Manual Orthopedic Physical Therapy was established in 2002 with the goal of providing a comprehensive, individualized approach to patient care that focuses on function and education to support patient outcomes. Today, our practice is comprised of over a dozen physical and occupational therapists with many years of experience who treat a wide variety of patients and conditions.
Our comprehensive approach to patient care includes:
- An initial 60-minute evaluation where you are able to speak one-on-one with a member of our staff who evaluates your condition and creates an individualized therapeutic exercise program just for you.
- Each subsequent visit will be conducted by the same physical or occupational therapist to focus on your goals and provide continuity between appointments.
- Every visit is tailored to provide you with the highest level of care possible, which means providing you with stretches and exercises you can do at home, as well as educational information about your condition.
We are proud to be members of the communities where our offices are located, which is why we have partnered with various organizations throughout the area to offer a wide range of additional services. Our affiliations include:
- Southwestern College, where MOPT provides physical therapy to injured athletes.
- The Southwest Sports and Wellness Foundation enables us to provide no-cost injury clinics to high school students throughout the football season and low-cost pre-participation sports screenings, in addition to placing athletic trainers at each football game in the Sweetwater Union High School District.
- BodyWise Acupuncture and Total Wellness provides acupuncture services in our Rancho del Rey clinic Monday through Friday, with appointments made in our Eastlake clinic on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
- Our membership with the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce allows us to meet other community leaders, get involved in local issues and events, and create strategic collaborations.

I am very happy. I feel very fortunate that I select Joe for my physical therapy, which make my leg recovered very fast and well. He is one of the best therapist I have every met. Beyond his therapy in facility, he also gives me the home self-care skill and tricks for my leg, my back-pain and belly muscle. his and his team have the great skills and best service. they are very kind, care and patient. Again, thanks very much for the therapy treatment, and thanks for everything! -------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Post: I want to write review again for Joe. I am so glad that he is my PT. Actually, He is more than a PT. He is very knowledgable and has fantistic healing skills. I had femur fracture and become his patient. During my theraphy period, I often have some new syndroms in different place of my leg, knee or hips: pain or not moving well.... But I cannot tell, what cause the problem. When I told him these syndromes, he will use his special methods, to diagnose and pinpoint my problems, and then give me some special therapy treatment. Sometime, the problem went away just after one therapy! Not only healing, he also explain me in quite convince and easy understandable words about what is my problem and how should I avoid it. And not only Joe, his staff is also quite good. I am so glad that I select Joe as my therapist! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st post: I am very glad that I select this PT clinic.
