After a shoulder injury, and encouragement from a physiatrist, I signed up for a package with Prehab Physical Therapy. It also helps that one of my friends, who happens to be a physical therapist, also referred me to this clinic. He shared great things about this place, so the bar was already set high. My therapist Dorian was engaging, patient and incredibly knowledgeable. In addition to assigning practical, doable and strength-building workouts each week, he explains why they're important and how they fall under the program. I thought I knew how to work out, as I've been lifting for almost a decade now, and it was all undone after just a few short but impactful months with Dorian. I quickly learned I had to relearn most of what I knew, and I appreciated it. Before I wrap up this review, I do want to highlight the office manager, Marisa, who was such a delight at every interaction. She made scheduling a breeze and was always so awesome to deal with. I always walked away with a smile after interacting with Marisa, who genuinely knows how to put patients at ease. Note: Unfortunately, Prehab Physical Therapy was out of network with my medical insurance. However, Marisa provided a superbill after each visit, which made insurance claim submissions easy! I am walking away with a stronger appreciation of form in my workouts and a new profound respect for stretching. If you're looking for a knowledgeable therapist and a modern clinic, check out Prehab Physical Therapy. read more

I come a long way to my appointments here, but it's so worth it! Front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. I work specifically with Dorian and he's incredibly knowledgeable and has made a huge difference in my mobility after just a couple sessions. I've seen many physical therapists since my surgery and other sports injuries, and I love the interface they have for at home PT. The videos are super helpful and it's nice that they put your routine on a link for you. Pricing is on par with other high quality PT places I've been to, but you really get what you pay for. Would totally recommend if you have any mobility/surgical or sports issues! read more

I had high expectations based on recommendations from friends, but my experience at Prehab Guys was disappointing. While the intake staff was friendly, I found the process to be misleading. I specifically requested certain PTs but was repeatedly steered toward one in particular--who happened to be a newer employee. It felt more like a business tactic than a patient-centered approach. This clinic seems to operate based on who you know rather than what's best for the patient. If you're not familiar with the inner workings, you may end up with whatever option they decide is best for them, not necessarily for you. I appreciate the positive experiences my friends have had, but unfortunately, mine did not align with that. read more

I found Prehab through Instagram. I followed them for an year before deciding to pay them a visit. I was suffering from a foot injury that was incorrectly assessed by a few orthopedic surgeons for a few years. Arash, the PT I met during my initial evaluation, asked me a few questions before figuring out what exactly was wrong with my foot. It's been two months since I committed to five visits with Arash and I'm excited about the progress I've made. I have a few months left of PT but I have no doubt in my mind that I'll fully recover. If you're serious about being healthy again, do yourself a favor and visit Prehab. True experts of their craft. read more

Prehab Physical Therapy - consultation room - Physical Therapy Near Me - Culver City, California

As a discerning and skeptical ultra-runner and busy executive, finding a physical therapist who meets my standards is no easy feat. Enter Craig, a true expert in his field. Craig's programming and our weekly 1:1 sessions are a model of efficiency, catering to my demanding schedule without compromising on results. His extensive professional knowledge, coupled with his own personal experience as an athlete, sets him apart. But what truly distinguishes Craig is his genuine care for his clients. His approach strikes the perfect balance between pragmatism and encouragement. I like to beat up my body pretty good and over this past year, Craig has helped me rehab and strengthen my body and we completed three 100K mountain races in our work together in 2023- and we have bigger goals in 2024! What initially brought me to Craig were some bad knee, ankle and calf pain/injuries and I have noticed significant improvements over our time together. If you're seeking a physical therapist who will help get you healthy and strong and who blends expertise, efficiency, and empathy, look no further. Craig is truly the best and I'm very grateful to know him. Last thing I want to call out is I have been working with Craig specifically but the entire Prehab crew are exceptional! read more

Monica helped me train so that I felt no pain while running my first half marathon! It's amazing how the training program she gave me and the exercises we went over weekly improved my ability to run and be active - I've always had knee and hip pain while running and hiking but now, it's basically non-existent! Thank you Prehab! read more

I can't recommend Prehab Physical Therapy enough, especially after having been to several other PT places for my ankle sprain. They are not like other PT places that just get patients in/out and keep churning out the same weekly exercises. This is a personalized experience; tailored for you. Craig is amazing - he is detailed and thorough, and continuously adapts the rehab program to keep it challenging and appropriate. He is helpful in asking the right questions, takes measurements to evaluate progress, strength and mobility. The patient portal has the at home exercises that includes super helpful videos so you can see the exercise and understand the purpose, as well as the instructions for sets and reps. This is a working document/program that he continuously adjusts for increased difficulty based on progress of recovery. He has helped me tremendously, beyond rehabbing my injury but also helping me work on overall strength, conditioning and athleticism. Since they do not accept insurance, you will need to pay out of pocket by purchasing one of their session packs (5 or 10 pack), and then you can submit for reimbursement of PT benefits you have through your insurance company. The reimbursement process for me was a breeze since the Prehab superbill invoices have all the diagnostic codes listed out, which helped it go smoothly. Their space is also beautiful - super clean and modern, with all the equipment they need. If you are in need of physical therapy, give them a try! read more

I've been seeing Adele for years! I have gone from hopeless to pain free thanks to ADELE! I was experiencing some pain between my shoulder blades in May 2019 and went to get an MRI I had 3 bulging discs with spinal stenosis due to repeated bAd posture. I'm 36 and my job consists of computer work mostly. When I first came in I was in the worst mood ever so much in pain and feeling so frustrated with it feeling so low and fearful that I would never be ok or normal again. Adele was patient and reliable and my rock through the whole process. She took the most vulnerable part of my body and massaged it with her hands to heal me! Over time I've seen other PTs ask for her to massage them so she must be the best. I've had full on nervous breakdowns because it was just all too much to keep going and she was there for me. Some days I just needed to smile and she helped me get through another day. Adele formulated a plan for me to get stronger and to stretch, always conscious of my pain levels and injury symptoms. She gave me physical feedback by putting my body right into the correct place including my head and didn't lose focus ever. She's 100% there in your space and giving you her all. Now I can say I'm back to my old self with flare ups here and there. I'm almost done with PT and she's exposed me to Pilates which is fun and difficult. We still work through the regular stuff but alternate. I'm super grateful for her help and she saved my life. Also the Pre-hab APP! Adele's husband does the most to make that app the most amazing thing it can be I've already had 2 friends sign up and love it The front desk who helps schedule appts are also rockstars and amazing. read more

I must admit I was skeptical of PT. I thought it was for people who were out of shape/de conditioned. But my company had a payment allowance and it was prescribed for my hip so I thought I'd give it a try. Honestly it worked so well that I didn't even need to do all 10 sessions. The sessions were really tailored to my specific problem, and the exercises easy to do/fit into a busy schedule. And they worked! My therapist was Dorian St. Danic who was great but I'm sure they all are. They also make great social media videos :) read more

I first worked with Adelle earlier this year when she was with another physical therapy company. The minute she moved to Prehab PT, I followed. She's extremely helpful in breaking down moves, how the muscles connect and genuinely loves her clients. I had low back pain for 20 plus years, and after seeing Adelle twice a week for three months, I'm pain-free. Seriously! My once-a-month check-in sessions have been great because she continues to show me the proper way of doing exercises while making sure I enjoy the process as well. It's amazing how good she, and the Prehab team are. I highly recommend you check them out if you have any pain - whatsoever. You'll be happy you did! read more

I've been coming to Prehab for the past couple months and I could not be happier with the care I've been receiving from Dorian St. Danic. I started running in May and started experiencing nagging knee irritation from an old knee injury. After signing up to run my first marathon, I realized I needed to make sure my knee could handle all the stress I would be putting on it. Dorian is incredibly thorough and has immense knowledge and understanding when it comes to recognizing the dysfunction and choosing the appropriate corrective exercises to get you stronger, stable, and ultimately moving or performing better! After working with him over the past month I've chosen to push my limits a bit sooner and run my first half marathon next month because my knee feels that great! The office is always so welcoming and makes scheduling, checking out, and accessing my exercises and details through the portal so easy. So happy to have found these guys! read more

After developing an injury in the gym, I spent so long frustrated with confusion as to why I wasn't feeling better over time. After finding Prehab Physical Therapy, I was lucky enough to work with Dr. Dorian Saint-Danic who not only helped me identify my rotator cuff injury but set me on a path towards recovery. I had never done physical therapy before, and was a bit nervous as to the process. Dr. Dorian and the entire team at Prehab were extremely friendly and quickly made a comfortable environment for me. I was able to benefit from my sessions in person, and the at home program was extremely easy to use with guided videos and descriptions. My rehab process was very smooth thanks to Dr. Dorian's willingness to answer questions and provide detail through each session and beyond. As an extremely visual person, he took the time to be patient and communicative to ensure I had a safe space to learn to rebuild strength in my shoulder. Finally after months of not having answers prior to Prehab, he was able to help me rebuild confidence and strength for my rotator cuff and overall shoulder health. I have made such significant improvements and couldn't be happier and more thankful to Dr. Dorian and the team! read more

Prehab has done wonders for my knee, after being stuck without progress for a while. Everyone is always incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about physical therapy. Adelle has gone above and beyond to get me back on the court and in my sport. I would recommend anyone to come here! read more

Prehab Physical Therapy is amazing! Every single person here is very kind and incredibly knowledgeable. I am so grateful to Adelle for guiding me post ACL surgery rehab. From the start she has been focused on helping me reach my personal goals of returning to snowboarding and climbing. The 1:1 feedback is awesome. Her tailored approach has helped me feel confident and see results. Half the battle is overcoming the mental barriers... I feel more myself! Adelle also created "ACL Club" - basically a weekly group PT session with other ACL-ers. This was a blast! It was so helpful to meet others going through the same... and feel safe challenging each other and ourselves. Shout out to Dorian who was awesome too! Nothing about ACL rehab is easy, but Adelle and Prehab PT has made this "jour-knee" much more pleasant and fun! GO here! read more

I recently started running to train for a 5k and as someone with 0 history of running, I really struggled with shin splints. Mike gave me great exercises to improve my calf muscles that I can easily do at home, on my own. Everyone who works here is so well educated and passionate, not to mention the clinic is such a vibe! read more

I have been seeing Craig at Prehab physical therapy for years now and he is by far the best. As an athlete it's important to keep my body working properly and working with Craig allows me to continue to play the sport I love without injury. Can't say enough good things about Prehab! read more

Great trainers, really good facility, and a very helpful app to help you work at home.

I would definitely recommend Prehab PT! I came across them via instagram and started to follow them. The content on their page and the PTs in the videos seem very knowledgeable and provide useful and detailed information. Thus I decided to make my initial evaluation to get help with my mid back/shoulder pain. Everything from making the appointment to getting directions to their facility was very easy. On my first appointment, I saw Dr. Dorian. He helped me understand what was causing my pain and throughout the entire time, he explained everything in detail. At the end, he gave me some exercises to help me alleviate my pain. So far, the exercises have been helping and it's helpful having a visual such as videos and detailed instructions to follow along. I am very glad I found Prehab PT! Thank you for all the help thus far Dr. Dorian and staff! read more

If your physical therapist has the designation CSCS, they are certified through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) as a specialist in improving athletic performance. Physical therapists are identified by: their name and their professional license ("PT"), and the highest degree they've obtained, which is typically either a Master's of Physical Therapy ("MPT" or "MSPT") or a Doctorate of Physical Therapy ("DPT"). My therapist, Arash Maghsoodi from [P]rehab has a Doctorate of Physical Therapy, which is the highest degree level for physical therapy, with certification for Strength and Conditioning as a specialist in improving athletic performance, making him a Doctor of Physical Therapy. I am grateful that my Orthopedic Doctor, Emily Miller of UCLA had [P]rehab on a list of therapists to choose from. After calling a few facilities who didn't match up for various reasons, I called [P]rehab and without hesitation, I was given an appointment. Upon arriving, I noticed that [P]rehab maintains high hygiene standards. The facility was clean and organized. After Arash interviewed me about my injury, he had a thorough understanding of my problem, complaints, and goals. Arash performed hands-on manual therapy and corrective exercises that focused on the underlying problem. He measured the injured location, performed soft tissue mobilizations and manual lymph drainage, he demonstrated a few exercises and guided me until I was able to perform each one adequately. I understood that I would have to put in the work and that the road to recovery was not a straight one. Nevertheless, seeing the USC Diplomas on the wall assured me that I would receive proper therapy and I would have the best chance of healing correctly. After my first appointment, I did not feel like I could be getting more from my physical therapist. Arash was informative and helped me understand my injury and explained why he selected the exercises he chose. Part of his therapy is "consistency" and [P]rehab offers an avenue to its patients via a follow-up video of the assigned exercises. Just as he said, I received the email with a link to the videos. All the above along with their professionalism made it clear that I was not just another number on the schedule, which helped me decide to continue my therapy with them. I did have one concern because [P]rehab is not an in-network facility for me with Anthem PPO. However, getting proper therapy is my main goal so paying up front and receiving a bill to submit to my insurance was no longer an issue. My progress was consistent from the second I chose [P]rehab. With each adaptation, I received a new video for my treatment. At all times, I had one-on-one time with Arash. Do I recommend [P]rehab?, ABSOLUTELY! read more

After a stalled recovery from an achilles tear Michael Lau has definitely helped me start to see some improvement. Still got a long way to go but I would definitely recommend. The program and follow up has been second to none. read more

I typed in my symptoms on Google, and WebMD said "Achilles tendinitis is common in middle-aged people who play sports, such as tennis or basketball, only on the weekends." Dammit. It totally, though accurately, called me out for being middle-aged. After watching a ton of Prehab videos on Instagram, I found out they're in LA and quickly made an appointment. Arash gave me a program to follow and now I'm no longer playing through the pain. I would highly recommend going to see them and getting a personalized program. This 44 year old is now back to competing with those 20-somethings. read more

Michael Lau and the entire Prehab team are truly the best in the business. I suffered from a severe tibial plateau fracture (i.e., bad broken lower leg) with complex medical complications. Michael began guiding my care from the very early stages (I even still had surgical wounds) and because of his strategic approach to the rehab process, he had me walking again significantly faster than normally expected. Because of Michael and the team, I'm on my way to a full recovery. On a weekly basis, Michael curates a custom library of Prehab instructional videos that help guide my at-home physical therapy in between clinic visits. To say the least - this has made the rehab process INCREDIBLY EASY. I can't say enough good things about the team. They are exceptional and one-of-a-kind. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND and thank them for helping me rebuild. read more

I've been (un)fortunate enough to deal with a variety of injuries over the years, a handful of surgeries, and a half dozen or so physical therapy practices. At almost all of them, I was frustrated by the boilerplate provided to me as "customized" therapy - printouts from the same computer program which were the same when I had my first knee surgery twenty years ago. What impressed me the most about Prehab was their progressiveness and dedication to research - and how they advanced with modern medicine as quickly as we expect physicians to. I found them after my initial post-op therapist was more of the same old - I plateaued, was limited by pain, and didn't get any real answers to my rehab. Prehab is different. I appreciate their dedication, knowledge, and endless passion for modernizing physical therapy. I'm confident you will too. Their clinic is clean, staff friendly, and therapists dedicated to evidence-based practice. If that's not enough, they have coffee and beer on tap. I've also purchased one of their online programs - those are also legit. Your body will thank you. read more

I've had a lot of physical therapists in my life, but none holds a candle to Adele. She's exceptionally knowledgeable - I've got a lot wrong - and she always is able to figure it out. Most importantly, she gets results. I'm a D/D- physical therapy patient, yet I'm close to recovered following a pretty serious injury. It's due to her intelligence and effectiveness. Everything she does has a purpose. There is no waste. She's also really likeable (which helps when she's being firm about reps). I can't recommend her highly enough. Other things - The studio is a pleasure to visit. It's airy, modern & pristine, you often have the place to yourself, and if you're really lucky, you might see a doggie. Oh, and street parking is a breeze. read more

Can't even begin to say enough great things about PREHAB. I am a fairly active and athletic person and I know from past experiences how important it is to find a great PT. I began seeing Adelle after I tore my ACL skiing last winter on the recommendation from my surgeon Dr. Jones/ the Lakers team doctor. When she left the clinic to open up her own shop with her fiancé Mike, I had to follow her. From the customized exercise "homework" with links to detailed video demonstrations (most PTs just tell you what you should work on between sessions and expect you to remember how to do them) to the option to join the "Return to Sport ACL Club" (which I highly recommend!), Adelle and Mike give their clients the best, most encouraging, challenging (and fun!) atmosphere. Also worth noting, their space is brand new, super clean, and state of the art. read more

Amazing PT's. They really go the extra mile when it comes to care. Great service!

I was recommended to Prehab by my son. Craig helped him 100% recover from shoulder surgery, so I knew I was in good hands with my shoulder injury. I appreciated Craig's patience and willingness to explain things in detail to me. I'm happy to report that I, too, have now 100% recovered! read more

I've been doing rehab for almost 5 years and have tried the top rated rehabs from beverly hills to santa monica. When I discovered Prehab, I knew this was the place where I'd finally start to make real, measurable progress. The PTS are far and away the most knowledgeable, dedicated and caring - they make the workouts interesting and fun, always utilizing the latest in technology. Prehab measures your progress so you always know where you stand and where you are headed. The facility is clean and well kept and feels private. I'm so grateful for their PTS who have made the BIGGEST difference in my knee recovery journey. Cannot recommend enough. read more

I cannot recommend this place enough. Specifically I highly recommend Dorian. I have been to all of the local facilites at some point over the past 20 years..I always seem to end up with some sort of power struggle with my PT's because I am a highly trained mover. Its always been a real bummer, because I know my body so well and am so interested in learning.... My experience with Dorian was the best ever! He was 100 percent attentive, responsive, sensitive, communicative, caring and knowledgeable. He is a very rare bird in my opinion and I am deeply grateful for our work together. We worked together for 6 months total both in person and then virtually. I can't speak to the other PT's but the place itself has a great vibe. I am aware that it was quite a luxury to be able to invest in myself like this because for me it was all cash. But, I am so grateful for the ability to invest in my body with such brilliant support. If you are looking to learn as you heal and get back to thriving and being active- give it a try. read more

Adele is the best PT I've ever worked with (and I've had a lot of pt for various sport injuries and accidents over the years). When I first started working with Adele I could barely walk around the block without having a ton of pain in my knee. After two knee surgeries over the last 15 years and really bad pt 10 years ago all of my leg muscles on my left side basically gave up. Now after almost a year and a half into PTing with Adele and I've never felt stronger. I'm back to hiking and biking and living an active lifestyle. Adele and the prehab team are the actual best out there!! read more

PREHAB IS THE BEST. I came to here for ACL rehab and couldn't be happier with this place. I had the pleasure of working with Adelle and Mike who are awesome. They are so knowledgable and have helped me progress mentally and physically. I never thought ACL rehab could be "fun" but coming here made me actually ENJOY the recovery process. Such a great team and highly recommend to anyone in need of physical therapy. The atmosphere at this place is unlike any other! read more

I visited Prehab a few times for help with some nagging shoulder and groin injuries. I worked with Arash and had great experiences in each of my visits. He was patient and I could tell he was listening intently as I described my situation. He was highly knowledgeable and recommended several different exercises and has even stayed in touch through email months after my last visit, each time asking how I'm doing and recommending tweaks to my program based on how I'm feeling. I've also been using the new Prehab app and it's been awesome for my daily routine. I highly recommend Prehab to anyone seeking physical therapy. read more

No one I would recommend more. Adelle and the prehab team are the best of the best. Knowledgeable and super on top of everything. The place is super clean and so much fun to be in! I love physical therapy thanks to Adelle!! read more

Adelle is amazing, as is the rest of the team over at Prehab. They make PT enjoyable and personalized and are really dedicated to helping you get your strength back. Highly recommend! read more
