PHASE Programs

Pickleball Performance Programs

We specialize in understanding the sport, movements, and culture of pickleball and aim to get you back on the courts with your friends whether you’re competing or recreational!

We specialize in treating pickleball athletes at any level! Pickleball is a low-impact and fast growing sport. We want to be sure you’re ramping up into it safely, effectively, and are able to optimize your recovery should injury occur!

Mobile/Concierge Programs

We believe that training where you live is important to fully carry over what you learn into your daily life. On top of that, now you don’t have to be the one accommodating for the commute or traffic! Whether at your home, in your office/workplace, or on the pickleball courts, we come to you!

Whole-Organism Recovery Programs

We recognize the body is made up of an intricate ecosystem involving multiple body systems that are trying to maintain balance so we can live vibrantly. We aim to consider the mind, body, heart, soul, and social environments with our approach with treatment. Our goal is to empower you to understand your body’s messages so you won’t have to live in fear of pain ever again.

We offer comprehensive physical therapy evaluations and treatment. Your program will involve an evidence-based and whole-person integrative approach to find the cause(s) of your pain and dysfunction and not just your symptoms. Physical Therapy services are available in-person, virtually, and hybrid for individuals located in the state of California.

Longevity Programs

“Future medicine will be the medicine of frequencies.”

— Albert Einstein

We use Amino Neuro Frequency (ANF) Therapy Medicine — an innovative, non-invasive treatment modality that we use to optimize your healing, reduce pain and inflammation, normalize body functions and systems, and improve your overall energy levels and well-being!

ANF Therapy® is a treatment that uses ANF Devices to help your body heal naturally. These devices emit frequencies that work with your nervous system and address the root causes of your issues. ANF Therapy® aims to provide fast and lasting relief. It’s used worldwide and can be combined with other treatments to improve your overall health. ANF Therapy® was invented by Dr. Mikel H.G. Hoff, a Swedish biochemist who specializes in the human body’s bio functions. It is the main frequency medicine therapy accepted and practised worldwide in more than 63 countries.

Visceral Manipulation Packages

Barral’s clinical work with the viscera led to his development of a form of manual therapy that focuses on the internal organs, their environment, and the potential influence on many structural and physiological dysfunctions. The term he coined for this therapy was Visceral Manipulation (VM). The purpose of VM is to re-create, harmonize, and increase proprioceptive communication in the body to enhance its internal mechanism for better health, thereby revitalizing a person, and relieving symptoms of pain, dysfunction, and poor posture. Visceral Manipulation treats a person’s functional and structural imbalances with an aim to affect their musculoskeletal, vascular, nervous, urogenital, respiratory, digestive, and lymphatic dysfunction.

Jean-Pierre Barral’s famous dictum, “Only the tissues know,” expresses that the tissues in the body have a deep and innate intelligence. Everything that has happened in our lives—injuries, diseases, stressors, etc.—is recorded in our tissues. At the core of Visceral Manipulation (VM) is ‘listening’ to the tissues with our hands. Through manual listening techniques, trained hands of a skilled practitioner feel where the tissues are pulling toward the areas of restriction, the areas where the body is not moving, and the areas of the greatest impact on the person’s wellbeing from the manual therapy perspective.

What Other People Just Like You Are Saying About PHASE Physical Therapy and Wellness In Arroyo Grande, CA

“I started working with Sarah in July 2023 right after I re- injured my right ankle at the Newport Pickleball Qualifier event (end of June 2023). This was the third time I injured the same ankle over the past year and I knew I needed to do something different to fix/strengthen the ankle so I would not keep injuring it. I am a competitor and needed to make sure my ankle was 100% for the 2023 National Pickleball Championships (November 2023). Sarah happened to be at the Newport tournament when I injured my ankle. She was able to help get the ankle stable so I could finish the tournament and compete in my singles gold match, which I ended up winning.

After she helped me at the tournament, I decided to begin working with Sarah and started my 2 month journey to strengthening my ankles. Her program was fantastic. Sarah was very accessible, knowledgeable and her app was easy to follow and use. I put in the work and completed the 2 month program. I highly recommend Sarah! And if you are a Pickleball payer, so is she and so many of the exercises can be focused on the specific movements for Pickleball.

On a side note, I did go on to win Gold at Nationals (singles 3.5 55+) and Bronze (Men’s Doubles 3.5 55+). Two back to back grueling days of intense, competitive Pickleball. If I had not taken Sarah’s 2 Month Ankle Program, there would no way I would have achieved the 2 medals at Nationals.” – Richard B.
