It took me 3 years since the onset of my symptoms to find a provider that took me seriously and…read morecared/was curious enough to figure out what was going on with me. Unfortunately, over those 3 years, my pain intensified, became widespread, and turned chronic. But finding Wan-Kai, the owner and primary PT, in 2017 completely changed the trajectory of my life. Wan-Kai takes a hands-on approach to his treatment and will spend the entire hour and finding your referred pain points. He once determined that my wrist and elbow pain was stemming from the fascia in my cheeks: he used deep pressure to release the tension, and I immediately felt relief and was in awe of his expertise. You will be amazed by how much he knows about the interconnected pathways of the body that most other PTs do not, because those ones rarely spend time working with their hands literally on their patients, checking their entire bodies from head to toe. I am beyond grateful to have found Wan-Kai and his practice, and I have already decided to do everything in my power to schedule time with him when I need it, regardless of the travel or wait time that would require of me.

Nancy, Mary, Ernie, and the whole staff were an integral part of my newfound education about…read morehealing the human body. Not only did I fully recover from tendinitis in both shoulders based on their tutelage, I learned how to listen to my body and let go of the unproductive adages like "no pain, no gain". I'm tuned-in to my physical fitness and I acquired the information to do so through conversations with Nancy and Mary during my treatments. Overall, I highly recommend La Palma Physical therapy. You will receive phenomenal physical therapy service; and, if you're willing and inquisitive, an in-depth knowledge about learning to "listen to your body". P.S. I am currently receiving treatment from La Palma Physical therapy for a knee problem, which inspired me to write this review. Being back with Nancy and Mary has reminded me of how great they are at what they do!!

I thoroughly reviewed beforehand the orthopedic doctor who was going to do my surgery and I did the same with finding a physical therapist. After looking up numerous facilities I came across "La Palma Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine" in the city of La Palma,. The one FABULOUS thing that differed from other facilities was that they do massage therapy along with you doing your exercise program. None of the other places I reviewed offered message therapy which made a big difference on how I was progressing. I had the pleasure of having Mary and Nancy as my physical therapists. I've told them both they have the "magic hands" that have facilitated in my recovery immensely. This facility cares about you getting better and I highly recommend them. Thank you Ernie for the smooth processing of my insurance, Roberta with helping with my exercise routine, and Mary and Nancy with my physical therapy. You all are AMAZING!

I went on Yelp to check reviews and Balance and Motion Physical Therapy had the highest best rated reviews. My mother called and made an appointment the same week. We arrived on a Friday late afternoon for her first session. Location is clean and well managed. Leonard is the MPT and he is the sweetest! He was very welcoming and my mother felt very comfortable. He is very personable and knowledgeable. Within my mother's 60 minutes session, she would do the following: stationary bike, assisted pull ups from the chair, weights, and treatment for her areas of pain. After a couple sessions, my mother was able to see results. Her swelling went down and she started to gain her strength back. She saw Leonard twice a week for two months and she is back to her normal self. Overall, I highly recommend Leonard at Balance and Motion Physical Therapy.

I've done continuous stretching and exercises I've learned online in order to try to stay active. Start of DynamX PT: Abigail did my evaluation and noticed I had weak posterior chain. Her and Dustin came up with a workout routine that I did both at physical therapy and at home. In my 3-month span I was able to go from barely able to jog with pain to one legged explosive jumping. It did take lots of work but with Dustin's dynamic workouts I was able to improve gradually over time. Thanks: Huge shout out to Fain for staying on top of my insurance company. To Abigail, Victor and temp PT intern Charlene. Definitely to Dustin who worked with me on most of my appointments. The whole team here is great thank you so much for helping me through my knee pain!

I can finally workout, lift weights, walk my German Shepherd, and get back to my normal daily activity. He pushed me enough to feel like I was progressing each week, while keeping in mind my body's needs and not overworking it. Not only did he help me through my injury, but he was a kind and pleasant person to work with. He truly listened to my feedback and tailored and updated my care plan to exactly what I needed to recover fully. He even has helped me come up with a preventative stretching routine to do before more workouts. If you need a patient, caring PT and one who TRULY listens, Elliot is your guy!
