About

LUCAS HERNANDEZ, DPT

As a clinician practicing in Los Angeles for the past 18 years I have developed relationships with physicians from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Kerlan-Jobe Institute, Watkins Spine, and many other medical groups, all of whom are respected physicians in their fields.

I received my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree (DPT) from Mount Saint Mary’s University in 2007. At the University of Southern California I completed a rigorous 10-month orthopedic residency seminar and I frequently attend continuing education courses to further my knowledge and skills in the physical therapy field.

PHILOSOPHY

My experience and training taught me how to look at the whole person rather than just treating symptoms. This holistic approach allows me to get to the source of your pain by identifying and treating biomechanical dysfunctions and poor movement patterns. My treatment involves “hands-on” manual physical therapy, specific functional exercise, and a rehabilitation program geared specifically for each individual.

I provide quality one-on-one, private sessions where you are my only focus. I am interested in helping you reach your lifestyle goals and long term changes in your pain, not just a a quick fix.
