Evolution Physical Therapy & Fitness - Irvine

I came to Evolution about 2 months ago to treat a recurring lower back injury originally caused by jiu jitsu. Since working consistently with Riley each week, I’ve gone from near-constant back pain and unable to enjoy my favorite activities (jiu jitsu, lifting, even walking my dogs) to being almost completely symptom free. He listens to and addresses my symptoms / concerns, tracks my progress, and has helped me progress with a mindset of focusing on what I can do rather than what I can’t. The in-office treatments and at home exercises have allowed me to get back on the mat pain free. Would definitely recommend Evolution and Riley specifically for anyone who needs PT treatment.

From the start, Evolution Physical Therapy is very professional and addressed all my concerns. They even got Riley my PT to talk to me and answer my questions over the phone before making an appointment. I’m dealing with a difficult knee injury, but Riley puts me at ease with his knowledge and patience. He always listens to me and makes me feels cared for as a patient. I still have a long road to recovery but feels that I’m at good hands with Riley.

Noticeable progress within a month. Felt really great to move again. Excellent friendly service from Riley

If you’re an athlete and looking for a PT to support you with sports-focused rehab that doesn’t overlook the foundations, look no further. I couldn’t be more thankful for the care I’ve received from Thomas at Evolution in Irvine! Their one-on-one care is thorough, creative, comprehensive, and relational. After a year of feeling stuck with PT for an ACL tear, I’m finally making progress towards my goal of playing soccer again because of their attention to details that have previously been overlooked. I have hope again that I can come back stronger than ever! I feel encouraged to give feedback, challenged to push myself, and encouraged in my PT journey. And, you’re sure to have a good laugh anytime you come in with these guys—what more could you ask for?

Riley and Thomas are the absolute best. The guys put together a comprehensive plan to get me back to playing hockey after back surgery. They customized for wherever my aches and pains were ailing me at the time and, more importantly, explained what were were trying to accomplish with each. Great environment at Evolution also with the gym right on premises. Can't recommend them enough!

Having experienced a variety of Physical Therapy facilities I cannot say enough about both Riley and Thomas at Evolution Therapy. I saw Riley within a week of having knee surgery. He offered the perfect balance of compassion and understanding while encouraging me to meet my goals of PT.Both Riley and Thomas’s personal hands-on approach is refreshing after going through multiple facilities where the therapist meets with you for minutes and then passes you off to a junior therapist. They both genuinely care about your progress and work with you every step of the way. I cannot say enough about the two of them and strongly recommend them.

Such a great PT place! Had an ACL tear last year and got my knee back to normal! Thanks again, would highly recommend.

Been going for a few weeks to see Thomas at Evolution and it's been great. Thomas knows what he's doing and I'm finally dealing with this shoulder injury and recovering.

Thomas is amazing at what he does. From barely able to walk for 5mins now I am strong enough to take hour long walks and still not feel any pain in my back. I definitely feel stronger and my back doesn't bother me much anymore. I definitely recommend him and evolution physical therapy.
