Physical Therapy near El Cerrito

“Susan and her team helped me rehab after wrist surgery. She was patient, always encouraging, and knew exactly how to give me my mobility back. In prior experiences I used to dread going to PT, but not with Susan and team -- I always looked forward to her help keeping me on track and moving me forward. Sad to "graduate" but can't recommend highly enough. Thank you, Susan!“

“I'm so glad that I found Renew PT! I feel so reassured here, Nicole is an expert at what she does and makes me feel confident that I can trust the plan she puts me on. The PT has been working and I feel better equipped to prevent future injuries as well.“

“Thank you to Healthwell for being a smooth operating machine for specialty body work!Scheduling with Michael is so pleasant, even if it’s hard to get in.And Mindy is a specialist I am lucky to see! She’s helping to crack the code on a complex set of symptoms associated with hypermobility or hEDS.“

“Dr Lin is one of the most knowledgeable and patient physical therapists in the area. His team is also very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent place to get what you need to get rehabilitated. Staff is knowledgeable and professional, and am always looking for someone who is patient to work with.“

“I had gone to 3 other locations in the past for PT and I was so lucky to find Renew PT in Oakland. The 5 star reviews are all spot on and was so relieved to have this gem with wonderful staff in the front and PTs who are so thorough and excellent in assessing and providing effective exercises that really made a difference. The work space was very clean, not crowded and was a pleasure to go to. I liked that the exercise routines were easily accessible with video links that demonstrated the correct way to do the routines. I had Jeff and Lena for my physical therapists and both were great. I would definitely return to Renew if I needed rehab PT in the future.“

“Emily is very knowledgeable and was able to explain clearly what the issue causing pain in my back. She gave me exercises that targeted the weakness and am very happy that I made rapid progress after months with no improvement. She cares about her clients, is a good listener, and has so much valuable experience. I would recommend her to anyone.“

“Very professional experience. A lovely practice and great service by James. I’m feeling the results.“

“Daniela at the FiDi location is phenomenal. She is personable and provides focused, individualized care that shifts with my needs. I came to GSPORTS after seeing a PT at a different practice for the same injury, but not seeing results. I complained about one exercise in particular, and Daniela showed her mettle in explaining why it was helpful specifically for my injury, and supplementing with a range of more engaging exercises. She's also been great about providing letters to me documenting my need to take things slow while I heal. I'd come back to get care from her without reservation. The office helped me navigate my insurance eligibility with Aetna. While appointments here generally book weeks out, I recommend getting on the schedule and asking to be on the standby list to get in sooner.“

“TJ and Sergio at Belden PT are awesome. They helped me get back from a torn ACL and MCL. Very personable and caring, clean shop, and great service. Would definitely recommend.“

“Onsight is on point! Great space, amazing staff! Dr. Cheng is welcoming, knowledgeable, professional and responsive! Highly recommend Dr. Cheng! Thank you!“

“Amy and Iris are the two PT's that I've seen at Back to Life Physical Therapy; they both are very knowledgable, and thorough in their explanations and guidance. In addition to their abundant knowledge in the specific area of pelvic floor, the extra care and time they put in to really listen, understand and then instruct me have been what distinguishes them in the field of physical therapists. I have improved since starting to work with them (a year ago). The office is kept clean and neat, and is full of natural wood, natural light, and includes a library of pertinent material. Colleena, the receptionist/office manager, is a wonderful and personable and efficient part of the team. I highly recommend this practice.“

“I’ve worked with Dr Jess on several injuries related to long distance running: knees, feet, and ankles. She has always been able to help me get back to the sports I love quickly.In 2019 I had to take 10 months off of running due to injuries. Nothing I could find online was working for me and it didn’t get better with rest. I saw Dr Jess in early 2020 and she helped me identify and treat my IT band syndrome. I finished the year with over 1k miles and by 2022 achieved a long standing goal of mine to run a trail 50k in under 5 hours.What I like most about her approach is that she really teaches you how to improve form, strength, and flexibility on your own with exercises that I found easy to follow after the sessions.I will definitely see Dr Jess again if I have problems in the future.“

“Rebeca is a treasure. Her healing energy goes beyond the tension relieving benefits of massage to help rewire the nervous system to experience peace. She weaves together many branches of embodied knowledge to offer holistic healing, which is clearly her calling.“

“Dr. Cohen is fantastic. I really appreciate his holistic mind-body approach to his practice. Highly recommend!“

“Dr. Kristin is a gifted diagnostician and genuine healer. After carefully assessing my problem, she developed a customized plan that we amend each week as I make progress. She's an excellent communicator. The office staff is likewise efficient and accommodating. I highly recommend this practice!“

“The facility is clean and large, has lots of light, provides sufficient space for privacy, has well maintained equipment, and is located in a scenic area. A bonus to working out in the gym is the beautiful view of the Aquatic Park recreation area.“

“I was referred by UCSF Endometriosis Center to Janette for pelvic floor physical therapy following a laparoscopy. I had been in constant, chronic, and debilitating pain for over 2 years, which impacted my overall quality of life. Janette's individualized approach and expertise allowed me to feel relief the day following my first appointment. I noticed going from irritable and agitated due to the pain, to calm and present in my body. This was the first time I had felt like this in over 2 years and I became hopeful for my future. Janette validated my experience through her understanding of the latest endometriosis research. Janette provided manageable exercises where I was able to see progress between each session, which kept me motivated. I feel safe, seen, and held throughout this healing process by Janette's kind, calm, and present demeanor.“

“I was referred to Bayo Vista from a friend who had a great experience with Karen. I had Karen for my intake appointment she made me feel very comfortable with the pelvic exam. I have been working with Emily for all of my other appointments and she is WONDERFUL. She looks at your whole body and works on all parts holistically. I felt silly to point out my knee feeling stiff in one appointment as it wasn't the major problem spot. Emily looked into it and wow, did she make a difference! I felt like a new person. I had assumed that this knee would always feel that way after I had ACL reconstruction 7 years ago... but I was happily proven wrong! All appointments are 1 hour and you really get focused time with Emily or Karen. They are out of network with insurance, but I would still highly recommend them due to the quality of care you receive. Emily and Karen also have been very supportive of my bringing my baby with me. It was very comfortable to bring her and we took breaks as needed for nursing/holding. Thank you for being baby friendly, especially when a mama just needs some physical therapy love postpartum. :) Erika is also their billing and administrative ninja. She is so on top of sending out superbills for insurance the day of your appointment and booking appointments for you. I really appreciate that Bayo Vista uses text messages for booking appointments or their online system. I would highly recommended Bayo Vista!“

“I’ve gone to Kevin ,off and on ,for about 15 years . I went most recently for sciatica. Kevin was able to alleviate my pain in a few short visits . He is so personable , professional and kind . I would also like to say that the girls at the front desk are also great . I highly recommend Kevin’s practice to anyone looking for a chiropractor.“

“Joe has the magic and wonder touch of healing. ❤️‍ Thank you for the care you provide. ?“

“I've been coming to Maggie for months now and have had a noticeable improvement in my hip openness and back discomfort. She's an excellent listener and teacher - helps identify and focus on specific areas for treatment during the sessions and teaches stretches/exercises you can do at home. Clean studio and relaxing atmosphere.“

“Jeff at Movewell is amazing. I've seen other physical therapists and he was by far way more thorough and knowledgeable than my previous therapists. Strongly recommend if you are a cyclist, runner or swimmer. Seriously, don't hesitate, you'll thank me later!“

“Dr. Rabbetz has been part of my trusted care circle for over a year. What I appreciate most about Dr. Rabbetz is how thorough he is in diagnosing a problem and the follow up care to check in on how I'm doing. For example, when I came to him with leg pain last year, he determined it was in fact a tear in my hip and sent me to the best hip specialist in San Francisco. I needed surgery and coached me every step of the way, and was very involved in my recovery. His positivity, encouragement and care has gotten me through countless ailments (including neck and wrist) and I'm so thankful. Thank you Dr. Rabbetz for your healing powers, your wisdom, and for being YOU!“

“On the very strong recommendation of another PT who had moved out of the area, I went to see Steve Ryan for reverse total shoulder replacement post-op physical therapy. Steve is simply the best, most knowledgeable, competent, straightforward, compassionate, patient and organized physical therapist I have ever worked with. The written instructions and (excellent) videos for the prescribed PT exercises are available the day of or 1 day after your appointment. He is very organized and prompt so appointments are always on time. I am 79 years old and very active for my age. Steve guided me through a major glitch in my surgical recovery and I am now fully back to all my physical activities. I'm sure I couldn't have done this without his professional mentorship. Strongly and without hesitation thank and recommend Dr. Stephen Ryan for physical therapy.“

“She is amazing. I am doing some deep transformative work with a Chiropractor and she recommended I meet Sasha, and I'm so glad I did. Rolfing is changing my life. I can walk with more ease and confidence. I feel better in my skin. Her technique, commitment, communication, and care is appreciated. I feel like she is truly passionate and cares about what she does and that her heart is in it. Grateful to be on this journey and have her as a tremendous support. Thank you Sasha!!“
