Physical therapy in Berkeley

“Lower back and hip pain were the reason I went to The Technique PT. Dr. Lin was able to directly address these issues and after several sessions the symptoms were either nearly or completely eliminated. He uses a range of therapies in his office paired with an easy to use web-based program of individual exercises.“

“Honestly i was kinda blown away, I came in with a messed up neck from sleeping wrong and felt way better after just one session. The massage part was solid too the therapist found knots i didnt even know existed which was impressive and kinda painful but good painful if you know what I mean. My only small complaint is the booking process online was a bit clunky, took me a few tries to get the right time slot actually. Parking in the back was easier than i expected and the space itself was calm and clean the music is actually nice not that generic spa stuff. Overall really glad I went, will definitely go back its one of those places that makes you wonder why you put it off for so long.“

“After my surgery I initially worked with a UCSF pelvic floor therapist that my surgeon referred me to, and I was very unhappy with them. When I switched to working with Victoria at PFTB my care greatly improved and my healing progressed faster.“

“I cannot recommend personal training with Gretta Kirkby highly enough. I began my work with her at SOL in Berkeley to increase the benefit of my physical therapy. Gretta and my therapist worked well together to expedite my healing. The training helped me to use the exercises my therapist gave me, supplemented by exercises Gretta suggested, much more effectively than I would have been able to do on my own.

I continued working with Gretta after my therapy had ended not only to keep but to improve the strength I’d gained. I enjoyed the training so much I now work with Gretta on a weekly basis and have for over a year. My balance has improved, my muscles are stronger and my endurance has increased.

Gretta is wonderful! She consistently goes above and beyond for her clients. She is exceptionally friendly and easy to talk to, and makes me feel very comfortable. Gretta adjusts the training to fit the pace and needs of the client. She listens to my concerns and goals and comes up with a program that works for me (how much time I want to spend, etc.) to help me achieve those goals. Gretta consistently invites me to email her throughout the week if I have any questions. She is professional and efficient but also a lot of fun and the time goes quickly! I look forward to our training sessions. On a scale of 1-5, Gretta deserves at least 10 stars!“

“I am so grateful I found Janette. I started experiencing debilitating sciatica pain during my 3rd trimester of pregnancy. After Janette evaluated me, she figured out exactly what was causing the pain and her incredible skills brought me immense relief. I cannot imagine how I would have made it through my last two months of pregnancy if I had not worked with Janette. I highly and confidently recommend her!“

“I was impressed by the care and analysis taken by La Foot staff before they tried to sell me anything. After careful listening to my athletic needs, habits, and deficiencies they recommended a shoe that turned out to be ideal for my needs. The initial experience was so positive that I returned for gym specific shoes and ortho inserts for my Haflinger cork slippers. 6-months + into wearing the first shoes I remain totally satisfied. If you visit La Foot Plus be sure to go well before closing time. At the end of the day they respect their staff's non-work time by closing promptly at closing time, if not a little before.“

“Deena is a real healer. The combination of her impeccable knowledge of anatomy and how your body truly works with her experience and intentions to heal are truly wonderful and worth every moment and dollar spent.Often people work with a PT in emergency circumstances or recovering from an injury, but you may consider also working with her not in a time of crisis to improve your ergonomic relationship to whatever you do in your daily life and get tuned up! She’s wonderful and I can’t say enough good things, highly recommended.“

“Hello, today is my last visit here,so I must add my review. I absolutely recommend East bay pt. Starting with the owner Dave; he is a professional with unstoppable abilities and energy. He listens! My number one priority. Second the therapists are wonderful; working with whatever your need is. Knowledge and caring, all of them! I'm particularly grateful for Rosa! Thirdly, office staff are cordial and definitely work around your schedule. Thank you“
