Physical therapy covers a wide variety of treatments with the goal of improving range of motion, strength, endurance, and motor control. Exercises may include flexibility training, core stabilization, strengthening, aerobic conditioning, and training in balance and body awareness. Specialized techniques such as aquatic therapy or Pilates-based exercise may be incorporated into your treatment. When indicated, gait analysis and temporary orthotic fitting is available. The Physical Therapy Department features a therapeutic gym complete with strengthening and conditioning equipment.

Patient involvement is key to a successful recovery: Your physical therapist will teach you how to manage your condition and reduce your risk of reinjury. Some patients may need just a few visits. After your initial evaluation, your therapist will check your progress as well as review and expand your exercise program for the home or gym.

We accept referrals from physicians, case managers, patients, and their families.  We will work with you to coordinate services with your insurance company or Workers Compensation program. To learn more about our programs and services, or to schedule an appointment, call (415) 750-5900.

Insurance Coverage

Most insurance plans, including Medicare, Medi-Cal, and Workers Compensation, cover outpatient treatment with a referral from your physician or other health care provider. Our insurance specialists can help you determine the extent of your coverage and arrange for authorization of services.
