When Dr. Chris starts one of his speeches in the clinic and everyone’s locked in like it’s the greatest motivational talk ever… πŸŽ€πŸ˜‚

plot twist… he might just be borrowing a few lines from a movie.

Whether it’s a movie quote or not, the message is real. So many people are dealing with chronic pain in their shoulders, hips, knees, and feet and don’t realize there are regenerative therapy options that can actually help them heal and stay active.

If you want to learn how regenerative therapies like Focused Shockwave and Radial Shockwave can help with things like shoulder pain, plantar fasciitis, and more, we’re breaking it all down at our upcoming workshop.

πŸ“ Chula Vista Location
πŸ“… March 18th
⏰ 6:00–7:30pm

Yes… we actually use our gym equipment as a gym too πŸ˜…

If your hips could talk… they’d probably say please stop making me do this. πŸ˜…

Every step hurts.
Stairs feel personal.
And sitting too long or moving too fast both seem like bad ideas.

When hip pain starts running your daily life, it’s usually a sign the joint needs real healing, not just stretching it out and hoping it goes away.

Our Story

Established in 2014, Sports Performance Physical Therapy was founded by Dr. Chris Garcia - one of San Diego's leading Physical Therapy specialists, former therapist to professional athletes for the United States Olympic Committee and NFL combine training program, and a nationally recognized public speaker. Dr. Chris has been helping people just like you for years get back to exercising and doing the things they love so they can live an active and healthy lifestyle. After years of traveling around the world to care for professional athletes, Dr. Chris founded Sports Performance Physical Therapy to bring this vast experience and knowledge back to his local San Diego community. Born and raised in San Ysidro, a suburb of San Diego, Chris came from humble beginnings and wanted to contribute to the south bay community. We believe people should have easy access to world-class care to help them stay healthy, active and fit.

We are a physical therapy clinic in Chula Vista, CA that specializes in helping people just like you relieve pain, prevent injury and improve performance so they can live healthy and active lives. Whether you're looking for a specialist who understands rest is not the solution, you've been let down by other facilities through your insurance, or you're frustrated with pain limiting your exercise routine, Sports Performance is the BEST option for you! At Sports Performance Physical Therapy, we love to help teenagers and people in their 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's and above, get back to living the life they deserve. Which means a life free from painkillers, where you don't have to worry about bothering the doctor, and dangerous surgeries. We get you back to doing and enjoying all the things you love, without the fear of pain holding you back.
