A car accident 23 months ago lead me to neck and back surgery. Doctors and surgeon said everything was good physically. I went to 2 other physical therapist before attending movement specialist. I have never seen more passionate people about physical therapy. They have inspired and pushed me out of my comfort zone to have achieved amazing results beyond my experience in p/t. They have educated me on proper techniques and even done my exercises next to me to inspire me to push through the pain caused by scar tissue due to being laid up during the pandemic. I highly recommend Movment Specialist for physical therapy.

I’ve been seeing Taylor for pre-hab and rehab for my acl reconstruction and meniscus tear. She is an amazing PT and has kept me hopeful and confident through this process. I’m always welcomed and get put in a great mood walking into Movement specialists. Every person is so nice and professional. I have seen such improvement in my knee and I am so happy I found Taylor and this facility. I highly recommend if you are looking for a great environment and doctors that really want to see you heal to go to Movement Specialist.

The lower back has been a big problem most of my 30’s. Carrying kids and slowing down in my activities cause some big time back issues. It used to “go out” on me a lot.That was until I saw movement specialist. They have dialed me in to be as active as I want and teach me how to keep a healthy back. They didn’t focus on my back. They focused on everything else and showed me that my other parts of the body were not being used at all or used properly.I now am able to keep up with my aging kids and stay injury free.Just Go see them! You won’t regret it. It’s all in the details over there. Very smart Doctors.

I absolutely love this place!! I was going to their old facility but this new location is GREAT.They are very conscious with the COVID situations and constantly cleaning and wiping things down which is very reassuring as a client.The customer services has always been phenomenal. The workouts are always challenge and I love the mission of this clinic. As an athlete I am constantly striving to better myself and this is the place to go for PT or even strength and conditioning. Su keeps my body performing at its highest capabilities as well as educating me about my body.If I could rate this place a 6/5 I would!

Su and her team are amazing. Great at making you feel better and really great exercises.I have done physical therapy with them twice now. Once a few years ago for a hip/ leg injury and this year for my back and shoulders. Truly great at making you feel in tip top shape. It takes time but they are patient and incredibly kind. They do all sorts of things for the community to which is awesome.

I have been coming to Dr. Su for over 5 years and more recently Dr. Taylor. I always look forward to my appointments. Thanks to MSPT, I have recovered from several injuries including achilles tendonitis, clavicle fracture, and an ACL tear. Staff are friendly and helpful. Excited to see that they have started to carry supplements from 1st Phorm. They offer anything from pre-workout to immunity boosters to proteins that help me make gains and stay healthy.

1st Phorm Review: Huge fan of this company! I typically use the Megawatt preworkout (Rocket Pop flavor is the best!) before I head out and surf. I need an extra oomph to get out of bed and catch the early waves; this preworkout makes me feel unstoppable and maintain high energy throughout my entire surf session! Afterwards I turn to their BCAA’s to replenish my body and help with recovery. I’m a huge fan of the Blue Raspberry flavor, which is a perfect balance between tart and sweet, making it a nice treat after a hard workout!

My experience with Movement Specialists has been nothing but positive. Ive had shoulder pain for years, and finally decided to try and fix it this past April. I was referred to Dr. John by a friend who spoke highly of him. After explaining my fitness history, and performing some stretches/exercises, Dr. John pinpointed what caused my pain, what I had done to further exacerbate this pain, and how I could recover and avoid future shoulder pain. Ive been going to Movement Specialists for a few months now, and my shoulder pain has disappeared completely. Now, Im working on strengthening my shoulder to help prevent future injuries.The team at Movement Specialists is great. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and willing to go out of their way to help. Whenever I have a question, someone can help me immediately, even if theyre not working with me directly. The staff is also very knowledgeable, and is able to explain in detail why we do the exercises we do, and what muscles are strengthened through each exercise. I would recommend Movement Specialists to anyone who is considering physical therapy. I had no idea what to expect when I walked in to my first appointment, but Im happy I did.

This is a great place to be. The staff at the facility make you feel safe and part of the family while you are recovering from your ailment. There is always someone working with you while you are there to assist you and you are never left alone to do your exercises. You really feel like you are getting the best treatment to help you achieve your goals.

Movement Specialist PT is AMAZING. John Huang has helped me to get back to doing the things I love and for that Im so grateful! I went to him after having chronic pain post knee surgery, and the treatment has exceeded my expectations in every way. The care is so specific to your needs and treats the root of the problem. Ive had so much 1:1 time with John, and each week he has tweaked and changed my program to help me reach my goals. I have so much more mobility. He met me where I was at both physically and emotionally and made it fun. I genuinely looked forward to going - he even brought a SpikeBall net in for warm up as that was on my goals day 1 to get back to playing. I cant say enough good things about him, the staff, the clean facility, just all of it! It was a great experience. I will definitely recommend them to anyone in need of rehab or preventative care.

Just started seeing Dr.Taylor for a foot injury. I explained to her that I have upcoming marathon and that I need to get back to training. She is extremely positive and supportive, and is working hard to get me back out there ASAP. In just two visits I’m seeing improvements. I highly recommend this PT.

Dr. John Huang is a fantastic therapist and is very professional. He treated my shoulder and taught me how to move properly so I could get back to playing volleyball pain free. Hes very outgoing, attentive and tailors his care to meet your personal goals. I highly recommend John and the rest of the staff at MSPT! They all are extremely knowledgeable and work as a perfect team together.

This is a really good place to go if you need physical therapy! The treatment style is not very medicinally reliant; instead they help you make lifestyle changes that can help you significantly lessen or get rid of your pain and can really transform the quality of your life.They work with all kinds of people and are very kind and accommodating without being too light or easy on you.The doctors here are very smart and are very good at getting to the root of your problems!Personally, Im a lot better than I could have been without their help. I really do recommend them!

Dr. Su Wang , Dr. Christine Nguyen, and Dr. Taylor Stuckly are a great team of Physical Therapists. They work closely and effectively on their patients. Their attention to detail that includes a vigorous treatment plan made me feel well cared for and my ailments are well treated with my overall health has improved as a result. In fact, their good treatment plan has saved me an expensive, painful, and unnecessary surgery which would also require physical therapy afterward anyway. I strongly recommend this team to anyone who is suffering from pain and discomfort due to any physical ailments or for post surgery rehabilitation.

Dr. Su Wang is a highly educated intellectual and her physical therapy knowledge not only stems from esteemed academia but also hands on experience. Her hands on experience comes from her being a fully active athlete with sports ranging from surfing, snow boarding, mountain climbing, swimming, jogging, yoga, jujitsu, etc. She truly understands the athletic movement of the body of each unique sport and to properly diagnose any physical ailment. Her keen eyes, ears, and caring observation, quickly pinpoints the troubled area. She then gives you a training regime and ensures that you perfect each movement so you can maximize healing and recovery. The attention to detail and caring nature is outstanding! Youre literally in good hands with Dr. Su Wang. Her high standards, integrity, and compassion makes this clinic top notch!

So, I was looking at all of the five star reviews and was thinking that every time I see all 5 stars that the reviews are fake or bought or something not legit. In this case though, the only reason they are only 5 stars is because there is no choice to give a 6 or a 10 or more. MSPT is the real deal. You can look at all the other reviews and see how great Dr. Su, Ian, Dr. Taylor and the staff are and they are all true. They actually care about you and healing your injury. They also want to teach you how to move better to help prevent more problems. They dont just treat the problem, they treat the cause. There is a huge difference. Look, there are a lot of good places to go for PT, I have been to a few. Im sure there are a few great places as well. Movement Specialists Physical Therapy is exceptional! You dont need to waste your time reading anymore reviews, you can stop here. You have found the place you are looking for and then some. Nuff said!

Su is a Dragon Trainer, so if you go there, be prepared to sweat and work and maybe even cry a bit. I wasnt, so it was a surprise that getting better would take that type of effort. Luckily, they have candy and smiles and laughter...which turns those salty tears sweet. Now Im back to my games of bball and surfing and surfing and...and surfing!

Being a college QB tearing my labrum was a nightmare! Dr. Huang and the whole team helped me get my shoulder back to 100 percent in time for football season. I would recommend for any athlete with an injury or anyone that needs PT!

Gosh...where to start. There are so many great things to say about this clinic. The very first thing that I noticed was the warm vibe when I walked in. Everyone greeted me with a smile and you could tell it was truly genuine.Before I even saw the doctor, Ian sat down with me and explained the insurance/payment process. This stuff is normally like a foreign language to me, but it was clear that Ian had a true command of the process. He was really helpful and considerate, and the billing process was a breeze.Now on to Su...wow!! Ive been to a few PTs before, and none of them were ever as detailed as Su was when it came to taking my history. The first consult lasted around an hour, and Su analyzed every little detail possible. We discussed my past sports injuries, my current concerns, and even my diet and day-to-day activities. What really blew me away was how Su analyzed my body movements. She quickly picked up on abnormal movements and specific muscle groups that have been over-compensating and causing pain. Her detailed approach and comprehensive understanding of the human body is truly amazing.I have now been going to this clinic for several months, and I can safely say that my shoulder has improved more in this time than it did over the previous 10 years of treatment. Thank you so much!

Hands down best PT Ive ever been to and Ive unfortunately been to quite a few (DC, PT, DPT, etc) post knee surgery, soccer injuries, strongman injuries, etc. Amazing care, attentive ear, and involved the entire time.
