    Before coming to Pro+Kinetix, I waited longer than I should have--probably a few months. Like a lot…read moreof active people, I thought I could just "run through it" and that it would resolve on its own. The main obstacle was honestly a mix of stubbornness and not wanting to slow down my training. I came in with a sports hernia and ongoing hip flexor issues. At my baseline, I was running about 60 miles a week and playing soccer twice weekly. By the time I sought help, I was down to ~20 miles a week and had completely stopped playing soccer. It was frustrating and honestly a bit concerning given how central activity is to my routine. Before PT, I tried the usual things--rest, stretching, some generic strengthening exercises, and modifying my running--but nothing really addressed the root problem. I'd improve slightly and then regress again. I chose Pro+Kinetix because of their reputation for working with athletes and their focus on performance-based rehab rather than just symptom management. I wanted someone who understood not just how to get me out of pain, but how to get me back to a high level of activity. Working with Dr. Jose Gonzalez Mejia was a game changer. What stood out was the specificity--everything was tailored: targeted strength work, movement pattern corrections, and a very intentional, progressive return-to-load plan. This wasn't a cookie-cutter program. He also did a great job explaining the why behind each exercise, which made it easier to stay consistent and confident in the process. As a patient, the experience was extremely professional and focused. Sessions were efficient, hands-on, and goal-oriented. It felt like a true partnership in getting back to performance, not just passive treatment. The impact has been huge. I'm now back up to ~50 miles per week and have started playing soccer again--something that felt pretty far off when I first came in. More importantly, I feel stronger and more resilient than before the injury, with a much better understanding of how to manage load and prevent recurrence.

    I can't recommend Pro+Kinetix Physical Therapy, and specifically Dr. Lorraine, enough. After a hip…read moreinjury, I worked with Dr. Lorraine over 10-15 sessions and saw dramatic improvements in my strength and mobility, ultimately returning to all of my pre-injury athletic hobbies without pain. What sets Pro+Kinetix apart: you get a full hour with your therapist (not the rushed 30-minute sessions I've experienced elsewhere), and you always work with the same person. That consistency made a world of difference. Dr. Lorraine not only built a structured, effective recovery plan, but she genuinely listened to my concerns and gave me the confidence that I'd get back to my normal, and I did. She also sent me home with a toolkit for both ongoing hip strength/mobility maintenance and to manage any future flareups, should they occur. My insurance didn't cover the cost, but I can say without hesitation that it was worth every penny.

I definitely recommend seeing him for your issues! Booking online was super easy and I could get appointments within a week.

    Ki is seriously the best! Last year I started having pain in my left hip and lower back (I suspect…read morefrom sitting too much at my desk job). A massage therapist told me I had a tight piriformis muscle but I didn't know exactly how to address it, except with short-term pain relief. Even though I have insurance, I came to Opus Physio because I wanted someone really great, who would work with me one-on-one in every single session. In my initial assessment, Ki quickly zeroed in on the fact that I had a muscle imbalance where my left hip muscles were weaker, causing the piriformis muscle to work too hard and start acting up. Over the next few months, he helped me bring my strength back up on my left side so that it is comparable to the right, and I haven't had any pain since. Ki is super knowledgeable, kind and patient. I felt like I could ask him any question and his explanations were always very thorough. He helped trouble-shoot any other issues that came up as I went through the exercises. When my treatment ended, I felt like I was equipped to maintain the improvements I had made and go on to have a normal workout routine. I highly recommend Ki if you're looking for someone who can diagnose you right away, create a tailored treatment plan and is attentive to you in every session. If I ever have any issues in the future, I will definitely come back to Opus Physio.

My practitioner was Jaclyn Chen, who was truly excellent in assessing my condition, tracking my progress and modifying my treatment/exercises over time. I worked with her for several months while my condition improved. She was always on time, patient, thoughtful, engaging and pleasant. I give Jaclyn and the practice as a whole 5 stars!

    WARNING: Three years ago these people told me they were billing insurance for my treatments. Now…read more*years later* they come out of nowhere saying they had a sub-par finance person who made a mistake and didn't correctly bill my insurance after all, so all this time later I need to pay them. Soo . . their mistake, but I have to pay? This is not a small amount of $. Of course, I would not have continued their treatments if I'd had to pay that amount of money for services that didn't make a huge difference. (YouTube videos were what got me better in the end) They can't bill my insurance all this time later because insurance long ago closed the incident that sent me to PT in the first place. But this is their responsibility. I'm curious how many other patients they are pulling this with. Feel free to message me here. They won't win this case, their behavior is indefensible and I have a lawyer on hand, but I worry for more vulnerable people. I'm reporting them to the BBB and the California Dept of Consumer Affairs so there is a record in case they're messing with others in the same way. Those websites in case you need them are: www.bbb.org and www.dca.ca.gov.

    I started seeing Dr Karah about 7 months before my first pregnancy to work on my pelvic floor in…read moreprep for labor. My first internal exams was tough for me but her incredibly calm nature and thorough cues taught me how to calm my nervous system and release tension. This ended up having a huge impact during labor when I had many cervical checks. I was able to prep myself to relax and the offer dreaded cervical checks were a breeze for me! The doctors were impressed with my ability to relax and it was entirely thanks to my work with Karah. I previously was tense and coordinating my breathing completely wrong which caused extra stress and pain. I think an appointment or two can do wonders for anyone who dreads gyno exams (paps, iud insertion, cervical checks ect) even if you don't have pelvic floor specific concerns. She is gentle and low pressure. She will also give you tips on how to do work at home if coming in is an obstacle.

    I want to highly praise Dr. Karah Charette for a beautiful session that supported healing my neck…read more Karah is a humble, brilliant and empathetic practitioner whose attunement and listening skills put me at ease as soon as I walked in. She was able to approach my chronic neck pain from many lenses, her physical therapy as well as a gentler somatic modality called Body, Mind, Centering. She described her work with people's core systems to work on the neck and hip biomechanics and any coordination issues that might exist, as well as the low back. We got on the floor and studied the anatomy of my neck, so I could get a visual and felt-sense of my ligaments there. With that sense, I am more prepared to let them hold the stress in my neck rather than the muscles needing to do the work. Then, she placed her gentle and wise hands on my neck and we used somatic visualizations to coax my nervous system to relax around my tender places. Her presence is so calming and her language invitational. I felt that I left with a greater sense of empowerment in how to guide myself to relax my neck, a more vivid map of my anatomy, and well, less neck pain. It was so much goodness in one session. I left feeling super centered, with significant reduction in my neck pain, and with a lot more awareness of the ligaments. Having a visual map of that area will help me relax it more effectively in the future. I recommend Dr. Karah wholeheartedly! -------
