Physical Therapy in Tustin

“Nicole was beyond amazing. She really knew how to stretch me. I could really feel the stretch but it wasn’t over done. I felt great after I left and when I walked I could notice a better stride.“

“Although the time commitment and cost are extensive (for reference my treatment plan is about 9 months 3 times per week 45 minutes per visit and about 14k total), I feel that it is very worth getting my spine back in ideal functioning order. I am about halfway through and recently got an X-ray update to compare to my initial X-rays. It’s very exciting to see the actual change and know that I’m improving myself. I knew that I needed to do more than basic chiropractic care as it hadn’t worked in the past and things just kept getting worse. Spinal Performance takes a holistic approach and each visit includes exercises, chiropractic adjustment, and spinal traction, all tailored to my X-rays and situation. My flareups are less frequent and significantly less severe. I am confident that this will set me up for success in the future and I won’t have to have neck/back surgery. The staff are all very friendly and helpful, and they make me feel welcome.“

“Sean is a professional of the Chiropractic industry. He is extremely knowledgeable and has experience to correct and fix the issues that you are experiencing with a snap of his fingers. I went to him with a history of spine surgery and everything was flaring up again. One 30 minute session, all my fears and anxiety were gone. He told me what is happening and he told me what he was going to do about it - and he did it. Result? Feeling like a fully functioning human being again after a few days of suffering and agony. Amazing Chiro. The best thing about him isn't even his skills and practices. It is how personable and likable he is as not just a Chiropractor but as a person. I highly recommend him to any of you out there, suffering with any pain.“

“I am so grateful for Sarton Physical Therapy! I have had low back pain for many years which has made it difficult to sit, stand, or walk without pain. I have never given up, and after many doctors, tests, injections, regular physical therapy, and acupuncture, I came to Sarton Physical Therapy. What a wonderful change this decision has made!
I was nervous about trying pelvic P.T., and looked at the Sarton website numerous times before I even called for an appointment. Rachel and Jade, who answer the phones, take so much time making patients comfortable and explaining how this lovely office takes care of all of us.
I have had multiple factors that play into my pain journey, which we have slowly unraveled. I have been given the most wonderful care. Besides treatment, I now have a home exercise routine designed specifically for my body, which is helping strengthen the proper muscle groups, as well as home treatments I can use to keep my pain from escalating.
I no longer feel like I am dealing with this on my own. I have a small community that I feel safe with. I am beginning a whole new chapter that didn't seem possible five years ago. Thanks to Sarton Physical Therapy, I am healing. And I have hope.“

“We are so happy we were recommended to Dr Laila & her team at Vitality Medical Center. My son has improved tremendously after only a month of treatment. He was hit by a car 2 years ago. His injuries have gotten worse over time, and eventually because of his limited mobility he had to resort to a wheelchair. He has had many visits to the ER and seen multiple specialists, but Dr Laila is actually helping him get out of the wheelchair and walk, reducing the headaches, reducing his jaundice, sleeping more than 2 hours at a time due to pain and having to go to the bathroom so often, and overall pain. The best part is that he is able to spend more time with family because he is feeling better and not so agitated due to all the pain and inabilities.

“I am currently doing PT & ARP wave therapy at Kessler Family Wellness for the last 2 months. Arp wave therapy has been phenomenal for strength & rehabilitation for me. I have improved use of my left arm and hand which have had nerve damage for over 20 years. I am working with Hiro who is extremely motivating & knowledgable about body mechanics. Both Hiro & William Kessler(owner) keep my motivation high! The overall positive vibe here is infectious?and everyone really cares.

I have been very pleased with every aspect of Kessler Wellness and the great rehab therapy options they offer. From front desk, PT’s, doctors, plus the owner…..they all get a 10 out of 10 in my book. I highly recommend them if you have pain or an injury.“

“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 was assigned a client here with my agency and was able to participate in some of the programs they offer. My first impression once I stepped inside is that they've absolutely invested a lot into the machinery they have here. The bigger equipment reminded me of the HBO show Westworld, and it's a fascinating sight to see. It was also a relief to find out that it is a non-profit organization that takes donations. They have many instructors, therapists, and employees to assist them. Mark, the director, and Orrin were very kind, as well as Deanna and Robert. There's a schedule that the clients follow depending on the day, and the cognitive classes were really insightful and inspiring. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to observe the improvement and rehabilitation of the students in recovery. The only downside was parking since it's sort of packed, and the train station is practically adjacent to the building. Since there was some construction going on, it was a bit difficult to navigate through, but it was my first time visiting such a facility, so it was eye-opening.“
