Physical Therapists near Lake Forest

“Dr. Taylor was attentive to my needs. He took the time to work on various trouble points and give me exercises that focused on those points. The facility runs very efficiently and I was never waiting too long in the waiting room.“

“Great enthusiasm and positivity from the front desk ladies to each one of the therapists with whom I interacted. Therapists are attentive to each individual while working with multiple clients (no waiting extended amounts of time once my exercise ended). Very knowledgeable therapists who are able to adjust and offer a variety of effective exercises. Great environment at this location - cleanliness, air circulation, checkin-in process. Overall, AMAZING positive vibe and, most importantly, providing excellent therapy to aid in my quick recovery. Lorrie, Leslie, Michael, Nico, and Brian , you guys rock! Thank you!

THE best physical therapy I've ever had! I highly recommend this location.“

“Great Team and Real Progress!
My left elbow and forearm are getting better every time I go to physical therapy.
I have Parita, Patrick, Shane, and the whole team to thank for that! Thank you so much!
Even though it’s not fully healed yet, I can feel real improvement after each session. They’re professional, supportive, and clearly care about helping me recover.
I’m really grateful for their help and highly recommend them to anyone needing physical therapy!“

“As someone who likes to learn, Julie Thomas was incredibly kind, insightful, and educated me on the why and how my ankle was hurting. She recommend exercises that challenged my mobility (in a good way) and made me feel like she cared.“

“I have been working with all 3 of our Dr.’s here at Lifetime Clinic Laguna niguel for over a year now and am beyond happy with the results of their hard work. I have vastly improved my range of motion and regained strength in my left shoulder after an injury. Overall would highly recommend the Life Clinic.“

“I went to Impact Physical Therapy because my husband went to them after his hip replacement surgery. I worked with Ryan Stuhr, one to one. I needed shoulder surgery and wanted to strengthen my shoulder before the surgery, hoping for a better recovery. Ryan helped me so much I am no longer planning to have the surgery. I am pain free. I couldn't even lift a coffee cup when I started working with him. I have also gone to Ryan for back and knee issues and he has helped me tremendously. At Impact you always work one on one with a therapist and I think it makes a huge difference. Ryan has quite literally changed my life and I will go back to him whenever I need to work on something that hurts or needs improvement.“

“I went there for physical therapy of my shoulder. Maryam and her team were great and constantly attend to every single patient. She listens carefully to your issue and provides clear instructions and then consistently checks on you to ensure you are doing the exercises correctly. They are very caring. I recommend this facility for physical therapy.“

“Dr. Lin and Dr. Park
Over the summer of 2025, I was assaulted. Among the injuries I sustained, the most significant were skull base fractures and fractures of my orbit, which led the emergency doctors to diagnose me with traumatic optic neuropathy. After consultations with maxillofacial specialists and ophthalmologists, I was told I was legally blind, 20/230, and that this was now my life.
Devastated, I reached out to Dr. Lin who was highly referred by a longtime family friend. She felt he and his team should see me and offer other opinions. While Western medicine may refer to Dr. Lin as a “physical therapist,” I don’t think that language fully defines what he does. At our first meeting, he was gentle, attentive, and deeply aware of my condition. His method is difficult for me to fully articulate, but it was unlike anything the physicians I had seen before had provided.
Dr. Lin created a treatment plan in collaboration with his in-house acupuncturist, Dr. Park, and the two of them treated me in concert. I visited them about once a month. Dr. Park performed acupuncture targeting specific hemispheres they agreed would be beneficial, while Dr. Lin used manual techniques, pressing, pulling, and adjusting different parts of my face and body.
One moment stands out clearly in my memory. As Dr. Park had acupuncture needles placed in the points she selected, Dr. Lin pressed a section of my face under my eye with significant pressure. The instant he released, my nasal passage cleared dramatically. I had been so focused on my vision that I ignored other parts of my body that also needed attention.
This is what impressed me most: their understanding of the interconnectedness of the human body, and the way each system affects the next. Even though I came in focused on a single issue, they recognized that other problems could be developing or stagnating and that treating one area would likely set off a domino effect. They addressed everything collectively rather than isolating one symptom.
Dr. Park also gave me homework: changes to my diet, foods to avoid, preferred cooking methods, and even the temperature of liquids I should consume. Detailed instructions that had never been offered nor had I considered.
Western medicine had only offered me chemical treatments or surgeries to remove or implant. Dr. Lin was one of the few who was relieved I had not had a surgery and was not taking medication. In my most desperate moment, when the reality of vision loss was fresh and overwhelming, they helped keep hope alive.
I am happy to say that I have since improved to 20/40 vision. Slowly, every day I feel a little better. I am not claiming that Dr. Park and Dr. Lin performed miracles. What I do believe is that the treatment they provided stimulated something meaningful in my recovery. Maybe I would have healed to this extent without them, maybe not. But I wholeheartedly feel that their treatment encouraged my body to heal itself.
I am four months removed from the incident, I have my vision back and I feel great. Recovery is not complete, but I am in a place now that my Ophthalmologist told me never to expect.
Thank you to both Dr. Lin and Dr. Park. I could not be more grateful.“

“I feel like I'm getting care above and beyond what I expected. I often spend more than an hour with the therapist. Never have to wait for equipment. Tons of parking.“

“Friendly staff, attentive, and very clean facility. Went in for a hurt cuff rotator and they've worked wonders on it-can't imagine going anywhere else!“

“I went here for treatment for my kneecap and had a great experience. The staff is very professional and kind. Highly recommend!“

“I cannot recommend this group of professionals highly enough. When I came to them, I had a short window of time to rehabilitate my neck after receiving an epidural for a pinched nerve. Carefully, meticulously, and kindly they helped put me back together. It's been two years since my treatments and I have remained fit and pain free. This is the best long term solution I ever invested my time and energy in. Make the appointment and get on the road to recovery.“

“After a hip replacement, I turned to Nick Nosek and his team for physical therapy—and they delivered. With their expert care and encouragement, I went from constant pain to pain-free gardening again! They gave me my life back, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!“
