After extensive research on Google, Yelp, and through word of mouth, trying to find a place that…read moreoffers a truly comprehensive running analysis; along with actionable solutions to address any issues....we found Athletic Lab, and it exceeded our expectations. The assessment was for my 15 1/2-year-old son, who runs long distance for his high school cross country and track & field team (3-mile, 1600m, and 3200m). Since he is still actively growing and had been experiencing some pain under both knees, we wanted to evaluate his form, strength, and any areas needing improvement. Our goal was to help him stay injury-free, improve efficiency, and avoid wasting energy as he continues developing as a runner. From the online intake form to the follow-up communication by email and phone, the entire process was professional, efficient, and seamless. The location is a little tucked away in a quiet office area, but there are 5-6 parking spots and we've always found a space available (a huge plus in LA). The spots are a bit tight, but parking alone is a win. The facility itself is incredible: bright, open, modern, and aesthetically designed, with high ceilings and a large garage door that opens for fresh air (a big contrast to some clinics that can feel stuffy). It's equipped with all the latest technology and everything you'd expect from a top-tier sports performance facility. Athletic Lab PT also has private meeting rooms, two well-stocked restrooms with thoughtful essentials like hair ties and deodorant, a shower for those needing to head to work after a session, a mini fridge stocked with hydration and snacks, and a comfortable front seating area for parents waiting during appointments...as I have to sit and wait for my son when he has a session. Dr. Alley Gray performed my son's running assessment, and she was fantastic. She measured his mobility and flexibility, conducted a detailed treadmill gait analysis with photos taken from every angle, and tested his strength in multiple ways. Afterward, we received a thorough report outlining her findings, along with clear recommendations on how to address the issues and an estimated treatment plan. The overall goal was to optimize my son's running mechanics, power, and efficiency so he can stay healthy and continue pursuing his goal of running in college. Dr. Alley Gray is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and understanding of my son's needs. He genuinely enjoys working with her, which says a lot. We've been extremely happy with our experience at Athletic Lab PT and highly recommend them to any serious athlete looking to improve performance and prevent injuries.

I'm always in search of a GOOD physical therapist and trust me (not bragging) I have been to ALOT…read more You could call me accident prone and or a glutton for pain but I always seem to have some type of nagging injury. Well, that was true until I found Athletic Lab. Dr. Lauren and Dr. Alyssa are both amazing physical therapists. I see Lauren on a regular basis and she has helped me eliminate or reduce pain with a recurring hip issue (funny story here) and some knee issues from improper heel strike when running. In addition, I own a gym in Santa Monica called Sweat 60 (shameless plug). I send all my clients to Athletic Lab for any issues we are not able to solve. They work in step with our programming to make sure our clients are back to 100% in the least amount of time. If you are looking for a solid team of physical therapists that actually get results fast and effectively, Athletic Lab is the place to go in Santa Monica.

When someone loves what they do and truly wants to help it makes a huge difference. I also had some massages from Moon which were extremely beneficial. Released all the tension and made the pain go away.

Given my background in "rehab" I am easily able to recognize excellence vs. those therapists going thru the motions. Momentum Physical Therapy is at the top of its game. Upon entering Momentum Physical Therapy in West Los Angeles I was impressed by the open space, welcoming receptionists, and positive energy among the therapists, assistants, and clients. Having had the chance to work with several Physical therapists and assistants, I enthusiastically recommend Tanya and her staff. They are all skilled at setting realistic goals and incorporating a supportive home program. These 2 aspects of therapy empower their clients to reach their highest level.

David Gasster goes above and beyond to provide personalized care and attention to each of his physical therapy patients. His expertise in physical therapy, coupled with his compassionate nature, makes him a standout healthcare provider in the Los Angeles area.

His positive attitude and encouragement motivated me to push myself to heal in my recovery journey. I highly recommended anyone in need of physical therapy services in Los Angeles to contact David Gasster at Momentum Physical Therapy. His commitment to excellence and genuine care for his patients set him apart as a top-notch physical therapist. I can't say enough on how David helped me recover from shoulder injuries to both my right and left shoulder. He's a rock star and without his expertise I would still be in pain.

I went to Casie for my first appointment recently and within minutes it was clear that she is an…read moreabsolute expert in the field. I'd previously gone to a more popular, chain-like therapy location in Los Angeles for postpartum therapy and found it to be quite disappointing. It wasn't until my appointment with Casie that it became clear why I had a feeling the other location wasn't doing much for me -- the differences between the two were night and day! If you have given birth and are feeling like you need someone to confirm if you have diastasis recti or if your core recovery is going well or to even check on your scar tissue, book book book your appointment. I am so relieved to have finally had someone answer my questions accurately and I look forward to my next appointment. I cannot recommend her services enough!

I had my first appointment two weeks ago and I was in a lot of pain before I was worked on. I was assessed my Matt and he was so thorough! My next appointment was with Jim who worked on me along with Jamaar who went through the exercises needed that day. Again fantastic. I had a fantastic massage with their independent massues and she took great care of my needs. Excellent! If I could rate Matrix 6 stars, I would. :)

Matrix consistently hires the best people: the front-desk team is always friendly and helpful, and Diane, Rebecca's assistant, is excellent.

Do not see Dr. Karlin. NEVER have I walked into an office and felt so unwelcome nor unable to ask…read morequestions without getting ridiculed. At one point, she actually laughed out loud at a question I asked about parasites, saying "are you serious?!" I cannot believe I spent so much money to be shamed for the questions I was asking. On the medical side, no bloodwork was taken before prescribing me the medications I was pressured into buying as she rushed out the door "or else I won't get better fast." Again, no time for questions, and I was charged an additional $200 bill on top of the already expensive appointment. One of these items I bought was a gut repair powder that had Maltodextrin in it, which can cause damage to the intestine. Another item contained aluminum and silver (that I was supposed to ingest). I got a needle stapled into my ear without any real explanation of how to care for it or what it was doing there. The whole process was extremely uncomfortable and after speaking about her to my other doctors, she should not be allowed to practice medicine.

She goes above and beyond, she truly cares, and she's invested in her patient's healing and well-being. You feel that in every session and email. She's so thorough, asks lots of questions, and pieces together like a puzzle what's going on with your body. I have immense gratitude for Dr. Karlin and can't recommend her enough.

This place will absolutely change your life…read more I first went to Physical Therapyworks 15 years ago - my back was killing me because I sit at a desk all day. After 10 sessions, my back pain was completely gone and they'd given me a list of stretching exercises that I have done twice a day every day since then. I went back to Physical Therapyworks a few weeks ago. I'm 65 now and my lower back aches every morning when I get up. I was afraid this would be my permanent condition. But Michelle diagnosed me and showed me new stretches I needed to add to my daily routine. Then I had 10 sessions with Brit, who made sure I was doing the stretches correctly and getting to the right muscle groups. 6 weeks later, my back pain is gone and I feel like myself again. This place is truly transformative. I can't recommend it highly enough. Thank you, Michelle and Brit, you have changed my life.
