involved finding ways to simply get out of pain, as I did not have any comfortable positions to sit or stand in. Once I was able to reduce the pain for a bit, we began to address hip and midline stability over the next several sessions. Ultimately, we brought me back to where I was before re-injury. I am currently able to remain active in my athletics and pursue competition. Thank you!! read more

After my second knee replacement, I started with in-home, then needed a bit more afterwards. Ocean Physical Therapy was near by and in my network. Scheduling was both easy and flexible. The one on one care is great. I have one remaining joint and if the time comes it needs replacement, I will definitely return to Ocean Physical Therapy! Thank you read more

I've had to deal with lower back pain for some time as a result of a military related injury. Not only is Ocean Physical Therapy part of the Veterans Choice program, but Dr. Farajzadeh is an extremely friendly and caring therapist. Karen and Nicole made me feel right at home. The initial evaluation was thorough and I really felt like my story was important to them, which made my treatment feel very personal and focused. I would certainly recommend Ocean Physical therapy to area Veterans and many of my friends and colleagues. Any future therapy needs will be met here. read more

I've been going to ocean physical therapy for some alignment issues with my lower back. The group there is terrific and I recommend them. Farshid is thorough and uses a gentle approach in adjusting, so we don't do too much too soon. He does a complete evaluation at the beginning and reviews some stretching exercises I should do. He's very nice and answers all my questions. I trust his insight and advice. Nicole and Bryce are friendly and great in helping with the exercises in the gym area, appropriately correcting my form when needed. I appreciate the whole group there and always begin to feel better even after just the first appt. and continue with appts until my issue is resolved. read more

Farshid has helped a lot. I had a very serious knee injury (from soccer) in September. Several weeks after my first surgery for it, I was not recovering very fast. I then went to Farshid and he immediately told me that I wasn't using my crutches properly. He helped me re-learn to walk correctly (with crutches). By the NEXT DAY I was (slowly and carefully) able to walk even without crutches! That was awesome. What an emotional boost. Then, doing Farshid's recommended exercises, I was able to notice significant improvements to my leg every single day of that first week. I loved that feeling of progress. I then had my second surgery (as planned, since it was such a severe injury) and am now in the longer portion of my recovery, which will take many months. I'm glad I have Farshid's help! read more

Ocean Physical Therapy - Farshid - Physical Therapy Near Me - San Diego, California

The receptionist is very friendly. It's definitely a small business, but they do try their best. I should mention that they have odd hours since the PT is away for part of the day passing out flyers, trying to stir up new business and whatnot. (This is what I was told.) Anyhow, he tried his best with me, but he could not figure out why my muscle injury was still bothering me after PT. It was a mystery to him. That being said, I can't give them more than 4 stars since they were unable to completely help me . I would suggest going there to check the place out first or give them a call. read more

What a find! I found myself needing physical therapy for a recurring strained iliopsoas muscle and shin splints. I have to say that after several rounds of failed physical therapy with other therapists in the past I had my doubts that physical therapy would work. Let me just say that I was happily proven wrong! Farshid and Karen are miracle workers! After a series of just 7 visits my muscle pain and shin splints are GONE! I was given a list of exercises to do at home along with an explanation of what muscle groups these exercises were strenghening and why they would/should work. I genuinely appreciated that extra step. Everyone was a pleasure to work with...I actually looked forward to going to physical therapy every week! And I valued the one on one care I was given. With other therapists I often felt like a minion in a long assembly line of patients with no personal attention or care. At Ocean Physical Therapy, I was walked through every office exercise each and every time to ensure I was doing each move with correct form and posture. How refreshing! I highly recommend this group for any type of physical therapy needs you may require. They are a top-notch professional group with a genuine, sincere desire to help you heal and stay healed! read more

I had a great experience and great results with Ocean Physical Therapy. Farshid is very caring and a thorough. He worked very hard on my muscles, explained along the way and gave me suggestions and tips. Each visit Karen, his assistant, helped me with every exercise. Nicole kept the operation running by reminding me of my appointments. I also want to mention that wait time was less than 2 minutes. The three people at Ocean Physical Therapy run a 'tight ship!" It was well worth my trip from Escondido to Mission Valley to get my issue resolved by these competent people. When people work very hard for you it makes you want to work hard and diligent on your home exercises. I highly recommend Ocean Physical Therapy for anyone who wants to feel better. read more

I have been to a number of P.T. locations over the past few years. Now that I'm retired, I have to pay the price for too many years of a sedentary existence. I was absolutely amazed that a physical therapist (PT) could do so much, in so little time. Nor did I ever imagine that a PT could be so versatile, or provide the tools for me to address my years of sitting behind a desk. I called OPT to ask them if I could let others know about their work. This is my first ever Yelp (or any other business) review. Bill S. (aka Up Tight :-) read more

This past April I had my 4th shoulder surgery....geez, you would think I would stop surfing after that many surgeries. Since stopping surfing was not an option I knew I had to find the best physical therapist. I am so happy that my Doctor, Doctor Tal David, recommended Ocean PT. Farshid did an amazing job of getting me from not being able to move my shoulder to being back in the water within 2 months (don't tell my doctor I already went out...I am supposed to wait 3 months!). Farshid is so professional, knowledgable and caring. It was very one-on-one each time I was there. His assistant, Karen, is amazing also! She will crack you up and brighten your day. I can't say enough about this place, they truly are amazing :) read more

I can't say enough great things about my friends over at Ocean Physical therapy. As tough as my injury and recovery was, they made it a great experience. A little over a year ago when I was planning my move to California to play volleyball and enjoy the active lifestyle, I didn't think it would involve physical therapy. It was just a few weeks before I left Boston that I tore my ACL playing basketball, and you can imagine that I felt pretty crushed. I opted to wait until I arrived in CA before I had surgery, rather than push my plans of moving until after surgery, or even after rehab. As soon as I got settled here I started researching knee surgeons and physical therapists. I ended up picking Ocean PT based on a recommendation from my surgeon, Dr. David Tal. PT went very smoothly, and we took my recovery at a steady pace as they recommended. When they said I was ready to do more, I did, and little by little I was getting back to my old routine and then some. I've been playing competitive volleyball for the last 6 months, and at 33 I am probably in the best shape of my life, partially because the injury made me start over slow and train properly. Thank you guys at Ocean PT. I really appreciate your hard work and your friendship. read more

Farshid & his staff were a pleasure to work with and really helped me with my knee injury. I am back to running & living life without pain & I owe it to them. read more

I ended up in physical therapy with Farshid because my neck and shoulders were strained and not getting any better. Farshid and his staff got my pain under control with therapy and exercises. Every step of the way they explained what procedure we would be doing and were there to help me through it. It wasn't long before my pain was gone. Then Farshid talked to me about why it got so bad. It was because of the way I had my computer at work configured. He showed me how to make my desk ergonomically correct. My posture made the difference! The pain has not returned because of the advice he gave me about how to work ergonomically. Thank you Farshid. I'm a big fan. read more

I had an amazing experience with Ocean Physical Therapy, I would highly recommend them. All aspects of patient care are done extremely well at this practice, including: *Assessment - Farshid is extremely thorough and really listens to what you have to say. *One-on-one time - each visit you will spend a significant amount of time with Farshid where he will follow his notes and constantly reassess how you are doing. He doesn't make assumptions, he asks. *Exercises - he has you do a lot of exercises at the appointment and gives practical and useful home exercises. He is also very adamant on following up with how you are doing with the exercises. Point blank: you won't get better unless you do the work. He gives you the tools and makes this very clear. *Reception - I was always in on time and out on time. All the staff is extremely friendly and work together very well. They are flexible with appointments and there were no issues with paperwork. My particular knee injury had been a lingering issue for about 2 years. Farshid was able to isolate it to my hips and use the exercises to correct it within about 8 sessions. I'm thrilled with the work he did and am very thankful. read more

I definitely would go here again if I ever needed to do PT. Dr.Farajzadeh has been practicing at this clinic for more than a decade so he knows his stuff. In addition, his staff is also very friendly and helpful. I feel better now thanks to him. Go here! read more

I cannot give enough accolades to the OCEAN Physical Therapy Group!!! The care I received was excellent. I have a rotator cuff injury that "acts up" whenever I do excessive lifting. I have been to a number of PT groups/facilities in the past and this, by far, exceeded all expectations. Reason - The actual "hands-on" time spent by Dr. Farshid Farajzadeh. Dr. Farshid not only explains the nature of an injury and how to best care for oneself, but in addition to the directed exercise done at the facilty, he, himself spends an extraordinary amount of time doing (one-on-one) passive manipulation. That really made a difference with me! I had never had any PT in the past spend as much personal time working on an injured area. I believe it really helped the healing process. Dr. Farshid is a perfectionist - in all the right ways! He does a very careful review of progress at the beginning of each appointment and implicitly follows his notes when doing manipulation and choosing exercises to be done at each visit. This is a small group - but a tightly run operation. The staff members were very respectful (and delightful) and appointments begin and finish "on-time"! No waiting! My results after 3 weeks were amazing. I am nearly pain free. Should I need another session of PT, I would return to this practice. I highly recommend this group to anyone needing PT. It is conveniently located - not far off of Highway 5. Even if you have to drive a distance to get there--- it will be well worth the time. read more

Great staff and the Physical Therapist does a great job. My ankle improved significantly!

Good physical therapy, friendly staff, flexible scheduling and convenient location with free parking. I went to Ocean Physical Therapy first for neck pain and again to rehab after healing from a broken elbow. The therapy for both conditions was very helpful. I would go again for any new injuries or physical therapy needs. read more
