General Practitioners

Arthritis
Fibromyalgia
Plantar Fasciitis
Pediatric Care
Due to its continued growth, in early 2018 the clinic moved to the Plaza at Golden Valley shopping center. Beautifully designed to accommodate everything from treatment tables and training equipment, the expansive open space serves a variety of patients from pediatrics and athletes to those recovering from injuries or suffering from chronic pain. The clinic also has multiple ASTYM Certified Clinicians onsite to help foster healthier connective tissue and long term healing of muscles and tendons. With a full array of Biodex machines and isokinetic strengthening and testing apparatus, therapists can accurately measure muscle and tendon functionality. With their equipment and analysis they can also understand better how soon areas of injury can recover.

Radiologist

Ultrasound
Ultrasound is another form of heat and is a modality that can be used to help you with pain and promote tissue healing. Ultrasound uses sound waves to generate heat within a body part, which increases overall circulation to the targeted tissues. Increased circulation promotes tissue healing, prepares muscles and tissues for activity, and may also decrease inflammation.
Iontophoresis
A treatment modality for inflamed joint and/or various soft and connective tissues. It can be utilized as a substitute to steroid injections and other anti-inflammatory treatments. Iontophoresis has been used effectively to treat tendonitis, bursitis, and arthritis. An electrical stimulator and electrodes (containing anti-inflammatory medication) produce a small electrical current which is placed over injured tissue(s). When the current is turned on the medication is pushed away from the electrode and into the affected area. Iontophoresis requires a specific prescription from a Medical Doctor because of the medication being applied. Iontophoresis is not covered by most insurance companies and therefore a surcharge may be applied to receive this treatment.

Erik authored an article “A Rite of Passage: Surviving Initiation to the ICU” which appeared in Acute Care Perspectives. Additionally, he co-authored a rehabilitation chapter in a medical textbook, Hip and Pelvis Injuries in Sports Medicine. Mr. Wolpert has observed most orthopedic surgery procedures firsthand and used those experiences to aide his clients to maximize recovery post operatively. He enjoys working with post-operative cases and has extensive experience in non-operative and post-operative shoulders, elbows, wrist, knees, hips, ankle and foot, and spine cases and likes to collaborate with physicians on the client’s care. Erik is ASTYM certified and holds a certificate in CPR.
Reconstructive Surgery
The facility, designed to feel open, airy and friendly, is equipped with a rehabilitation-grade total gym which allows for individuals to gradually strengthen injured areas using a gravity-reducing system. The clinic also has multiple ASTYM Certified Clinicians onsite to help foster healthier connective tissue and long term healing of muscles and tendons. With state of the art modalities, electric stimulation and cold therapeutic laser treatment available, therapists can help speed recovery for everything from reconstructive surgery, total joint replacements and spinal related disorders to sprains and strains, arthritic conditions and general deconditioning. Clinicians take great interest and pride in providing individualized and active rehabilitation programs for each client with an emphasis on education for self management and injury prevention.

Physical Therapists

The Northridge Vargo PT facility is a comprehensive clinical practice providing high-quality physical therapy services for patients with orthopedic and muscular issues, those in need of post operative care, or rehabilitation like elbow rehabilitation or shoulder rehabilitation, from sports or industrial related injuries.
Neck Pain
Back Pain
Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic Therapy is often used in the treatment of patients with osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and post surgical movement and weight bearing restrictions. Aquatic Therapy utilizes the principles buoyancy and viscosity of water to allow you to facilitate you rehabilitation. Buoyancy allows for weight bearing activities while not allowing full body weight compression through your joints while performing exercise. The viscosity of the water provides resistance to movements during exercise that helping to improve strength.
Manual Therapy
Joint mobilization is a manual therapeutic treatment technique used to manage musculoskeletal dysfunction. It promotes movement in stagnant tissues and joints by oscillating or providing a traction force to the joint in specific directions, to increase joint mobility. Specific joint mobilizations can target joints with decreased mobility due to mechanical dysfunction, prolonged immobilization following injury and/or surgery. This increased joint mobility helps to promote normal range of motion and return to function.

Podiatrists

Ankle Sprain
A California native, Dr. Comrie’s interest in sports therapy stemmed from his longtime passion for sport itself. After an ankle injury ended his collegiate soccer career at the University of California, Irvine, he turned his focus to completing his bachelor’s of arts degree in social sciences with a minor in biological sciences. An internship at the Tustin Rehabilitation Hospital solidified his interest in the medical field, which led him to enter into and complete his doctorate in physical therapy at Mount St. Mary’s College and to become a great sports physical therapist.
Plantar Fasciitis
The clinic has a large, open floor plan and welcomes a diverse mix of patients from athletes and dancers to those suffering from chronic pain. The Sherman Oaks facility offers a number of services including laser therapy which is effective in relieving pain for a wide variety of issues including rheumatoid arthritis, acute and chronic neck pain, joint disorders, lower back pain and more. Therapists can administer ASTYM therapy, which is commonly used in sports injuries in order to cut down rehabilitation time, especially with plantar fasciitis and Achilles injuries.
