Conditions We Treat: Physical Therapy in Pasadena, CA

You get one clinician, one on one, for your whole visit. No aides, no being handed off, no three people sharing one therapist. We test first, then treat, so your plan is built on what your body actually shows us, not a guess. Every plan is built on hands-on work and exercise, and when your tissue needs extra help healing, we can add regenerative therapy like shockwave and EMTT right from the start instead of waiting until everything else has failed.

No. California lets you see a physical therapist directly. You can book an evaluation today. If something we find needs a physician's eyes, we'll tell you and help you get there.

Sessions are 30 or 60 minutes, one on one. How many you need depends on what's going on, how long it's been there, and how your body responds. Your evaluation tells us which is best for you. A thorough plan typically runs about six weeks, and we re-test along the way so you can see progress instead of taking our word for it.

Back and neck pain, shoulder and rotator cuff problems, knee pain and meniscus issues, hip pain, plantar fasciitis and Achilles problems, tennis elbow, sports injuries, headaches and TMJ, post-surgical rehab, concussion, and chronic pain that keeps coming back. If you're not sure your problem fits, call and ask. We'll tell you honestly.

Usually one of three things went wrong: the real cause was never found, the treatment was only exercise or only hands-on when you needed both, or the tissue wasn't healing well enough to respond. We address all three. We test to find the actual driver, we combine hands-on care and exercise, and we add regenerative therapy from the start when tissue quality is the problem.

Often, yes. Research shows that for many knee, shoulder and back problems, good rehab does as well as surgery over time. It isn't true for everyone, and we'll tell you if we think you need a surgical opinion. But if you've been told surgery is your only option, it's worth a second look before you commit.

Comfortable clothes you can move in. Shorts if it's a knee or hip. A tank top or sports bra if it's a shoulder. Bring any imaging reports or prior notes if you have them, but don't worry if you don't. We test you ourselves either way.

Our team is led by Dr. Jason Han, PT, DPT, SCS, CSCS, a board-certified sports physical therapist and former head of rehab for LAFC. Every physical therapist here holds a doctorate and treats one on one. You can meet the whole team on our Meet the Team page.
