Physical Therapy in Universal City, CA

Hands On Care for Performers, Crew & Active Adults

Universal City sits at one of the busiest crossroads in the San Fernando Valley – a hilltop community shaped by the studios, the theme park, and the constant flow of professionals who keep the entertainment industry running. The people who live and work here put real demands on their bodies, whether that’s twelve hour days on set, long shifts on your feet at the park, performing or stunt work, or simply trying to stay active through a schedule that never quite slows down.

Strike Physiotherapy & Performance is just minutes from Universal City, offering one-on-one, hands on physical therapy that fits the way you actually live and work. Every session is led by a Doctor of Physical Therapy no shared rooms, no rotating techs, no insurance driven shortcuts. We build the visit around your goals and your schedule.

Who We Help In Universal City, California

Our Universal City patients include a mix you won’t find at most clinics performers, dancers, and stunt professionals managing the wear of a physical career; theme park employees and CityWalk staff dealing with chronic back, hip, and foot pain from long shifts; studio crew battling neck, shoulder, and lower back issues from heavy gear and long days; and entertainment executives squeezing recovery in between meetings.

We also see plenty of runners and hikers from the area, lifters from local gyms, and post surgical patients who want a more focused, personalized rehab experience than they’re getting through traditional clinics particularly after ACL, rotator cuff, meniscus, and labral repairs.

Why Universal City, CA Patients Choose Strike PT

Burbank patients consistently tell us the same thing: they came to us because they were tired of being told to “just stop running” or “just rest it.” Our approach is the opposite. We find the root cause, address it with hands on care and targeted exercise, and build you back stronger than before so the problem doesn’t return.

Because we’re out of network and cash pay, we’re not constrained by what insurance will approve. Sessions are longer, more focused, and tailored entirely to your goals , whether that’s getting back to your CrossFit class, finishing the LA Marathon, or just being pain free at your desk.
