My mom goes here for her sciatica lower back pain. All of the staff are friendly and very helpful. I appreciate very one here for their kindness to my mom. I would definitely recommend this place for any of your physical therapy needs. read more

I have been going to movement for life off and on for the last three years or so for neck and shoulder issues. From the first visit, they have been very attentive to listen to my concerns and then tailor the therapy plan from there. I have nothing but positive things to say about Katie,Brandon, Thui and all the rest of the hands on staff. The receptionists are friendly and easy to work with when canceling and re scheduling appointments. Most importantly, I've seen real progress in the time that I've been going for therapy. They're the best! read more

My PT was Alanna and she super nice and helpful with answering all my questions and providing me with home exercises via the app. I also worked with Keith and he was great as well. The entire staff was pleasant and inviting. I highly recommend! read more

Kailyn is the absolute best in her field, she treated my back pain and sciatica with exercises on site and sent me home with paperwork for more exercises. She is tiny but strong and makes you feel comfortable while explaining what she is doing. In her free time she volunteers for St. Mary's football team and one of the high school football teams in Lodi as a physical therapist. All the staff I encountered from the receptionists to the therapists were friendly and made you feel welcome, I would highly recommend this business. read more

The rude person I had was absolutely rude af just completely blunt and rude. Didn't care about my pain, kept telling me about previous patients it dealt with. Wasn't trying to help me. Told me I was a walking lawsuit because it asked me to do something I told it I couldn't do at the moment. It was just an horrible experience is the reason I will never go back or recommend to anyone and I'll be letting all my social platforms know as well. They really need to evaluate people before they hire people, train them on how to just be a person and remind them what their job is because it almost went bad I held back because I wanted to cuss it out and leave but I stayed the better person. read more

The physical therapists are very helpful and nice. One receptionist however is really rude. I missed an appointment and she got rude like she owned the place or like she was the physical therapist. Everyone else who works there are great. The receptionist is a short younger lady with glasses. read more

The staff and the physical therapist were great! My physical therapist was Brandon and he took his time with me & explained everything. The PT aides were kind & gave good service. read more

I have had surgery and been unable to go to Movement for Life! I so miss all the people working there. I can't wait until I can go back! They helped me after I had back surgery. The office people were so helpful and kind. Even when I would have a day when I would call and say I couldn't come. The caregivers were so helpful in getting me to be able sit and get up. I can now squat to get into my bottom drawers. If you need help after a surgery. This is the best place to go. I am 77 years old and have been to a few places. So take my word and come to Movement for Life! read more

I've been going to physical therapy for several weeks now at Central Valley Physical Therapy. I now have a progressive increase in range of motion and the vast reduction in pain at several key areas. The education that I received explained why one area of injury and pain is synergistically related to other injuries on my body. Therefore I need to strengthen more than one area of my body and require therapy on specific muscles on my leg in order to heal my bad knee. The long and short of it is that I've gained strength, reduced pain and learned how to walk correctly. The staff is wonderful at every visit, my appts conducted always on time, and the physical therapy always provides positive results. read more

Movement for Life Physical Therapy - After workout review - Physical Therapy Near Me - Stockton, California

We had to take our 2 year old there for some physically therapy, since she was toe-walking. Brandy Leone is the physical therapist that worked with us, and she is phenomenal. Our daughter is young and also autistic, and not a lot of people know how to respond to that or deal with it, and it never even phased her. She worked our daughter's sessions around her needs, and was always very enthusiastic and excited when she would see results. You can tell she actually loves what she does and cares about her clients. The front desk staff always greeted our daughter by name and were always kind and helpful. The facility is clean and from my observations, the other PTs are supportive and encouraging to their clients as well. We've had to stop going for now due to scheduling but we plan to go back to her as soon as things settle. read more

This is an awesome place for recovery I had a total knee replacement in January and I didn't think I'd ever get back to normal but the therapist here have been awesome read more

The staff was amazing, they are all nice and care about treating you properly. I did physical therapy for my lower body, and now I feel like myself again read more

I must say I've never had a bad day at movement for life starting in the front office, Robin, MariaNella and Laura are all great. I had trouble getting my sessions approved and they tried daily for weeks and I finally was able to start my much needed sessions again. A big shout out and a great big Thank You. I have never seen any of the physical therapists or their assistants in a bad mood ever indicating it's a great place to work in return the patients are greeted by name with kindness, compassion and true caring on how your recovery is coming along. They play fun games throughout the year and hand out raffle tickets and prizes which helps you take your mind of your pain for a moment or two. Thank you again Movement for Life for everything thing, Sincerely Kelly Roe read more

I just finished several treatments for a shoulder impingement and I though I have never left a review for anything I had to leave a review for this place so anyone needing physical therapy will know how well I was treated. Everyone, from the ladies at the front desk, the aids and the therapists were all great. Everyone was so nice and really caring. I hope I never need PT again but if I do this is where I will insist on going. To everyone at Central Valley Physical Therapy on Hammer lane, thank you!!!! read more

The team here is great! Susie up front is very welcoming! All the aides that have helped me are very friendly. Katie my therapist is very kind, warm, understanding, and she explains everything to me as I'm doing my exercises. She also helped me understand the process of my therapy and what I'm going through. Everyone here is so patient and they make you feel relaxed. This is my second time coming here and I recommend this place to anybody that needs to see a physical therapist. read more

I have gone here for several injuries from shoulders to broken ankles to arthritis. They have an aide that stays with you & keeps you moving through the exercises. Brian Barrett was one of the last physical therapists I worked with. He was professional & challenged me to strengthen my ankle. Now I can squat or get on my toes without any issues. I like the written & video exercises he provided me so that I could keep working at home between visits. There were new protocols for the pandemic. I saw that the staff was very careful to sterilize all equipment used. I will continue going there if the need arises. read more

Just finished a dozen or more sessions over a 3 - 4 week period. I have felt very well taken care of by CVPT's team of therapists. Each therapist that worked with me was encouraging while providing me with after-care skills to incorporate into my daily routine. This is a personable, educated and competent group of professionals dedicated to their craft and the clients they serve. The staff here have made a positive impact, not only on my recovery, but instilling me with the confidence that I can continue what they have taught me. MB read more

This is my second experience for PT with this business. I needed PT after knee surgery back in 2016 and was sent here when it was called Central Valley Physical Therapy. The staff was courteous, caring, and thorough. After having total hip replacement surgery, I was again referred to this location and found that there were still familiar faces from my last visits in 2016. The name had changed to Movement for Life Physical Therapy. I was assigned to Brandy Leone who was knowledgeable, courteous, kind, and very helpful. She evaluated me and explained the plan she had for me that would give me the best possible outcome. Her team was very thorough, knowledgeable, positive, helpful, friendly, and the facility was kept clean and sanitized. The staff observed COVID19 protocols with masks, social distancing, cleaning surfaces, etc. The front desk, aides, and therapists were all friendly and called me by name. Thank you Brandy, Thuy, Keith, and Brian for your help, diligence, and encouragement. I highly recommend Movement for Life if you need physical therapy! read more

Thuy Mai, is so kind so thorough just absolutely wonderful the best physical therapist I've ever had I recommend her five stars highly. Bonnie W. read more

I can't say enough good things about Central Valley Physical Therapy. They are VERY conscientious about keeping everything clean. I can see how seriously they take it as I do my exercises and receive my therapy. Not only do they take cleanliness seriously but they are a very caring and compassionate group of people. I wouldn't consider going anywhere else for my physical therapy needs. read more

March, 2019 I ruptured both patellar tendons. After surgery I was referred to Central Valley Physical Therapy due to their proximity to my work and home. From the first visit I knew I was in good hands. Alex, was a true professional in my initial review, helping me understand my current abilities and setting realistic goals. Within about 3 weeks (6 visits) I was making amazing progress. The exercises they recommended for home were convenient and I actually performed them some of the time. As I got to know and work with more of the therapists and assistants I truly felt like part of bigger family. Chip & Brian B were always a pleasure to work with but my biggest Shout Out goes to Brandy. When I was put in her care she upgraded my routine (which I thought was fairly challenging) to what I called "big boy" therapy. I was now really being challenged to the extent my knees felt like they couldn't handle it but in fact it is just what I needed and she helped me achieve a long term strength and level of success I never thought possible. Thank you Central Valley Physical Therapy. I will always recommend you, and I hope I never have to visit you again (but it would be a blessing if necessary). read more

Went to East Hammer lane by Gym Stars. Best place I've ever been to. Plenty of knowledgeable staff, large gym, well lighted. The assistants are well trained and so nice. read more

I've been seen at this physical therapy location for several years for recovery from multiple surgeries/injuries (hip back, and neck). This facility far exceeds the quality of therapy that I've received at other places that I've been to in Stockton. Natalie is my physical therapist, and she is the best!! She has great expertise in manipulating the muscles and tendons for pain relief and healing. All of the aides are very positive and friendly as they lead me through the exercise routines. read more

The entire team at CVPT, staff, aides, and therapists work well together. I felt my action plan was adhered to in a caring and very professional way. read more

They need to learn the meaning of appointment times my sons appointment was at 11:45 we arrived 30 min early to fill out paper work we finished and by noon still waiting. They told me they give you that time to fill out paper work appointment is really at 12 ! Well then don't schedule not for 11:45 and tell me to show up at least 15 min early. I had to say I was going to reschedule to finally get back at 12:10. I told them don't tell someone appointment times if that is not it. If people show up later because of paper work that is on them if they need to reschedule but for people who show up when they are supposed to it is not ok. But the only thing is that the physical therapist was extremely knowledgeable and worked well with my son. If it wasn't for that I would not have given any stars. read more

Maybe this place has some good therapists but not Brandy, the one I got. I was referred by my Dr. I expected to be taught some exercises to do and some to do at home to strengthen my muscles. Well, that did not happen at all, not one single exercise. I paid for an hour. She wanted to pretend she was Dr. Phil and then not listen to my answers and didn't ask questions that made sense. Her questions were not at all related to PT. She asked me what I wanted her to do for me. I asked her what options I had. She said she can't tell me, I have to tell her. So I asked if she was referring to exercises because that is her forte and she should be telling me and have a plan. She said it wasn't exercises, so I asked her to clarify what she is talking about if I am at PT and we aren't discussing exercises. She wouldn't give me an answer, she said I had to tell her. OMG!!! WTF, she made no sense at all. I'd already told her what hurt and what I can't do, plus she had my Dr's referral. She then said if nothing hurt you right now what would you wish you could do. I was fed up with her stupid questions so I answered that I'd like to win the lottery. Then she said she didn't mean to be rude but that I am not ready for PT. WTH, when someone prefaces a sentence by saying they don't mean to be rude, that is exact what they intend on being. She immediately went on to say that she was going to send my Dr. a letter stating that I am not ready for PT. Then she told me I might as well go home early. I paid for an hour and got 35 minutes with NO refund. If I wasn't ready for PT my Dr. wouldn't have sent me and I wouldn't have showed up. Brandy is the one who wasn't ready to do her job as a Physical Therapist. If you go there be sure to ask who your appt. will be with, and make sure it is NOT with Brandy. I called to complain and asked for the manager. A guy, I forget his name, called me the next day and I relayed my complaint. He asked me if I wanted to talk to Brandy again. Really, WTH, it was like talking to someone in another universe the first time, why would I want to deal with her again? One star is too many for Brandy but that's the least I could dole out. read more

I highly recommend Central Valley Physical Therapy, as you can see.The people that work here are awesome. I was back for my 4th type of Physical Therapy, and again, I am so impressed with the care I received there. The people that work there are great! My PT Alex had started a few months ago working there, and he was fantastic! They are all so kind there. I always feel like I'm back home when I go there, from the ladies in the front, to the office, to the aides, to the PT's, and of course the Mgr. Chip, they are my favorite people. I feel like I have lifelong friends. read more

I've needed PT 3 times in my life knees 2006 and 2012 and now for rotator cuff. The staff has always been welcoming, show concern, and have in this session diagnosed what my Surgeon missed because they spend 2-3 times a week with me they know my body better. Not only the Therapist are kind the aides are terrific. They don't let you get away with anything. Also their monthly thyme and game playing add to the enjoyment of being there. The best part was when I tweaked my shoulder and my mobility was way down, my Doctor said "this is the best your going to get." The next day I saw Chip Hanker and he said "nope we're not stopping here" figured out what the problem was and now I'm twice where I was and getting better everyday! Thanks to all of you at Central Valley Physical Therapy!, read more

I highly recommend this Physical Therapy Center. As a Registered Nurse I have seen many different PT departments and now as a patient I can honestly say they are the Best. Chip Hanker and his team are Very Professional and well qualified to assist your individual needs. They have readjusted therapies to personalize my back pain and have assisted in my being pain free. Lauren and Brian have been a God Send. Thank you all. The place is very clean well ,organized and parking is not a problem. read more

Friendly staffs, clean place, and caring people. My physical therapist D'Arcy is very knowledgeable with the human body and understand the mechanics of each muscle and how they are used. She is patient with my limitations from injury and knows which exercise I need to get back to full recovery. I would recommend this place. read more

I was sent to Central Valley Physical Therapy to help with a torn rotator cuff. Juliette Nguyen was assigned as my therapist. Ms. Nguyen is a very cordial and courteous individual. Ms. Nguyen did an outstanding job. She answered all questions without hesitation and provided tools to use at home. As a matter of fact, all the assistants working at this facility are hard working. Sometimes it gets very busy and they rush to keep up but they never forget to provide quality service. Also Susie at the front desk is excellent at her job. I recommend this facility to everyone. read more
