MEET Your physical THERAPIST

Ghadi Helou, DPT

My journey to becoming a physical therapist was born from my life as an athlete. From playing semi-pro soccer in Lebanon at 15 to competing at the Division 1 level, I learned firsthand how frustrating it is when pain or injury holds you back. This experience drove me to earn my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Boston's MGH Institute of Health Professions, so I could understand the root cause of physical limitations and help others regain control of their health. My practice is built on the belief that everyone deserves to move with confidence and live without pain.

THE HELOU DIFFERENCE

A Patient-First Philosophy: Our work is a partnership. We start by listening to your story to find the true source of your pain, creating a personalized plan that is tailored to your specific body and goals.

Expertise in Performance: My background gives me a special insight into the demands faced by athletes and lifters, allowing me to help them return to their sport and perform at their best.

Care for Everyone: Whether you're an elite athlete or are dealing with the aches of daily life, my mission is the same: to provide a clear path to recovery that empowers you to feel strong and confident in your body again.

Beyond Short-Term Fixes: My ultimate goal is not just to get you out of pain, but to empower you. I'll give you the knowledge and tools to understand your body, manage your health independently, and prevent future injuries so you can stay active for life.

TESTIMONIALS

Rezan L.

"The virtual program was a game-changer"

"With my busy work schedule, I could never consistently make it to a PT clinic for my persistent lower back pain. I was skeptical about virtual therapy, but it was incredibly effective. Ghadi was thorough, attentive, and gave me a simple, powerful routine I could do from home. He explained everything clearly, and I felt supported the entire time. I can now get through my workday without the constant ache."

Christian M.

"Finally lifting pain-free and hitting new PRs"

"I was dealing with a nagging shoulder injury for months and thought I'd have to give up lifting heavy. I'd tried other PTs, but nothing worked. Ghadi's approach was completely different. He came to my home, took the time to find the real root of the problem (which wasn't even my shoulder), and gave me a clear, personalized plan. His one-on-one attention made all the difference. I'm not just out of pain; I'm stronger and more stable than before."

Rayan H.

"Helped me recover from a knee injury"

"After a frustrating knee injury, I felt stuck and wasn't sure if I'd get back to my regular hikes and workouts. Working with Ghadi was the best decision I made. He didn't just give me exercises; he taught me how to understand my body and move better to prevent future issues. The convenience of the in-home sessions and his dedicated, expert approach helped me build confidence and get back to the activities I love, feeling more resilient than ever."

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn more about me and my process.

What exactly happens on the free consultation call?

This is a relaxed, 15-minute conversation for us to get to know each other. You'll have a chance to share what you've been experiencing and what your goals are. I'll listen, ask some questions, and explain my approach. There is no sales pressure and no obligation, it's simply our opportunity to see if we're a good fit to work together.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see you?

No. California is a "Direct Access" state, which means you can seek physical therapy without a physician's referral. This allows us to get started on your recovery sooner. If at any point I determine your condition requires a medical doctor's attention, I will refer you to the appropriate provider.

I've tried physical therapy before and it didn't work. How is your approach different?

Many of my patients have had that same experience. My approach is different in three key ways:

1. It's always one-on-one: You get my undivided attention for the entire session. No aides, no double-booking.

2. We find the root cause: I focus on discovering the "why" behind your pain, not just treating the symptoms, which leads to a long-term solution.

3. It's truly personalized: Your plan is built from the ground up specifically for your body, your lifestyle, and your unique goals.

How do I know if virtual or in-person care is right for me?

We can determine the best path for you on our discovery call, but a good guideline is:

In-Home (Los Angeles): Ideal if you prefer a hands-on approach with manual therapy or have a complex issue that benefits from in-person assessment and treatment.

Virtual: Perfect for busy individuals, those outside LA, or conditions that can be effectively managed through guided exercise, education, and movement analysis.

What kinds of conditions and injuries do you treat?

I treat a wide range of musculoskeletal issues, including back and neck pain, joint pain (shoulder, knee, hip), sports injuries, and post-operative recovery. I have a special focus on helping active individuals and lifters get back to performing at their best, but my mission is to help anyone looking to overcome pain and move with confidence.
