What Pasadena Clients Are Saying

Real results from Pasadena runners, lifters, and active adults who wanted more than just rest and ice.

I had a great experience with Vincent that started with a minor knee injury but progressed to dealing with the residual effects of back surgery I had a decade ago. As a physician, I greatly appreciate his evidence based approach to physical therapy. His knowledge of musculoskeletal physiology and anatomy is far superior to mine. On top of that, he is a very empathetic person who listens intently and goes the extra mile for his patients. A perfect example of that was that he came to my tennis club on a Sunday morning to watch and videotape my playing in order to better understand what my mobility issues were and to design specific exercises to address those issues.

I broke my ankle several months ago and was becoming increasingly frustrated by the lack of results I was getting at big PT office when I found Dr. Ho. At that point I was convinced that I would not get full mobility back in my ankle; I am so grateful that I found PnP when I did. Vincent’s holistic and tailored approach is extremely effective; in addition to being so impressed by his expert knowledge of every facet involved in physical / sports therapy, I have been extremely moved by his dedication to his patients - Vincent is truly a pleasure to work with. My only wish is that I found him sooner!
Caroline David
After little to no results from visiting other PT offices to help fix a myriad of back related issues, I discovered PnP. Vincent is very different from your typical physical therapist that only focuses on an isolated area of the body. Instead, he takes a holistic approach and does a head to toe diagnosis to get the root of the problem. He is not only thorough but patient in finding the correct and appropriate exercises that target muscle imbalances. He also goes the extra mile to explain proper form to achieve positive changes in problem areas. Under his guidance, I have seen steady progress and improvement in correcting my issues as well as becoming more aware of the causes of my issues. I recommend his expertise to anyone who has not had much success with other physical therapy offices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you want to know before booking your first visit in Pasadena.

Do I need a referral to start physical therapy in California?

No. California allows direct access to physical therapy for up to 45 days or 12 visits without a physician referral. You can schedule your evaluation or discovery call with us directly. If your situation requires physician coordination beyond that window, we will help you navigate it.

How is this different from a standard PT clinic?

Every session at Prestige and Performance is one-on-one with the same clinician from start to finish — no aides, no hand-offs, no 30-minute appointments. We do a detailed evaluation that looks at your full history, movement mechanics, and how the pain started, then build a strength-based plan specific to your sport and goals.

Will I have to stop training while I'm doing PT?

Usually not. For most runners, lifters, and active adults, smart training is part of the rehab process. We modify loads and intensity where needed, but the goal is to keep you moving and progressing — not to bench you with a list of things to avoid.

Why is cash-based PT worth the investment?

Cash-based care means your clinician can spend a full hour with you, build a plan around your sport instead of insurance codes, and give you their full attention every single visit. You're investing in detailed expertise and individualized care — not a shared gym floor and a rotating staff of assistants.

What should I expect at my first appointment?

Wear athletic clothes you can move freely in — shorts or leggings and a t-shirt. If you're a runner, bring your current training shoes. If you're working on a lifting issue, be ready to walk through key movements so we can assess your mechanics and build a plan from there.

Still have questions?

Reach out any time and we'll get you pointed in the right direction.
