I have never been to a physical therapy facility with more knowledge, compassion and care than California Rehabilitation! As a runner/competitor I am at risk of injuries and I ended up with numerous injuries in my left leg, my doctor prescribed medication but California Rehabilitation has worked with me and identifying the exact injuries I have and has been amazing in treating each injury and created a plan specifically for me to get me back up and running!
