Body Politic Physical Therapy - Irvine, California

Dr. Joey and his staff are amazing. I was having trouble with range of motion in my shoulder and Dr. Joey provided me with the best care.

He diagnosed me with "frozen shoulder" and was very thorough and knowledgeable. He answered all the questions I had ( I had a lotttt) and he was very patient. He had me practice a few exercises before I went home and I was able to practice them daily before seeing him again. My range of motion improved each time I saw Dr. Joey and I am about 90% now.

Other things that made my visit positive was that the office was easily accessible and parking was ample. Although the lot gets busy, there are plenty of spots.

I would recommend Dr. Joey 1000000%. Thank you so much for your care!!

Joey is beyond a great physical therapist! I've had chronic neck pain for years and Joey has helped me not only by finding the source of my pain, but also helping me to learn how to use my muscles the appropriate way. I once hit my jaw and had fluid in my ears and Joey was able to clear it and I felt the brain fog fade. Another time I had a migrating headache and Joey was able to figure out it was my facial nerve and I have not gotten a headache since. Joey has always been flexible with me and has always considered what my priorities are, even to helping me figure out how to do the proper squat or dead lift. If you want a hardworking and honest PT, Joey is your guy!

Joey and Angela are amazing! Their experience and personalized approach made a significant difference in my recovery of shoulder and neck pain. The sessions were not only effective but also educational, as he took the time to explain exercises and techniques. Joey is highly professional, empathetic, and dedicated to his patients' well-being. I would wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of physical therapy

This is my first physical therapy experience and I'm glad that I did it through Body Politic. Joey and Angela know their stuff! I mainly worked with Joey while my husband worked with Angela. I really appreciate that Joey is super informative and guides me throughout our sessions. He's helped me fix my posture/walk, relieve nerve tension, and overall lessen stress on my body but I know Joey and Angela can delve into so much more outside of that as well. Joey and Angela are very friendly, great to work with, and extremely knowledgeable so it makes me feel at ease knowing I'm in good hands! Strongly recommend!!!

I've had shoulder and ankle pain for ~10 years. I've been to many other PT clinics and Body Politic was the only one to get me moving without pain again! The patient experience is amazing, and you never feel like you're in a factory getting churned in and out for your sessions.

Dr. Lee worked with me and she was amazing! I loved how I wasn't evaluated and then just passed off to aides to do exercises like at other clinics. I received 1:1 care and a lot of manual therapy during my sessions, followed by learning the exercises so that I could do them at home.

I've seen a ton of progress and I feel prepared to continue my active hobbies! (basketball, hiking, weight lifting, etc). I highly recommend Body Politic and Dr. Lee for anyone in pain looking to get better.

Side note: they have the most comfortable pillows and ice packs. I had to get some for my own home

Joey and Angela are amazing - they really go above and beyond to listen, accommodate, and address all of your concerns. They truly care about your wellbeing and progress! They're experts in their field and take a holistic approach to your treatment. They've gone overtime plenty of times with me to make sure that everything is addressed and that I've properly learned all the exercises for that session. Can't recommend them enough—if you have any physical therapy needs and actually want a long term solution that not only helps your current issues but your body overall, go see Joey and Angela!

Dr. Luo is awesome!

I personally haven't had any experience with physical therapy and unlike a lot of people, I didn't go primarily to address a specific injury or issue. As a new dad, I wanted to just do a general check up on my body and make sure that I was aware and mindful of my body to prevent long term issues and pain based on the often neglected things like posture and simple exercises.

I was very appreciative of how attentive Dr. Luo was to my specific situation and desires and how he took the time to come up with a specific treatment plan catered to what I was hoping to achieve. I also loved how 'hands on' he is unlike other therapists I have heard of. Dr. Luo doesn't just throw a bunch of exercises at you but he really takes the time to maximize your time with him by teaching, educating and treating you until the very last minute.

After just a few sessions with him, I was surprised at how much more knowledgeable I was of my body and I am thankful to now have a strong foundation to build a physically healthier and more mindful lifestyle.

If you are on the fence about physical therapy like I was, I highly recommend you get a consultation with Dr. Luo and give it a try to see if it is right for you. He is very personable and not pushy at all and I am confident you will not regret it!

Dr. Luo really cares about his patients and takes the time to explain his work and what he doing. I have been struggling with lower back pain, neck pain, headaches and lots of nerve tension. Since seeing Dr. Luo, I have seen great results and have gained so much awareness of how my body functions and if I am using the correct muscles in my body. It is remarkable how much I dont know about my body and how much you can learn in each session. I am also 22 weeks pregnant and have been seeing Dr. Luo to help me with my hips, abs, and deep breathing to prepare for labor. I trust Dr. Luo and his practice and am planning to continue to see him even after labor to make sure my body is healing properly. Physical therapy with a Dr. Luo is not temporary, you will be left with permanent healing and content improvement as long as you continue to practice the exercises he assigns you!
