The team at NeuroSport in South Pasadena is fantastic, we're so glad we discovered them…read more Lacy and the front desk are always on top of scheduling, it's all pretty seamless. Mari, my wife's long term Physical Therapist is awesome. She's patient, caring, knowledgeable, and very friendly & personable. She's also very good at adapting the treatment to the unpredictable changes in wife's condition. It seems like other patients there have their own favorite Therapist, so I assume it's a strong staff all around. Lately there's an assistant / intern, Matthew, who is a great addition. The facility is always clean and calm, with a relaxed, friendly vibe. Great location, right near the freeway and tons of nearby lunch options and parks. The sessions are always one of the highlights of our week. We come across town for this, and are happy to do so. Also, they validate parking, which is always appreciated! A+!!!

I highly recommend NeuroSport Physical Therapy, especially Grant Duncan. From my very first visit,…read moreI knew I was in great hands. Grant is knowledgeable, patient, compassionate, and truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to listen, explains everything clearly, and never makes me feel rushed. What impressed me the most was that he focused on what would be best for my long-term recovery after my upcoming hip replacement surgery. It's rare to find someone who genuinely put his patient's needs first. I also appreciate the hands-on treatment he provides. He spends time working directly on my muscles and mobility instead of relying mostly on machines. Before coming to NeuroSport, I could't fully extend my leg or turn onto my side in bed. Now I can do both without struggling. Everyone at NeuroSport is friendly and professional. If you're looking for a physical therapist who is skilled, honest, and truly cares, I highly recommend Grant Duncan and the entire NeuroSport team. I have been to five or six physical therapy clinics over the years, and NeuroSport stands out. The quality of care and the personal attention they provide are truly exceptional.

I was having issues with my shoulders and neck-my doctor prescribed physical therapy and gave me a…read morelist to choose from-I'm very happy that I chose Landswick! From my initial phone call setting up a consultation to finishing my prescribed schedule of sessions, I had nothing but great experiences. My therapist was Kristen (you see the same person every time) and she was caring, easygoing and professional. She listened to my concerns, acted on them and set me up with an at-home exercise/therapy routine that actually worked for me! I can't compare to other PT places with no previous experience, but it was very refreshing that her goal was to get me to a place where she DIDN'T have to continue seeing me. Each visit consisted of 30 minutes with Kristen doing hands on therapy and then time afterward with an assistant in their 'gym' where I did the work, preparing me for what I could do at home. I would totally recommend Landswick, and will go back again if my issues return!

Justin is a true professional. For a year and a half, I struggled with lower back, hip, and…read moresciatica pain. I couldn't sit comfortably or lie in bed without discomfort. Some nights, the only relief I could get was by standing in my room. I tried everything--chiropractors, anti-inflammatories, acupuncture--but nothing worked. From my very first visit to Landswick, Justin took a different approach. He methodically ruled out what wasn't causing my pain, narrowing the issue down to the piriformis muscle. You could tell his mind was constantly working--analyzing, adjusting, solving. Over the course of about 20 visits, he guided me through stretches that gradually reduced and then eliminated the pain. Once I was out of the woods, we shifted focus to strengthening the muscles that support my back and hips. Before I came to Landswick, I had started to believe that pain was just part of my new normal in my mid-sixties. But Justin showed me that didn't have to be the case. I haven't taken so much as an Advil in months. I'm beyond grateful.

What can I say that hasn't already been said about Dr. Loc?…read more In one sentence... He is a living healer. Yes, he's far and yes he's expensive but in ONE visit he fixed my shoulder pain. In the second visit he freed up my ribs from tightness caused by double mastectomy scar tissue. I couldn't breathe properly for years. Two visits. Yes I did weekly physical therapy, weekly massages, acupuncture, Rolfing, sauna, cold plunge, PEMF mat, hyperbaric oxygen, I honestly could keep going but you get the point. If you're considering making the drive and investment do it.

I never find myself writing reviews for anything, but I think I owe it to anyone looking to get out…read moreof pain, perform better in their sport, or just recover from an injury or surgery to share the experience that I, and four others, had after seeing Dr. Locatelli Rao in Pasadena. TLDR: He has been able to help each of us after we all were separately convinced that we had seen "all of the best" PTs/therapists/healers in California, Minnesota and Vancouver. I found him while I was training for an Ironman a couple of years ago. I had experienced a number of injuries while training that were starting to slow me down. Not only did those injuries resolve, but in later appointments with him I was able to fix my chronic shoulder/neck and low back pain that I had been living with for the last 15 years after injuries/surgeries from playing high school football and baseball. I can't put a price on what this has done for my quality of life as someone who values taking care of my health and fitness. Since then I have sent my parents, girlfriend and one of my friends to him and we have all had the same experience. Parents: Dad (ankle) Mom (meniscus) - - both of them are now pain free after they had been living in pain for the past two decades after each of their injuries. One of my best friends experienced a near-death skydiving accident. Broke 4 cervical vertebrae and tore his acetabular labrum (hip labrum) and had seen 12+ specialists to try to get out of pain and regain his mobility he had lost after being in a neck brace for 4 months. He was told that all of those specialists were the best in their fields/techniques but he only saw either marginal improvement (if any) or temporary improvement/relieve with them. After one appointment with Dr. Loc he regained most of the functionality of his left hip and is excited to go back and address his neck pain with Dr. Loc. For the first time in half a decade he is feeling confident that there is actually a path out of pain for him. My girlfriend had low back pain throughout her life as long as she can remember. After a single appointment with Dr. Loc she has not experienced anywhere near the intensity/frequency of pain that she was experiencing prior. Even a day of sitting too long at her desk chair would have her at 6/10 pain and now the worst she experiences is a 1.5-2/10 after heavy lifting/long hikes. (follow him on Instagram and you'll see dozens of case studies and other examples of this happening for other people as well) Put simply: We all call him a wizard and he is the now the first person we are all recommending other people go and see when they're dealing with any sort of pain. It's a long drive for me to go and see him, but I'd make the trip if it were 10x longer.

Unfortunately I was only able to attend one session due to other financial constraints/medical…read moreissues. However, after only one session I've had only one tension headache (probably my fault for sleeping on my side). I have been in and out of physical therapy for three years for a shoulder impingement/tension headaches. For three years I could not get relief. After ONE SESSION with Dr. Maddie, I felt better than I had in YEARS! I have continued to do the prescribed exercises, and I am only getting better. I was living in debilitating pain that caused me to miss out on work and life in general. Now I'm happier, my body is more relaxed, and my quality of life has improved. It took Dr. Maddie one session to fix what others had tried to fix for years. I will tell you it's because Dr. Maddie and Carolynn (the kind woman who takes care of the front desk and I'm sure much more) listened to me and made my treatment work for me. I'm so grateful for these two people. What a wonderful place!!!

It can be really intimidating to find the right Physical Therapist. How do you decide? What makes a…read moregreat PT and how do you find them when it seems like there are so many options. I had been in ankle pain for more than a year....but I did what so many of us do, I put it off, I pushed through. I climbed Mt. Whitney (after climbing all the highest peaks in Southern California) and pushed through it until I couldn't push through it anymore. Running (one of my favorite forms of exercise) was now off the table. I needed help. I sat down with a list of Physical Therapists and started calling and when I spoke to Carolyn - she listened - she asked questions and she genuinely seemed to care. After listening to me she knew I had to get in to see Dr. Maddie and she made it happen. I booked an appointment and then received my welcome packet. It was thorough and helpful and I knew what to expect before I walked into my first appointment. Maddie listened and committed to making a plan to get me back to all of my favorite activities and then she dug in and she worked hard for me and felt invested in my recovery. I can not overstate the value of the 1:1 experience. When you're working with Dr. Maddie you have her full attention and your therapy is tailored to your needs. She answers questions and keeps you informed so that you can be partners in your recovery. She uses an app to provide your home exercise routine and she adapts as needed. I was also pleasantly surprised when I was sent home with the things I needed to do my home exercises, at no extra charge! The attention to detail from Elevated Physical Therapy is unparalleled as is the level of care you'll receive from the whole team. My experience then led my husband to working with Dr. Maddie too. I've been able to return to hiking, playing tennis and running without pain! And I know Elevated PT will be there for me if I need anything in the future.

Jeffery is very knowledgeable and patient! Took his time to assess my complaints/injury every…read moresingle time. Had about 6 sessions and every session he showed the same diligence in his assessments. He would take videos of my run form, give feedback and explain why certain movements can cause muscles strain/ discomfort! I had persistent knee pain that would not go away. I've tried massage, acupuncture, rest, stretching but nothing would resolve the issue. After 2 sessions with Jeffery, I started noticing significant improvement with pain relief and run performance. Every session Jeffery would build on the exercise and send videos/training schedule on an app. The app was very helpful, with daily reminders for exercises and help me adhere to my rehab goals. I've been pain free after my 6 session and would likely return for sessions to help with performances /strengthening exercises

I was referred to Dr. Jeffery Su by my partner, who found him via Yelp. I decided to go with Dr. Su…read moreafter researching all of my physical therapist options through my health insurance and found that they all had terrible Yelp reviews. The reason my partner liked Dr. Su was because he actually tries to help you without roping you into seeing him multiple times just to get money out of you, which I found to be very true - he was able to fix me in just 3 sessions. Paying the $165 per session out of pocket (still FSA/HSA eligible though), was well worth the money in my opinion because I was desperate to get better from my pickleball injury and get back to playing ASAP. Before coming to Dr. Su, I was trying to diagnose myself with ChatGPT and was following their prescribed regimen to heal myself. I wish I had gone to Dr. Su earlier because he was able to diagnose my issue in the first session and give me actionable strengthening exercises (he posts all the assigned exercises, with instructional videos, on the PtEverywhere App) to provide me with some immediate relief from the pain. Dr. Su said that I had strained my (sacrotuberous) ligament, which ChatGPT said would take 4-6 weeks to heal. After religiously doing my strengthening exercises for 4 weeks, I found that my pain was low enough to where Dr. Su approved my slow return to Pickleball and Aerial Silks (he's incredibly responsive via text). I found that as I would play, the same right side was continuing to give me trouble. So I went back to see him a 2nd time. At this session he was able to diagnose that my right hip was super tight and was impeding my recovery - he wasn't able to discover that during the first session because I was in so much pain that he was only focused on fixing that first. He used a strap to pull on my right hip to gain some mobility back, but it barely moved. The next couple of days I was incredibly sore but continued to religiously complete my newly assigned strengthening exercises along with foam rolling (if he forgets to posts the exercises on the app, just text him and he'll post them right away). Whatever he did to me, worked because by the 3rd day, my pain was gone! That along with the foam rolling was probably exactly what I needed too because I was able to easily move into my right front split without the tightness I had been experiencing for years! My follow-up appointment was a week and a half later with Dr. Su and I had no pain to report to him. He tested my right hip again and was able to finally get the head of my right femur to actually "bounce"/move normally during this 3rd session. He taught me some lifetime maintenance and strengthening exercises for my overall health and longevity for playing pickleball, which he posted on the app. He also sent me some links to adjustable home weights to help me save space in my apartment. I generally have trouble sticking to self-guided workouts but Dr. Su simplified them to just 25 minutes of exercises, twice a week. Hey - if that's all I need to keep playing pickleball without injury for the rest of my life, I'm sold. Sign me up!

She was efficient and professional, teaching me exactly what I needed to quickly reverse the damage I'd done to my back.

She's helped me with everything I've needed over the past few months since I started seeking her help. Before Dr. Cindy, I'd always go to a chiropractor. For many years, I wasted money and had to return to them over and over. I'm so glad now that I have someone to teach me how I can protect my body from pain and heal it on my own.

Many of the patients are lost and confused with the work outs they are provided. Others are seen waiting to be helped. They also wanted to point out seeing so many patients at a time seem almost unnecessary, which looked like it lead to a lack of quality of instructions during the exercises. They have aides running around back and forth to each patient, juggling trying to help everyone out all at once. It seemed like inefficient system. The patient experienced help from a new aide who seemed to have made a slight mistake. They both were then accompanied by the office manger telling the aide he is wrong. And instead of helping and teaching the workout the office manger came off as rude and blunt to both the aide and patient when trying to explain the mistake. His actions felt very discriminative. Would not recommend this clinic.
