    The recent 2017 Xmas lunch for staff and clients was great. A lot more food and treats than seen here. Lots of yumm!
    Pham A.

    I started coming here after I moved to Long Beach in May of 2017. AKA: Select Physical Therapy. 7 months later and I'm still making my visits anywhere from once to twice a week. Hopefully insurance will allow me to continue making appointments while I work through to recover from a sour lower spinal laminectomy. I've been to a lot of physical therapy places around Southbay to Long Beach and even Portland, Oregon. Most have been okay except for one in LB and Portland is just awful. Tried water spa therapy but didn't like sharing a small pool with so many people, kind of icky thinking about some of the hygiene even with all the chlorine. Anyways ... this place is an absolute gem. My sessions are about two hours, one hour dedicated to typical therapy exercise and stretching. The other hour is more hands on manual. Anything from massage and muscle stretching to resistance and motion interaction. It's more like a hands on personal trainer, which is beneficial and enjoyable with my ongoing condition. Not many places do this, so it's nice to find a place that does. Valerie has a lighter touch, and Kenny does the tough stuff for much longer, both on Team 2. There are others that also do the manual work but I have not worked with them. They basically break everyone up into three teams and you often work with anyone in that team, sometimes crossing over. The therapy tables are constantly cleaned by spraying them with alcohol and wiping them down after every use. There are two tables that mechanically raise and lower. There are hot and cold packs too, plus the usual PT equipment. All the staff are nice, especially the teams working on the floor. Some of those girls are extra pretty and sweet! Scheduling is easy and can be done very last minute if needed over the phone or in person. Easy parking in a private lot shared with some other businesses and a church, it can get a little full when busy, you can try the lot on the left side. Street parking is super easy and right out front. There are two session rooms, one has more windows but the other side is usually busier with more equipment. Bathrooms are clean. Luckily in 2017 my insurance has covered nearly 100 sessions of Therapeutic and Manual (I'll probably need another 100 in 2018), which is quite a lot. I haven't had to pay a single cent for anything. Guess it depends on your insurance. As for the complaint of not getting enough hands on care, step up and vocalize with your therapy leader what you want. They are very attentive and your sessions can be altered or tailored to fit your needs more, but it's not going to happen if you don't speak up or ask. So yeah, definitely check this place out if you're looking for a good PT place in Long Beach. Surely one of the best! Thanks for all the help. :)

When I arrived for my first appointment, Pine made me feel instantly zen. By my second appointment, I felt 100% better. I was not thinking about my pain indicating my pain level was at a 0 or 1. Let's be real - you need to put in the work at home. The solution is not showing up to your appointment and going through the exercises at your appointment only. You need to take the learned exercises and continue the program DAILY at home. On a DAILY basis, I run through my program after I wake up in the early morning. The BENEFIT - where there was early morning wake up pain has diminished to no pain to mild stiffness. This program EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS. I will continue to run through the program daily at home before my remote work day begins. Your benefit will reveal with your hard work and self motivation. Now - go to Seal Beach Physical Therapy and start your journey to DIMINISHED PAIN! It is all about the work!

I chose this place out of convenience to the Weapons Station. Jesse was my therapist and she was fantastic! I had about 10 appointments in total before we hit the road again. She was easy to talk with and helped to explain things in simple terms. Her aids, Ryan, Jules, Emma, & Sophie were all great. They each had a good sense of humor and really paid attention to me while I was completing my exercises! Even more, I felt better upon each visit. They all made the difference! There were a few other places close by that I could have chosen. I'm glad I went with this facility as they were all wonderful, they were on time with starting my appointments, carried on professionally and were always welcoming!

    A Recovery Journey Worth Celebrating…read more After major neck surgery, I specifically requested Southland Physical Therapy by name--and they exceeded every expectation. This facility became my path back to full conditioning, and I'm grateful for every session. What struck me immediately was the diversity of the patient community: athletes training for competition, working professionals recovering from injuries, people of all ages united by one thing--a willingness to do the work. That environment itself became motivating. The entire team deserves recognition. Every therapist and PTA brought expertise and genuine care to their work. The operational excellence impressed me too: reminders arrived the day before appointments, they consistently ran on time despite high volume, and every interaction came with a smile. A special acknowledgment to Conner, who balanced knowledgeable instruction with the perfect level of challenge. Each week, he pushed me just beyond what I'd accomplished the week before--exactly what I needed to progress. Beyond physical recovery, Southland reminded me of something essential: how to stay positive regardless of the challenges we face. That lesson extends far beyond the treatment room. If you're willing to put in the work, this is where you want to be.

They hang up without saying goodbye, they talk like they're doing you a favor by answering the phone or any of your questions and they sound like they haven't been trained at all. The aides are friendly but only a couple of them actually watch and help you with your form on your exercises which is the point of their job. It is hard to rate this location because the therapists themselves are excellent. It's just everything else. Management should take more of an interest in training their staff.

The front desk staff are some of the most attentive and helpful and warm that I've experienced in a medical office. You can tell they actually care about their jobs. The same can be said of the therapist and the aides that work there as well as well as the doctor herself. Everyone here cares about their jobs and they care about their patients. I came in with my first big injury to my right forearm and was originally told that it would take months for it to heal to the point where I could work out again. I worked with Mike and his awesome aides for a month and change and my arm has healed enough to where I can get back to weightlifting with my right arm. My only critique is that sometimes the office was so busy I didn't have any personal space to do my exercises. Their support has been invaluable for my recovery journey. If you are considering coming to this office, don't think just do it!
