Frequently Asked Questions

  • A physical therapy visit lasts about 40-60 minutes. The actual contents of the visit vary based on your diagnosis/need, but typically what happens is:

    1. You check in with the receptionist, make any appointments necessary, and we discuss your health insurance benefits with you.
    2. You go into the gym. You can change clothes if you need to, then begin therapy.
    3. You perform 6-8 various exercises and stretches. These can include therapeutic band exercises, light body weight exercises, or minimal weights. The stretches will promote strength, stability, improved range of motion, and pain relief.
    4. We can initiate other techniques to include manual work, taping, cupping, and dry needling as needed.
    5. The therapist makes recommendations based on your progress. These can include altering the frequency of visits, making additions/alterations to your home exercise plan, or things to do before your next visit.
  • We recommend budgeting 40-60 minutes for a typical therapy session. The only exception to this will be your first visit, which can take about 20 minutes longer due to the physical therapy evaluation your therapist will provide. We also recommend showing up about 10-15 minutes early to your first visit. This way, you can complete the paperwork before your visit time and streamline the process.

  • If we are asking you to do something that is hurting too much, let us know! Physical therapy should not be severely painful. It is not common to be so sore that patients are in pain or it affects their daily life. If this ever happens during or after an appointment, let us know and we will adapt your program.

  • During your initial evaluation, your therapist may ask you a number of questions to determine what the cause of your pain is. This can include questions about your sleep habits, activity level, and work environment. They will also ask for a medical history, and then typically ask direct questions about where and when you experience pain.

People in Culver City Trust Orthosport PT

Hear from patients that reclaimed their lives.

June 2020 – The telehealth interface is very intuitive and having an interactive session with my therapist ensured proper form and function. I appreciate the one-on-one focus. My therapist always starts sessions with a quick check-in with regard to any after-effects of the previous session, and then we dive right in, gradually adding more and more challenging exercises. A follow-up email with additional exercises and other resources helped me feel in control of my recovery. My therapist has come up with creative ways to use ordinary household items (a ball, a towel, a pillow) as rehab tools – it’s been a very satisfying experience overall. I would not be walking on two feet without this service – I’m so grateful to have a safe way to get the help that I desperately need. Thank you, Orthosport and Telehealth!

I have been a patient a few times in the past for various injuries and have always received great treatment on my road to recovery. In mid July I had a two-procedure surgery on my right shoulder. My first thought was to wait until October for the surgery as I had a very important golf tournament in early September. As I had experienced so much success with past procedures, I felt I could mend before the tournament date. I therefore went ahead with the procedures. It was such a pleasure to work with the staff at OrthoSport. Everyone did a fantastic job of rehabilitating my shoulder. Christina and Michael worked with me for the last few weeks to help me redevelop my golf swing. the rehabilitation was great success as my partners and I came in 2nd place in the tournament. One week later we came in 3rd place in a second tournament.

Approximately 2 years ago, I was involved in a serious car accident.  As a result of the accident, I sustained spinal, knee, and head trauma, which required multiple surgeries.  After my surgeries, I was recommended be my physician to have my rehabilitation treatment at Orthosport Physical Therapy.  Being a retired professional athlete, I have been fortunate to be treated by some of the best doctors and therapists in the country.  I have to say that the same care, compassion, and professionalism has been brought forth by the Orthosport staff.  I am greatly indebted to them for their support and willingness to assist me in my recovery.  I would highly recommend Orthosport Physical Therapy to anyone in need of rehabilitation.

Maxwell Jones, Retired professional football player

I started physical therapy with Orthosport in December 2008 after having shoulder surgery and have been very pleased with the professionalism and care with which I have been treated. The physical therapist and the technician explained each step of the treatment and let me know how I was progressing as I reached each benchmark toward recovery of shoulder functioning. The home exercises were carefully explained and a printout was provided. My orthopedist has expressed his pleasure at my progress and I am sure he will continue to recommend Orthosport. During sessions, the therapist was friendly and I noticed that other patients were being treated with the same consideration and encouragement. The rooms and equipment were always clean and equipment that was not being used was properly stored. The receptionist was always pleasant and remembered names of patients.  I would recommend Orthosport to anyone who wants high quality physical therapy.

Back in November my knee pain prevented me from enjoying playing soccer as I am used to. It got to the point that I could not play a whole game. The Orthopedic doctor recommended that I go for Physical Therapy. I was lucky enough to go to Orthosport. My physical therapist worked with me to get back to playing with no pain. They designed a program that is specific to my pain level and progress. As the pain got better and my leg strength grew I was constantly challenged more.   It’s been about three months now and I am back to playing soccer once a week. I am looking forward to continuing my therapy and enjoying playing soccer more often. I just wanted to say thank you for the professional care that I received from the staff at Orthosport.

I am a patient at Orthosport Physical Therapy suffering with chronic lower back pain on and off for the past 4 years. I have received the best results from my physical therapist through my sessions at Orthosport. The treatment, mobilizations, and exercises are far healthier and last longer than the temporary relief experienced from the oral medications I had been taking for years.
