    I went to see Paula after several visits to a different physical therapist on Larchmont and was not getting the personal attention I needed (the receptionist was giving me PT exercises). I was 2 months post collar bone surgery after falling off my horse. When I see Paula I get 100% of her attention for the entire hour. During our therapy she came up with ways to mimic horse riding muscle movements. Every session was personalized to how I was feeling and what I needed to work on. I would recommend Paula to anyone.

    If you suffer from any form of physical pain, you need to see Dr. Paula.
    Dr. Paula provides a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment options based on her extensive knowledge and experience in all forms of physical therapy and alignment. She will spend the time to make sure you understand why you are in pain, and how to alleviate and correct the problem(s). Her easy-to-follow instructions will guide you to achieve strength and balance to the problematic areas specific to you.
    I drove down from the Bay Area to see Dr. Paula based on a recommendation from a friend, and it truly was worth it. I plan to see her whenever Im in the area, and Id highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking to resolve physical discomforts and chronic pain.

    I suffer from a chronic neck condition for five years now. I have tried chiropractic, acupuncture, rolfing, as well as other PT offices and nothing has helped me more, than Paula. She is extremely knowledgable about body mechanics and patterns of injury. Her hands know exactly where to go to help provide some relief. So many PT places just hook you up to an electric stim machine and then give you exercises to do. Her red cord exercises have been extremely helpful in gently rebuilding muscle. Her ultimate goal is to see you healed and not needing her office. I now have the hope that that will be me someday soon.

    Though Paula is out of my health network, I seeked her out based on her Graston specialization and overwhelmingly positive reviews. So far shes been alleviating my tendonitis and recommending take-home exercises to strengthen problematic areas, as well as addressing any issues that seem to pop up w/age. I highly recommend her.

    Dr. Paula has helped me tremendously over the past year and change. I came in nearly a year after a serious neck injury--I shouldnt have waited so long but was new to LA and scared to go to someone who might make it worse. Paula, a kind, personable, funny, and talented soul, not only used Red Cord to successfully rehabilitate my neck, but got to the underlying issues around how I use my neck muscles (I carry stress there) and gave me exercises and resistance bands to take home. I now take her group Red Cord classes as often as I can, and am feeling stronger than I have in years. Im so excited to get strong enough to go back to martial arts soon--its been an intimidating journey with my neck injury, and I feel safe and empowered now that Paula is leading me through it.

    Dr. Paula is beyond amazing. She has an extensive knowledge of the human body both through her education and experience as a Physical Therapist and Pilates/Red Cord instructor but also as a top athlete in her own right. Ive taken private Pilates for years and have had some really great instructors but no one compares to Dr. Paula. She is also a true, intuitive healer who can work with you to address problem areas. Finally, she is extremely high energy and makes every session fast and fun. If you are looking for a great PT or Pilates/Red Cord instructor, youve found her in Dr. Paula.
