Physical Therapy
Physical therapy at Movement Performance Institute (MPI) combines evidence-based rehabilitation with advanced biomechanical analysis to identify and treat the underlying causes of musculoskeletal pain and movement dysfunction. Rather than focusing solely on symptom relief, our approach uses objective movement assessment to develop individualized treatment plans that improve function, reduce pain, and help prevent future injury.
Our physical therapy program is grounded in the principles of clinical biomechanics, the study of how the body moves and how movement patterns influence joint loading, muscle function, and injury risk. Through comprehensive biomechanical evaluation, we identify movement impairments that may contribute to persistent pain or delayed recovery, allowing treatment to be tailored to each patient's specific needs.
Many patients seek care at MPI after experiencing recurring symptoms or limited improvement with previous treatment. By incorporating objective movement analysis into the rehabilitation process, we can identify factors such as altered movement mechanics, joint loading patterns, muscle weakness, or asymmetrical movement that may be contributing to ongoing pain or dysfunction.
Treatment is provided at our clinical facility in El Segundo, where patients receive one-on-one care from the MPI team. We provide physical therapy for a wide range of orthopedic and sports medicine conditions, including:
- Knee pain, including patellofemoral pain and ACL rehabilitation
- Hip pain and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
- Foot and ankle conditions, including plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinopathy
- Low back pain
- Running-related injuries
- Post-operative rehabilitation
- Return-to-sport rehabilitation
- Movement and performance optimization
