Los Angeles, CA · The staff
One therapist treats you. Every single visit.
Jason Ferine, MSPT, runs every evaluation and every session himself: one-on-one, hands-on, start to finish. No rotating cast of aides.
The standard I hold myself to.
The license is the entry fee, not the finish line. What actually matters happens at the evaluation: can I explain, in plain language, what’s actually wrong and why, to someone who has never heard the word “biomechanics” in their life. If I can’t do that at the evaluation, the rest of the plan doesn’t matter yet.
That’s also why every visit stays with me. Handing you off partway through a plan to whoever’s free tends to produce generic treatment: a shoulder protocol handed to a knee, general strengthening handed to a joint that actually needed to move first, before it needed to get strong. Your evaluation, not the calendar, decides the plan, and I’m the one holding it start to finish.

Manual Therapy & Corrective Exercise
Jason Ferine, MSPT, treats every evaluation like the real appointment, not the paperwork standing in front of it. He earned his physical therapy degree from Quinnipiac University and started practicing in 2007, in skilled nursing and rehabilitation settings on the East Coast before relocating to Los Angeles and moving into outpatient care, aquatic rehabilitation, and fitness training. He later served as assistant clinic director at a physical therapy practice in Santa Monica before opening his own hybrid PT and fitness studio in Westwood in 2016. His continuing education includes Functional Movement Systems, the Selective Functional Movement Assessment, myofascial decompression (cupping), and motivational interviewing, and his treatment stays centered on hands-on manual therapy: the belief that hands still find things imaging and questionnaires miss.
What every visit looks like.
If you read staff bios before booking anywhere, that’s not fussiness. That’s good judgment. Hands-on care means an actual person’s hands, and knowing whose they are before you show up is a reasonable thing to want, and exactly why this page exists.
Every evaluation starts cause-first, not symptom-first. Every plan moves through the same four phases, Pain, Prime, Perform, Prevent, in that order. Every visit is hands-on and one-on-one, the whole 40 minutes, with me, no handoff to somebody else partway through. And at the evaluation, I’ll tell you, out loud, roughly how many visits this should take and what “finished” is going to look like.
Book your evaluation. I’ll take it from there.

Five short questions. Our virtual assistant typically responds the same business day but may take up to 24 hours.
The people who end up filling this out are rarely in the worst pain of their life. They’re just done working around it, done picking the errand that doesn’t require the stairs. If that’s the stage you’re at, this is the part where you stop researching and start.
