Spine & Sport Physical Therapy - Sacramento - Sacramento, California

Mohammad Mohammadi

I have been to Spine & Sport Physical Therapy for over two months and I feel like I have never been injured. My Therapist “ Glen” who was so professional and experienced helped me through my recovery and it was awesome. Thank you Glen and Spine & Sport Physical Therapy for giving me the confidence to play soccer again.

I completed a series of sessions at Spine & Sport Physical Therapy in Sacramento for my left knee pain. I am sharing my experience in the hope that it may assist others considering this facility.
1. Staff Interaction: The staff were consistently friendly and courteous.
2. Experience Level: While the staff were young and well-intentioned, I felt that the center lacked experienced supervision. It might benefit from having a more experienced professional overseeing the treatments.
3. Treatment Protocol: The treatments offered included use of gym machines, ice packs, and muscle cream. Despite attending 15 sessions, I did not experience any improvement.
4. Cost and Insurance Issues: The total expense amounted to approximately $5,000. I paid $1,200 out-of-pocket, with the remainder covered by insurance. Initially, I was informed that the insurance would cover all costs; however, I received unexpected bills later. This lack of clarity was problematic.
5. Treatment Discrepancies: The treatments provided did not align with the doctor’s prescription, as some recommended treatments were not administered.
6. Patient Management: At times, the center managed multiple patients simultaneously, leading to limited attention for each individual. On one occasion, I was accommodated despite arriving late.
7. Cost Comparison: After reviewing various educational videos on knee pain, I began utilizing a local gym, which costs approximately $500 annually, in conjunction with homemade ice packs. This approach has resulted in significant improvement and is considerably more economical than the treatments provided at the center.
8. Specialized Care: Given my specific situation—pain in my left knee due to a disability in my right leg—the treatments did not address my unique needs and used a generic approach that was not effective.
9. Overall Assessment: I believe that the cost of $5,000 for basic treatments is excessive, and the methods employed seemed outdated compared to current practices. For non-severe issues, a more cost-effective solution involving gym access and self-administered treatments may be preferable.
I hope these insights prove helpful to others seeking physical therapy services.

Great experience for my teenage son. Physical therapy can be hard to stick to, but he feels committed and engaged at this facility. The front desk staff is very helpful and patient with scheduling. I am impressed they have been able to make this so easy!

I sustained an ACL/meniscus tear in March of this year. The physical therapists worked with me to build up my strength before surgery so my recovery would be better, and then stuck with me and dealt with my stubborn butt all these months, holding me back so I didn't reinjure myself but building me every time I went in. They stylized the exercises to fit what I do for work and made it fun as well as challenging, and they keyed in to my competitive nature and used that to all of our advantage. I have always looked forward to going, because even on the days I wasn't feeling my best I still managed to improve. It's been 7 months since surgery and I was 99% on the LSI test and it was fun to celebrate with the folks who have been with me at my worst and have seen me through. Thank you guys.

They were always accommodating with scheduling. I went to the midtown location. The place was small and at times felt cramped but still comfortable. Glenn was very knowledgeable and was easy going. He made the sessions fun by adding variety of exercises that were challenging.

Today was graduation day!! Whoo hoo!

I started coming to Spine and Sport in October 2023 following a rotator cuff surgery on my right shoulder. From day one, the team here has been fantastic! Anthony, Fabi, Kevin, Jen, Mark … to name only a few of the great team at this location.

To have the best experience and recovery as possible, I suggest one thing. Do your exercises… it’s that simple. The team will progress you according to your abilities. They will help you, but you must do your part.

As the manager of a wholesale grocer, I have over 300 employees and one of my pet peeves is timeliness. Please be respectful of the PT staff and other patients/clients by being on time. They know that you may be moving a little slower due to your injuries, but there are other patients/clients that make great efforts to be timely.

Thank you again Spine and Sport!! Hopefully I will not need to ever come back, but if I do, I would not hesitate to do so. God Bless you all!
