Southern California Aquatic and Physical Therapy

The staff is very friendly. The establishment is very clean. Staff is very caring. Avante is one of my favorite PT aids. The only thing I do not like is the smell from the pool.

The facility is clean, the staff are very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I’ve been receiving therapy here for several months and it has helped me tremendously. They take the time to evaluate you and tailor a plan that will best help your recovery or needs. The pool is Wonderful. I have adopted the employees as my family. Because family looks after one another and that’s how I feel here. I highly recommend SO CA Aquatic & Physical Therapy. If you are serious about your health they will partner with you to achieve your goals.
Love you Family 💕

To the Owners, Therapist and Office Employees at Southern California Aquatic And Physical Therapy,
I would like to thank all of you for your help in getting me through my back, legs and foot problems. A special "Thank You" to Karen Houston for setting up my special recovery program. And to everybody for keeping an eye on me so I didn't cut corners with my exercise. You guys were always friendly and helpful! I like how everyone helps out with working out, especially when you are not doing the exercise right or if your posture is bad. Everyone keeps the clinic sanitary and picked up!
The best to you all in the future and be safe!
Thanks!
Fred

I can't begin to express how much my time of treatment at Southern California Aquatic and Physical Therapy has helped me return to a healthier and more pain-free existence! The therapists are well-trained and qualified for the treatment they provide. Both therapists and support staff are kind, supportive, encouraging and respectful in their care for each individual patient. Finding the care and support of Southern California Aquatic and Physical Therapy has been a Godsend for me. Hopefully you will find similar help through their skilled and consistent care.

I am very impressed with the professional and friendly staff at So CA Aquatic and PT. I highly recommend their physical therapy. Karen has been excellent with lots of ideas to strengthen my knees and reduce the pain. Tim who does the pool aquatic therapy is a great listener and willingly gives advice to increase healing.

The front desk staff are very sweet and helpful giving each client the time they need. I met Karen PT for initial appointment and she was knowledgeable and seemed happy to help anytime I needed. I look forward to working with her someday. I’ve presently had about 6 aqua therapies with Tim. He is very kind spirited and concerned with how you feel for the day as he decides what is the best workout for each individual that comes in.
The place is clean. Plenty of parking. Nice early hours so I can go to work afterwards.
I have benefited from these sessions.
Thanks

Very personalized, exercises in a pool at the perfect temperature with instructors who give clear and very personalized instructions to help regain strength and mobility. It has worked wonders for me.

As a personal injury attorney in O.C. for over 42 years, I've been familiar with literally dozens of P.T. facilities in South O.C. - some good, some ok, and some not good. I was referred to So. Cal. Aquatic & Physical Therapy Center by my Newport Beach ortho. surgeon. GOOD CALL! Very professionally run by Dr. Julie. All therapists and assistants were knowledgeable. I had 2 successive foot surgeries and needed much therapy on each foot over the course of many months. Tim in the aquatic pool area was outstanding, and very focused/organized in his regimen. Avanti and Alex were well qualified and I didn't miss a beat when they worked on me. Even assistants Nancy and Ali were as good as many actual therapists I've encountered. But top kudos have to go to Karen, who is, hands down, the best therapist I've ever dealt with. She's 20+ years in her practice - - it shows. Anyone with lower extremity issues (her specialty) would do very well to see her, but you need to book her for 2 weeks in advance, because the secret's out - - she is in high demand. The facility is spotless, and everyone has such a positive attitude. Truly, this place is the little gem on Beach Blvd near the 405 frwy.!

Great facility and staff. Staff is knowledgeable, experienced and takes the time to evaluate your situation and provide beneficial therapy. Strength in my damaged shoulders has increased significantly since I started going to Southern California Aquatic and Physical Therapy.

Friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. All the staff are amazing! I love this place. I’ve had low back problems for years and have been to a few physical therapy clinics in L.A. and Orange Counties. Southern California Aquatic is by far the very best! I especially love that they offer both traditional physical therapy and a pool which was extremely beneficial in my recovery.

I bring my daughter here and it has really been helping her. She feels comfortable and trusts the helpful staff. We tried another Aqua therapy when our insurance changed but we immediately came back here.

I do not have enough words to express the gratitude and great feeling I have from this therapy. Everyone is wonderful: from the front desk all the way to the Physical Therapists. I had started there in February and now we are in March, the improvement is amazing. The knowledge and professionalism is beyond words. The physical therapists and aids dedication makes me feel so good. I had shared with many people about this place and with my physician about my great personal progress. I could write pages and pages about all of you. Thank you so much for paying attention at how I do each exercise, correcting me if I am doing anything wrong. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me and as I see with each individual patient. I could write a review every single time I have been there because I had never ever left this place feeling bad, physically and emotionally improved challenging me as well. I am thanking you for taking such a great care of me. Believe me that your efforts do not go unnoticed and from friends to many physicians I make sure they know who you are, my doctor is in Torrance. Dr. Rippling and he is very happy I had found such a great place and awesome therapists and every person who knows what I have been going through. May God or whomever you believe in, blessed you and your families always!! With lots of love and appreciation, Silvia

So Cal Aquatic & Physical Therapy is an excellent way for injury rehab. The staff is polite, patient, knowledgeable, congenial & professional. I feel Aquatic Therapy should be prescribed early on during healing. It would save time, money & expedite the road to recovery as it would saving costs to agencies & pain endurance to patients.

The entire staff at SoCal aquatic and p/t is so caring and knowledgeable about my needs they have helped me to meet and even exceed my goals I can’t describe my excitement for returning to work It was really the hardest challenge I’ve conquered in the last 10 years but the whole staff was right there cheering me on so I wouldn’t quit THANK YOU SOCAL AQUATIC PHYSICAL THERAPY I COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOU ! Camia is the first face you see when you enter and the last face you see on the way out SHE IS THE FRONT DESK GODDESS

Where do I begin?!? What an AMAZING experience it has been... this is a next level Aquatic and PT facility!

I have utilized the pool through my post-surgical recovery for the last several months. The staff is stellar! Kind, professional, knowledgeable - they really care about their patients!

I feel so much better and even though I am still an active patient here, all of my successes have been tailored by a great team! 👍 Please pat yourselves on the back for a job well done (Tim, Jamie, Kyle, Avante and Sofia!).

The lead PT, Karen, is super awesome too. I've had a few setbacks (due to ME overdoing outside of PT) and she's been a wonderful helping hand to walk me through my tears (Tim too actually l!), redirect me and provide guidance when I need to slow it down.

Lastly, thank you Dr. Bergmann, for running an amazing facility, super clean, cutting edge and also hiring the right individuals for their respective jobs! Most importantly, for your knowledge and kindness!

If you want the BEST of the BEST, I highly recommend and encourage you to wait no longer. This is the SPOT for all your PT needs!

Thank you all, I am very grateful for each and every one of you. ❤

The Southern California aquatic and physical therapy is like a second home. Everyone there are the nicest most patient and understanding people I’ve ever met. Everyone also has an amazing sense of humor that never fails to make people, including myself, laugh which helps takes the mind off the pain. It’s such a friendly environment it makes you feel like you’re part of a family, with the staff and the other people in the pool. This is the best aquatic and physical therapy to go to! Trust me you won’t regret it!

I was willing to drive 30 minutes each way three times a week for the PT specialist that my husband had used previously and loved. I had total need replacement surgery at the end of September and had 12 weeks to be as close to 100% before we were embarking on a big trip out of the country. I showed up on my first day to find out she was leaving. I was sad and concerned that I might not have a great therapist and had to decide if I should try to go to a place closer to where I lived. I decided to give it a week or two before changing and I'm THRILLED I stayed. The new therapist, Karen Houston, started on my second PT appointment. She came with 20+ years' experience and specialized in knees. She knew my situation and felt confident from the beginning that I would get there - even when I wasn't sure. I had 31 sessions and each one Karen pushed me to my limits - to do more, to do better, and encouraged me every session. She was there when I felt like I lost progress over the weekend. She motivated me and ensured that my healing was normal, and I was on track. Karen built upon my exercises every session and kept them challenging and a few were even fun. All the assistants and staff that work there are very good and a close-knit bunch. I never needed the aqua therapy aspects, but my husband had, and this was one of the reasons I selected coming here in case I would need it. After 8 weeks I turned the corner and could really see that I was going to get to reach my goals. And at 12 weeks, I had exceeded my surgeon's goals and felt that I was leaving PT near 100%. Now we are off to take that wonderful trip of a lifetime! Thank you Karen!

I have been to a couple of different places for physical therapy over the past couple years and none have worked for me. A family member recommended the Southern California Aquatic and Physical therapy and I am finally healing and feeling confident in my treatment!!!! Everyone there is so nice and encouraging! The personalized care is amazing; I have never been to a physical therapy center where I actually felt listened to and acknowledged for how I felt, and here I always do. The staff are there is very dedicated to their work and their patients and make genuine connections to ensure the best possible care as well as comfortability! Again, such a friendly and upbeat environment!!! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for physical therapy!

Southern California Aquatic and Physical Therapy and the Team there were a beneficial, compassionate and positive force in my recovery process!
Peyton is a gem; her attention to detail and personalized treatment plan emboldened my confidence to do hard things and not back down from the many challenges on the path to my recovery. The whole team there exudes a positivity, empathy and friendliness that is often absent in medical offices unfortunately. I highly recommend their services! Stay committed to excellence!

Aqua Therapy has been a awesome experience with this establishment. The staff is top notch. Therapy hurts but this team truly cares about all patients. I couldn’t step up a curve when I arrived, now I can climb 3 flights of stairs. Shoutout to the staff..you will be missed.
