Physiotherapy Associates

Michelle is an AMAZING physical therapist — I have seen her for both neck pain (after a car accident), then hip/​back pain. The office staff is very nice also, and the facilities are outstanding. There is also plenty of parking available. I can highly recommend this physical therapist office!

I’ve never have done physical therapy before but man oh man oh man… I feel so much better! My body was so much in pain after my accident. I have to say Renee and her team are amazing! Super flexible with your schedule. Always happy and friendly while working. Gets the body back into its right place. I definitely recommend this location. My family and I will forever be coming here.

Wonderful location, very flexible with timings. I am going through a work transition and they have been really nice with me changing flexible schedules. The PT instructor is really good and I highly recommend her intern Laura working there. My back pain has improved a lot. Also they are very sweet and make you feel important and good. Unlike Water and Sports therapy where I had a lot of trouble just setting up an appointment.
Best Wishes,

As their longest standing patient at this location (who migrated from another office to be cared for here) I am happy to report that I am highly satisfied with my services at Physiotherapy Associates, aka Physio. I was an old patient of Dr. Michelle Colman’s when she worked at the La Jolla clinic. I had a re-​occuring injury and found myself back in her care over a year after the completion of my therapy. When I first came in, I could hardly sit still and had bad joint pain all over my body. I started coming once a week and Michelle set up exercises that would help strengthen the surrounding muscles and help stabilize me.
Her manual therapy (massages) are killer and sometimes a little painful, but always in a way that makes you feel good afterwards. She has a great personality and really works hard to foster a personal connection with her patients while remaining professional in all aspects. Michelle also makes sure to devote the maximal amount of time to your care even if you’re late (which I usually tend to be.) Michelle is always focused on getting you better, and makes sure that you are reaching goals along your treatment plan. She’s a great physical therapist and I’m happy I met her.
The physical therapy aides at Physio know what they’re doing and carefully monitor your exercises while you’re doing them. They make sure you are executing the exercises correctly and know how to minimize pain if you’re feeling any.
Courtney, the office secretary is the BOMB. She’s always on top of appointments and insurance benefits. She makes sure that you know when your appointments are and is always super cheery (no matter how early it is.)
Added bonus: they always have my favorite candy there. They’ve even let me make my own coffee when I had a bad headache.
I give this place two thumbs up. I highly recommend it to anyone that wants quality care while being treated like a person rather than just a patient.
