LaFoot Plus - My brother being evaluated by a certified kinesiologist.

I cannot say enough good things about LaFoot in Berkeley…read more My brother manages a grocery store and is on his feet all day. Recently he started having significant foot pain. As a nurse who has dealt with bone spurs and plantar fasciitis myself, I immediately told him he needed to address it -- both by resting and by investing in proper shoes. I've been trying to convince him to upgrade his footwear for years! I found LaFoot while scrolling Yelp. The name caught my attention, and when I read that it's owned by a physical therapist and staffed with students/residents in orthopedics and foot care, I knew this wasn't just a regular shoe store -- this was going to be different. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed. Parking was easy (even on a busy day), and we were greeted by a tall, slender young man with glasses who introduced himself as a kinesiologist (I'm so sorry I didn't catch his name!). He was professional, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He had my brother remove his shoes and socks, observed his gait by having him walk up and down the hallway, and even demonstrated how my brother's current shoes were too flexible by twisting them. Then he brought out a Brooks shoe and showed us the difference in structure -- it barely twisted at all. He explained why that stability matters. They measured his feet the old-school way with a sizing device to ensure a precise fit. They also noticed that my brother's feet turn slightly inward when he walks, which likely contributed to his pain. What I really appreciated was how they used a skeletal foot model with bands to visually demonstrate what was happening. For visual learners, this was incredibly helpful and made everything make sense. When my brother tried on the recommended shoes, he immediately said, "Oh my God, these make such a huge difference." That alone told me we were in the right place. The exact color he wanted wasn't in stock, but they ordered it and had it shipped to his home within a few days -- seamless process. Yes, the shoes were $154. But when you consider the amount of time he spends standing and walking, and the importance of preventing long-term foot issues, that is absolutely worth it. Your health and comfort are not the place to cut corners. The professionalism, the education, the attention to detail, and the way they truly listened -- both to my brother and to me -- really stood out. This isn't just a shoe store; it's an experience rooted in understanding foot health. We left feeling confident, informed, and genuinely impressed. Highly recommend.

I purchased my everyday shoes from the store. As someone with a foot condition, they understand…read moreyour requirements much better than what you can find on my own. They also have right stability shoes to try that are otherwise hard to find in stores.

Ki is seriously the best! Last year I started having pain in my left hip and lower back (I suspect…read morefrom sitting too much at my desk job). A massage therapist told me I had a tight piriformis muscle but I didn't know exactly how to address it, except with short-term pain relief. Even though I have insurance, I came to Opus Physio because I wanted someone really great, who would work with me one-on-one in every single session. In my initial assessment, Ki quickly zeroed in on the fact that I had a muscle imbalance where my left hip muscles were weaker, causing the piriformis muscle to work too hard and start acting up. Over the next few months, he helped me bring my strength back up on my left side so that it is comparable to the right, and I haven't had any pain since. Ki is super knowledgeable, kind and patient. I felt like I could ask him any question and his explanations were always very thorough. He helped trouble-shoot any other issues that came up as I went through the exercises. When my treatment ended, I felt like I was equipped to maintain the improvements I had made and go on to have a normal workout routine. I highly recommend Ki if you're looking for someone who can diagnose you right away, create a tailored treatment plan and is attentive to you in every session. If I ever have any issues in the future, I will definitely come back to Opus Physio.

Rob Lin is an exceptional physical therapist. Rob and his entire team are patient and welcoming,…read moreand his 1-on-1 work is phenomenal. If you have the option, I cannot recommend The Technique enough. I knew when I signed up that working with him would be an investment, and it is one I am so glad I made. I came in with an injury that I have been struggling with for 4 months. I had been seeing another PT but I had repeated setbacks during my recovery. I was in consistent pain and I wasn't improving. In 3 weeks or so, Rob has gotten me to a place where I can function again and even push my physical limits. He is kind, reassuring, and his hands-on work has consistently made an obvious impact. Immediately after getting off the table, I feel less pain and improved stability that last. His work on me has allowed me to push further during session and during at-home exercises, which he's tailored based on my feedback. TLDR: I've already recommended Rob and The Technique PT to friends struggling with injuries and would urge anyone to book a free in-person consultation. Rob is amazing and I look forward to every session. I can't thank him and his team enough. -Raya (she/they)

She was very welcoming and helpful in working out a good time to come in for an initial consultation. When I came in Deena asked me about the injury and listened patiently to my "theories" and concerns about it. She then suggested several exercises and movements for the finger and the reasons behind them, many of which were brand new to me and fascinating - e.g. that scar tissue can sometimes fuse with tendons but that carefully directed massage can unfuse them (had No idea...). I had forgotten to mention in our initial phone call that I also had a groin pull and she again gave me some thoughtful suggestions to follow for that. (We had a shorter session because I had arrived quite a bit late (!) and her next appt was waiting). The useful information, and perhaps Most importantly, peace of mind I received in talking to her was invaluable and "would" have been well worth the hourly rate but when I inquired about the best way to pay her she informed me that she was "gifting" the session to me - a very unexpected and generous act. All I could say was that I would "pay it forward"... (perhaps it goes against discretion/etiquette to share that Deena has a positive and real manner, she listens easily and gives thoughtful, in-depth and informed advice. I absolutely recommend her.

This is my first time having physical therapy. I have found the team at select PT to be very…read moreefficient and warm. My therapist Kristin Overton is particularly knowledgeable and personable. She provides very clear instructions in the clinic and for home, with demonstrations (for home exercises, there are printouts that include frequency and duration). The time is split between the PT and assistants who guide me through exercises, while Kristin keeps an eye on me. With her, I get massage (yay!), more exercises and periodic assessments. The atmosphere is relaxed but professional. Best of all, I'm seeing results!

Not sure where the good reviews are coming from. They have one of the very worst front desk…read moremanagers I have ever spoken to taking calls. Worse yet, he made numerous mistakes with my billing that resulted in them sending me to collections instead of charging the alternate card I put on file with them (more than once, mind you). Apparently the same jerk at the front desk with zero empathy just never bothered to do that and sent the file to collections. I was in the hospital at the time due to a more severe back injury than the one I came in with a couple months before, so of course I wasn't receiving whatever messages they were sending for a $45 bill. The therapists there at the time don't even work there anymore. When I called back to schedule more appts after getting out of the hospital, the same guy told me he would check what I needed to do to clear up the bill and schedule a next appt. Two weeks later I still had not received a call back to tell me anything, and when I called again it was the same attitude and lack of empathy on the other end of the phone. Now he's saying I needed to provide proof of payment (despite the collector not providing a way to pay on the web or in any way that provides a receipt). Instead of doing what any other professional organization would have done (call the collector and confirm it was paid), he told me that they can't schedule anything without proof of payment, which is impossible to provide when you paid over the phone. Of course he hadn't bothered to tell me that or call me back to let me know before I paid, I was now I gems that I needed to call them back and ask them to send some receipt. Of course by now the letter was shredded so I have nothing to go on. This egoistic creep didn't do his job and then expects patients to jump through extra hoops just to receive care in a cramped clinic (where he openly talks sh*t about them once they walk out the door or hang up the phone). What a terrible excuse for a PT clinic. Such a shame, it's so close to home, but I don't know how I can trust this place when they continue to employ uncaring people with no attention to detail or common sense. Just don't waste your time and money at this location. Find a clinic where people with heart work. Not someone who doesn't remember when he lost whatever passion he may have had for his work.
