I highly recommend this physical therapy clinic for its welcoming, professional environment and personalized care. The entire staff created such a positive, can-do atmosphere that made every session feel encouraging and motivating. Each session challenged me at the right pace, helping me steadily regain strength and flexibility. The team also taught me how to maintain my progress after therapy. I’m especially grateful to Mike, Ben, and Gia—they are amazing! Their expertise, encouragement, and support made a meaningful difference in my recovery. I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking compassionate, high quality care.

Would absolutely recommend this location to friends and family. I first found Dr. Renninger after thorough research for a Physical therapist in San Diego That specializes in treatment of injuries for athletes and regular gymgoers. Right from the start and the initial assessment, Dr. Renninger was sure to take his time and thoroughly understand my background, including exercise, nutrition, sleep, and functional movements, which is exactly what I was looking for. Using this context he was able to implement a very effective treatment plan, specifically noting to keep it concise and achievable on a daily basis, especially with a busy schedule. Extremely content with the results. My 6-week follow-up for my shoulder assessment went exactly as planned and I've now been able to return to all of the activities and, more specifically, exercises that I was able to do before. Great team, very clean facility with updated equipment, and easily accessible location.

The entire team at this location is so kind and professional. Yvette at the front desk is always happy to help. Levi is kind, knowledgeable and funny! He helped explain what was happening with my neck and shoulder and reassured me I would be well with the right treatment and he was right. Mo always encouraged me and kept me informed about my exercises in an easy to remember and understand way, and towards the end of my treatment I was confident enough to take care of my neck and shoulder. The entire staff is honestly awesome because they’re all kind, gentle, informative, and helpful. I miss y’all!

I have been a patient at Spine & Sport for quite awhile now. My improvement has been remarkable. It is due to the wonderful people who work their under the direction of Levi Reninger, PT, DPT, Clinic Director and Givanna Pergolini, PT, DPT who perform comprehensive intake and write the treatment plans. The Physical Therapy Assistants are all very experienced and meticulous in their execution of the treatment plans. I am so lucky that my Pain Management Specialist referred to Spine & Sport at the Gaslamp location. The added bonus is that I can walk there as it is just a few blocks from my condo.

Commonly Asked Questions & What to Expect During Your PT Treatment

Do I need to see a doctor first?

Thanks to direct access, we can see any patient without a referral from a doctor for an initial evaluation. If our therapists believe that physical therapy is a good option for your needs, we can work with you and your physician to obtain a prescription for continued care. If your diagnosis requires additional expertise, we can also refer you to a specialist to handle your care.

What do I need to bring to my first visit?

For your first visit, be sure to bring the following items:

  • Prescription for physical therapy from your referring physician (if applicable)
  • Government issued photo ID (such as a driver’s license)
  • Insurance card(s)
  • Patient forms, which can be downloaded from this site in PDF format. Print and fill out the forms completely and bring them during your first visit.
  • Patients who are minors (under 18 years of age) must be accompanied by a parent or guardian for their first visit.

What should I wear to physical therapy?

Please wear or bring comfortable athletic/workout clothing to change into. This includes shorts or sweatpants, a t-shirt and sneakers. Your attire should also allow easy access to your injured area for treatment by your physical therapist.

What can I expect during my first visit?

During your first visit, your therapist will perform a thorough examination, in which he or she will review your physician’s recommendations, examine the problem area, ask questions about your injury or pain, develop an effective treatment plan for rehabilitation, discuss their findings with you and answer any questions you may have. Your treatment plan may include hands-on, manual therapy, a customized exercise program, stretching and physical agents such as heat, ice, ultrasound and electrical stimulation. Your physical therapist may also recommend a home program to further assist in your treatment.

How long will my appointment take?

Your first appointment will typically last from 45 minutes to an hour and a half, depending on your injury. Following appointments usually last between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on the treatment. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of your appointment for check-in and paperwork. You can also download our patient forms, which can be filled out beforehand and brought with to your appointment.

How often will I need to come?

The frequency of your treatment will depend on your physician’s prescription and the plan of care developed by your physical therapist. Most patients require treatment two to three times per week. The duration of treatment will depend on your injury and personal progress. Your physical therapist will discuss this with you following your initial exam and subsequently as you progress.

What if I need to cancel an appointment?

If you are unable to attend an appointment, we require at least 24 hours' notice. However, we do understand than an occasional emergency or illness may arise, in which case you may have to cancel your appointment closer to your scheduled time.

Do you accept insurances? Will insurance cover my therapy?

We accept most major insurances including Medicare, Tricare and workers’ compensation plans. Before your initial visit, we will verify in and out of network benefits with your insurance company. The cost of therapy is determined by the benefits of your insurance plan, including the deductible and co-pay, or patient percentage. We are happy to check with your insurance company to determine the terms of your coverage. Payment for patient responsibility is due at the time of service.
