I've used Rausch for multiple injuries and they always get me back 100%. My daughter is a patient as well and they're getting her healed as well. I'd like to point out some great people. Andrew and Katheryn have been outstanding. Scheduling was seamless and a breeze with Selina. Gus has been a great aide for my daughter. Thank you to everyone else at the DP location who make this location the best. read more

Taking my mom here who is 77 years old. She had a back injury two months ago and has lost so much muscle on top of being in quite a bit of pain and discomfort, and not being able to do much at all. The WHOLE team here sincerely, seems so knowledgeable, caring, attentive, and helpful! I could go on and on about how happy we are with my mom's care. She's been three or four times already and has gotten noticeably stronger and feel so much more confident in her long-term. So grateful we found this place read more

I started at Rausch about two weeks ago to help deal with some chronic neck pain, and boy am I impressed! The therapists (shout out to Ryan and Jordan) are amazing!! And Selina on the front desk has been so incredibly helpful, going above and beyond to make me feel welcome! Thank you, Rausch! read more

They have competent PT Therapists but the focus on monetizing everything related to PT gets in the way of care. Attempting to call them on the phone to reschedule or ask questions is difficult. You are forced to listen to 2 minutes of advertising before they offer you the opportunity to leave a message. After my last attempt to reach them by phone during business hours, I received a call back 24 hours later. That pathetic customer interface undercuts my appreciation of the excellent therapy staff performance. read more

They're highly professional and knowledgeable. Friendly staff. Play excellent music. Flexible with scheduling. Highly recommend, Ryan and his team. Best PT spot in Orange County!! Tell them Connor referred you read more

Just finished my PT visits at the DP location of Rausch and couldn't be any happier! Limped into the office last month with Osteoarthritis of my left knee and Andrew and the rest of his crew were amazing getting me back to 100%! Everyone was super friendly and efficient and made the treatment visits fly by... First time receiving physical therapy, really didn't know what to expect but so happy with my results! read more

Needed PT for a compressed nerve in my arm which did a number on finger dexterity. Had the pleasure of each of the PT's working on me. They are all professional, knowledgeable and caring. The Dana Point location has a fun atmosphere so I never missed a secession. All the staff was friendly and cheerful. My thanks to Nick. PS: Don't let Clay talk you into rock climbing! read more

I just had my first massage from Fabiola and she is really good! I'm looking forward to my next with her.

I dont have anyone else to compare to. Everyone's really nice and knowledgeable, as far as I can tell. (-1) They don't print out the exercises for you, so you have to try to remember and write them down. I waited to try out PT until I was close to ready, my copay is high. I probably would only go once or twice, or after some weeks. They do give more advanced exercises, they were great. read more

Coming to Rausch 3x a week for physical therapy is the highlight of my morning! My physical therapist, Ryan, is truly a gem. I have a connective tissue disease that is going to be a lifelong battle and he's the first PT I have had who has pushed me to make incredible progress. He comes up with new creative exercises, he helps me through painful flare-ups, he researches my condition to find more modalities to help me--he really goes above and beyond! The front office manager, Shawna, is so friendly and always willing to help. Her cheerful mood brightens up the whole clinic! She has dealt with some tedious insurance issues for me, and also helped watch my dog during my exercises :) Brisa was my favorite aide before she moved to StretchFit--she is so helpful, attentive, and fun to work with! Tyler and Kevin are also wonderful, and I love doing my exercises with them. I always feel taken care of! My massage therapist, Kevin, is one of a kind. The knowledge he has of the human body is seriously impressive! He has the kindest heart but a veryyy strong touch (in a good way lol), so I guarantee you'll be sore but feel so much better after you see him! Every single person at Rausch--even the people who don't directly work with me (Emma, Sohan, Matt, Clay, and Nick), are absolutely delightful. I'm so grateful I found Rausch and will definitely be a lifelong patient! read more

Recently, Dr. Ryan Tran started treating me for severe muscle pain around my knees and lower back. Every step I took was extremely painful. I had lower back surgery 40 years ago caused by a skiing accident. I had back problems ever since. After receiving multiple shuts over the years, the pain surfaced repeatadly. Dr. Ryan developed a treatment program which would strengthen the muscles around the lower back and knees, but cautioned it would not correct the structural problems of my lower spine. Since I saw confinement in a wheelchair as a possibility, I opted to be treated. At age 85, the treatment was demanding. The improvement during the treatments, besides the encouragement of Dr. Ryan and his staff, was a real moral booster and kept me going. Now, I feel confortable enough to take my wife on an extended trip oversees. Thank you very much, Andreas read more

Everyone at Rausch is great. I've been working mostly with Nick, who is so knowledgeable and caring. But everyone I've worked with has been great and all added their expertise to helping heal my neck and back. I've been going consistently for 6 months and I've gone from being so weak that I could barely step up onto a curb to walking upstairs without even thinking about it. My back has gotten so much stronger and I feel like I can live my life more productively than I could before I started. Physical therapy really works if you work it, and Rausch is the best place with the best people! Don't be afraid to get started, just do it! read more

Massage therapist, Kevin has truly gifted hands! I left my appointment today feeling absolutely incredible. His skill and expertise to find and release my tension was unexpected and so rewarding. Overall, I appreciate and so grateful to have met Kevin and look forward to my next appointment. Letting the cat out of the bag... and would totally recommend. read more

Very pleasant place. Great therapists! It was a wonderful experience. I would definitely use them again.

I had the best 4 month experience I could've asked for. Since day one, the team took beautiful care of me with great attentiveness and professionalism. My PT, Clay, went above and beyond for me to recover and get back to 100%, nothing less. He was educative, took his time, and was always very intentional with my weekly progressions. His assistant, Brisa, was always so sweet and encouraging. I always looked forward to working with her. I enjoyed being in the environment the Rausch PT team created. Everyone is so friendly and inviting, and you can tell they truly enjoy working with one another. Leaving is bitter sweet and I'm forever grateful for the care I received there. read more

What a GREAT Physical Therapy facility. Excellent staff, including but not limited to Paige Caitlyn Jessica, and Brisa. The professional at Rausch is SPECTACULAR! read more

Feels amazing to wake up in 2021 with a shoulder that doesn't ache and is full of new strength and stability. At the end of last year, I needed rehab for a strained rhomboid in my shoulder. I'd dealt with it for over a year and had seen several specialists. I thought Rausch was the best out of my experiences. I feel like you get the personal touch of an well rounded team, it's a nice spacious facility, and the coaching for strengthening exercises was key. I took those home and put them into my routine--which fast tracked me to get back to 100% (which I wasn't even sure was possible). Now I'm back to surfing, skateboarding, golfing, mountain biking, chasing pullup PR's, HIIT, kettlebells, mace flows, yeah...regular life :) The photo below is from a few days after my original injury. My shoulder strain was so bad that I could barely walk or sit upright. My friends had to help carry me through the airport as we left for Mexico. I healed back to about 70% on my own--Rausch helped me get to that 100%, which is super helpful for fluid motion and probably is helping me from injury myself in some other way. read more

Dr Ruth is truly a blessing. She has changed my life with her caring hands and heart.

Rausch PT the best of the best. Milena is priceless and the team knows their stuff. They give you one on one attention. For a year I suffered with a torn Miniscus and floating cartilage which caused severe pain. I had surgery but had been dragging that leg for a year. I needed to learn how to walk and find my balance again. With a combination of specific stretches and balance techniques I am now walking normally and am pain free. There are no words to ever convey the gratitude I feel from the healing energy I got from everyone at Rausch. As happy as I am I finished PT I am sad to leave this healing place. So thank you all for giving me back my mobility and my quality of life. read more

The best physical therapy place I have been. Kudos to my PT, Clay. He is the best. Very patient and clearly explains the issues and remedies. Significant improvement since I went to Clay and he takes his time to do it right. Very positive person and the environment is very friendly and everyone is in a happy mood. Love this place and if anyone is looking for a PT, I will highly recommend Rausch PT at Dana Point. read more

I was very disappointed with the care I received at Rausch. I have had recurring sciatica for many years and know the PT drill well. This time it it included pain running down the front of my leg as well. I was in lots of pain. The treatment I received did not even come close to what most places have for protocol. I decided to try them due to their proximity. I had used Pack PT for many years and several years ago Rausch bought Pack and I thought I would try them. Big Mistake!! Ruth did the assessment the first day I went in. Before I left I went to make ongoing appointments but she had nothing but told me not to worry, she would work something out. That something was an intern who was so extremely inexperienced and had no idea what she was doing. She actually told me to stop doing the exercises I have done over the years for my sciatica. The only thing she ever did was lightly rub the muscles in the front of the thigh. Protocol in most places includes some combination of heat, manipulation, ice, electric stim and exercise not just alone but with equipment...almost always including bike riding. Rausch has no equipment except one bike which I never saw anyone using. After a few weeks of using the intern and having NO ONE overseeing her or checking on how I was doing I spoke up and insisted on one of the PT's work with me as I was not getting any better and my sciatica was actually worse. Their protocol is having someone work on you, have you do a few exercises on the table and scoot you out the door. I feel like I gave them a fair chance but knowing what good PT looks like I finally moved on to another facility that is right on target. I am already feeling better. I came back on yelp to relook at the reviews for Rausch and realized that many of them were actually published when Brody Pack owned the business including my own which was 5 stars. I deleted it as it was for Pack not Rausch which I feel is deceiving but probably legal as they were most likely purchased as park of the business. I am now at Spine And Sport in San Juan. They are not part of the new Spine and Sport chain but an independent company that had been around for a long time prior to the new S&S chain expanding into OC from San Diego. I have been there a few weeks and the progress I have made is excellent. I am a medicare patient and have not been denied anything. The atmosphere is lovely as are the people working there. I'm so glad I found them. read more

‍Any TRANS peeps! ‍ You'll be respected and safe here. My pronouns are They/Them and the staff uses them and treats me fairly. I've been to this location for an old shoulder injury and then I requested them after carpal tunnel surgery. Shout out to CLAY for the chit chat and superb therapy! Syd is a rad aid as well , it's a small location but they make it work. The team is always talking about their next staff gathering and seem like a close work family. (Plus, they are way more down-to-earth than the Laguna Niguel location.) Will miss this place and only leaving because I'm moving states. Thanks y'all! -Zed read more

Second ACL repair, other knee...Full tear, allograft... The right PT has been critical to my recoveries and prognosis...Pack PT is a fantastic group of PT's, Technicians and Administrators... I had good fortune to 'pre-hab' for 6 weeks prior to surgery. Brody Pack and his team laid out a great plan and therapies for ensuring a successful post op. Very individualized attention, listened and worked with me on my goals and showed great proficiency and knowledge. Post op was fantastic. I wanted an agressive recovery. They created a plan and made sure that I was challenged while keeping me honest during the long term recovery. The PT's we're all highly skilled and best in class, I credit my quick recovery to the management by this group. The Technicians, were the icing on the cake. Energetic, knowledgeable, attentive and engaged. More than once I had commented how 'mean' they were in keeping me working hard on my therapies. The tech's really had an eye for keeping their patients progressing and well taken care of. The administration is key to making everything run well, this is underestimated in most offices and Pack PT has the best staff keeping operations running smoothly, efficiently and with great care. In 12 weeks quad strength and full mobility had returned, by 16 weeks I was back to running, and on my 6 month anniversary Ill be climbing Mt Whitney... Thanks Brody and Team, you all rock! read more

I started physical therapy a few weeks ago after a bike accident and elbow surgery. From my first interaction I knew it would be great! Clay my PT is great, encouraging, thorough. Everyone at the office has been customer service oriented and down to earth. read more

I was a client of PT Brody Pack, the previous business owner, who was great, so it was disappointing how different my PT at Rausch was. For a rotator cuff injury the hands on work from her was, in some sessions, just random, light finger massage over my t-shirt that I could have easily done for myself anywhere. No heat was ever administered at the start to warm up the area, as the PT work was so minimal. My PT tried a few times to put me with a beginner PT so perhaps she didn't feel my injury was worthy of her time, it felt like that - which is why I ended my treatment there. Pros here are the assistants who supervise exercises and the friendly ladies at reception. Overall not worth the copay. read more

After falling over a 3x3 crate at work I didn't think I'd ever feel better. I began working with Clay on my shoulder and even though it's early in my PT, my range of motion is coming back and even my posture is improving. I am thrilled with Clay and the entire team at Rausch! read more

I have been getting treatments at Pack since April 2019. The staff is very professional and caring. I, always, feel that I am receiving the very best care . Bryce is attentive, caring and professional. I , highly, recommend Pack ! I just had a second injury and was so happy as well as relieved that I could return to Pack for treatment. This is a 10 star review! I wish to say Alyssa , the office manager, is super nice, helpful and professional. The whole staff takes such great care of the patients! A huge shout out to everyone and tons of praise!!! read more

I just finished up my therapy with the terrific team at Pack/Rausch PT in Dana Point. I had a total knee replacement and I know that my recovery was helped along to a great degree because of the treatment I received. Bryce,Brian and the amazing assistants were knowledgeable and helpful. What really impressed me was that they were invested in my recovery. They made sure to treat any issues associated by the knee replacement providing relevant exercises and information along the way. They were patient and informative. I also wanted to compliment the office staff. They were responsive as well and run a very organized operation. My appointments started in time and they were always able to find times that worked with my schedule. Thank you all for helping me enjoy my new knee! read more

This place has been with me on an extensive journey to recovery! I'm so grateful for Catherine who is not only an active part of my recovery but there for me through this long process of the emotions that come with healing an extensive injury! Ruth and Brian have also been extremely helpful and all the assistants/aids and Nikki at the front desk have been so friendly and amazing to me theough this process!

This is going to be a LONG review... So if you want the shortened version: Go to Rausch PT in Dana Point!!!!! PERIOD. I've been to at least 4-6 different PT locations over the years and they have all been "okay". At all previous locations the routine was similar: initial consultation with therapist, development of therapy plan, followed by multiple routine office visits. Results were okay with "some" improvement. Then their is Rausch!!! Rausch is MORE than head and shoulders above the rest. From the moment I walked into Rausch I felt the difference. Nikki (front desk) is ALWAYS genuinely friendly, efficient and helpful. She is energetic and knowledgeable with insurance issues/ billing & scheduling. She ALWAYS is prompt with returning phone calls and/ or emails. Although this is probably not your primary priority in a PT center, it's refreshing and sets the office tone. Now the therapy: I first saw Dr. Ruth. My ailments are lower back, thumb, and hip. (Post hip replacement). After initial consultation and exam she developed/ initiated and implemented a PT plan. Wow, did I see results and improvement!!! Her enthusiasm and dedication are second only to her knowledge, training, and ability to treat your physical issues. Every visit is like a first visit, meaning it's never a "routine" where you feel like progress has stopped, or flattened out. About 50% of my visits are with Kathryn however. Kathryn is also amazing in her abilities, interest in your improvement and techniques!!! She has completely different methods and PT which further speed up my recovery. Between Kathryn and Dr. Ruth my progress has been unparalleled! I've never before looked forward to going to PT but at Rausch I certainly do! Why??? Because of how much it helps and how fast I'm seeing/ feeling results. GO TO RAUSCH for your PT needs!!! You won't regret it! read more

I had ruptured my Achilles' tendon and had been referred to another PR clinic, after my first visit at another location and wasn't satisfied with the therapist and rehab plan, I was looking for a new PT and found Pack. The team is amazing and have seen positive results since my first session. They are very hands on, the treatment they use is something I hadn't had before but noticed a quicker increase in mobility than other injuries and PT in the past. I would highly refer Brody and his team. read more

I would gladly give this group 6 Stars. I only started using there services a few weeks ago. The difference in my flexibility strength and comfort are truly unbelievable. The attention, cleanliness and results have been Top quality. But the main benefit is my personal results. When I leave after a treatment I feel truly blissful. Seriously! The exercises they supervise And manipulation treatment with Stainless Steel Instruments and Massage cream is incredible. A flow of energy from increased circulation and the spinal work done with manipulation is like nothing else I've experienced. My lower back is feeling much better and more flexible!! Just saying! This is just a follow-up to my earlier post. After several months of treatment, My results have been Stellar! The results have been long lasting relief from Pain. While I have seen a chiropractor for years, I have never felt the relief this group has provided. I am so thankful and happy I found, Brody and Shane, and the entire staff. 5 Stars with out a doubt! read more
