EXCELLENT PT!! I went to DS Physical Therapy to get my wrist, hand, and arm moving again after having surgery on a broken wrist and being in a cast for about a month and a half. I was really glad I did. I started out with no strength, movement or torque whatsoever, so I was scared to death. But I went in 2-3 times a week for almost an hour each time, sometimes a bit more than an hour, as instructed. That included: warmups with various pieces of equipment and very light hand weights, those musical Chinese medicine balls or marbles that you roll around in your hands, Diane's or Sarah's massage and gradual pressure to break up the stiffness caused by scar tissue, and 15 minutes or so ice pack treatment and electronic pulsation after Diane (the owner) or Sarah (whenever Diane was unavailable) was done with me. Both physical therapists talk to you the entire time, asking you questions, telling you what they're doing, telling you what you should do yourself when you're not actually in their office, and they take measurements for range of motion (and strength - yes, they can calculate that too!) from time to time so that both you and they can see what your progress is. I'm telling you, I was a new person a couple of months later when my PT was over. Those two ladies have two completely different techniques, but together they got me moving again! And I got about 90% of my strength back! Of course I did what they told me to in between visits (the various stretches), so that helped too. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and personable, they're a great team. Great treatment and results. The only ding is for the parking situation. There's enough room, but just barely.

These guys are the masters of healing. After my accident, I was left with reduced mobility in my left shoulder and was unable to raise my arm even so much as over my head. But after a few visits to DS Physical Therapy I had noticed a marked improvement and today have recovered fully thanks to the kind, courteous and professional team who treated me. They were very thorough and evaluated my condition with pinpoint accuracy and developed a treatment tailored to my needs. I can't thank them enough for taking such good care of me and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs rehabilitation.

Best Physical Therapist in the South Bay. I have been coming to see Diane and her staff on and off for several years now. Everyone is always so nice and friendly. When I come and to get treatment, I know that I would be getting the best care. I always recommend Diane to my family and friends whenever they need a physical therapist.

Nicest Physical Therapy Office Around!!!!. If you are looking for more than just a place that could help you out after you just got surgery, had a bad car accident, have too much headaches induced by stress, or simply need some PT care--- this is the place for you. I came here for my neck pains, and found more than just help. I found some really nice people who I can call friends! Thanks a bunch Diane, Syd, Sara, Young, Ken, Craig, Debi, and Ngoc!

Overworked with little to no explanation.. The facilites are lacking. Diane, who is the D in D S seemed to be knowledgeable, but didn't have time to explain anything to me. I asked her a number of times to do so, but the explanations were glossy and rushed. She was on her cell phone with a travel agent for part of my session. I was then passed off to one girl, who i think was an assistant. She then passed me off to someone else who i thought was the secretary, but it turns out that the secretary wasn't in. The "room" i was in wasn't really a room, more like a curtained off space, except the curtain was not drawn. Decide for yourself, but this was not what i was expecting.

Great Staff. I love this place. The people are friendly and nice. Sara does my therapy, she rocks. She fixes places you didn't know you were hurting and you feel great afterwards. Only problem I wish I can go everyday but I can't.
