He offers a wide and unique range of therapeutic specialities. Today we started with pain targeted stretching techniques, then some hammer therapy, and finished with a massage and some icy hot. Kevin knows his craft and he knows it well. I've come in for lower back pain today and in the past but he has also helped with pain in my shoulders and knees. I recommend him to all of my family members and they never leave disappointed. 10/10 recommend for anyone who's looking for a personalized pain management session. He's also got some sweet t-shirts that are amazingly soft. I would give 6 starts if I could.

I have been a patient at SDSM for most of my adult life. I've referred many to them…read more I can honestly state that having worked in the medical field, a better team of professionals/physicians does not exist in SD. Quality care, listening, quickly diagnosing/treating appropriately. Staff is friendly & competent. Dr Scott Evans has been my primary, although I've seen others that I've been equally impressed with. The only negative from a patient standpoint is appts can be difficult to come by. However, they will accommodate urgent matters. I cannot say enough great things about this group. I feel very blessed to have this team guiding my healthcare.

I had just experienced another flareup and was feeling desperate. They were able to get me in to see Dr. Shane quickly, and when I tell you that I felt like I was with a miracle worker. We went through several motions during the intro session, and he was able to diagnosis my issue (piriformis syndrome and tight hips). He performed cupping and massage, and he was able to loosen up my stubborn hips. He then had me perform some PT exercises, and I IMMEDIATELY felt relief. I honestly couldn't believe it. I thought the relief would go away after a few hours, but it stayed for a few days. I've worked him for about 6 sessions now, and I've felt drastic improvements. He tailors the training session to my problem areas, and he doesn't increase my load too quickly, to make sure I don't reinjure myself (which had been happening before). It's a bit pricy, but it's honestly been a lifesaver for me. Would recommend to anyone!

On 9/9/2024 I was injured during a massage at Sports Performance Physical Therapy in Chula Vista…read more The LMT had her elbow in the intercostal space of my left anterior chest when I suddenly felt an incredible amount of sharp, stabbing pain. I cried out and requested that she remove her elbow from my chest. The pain in my left chest was excruciating. I was unable to use my left arm without experiencing an enormous amount of pain. Even breathing was painful. Coughing and sneezing were unbearable. When I woke up the next morning, the pain was severe. Based on my symptoms, I was afraid I had a rib fracture. I contacted Cristianah Comaduran, Operations Manager of Sports Performance to notify her of the injury. She spoke with the LMT, who verified what happened. We stayed in contact over the next several weeks. I informed her that I would be filing a claim with their liability insurance and would contact her once I was completely asymptomatic. For the next two weeks, the pain was severe. I was unable to work, do household chores, and help my 4 year son with the things he needed, like getting dressed, bathing, basic ADLs. I filed a short term disability claim through my employer (I'm an ICU nurse). The stipulation for payment is that the first two weeks are unpaid, and then 60% of earnings are paid. This was a great financial burden for my family. The consequences of this injury were costly with low income for the months of October and November. My pain continued to improve until I caught an upper respiratory infection (URI) that caused continuous coughing. The pain was back and it was severe. Each cough and sneeze was excruciating. Once the URI resolved, my pain improved. For two months, the pain and suffering was debilitating, not allowing me to work, exercise, take care of the household, and most importantly, my son. It caused sleepless nights because the pain medication I was prescribed did little to relieve my symptoms, which lead to chronic exhaustion. The findings of my MRI on 11/14/24, which was two months after the injury, showed asymmetric edema at the level of the left third sternocostal joint. Two months after the injury, I still had abnormal results which were consistent with my symptoms. My thoracic spine MRI from 2022 showed none of these injuries. My PCP's impression was that there was a sprain of costal cartilage subsequent encounter. He determined it was costal-sternal joint strain vs developing costochrondritis. Along with pain and suffering, I experienced anxiety and distress due to financial strain. The injury resulted in thousands of dollars of missed wages. In addition, I was unable to accrue paid time off and contribute to my pension and retirement fund. This set me back two months from being vested at work. When I returned to work, I had very little sick or vacation time due to the inability to accrue paid time off (PTO). In January of 2025, I called out sick for 3 shifts (36 hours) when I was sick with the flu. I did not have enough sick time to cover the hours missed. I also received a double occurrence for my absence, which was not cleared from my record until January of 2026. It was worrisome that despite returning to work, the effects of this injury continued to be a financial burden and was affecting my performance review at work. This incident has also resulted in out of pocket costs, such as co-pays and pharmaceuticals, not to mention I was never reimbursed for the massage that started it all!! Perhaps worse than everything, I had to borrow money from my parents, so there's an element of shame in addition to the pain, suffering, and distress. This injury has been costly in terms of lost wages/PTO accrual and out of pocket expenses, not to mention inability to contribute to retirement and inch closer to being vested at my place of employment. I submitted an incredible amount of documents to Sports Performance in attempt to file a claim against their liability insurance. They were extremely difficult to work with and despite my repeated efforts to present all documents they requested, my claim was denied. Total cost for lost wages and out of pocket costs: $20,224.09. Because of this massage, I experienced pain, suffering, chronic exhaustion due to insomnia, anxiety, distress, and shame...and I didn't even get a fucking apology.

He did not listen while I was describing my issues and ended up saying that that does not sound bad. And that he didn't know why I came to him in the first place while I was telling him I had severe pain in my abdomen. Over all the clinic itself has a very shady atmosphere and I cannot help but wonder what else is going on there or how many people were misdiagnosed by him. Additionally, I was groped while leaving by one of the nurses. This was the worst experience with a doctor I have ever had. By the way I ended up going to the hospital after this where I had to schedule a surgery immediately, turns out the sharp pain in my abdomen was in fact "that bad".

My Doctor enthusiastically referred me to SpineZone, as he had utilized the facility himself and personally endorsed it. I must say...although it was not an easy journey to recovery, SpineZone certainly did their best to get me down that road as quickly and effectively as possible! This place was great, I'm very glad that my Doctor sent me to SpineZone! This is a facility that is run by an Intelligent, Affable, & Dedicated Staff! In my time there, I was instructed by at least 6 different Physical Therapists, and never once did any of them make me feel stupid or weak for not being able to complete or understand certain exercises! Each time I left SpineZone, I left with a feeling like I was another small step closer to regaining my Strength, and in turn, my life! Even in the midst of the Pandemic, SpineZone stayed in touch with me, periodically checking up on me to see how I was feeling, and gave me access to their extremely Helpful & Expeditious Online Program to continue my Therapy at my own pace! All In All, my time at SpineZone was an enlightening & enriching experience from start to finish! And aside from some minor soreness when I start to slip back into my own bad habits & improper posture, My Back feels Strong once again, and my posture feels so much straighter and more symmetrical, far more so than when I began the program! SpineZone gave me the tools to take back my Strength, I just had to make the Conscious Choice to use them, and follow their instructions & routines, which I will admit, can be difficult at times. But that's Physical Therapy in a Nutshell I suppose, it all comes down to conscious choice & of course, the proper guidance....which you will certainly get from this place! If you have the will, SpineZone is The Way:)
