I had a tear to my right biceps tendon and after surgery, recovery has been slow, up until getting physical therapy here. Tammi and Maili are both incredibly knowledgeable and helpful with my recovery. Before getting Therapy here, I was so depressed thinking that I'll never get better. I'm now experiencing the positive effects of the therapy and guidance they both provide. From the Women that checks the patients in, to the Therapists, this place is top notch! Everyone is so nice, the entire place from waiting area to the gym is clean and orderly. Very organized. They also have a TV in the waiting area with video showing the employees when they have gatherings and celebrations. They truly are Ohana here. Again, very courteous and helpful Staff. I would recommend Core Sports Physical Therapy to anyone who needs specialized therapy to move forward in Life! Aloha Core Sports!!

I've been to four visits thus far and I can only sing praises! Nicole is my PT and she is just the…read moresweetest! I had a little difficulty finding the office for my first visit, so she stood outside to make it easier for me. Nicole is the epitome of excellence for care and service! She has such a polite demeanor and is very compassionate. She demonstrates exercises that need to be done to strengthen me and then assures that I am executing them appropriately by having me do a few. I first went to an urgent care that said I may be back to normal in 4-6 months. Nicole's care has made me feel as if I'm going to be back to "normal" a lot sooner. However, I'm going to miss this "ray of sunshine" when that happens!

My sessions at Laulima PT with Nicole DPT, have reduced my pain significantly, helped relax the muscles in my back and legs, reduced my sciatica pain, helped me with stretching, and given me confidence through education on exercises, postures and postioning. I leave every session with a reduction of pain, confident I've learned something new, relaxed by Nicole's calm, professional demeanor and happy I made the decision to give physical therapy a try. What a difference this has made.

Guess what, I did that and the lady told me it's $75. I'm going to finish out my appts somewhere else and continue to tell everyone how bad these guys are with being flexible with your scheduling.

I had arthroscopic surgery on my left knee back in June 2019. After, I saw a PT for three months…read more I regained my range of motion but was never 100% recovered. I had muscle weakness, my knee was still in pain when I walked up the stairs, and I couldn't run. My knee also made this awful crunchy sound when I bent it, and it was sore. Before my surgery, I played soccer, did CrossFit, and was a regular gym-goer. I was determined to get back to my active lifestyle. A friend of mine referred me to Mark after she had treated her for her sciatica. After my first visit (sometime in March 2020, pre-COVID), I was pleased with my treatment because he added so much value to my session. He conducted an assessment on me and concluded that my left hip was weak and was the reason why my knee was hurting. He then proceeded in doing soft tissue work on my thigh, IT band and hamstring. He also used different modalities like cupping and scrapping because my quads were so tight, which was another thing that was contributing to knee pain. Then he had me do a couch stretch (stretching the quads and hip flexors). At first, that stretch was painful and hard to do. I could not hold the position upright without the yoga ball propping me up. After more visits, Mark continued to do soft tissue work, which helped tremendously. On the plus side, he adjusted my neck and back (he's certified to do it). Mark was a chiropractor, massage therapist, and PT all in one. Even though I was there to treat my knee, he was able to address other issues like my tight back or ankle. Please make no mistake; I did the work and continued to do the exercises and stretches at home. A couple of days ago, he retested my knee, and guess what?! To his and my surprise, the loud crunchy noise in my knee was like 80% gone and had no discomfort. I'm able to do a couch stretch without any props. No pain when walking up the stairs. Even my squats were getting better. I wished I saw Mark right after my surgery; then, I would have been farther along in my recovery. It's been a long time since I saw progress. It makes me hopeful. If you are an athlete like I am, I highly recommend Mark. He understands that you have to treat your athletes differently than your regular patients, which I appreciated. I'm looking forward to continuing to do more sessions with him. I hope this post helps someone when choosing a PT. Sometimes the smaller independent providers are better than the high-end brand named providers.

I had a good feeling about Mei from the beginning because when making an appointment there is a detailed questionnaire. At my first appointment she took the time to talk with me and was so compassionate and kind. I felt immediate relief after my first appointment and it just continues to get better each time. Mei offers Tuina Chinese massage, fire cupping, and acupuncture and you can book either a 1 hour session for one side or a 2 hour session for both sides. I always book the 2 hour sessions and highly recommend it! It's well worth the price as she provides high quality care. It is clean and welcoming inside and a very relaxing environment. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs pain relief, relaxation, and/or self-care. Whether you're kama'aina or visiting, definitely book a session!

My aunt is in hospice care. It is a clean well kept facility. They have a seemingly full activity…read morecalender including various faith services. In the beginning she didn't get the care she was recommended with staff telling my cousin it was because they were understaffed. It got better but that disturbed me. We brought lunch which my aunt enjoyed tremendously. Apparently the food is bland and tasteless because they must serve healthy food. What we don't like: It is very noisy there which makes conversations difficult with older people. There is the car wash across the street with constant white noise, across the street is a 2 story commercial space and an alarm went off for nearly 1 hour! It was like torture at Guantanamo. They also play music over the loudspeakers in this patio where visitors and residents hang out. A few brought out their personal boom boxes and played music loudly. All I'm saying is hearing comprehension and hearing in general is harder for older people. They often have weakened vocal chords too so shouting and repeating oneself for 1 hour is exhausting. If it wasn't for noise level I'd give it a 4 stars and recommended it warmly for family.

Just a warning this review is probably going to be all over the place. Just trying to get…read morewhatever thoughts out as I can. There is a short term wing and a long term wing. My grandma had stayed in both at different times. Short term was for when she had surgery and needed rehab/after care. The most recent stay, she was in long term. I had been choosing ignorance and avoidance so I really didnt know what that meant. My grandma did have a roommate and it seemed she had been there for quite some time. A word slipped from a conversation with my dad and it was "hospice". I immediately lost it and started looking more into the reviews. I wasn't happy with reading others reviews but it gave me a better idea of what to expect. As Michael mentioned, this facility can cater to all their needs including near end of life *tear*. At that point I probably started my grieving process. Visiting this facility there was always a cloud over my head. There were some things that made it easier knowing she was here. There were trained nurses to cater to her. No smoking allowed. The potential to engage in activities and seeing others. Healthy meals were planned and prepared. So it's not all bad, just the stigma attached I guess. Check in station: table with sanitizer and disposable masks provided. Kiosk to enter your name & phone number. Info is saved for check out and future visits. Daily activities: there is a calendar posted with the daily activities for the month. Times are listed next to the activity and there were multiple activities daily. Karaoke, movie, bracelet making, casino... I wish I could say we enjoyed these activities but unfortunately I could never get gram in the mood to participate. But I appreciated it was an available option. Common area: spacious. Ample seating. Cable TV. Food: patients are able to choose their foods for the week. A menu is sent out and they just circle their choices. I've seen foods like baked chicken, poi, pork & eggplant, Mash potatoes, tea, milk... definitely good food choices. I'm sure there are tiered menus varying by price of meal plan. Unsure if there is a laundry service. As far as I know laundry is done by family members at home and brought back. I can see how this minimizes mix up with the many patients clothing. There is a salon on property. I'll need to dig around in my photos to see if I caught a menu. Unsure of pricing/services offered. Everything I am going to mention is just what I've seen and in no way accusatory... I don't think the facility is able to strap patients to their beds. With that being said, I was told that my grandmother fell out of her bed. I have tried to look around the bed for a call button but could never find one. I've asked my grandmother about it but her memory wasn't the best while she stayed here. Another thing I noticed during my visits was a woman across the hall yelling for help. One instance where a nurse tried to tend to her I did hear a lot of bickering about non sense completely unrelated to the issue she originally complained about. So I'm sure there's a lot of "the boy who cried wolf" cases. With everything that needs to be done with all the patients in the facility I'm sure it's not an easy task to tend to everyone when they call. It just was a bit concerning that I couldn't find a call button and in order to get assistance you'd need to yell out for someone. I believe if you go into the facility with a plan and ensure that the staff is on board with those plans, it could definitely help put family members at ease. In the future hopefully I have a clearer understanding of how to deal with situations like this and I hope others would prepare accordingly as well. There's lots of situations that are out of our hands and almost impossible to prepare for so my view on this facility is going to be neutral. Ultimately the fall did have an impact, but I wouldn't say that was the direct cause. There are areas of improvement, as always. And I hope that they can make some changes for the better. Anyone grieving can place blame on anything but I'm trying not to go down that rabbit hole for my sanity. There's a series of events that all lead up to one point and I'll leave it at that. My grandma did speak kindly about a couple of the nurses that tended to her. One would even bring her drinks and snacks from the vending machine down the hall. I'm sure that makes a world of difference to brighten patients days. I've heard no bad things about this facility and I haven't had any negative experiences myself while visiting.

They really don't follow Doctors orders or read their notes for different shifts. She would sit in soiled diapers or could of fell or any type of emergency and no one would know due to long periods of wait times. Wait times varied from 15minutes or up to 1 hour while I was there. Kept her phone near told her to call 911 you might get help faster or try to yell for help if emergency. Also, was not made aware if discharged earlier than planned discharged would not be able to file appeal if needed to. Would be nice if communicated this, patient and family could reconsider to planned discharge. Nothing was stated when request made for earlier discharge one day prior. This would be really beneficial for future clients too. Food could be better and temperature. Not very sanitary. Need more cleaning and steam cleaning of their bedding and curtains and use of gloves all the time.
