What Burbank Athletes Are Saying

Real stories from active adults and athletes who got clarity, built a plan, and got back to doing what they love.

Professional and eager to help! I always look forward to working with Dr. Lange!
Caroline Haymaker
Dylan really helped me with my hip — I felt like he understood the problem and came up with a progression of exercises over several weeks to improve my strength. He also looked into an issue I was having with soreness in my calf / shin splints. After every session, he sent videos of each exercise and a spreadsheet to keep me accountable. He is great at answering questions and is super knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
Elizabeth Melton
I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Dylan Lange. Due to a fall, I had to undergo surgery for a fractured hip, and despite numerous physiotherapy sessions, I was still suffering from pain, stiffness, and difficulty walking. I was very fortunate to have found Dylan Lange as my new physiotherapist. From the start, I was so impressed by Dylan's professionalism, positive attitude, constant encouragement , and his ability to build a strong bond based on trust between patient and therapist . I am most grateful to Dylan and certain that his work was instrumental in my recovery. Dylan is a highly skilled, compassionate, reliable, and dedicated professional, and I highly recommend him as a physiotherapist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from athletes and active adults near Burbank getting started with PT.

Do I need a doctor's referral before coming in?

No referral is needed to get started. California's direct access law allows you to begin physical therapy for up to 45 days without seeing a physician first. You can schedule a free phone consult right away and we'll take it from there. If your case eventually benefits from physician coordination, we'll help walk you through that step.

What does a typical session look like at your clinic?

Each visit is a full 55 minutes with your physical therapist — one-on-one, every time. No techs, no aides, no assembly-line care. We'll track your progress, coach you through your exercises, and adjust your plan of care based on how you're responding. Most people come in one to two times per week and then scale back as they get stronger and more confident.

Do I need to stop my sport or training while I'm in PT?

Not typically. We believe active, intelligent training is part of recovery for most injuries. We'll adjust your volume, intensity, or specific exercises as needed, but the goal is always to keep you moving toward your sport and your performance targets — not to park you on the sideline while you wait to feel better.

Why is PT at a cash-based clinic worth the cost?

Cash-based PT means every session is a full 55 minutes of focused, one-on-one attention — not 15 minutes with a therapist and the rest with a tech. You get a plan of care built around your actual goals, direct access to your clinician every visit, and more targeted progress. HSA and FSA are accepted, and superbills are available for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

What should I wear or bring to my first appointment?

Dress like you're heading to the gym — athletic shorts or leggings and a t-shirt work well. If you're coming in for a running or lower-body issue, bring your current training shoes. If your concern is related to lifting, be ready to walk through some key movements so we can get a full picture of what's going on and build the right plan of care from day one.
