Comment: Brandon and the team at Project Performance are outstanding! I went to Brandon with a shoulder injury and lower back pain. Not only did he help alleviate the acute pain, he has helped fix underlying issues that led to the injury to begin with. He has fixed the way I work out and offered so many helpful exercises to my routine to help keep me out of pain and highly active. I have a job that involves a lot of sitting down and Project Performance has given me exactly what I needed to get healthy and stay healthy despite my job. I happily recommend anyone and everyone to go to Project Performance if you’re dealing with any pain that just won’t go away. Thanks so much Brandon!

Comment: Brandon and the team at Project Performance are nothing short of miraculous. If that sounds extreme, keep reading. For the last 10 years I have had an increasingly less mobile and increasingly more painful left shoulder. Ive gone to several doctors, done FMRIs, multiple PTs, even an Osteomanipulation specialist who dislocated and relocated my shoulder in the exam room, and the result was always the same. No answers, vague suggestions, and on my way.I went to see Brandon after a glowing recommendation from a previous client, and from the first session he blew every other experience out of the water. He listened carefully, asked thoughtful questions, and involved me in the process the entire time. There were two very small details I mentioned off handedly, and because Brandon took time to see the whole picture, test, and explore, he did what no other previous professional in every capacity could not. I now have an understanding of my specific injury, how it likely happened, and for once, how it will get better.Every exercise I have been given has been specifically tailored to me, carefully taught in session and are so easily done at home. Thresholds have been carefully discussed and defined, and each and every movement and therapy Brandon applies respects the individual and what their body has to say.I am about three months in the process. Previously, I could only raise my left arm comfortably to about ear level, had sharp pain in various places of the shoulder as well as random and intense numbness along the arm down into the fingers. Now I have about 90% mobility in the arm, an immense amount of pain and numbness reduced on a daily basis as well as an understanding as to how to remedy or recover it, and so much gratitude to Brandon.If you arent sure if its the right place for you, have a session with Brandon and anyone on his team and youll quickly see their wealth of knowledge, personalized compassion and care, and their effectiveness.

Comment: Dr. Brandon has helped me over the past 5 months recover from a rotator cuff strain/tear. I had come to him first after injuring and experiencing pain in my arm and told him my goals of being able to get back to lifting weights and swimming. Dr. Brandon lead me through strengthening different muscle areas of the rotator cuff and adapted my programming to meet my fitness/active goals on the fly. Im now swimming without pain and just did my first unassisted chin ups since injury! Im very pleased with my results of working with Project Performance.

Comment: I have had the pleasure of working with Brandon to address a hip flexor injury that occurred during an intense workout. My goal was to not only heal the injury but also to strengthen my hip flexors, glutes, and core to prevent future issues. I can confidently say that Brandon’s expertise, dedication, and personalized approach have been nothing short of transformative for my recovery and overall fitness.From the initial consultation, Brandon impressed me with his comprehensive understanding and his ability to pinpoint the underlying causes of my hip flexor issues. He took the time to thoroughly assess my condition, listen to my concerns, and explain the intricacies of the treatment plan he was designing specifically for me. This personalized approach made me feel confident and reassured that I was in capable hands.Brandon’s program is meticulously structured, focusing not only on alleviating the immediate discomfort but also on building long-term strength and stability. The exercises he prescribed were varied and progressively challenging, ensuring that I was continually making progress without risking re-injury. His emphasis on strengthening the glutes and core was particularly beneficial, as I learned how interconnected these muscle groups are with the hip flexors.One of the standout aspects of working with Brandon was his holistic approach to rehabilitation and fitness. He didn’t just focus on isolated exercises but incorporated functional movements that improved my overall mobility and strength. This comprehensive strategy not only helped in healing my hip flexor injury but also enhanced my athletic performance and daily activities.The results speak for themselves. After several weeks of consistent training with Brandon, my hip flexor pain significantly diminished, and I felt a marked improvement in my glute and core strength. Activities that once aggravated my injury, like running and squatting, became much more manageable and even enjoyable. I now have a deeper understanding of my body and the confidence to maintain my newfound strength and mobility.Working with Brandon has been an incredibly positive and rewarding experience. His expertise, personalized approach, and unwavering support have been crucial in my recovery journey.

Comment: Im a lifelong athlete who loves trail running, triathlons, hiking, swimming, and weightlifting. For the past couple of years, Ive had persistent knee pain in my right leg. It went from being just a post-run discomfort to making my daily walks tough. I tried everything—massage therapists, sports doctors, chiropractors—but no one could help beyond telling me to stop running. I even tried different running shoes and followed various recommended knee exercises programs that I found online, but the pain wouldnt go away. Thats when I decided to find a physical therapist who really knows how to work with athletes.After some thorough online research and reading Yelp reviews, I found Brandon Pascual at Project Performance. His office is at the “Inside Werk Fitness Facility” on Morena Blvd, which is a super clean, well-organized place with top-notch fitness and rehab equipment. Its nothing like the typical over crowded gyms you see around San Diego. Everyone there is friendly and welcoming, making it a comfortable and safe environment, either for working with one of the knowledgable personal trainers or physical therapists.Brandons approach was refreshingly methodical and really thorough. He did a comprehensive assessment of my bodys functionality and quickly pinpointed the issues—a weak Gluteus Medius and limited hip mobility. We started a weekly training routine right away, using advanced rehab and strengthening techniques.After a few months of regular PT sessions and sticking to the home exercises Brandon gave me, I started noticing real improvements. My daily walks and hikes became easier, and I felt stronger overall. Equally valuable was the wealth of knowledge I acquired about my body strengths and limitations as well as effective strategies for preventing future knee-related issues.Brandons friendly and eager to help attitude, professionalism, expertise, and unwavering encouragement have been instrumental in my journey toward recovery. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone grappling with similar challenges. With Brandons guidance, relief and renewed mobility I’m excited to get back to long distance running and hiking without any discomfort.Brandons friendly, professional, and always encouraging. His help has been crucial in my recovery journey. I cant recommend him enough to anyone dealing with similar issues. Thanks to Brandon, Im excited to get back to long-distance running and hiking without any pain.

Comment: I started working with Brandon at Project Performance Physical Therapy after dealing with hip pain for a couple years that was beginning to fully keep me from the active life style I love. I was frustrated that I was unable to resolve my hip pain and it was ever present. I have come to find that through working with Brandon I am strengthening my imbalances and getting back to living the life I want to. I am more pain free than I have been in a long time. I always feel that I am heard with any physical issues experienced and Brandon provides me personally tailored exercises/tools to work on that resolve problems that present. It is clear that Brandon truly enjoys his trade and cares about positively impacting the people he works with. I would highly recommend Project Performance to anybody that is living with persistent pain and looking to turn it around.

Comment: I started with Desiree 6 weeks ago for an ankle and knee that has been in pretty consistent pain for 2 years. My pain has gone away in that time. What has been a life changer has been that i have been able to use my legs and become strong and stable. My balance has really improved. I am very grateful. Thank you, Don

Comment: Upon moving to San Diego from Colorado, I struggled to find a trustworthy physical therapist for my injuries—until I met Brandon. With my extensive background in physical therapy, fitness, and orthopedics, I am very particular about whom I trust. Finding Brandon has been an absolute godsend.Brandons approach to physical therapy and movement is exactly what I needed. His cutting-edge techniques and the immense time and energy he invests in his patients are extraordinary and rare. He has helped me with multiple injuries, significantly strengthening both my body and mind and getting me back working out the way I want to.I LOVE working with Brandon and will continue to do so (for as long as he lets me:) !!) I cannot recommend him highly enough. Truly.

Comment: As a physical therapist myself - it’s incredibly important to me to find another clinician that I trust and believe has the absolute best skills to provide the top care. I came to Dr. Brandon with leg pain that I had been trying to treat for a few months myself. After one visit with Dr.Brandon he showed me new exercises & techniques that I had never seen before. I left with no leg pain & ran 8 miles the next day which I have never done before.So excited to continue to work with Dr. Brandon & feel better & stronger each session. Dr. Brandon comes equipt with the newest evidence-based technology on the market, allowing you to see your data in real time & improve over sessions. Dr. Brandon is passionate about physical therapy, & focuses on continued education to constantly improve his skills & abilities.I feel grateful to have found Dr. Brandon not only to learn from him but also to continue to improve my leg strength & run for the rest of my life! I chose to go outside insurance because as a clinician myself - I can 100% guarantee that you won’t receive this level of care within network. Thanks again Dr. Brandon!

Comment: I tore my ACL playing football over a year ago, and waited 6 months to get the surgery. Dr. Brandon from Project Performance built a strength program for me months before my surgery to maintain my strength.After my surgery, I was able to walk without my crutches within the first week! The week after that Brandon helped me get my squat back! By the end of the first month I was already doing squats, lunges, deadlifts and other common leg exercises that I didn’t think I would be able to do until later on!It’s been 5 months since my surgery, and I am confidently running outside, doing box jumps, and even agility drills like learning how to decelerate and control my speed.Brandon is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to ACL rehab for someone who is active. He has a mix physical therapy and strength and conditioning. He also has a torn ACL that he did not have surgery. I highly recommend Brandon at Project Performance for physical therapy if you are an active person who wants to get back into activities and sports from an ACL operation.

Comment: I have been dealing with knee pain for the last 2 years. I’ve been to many highly credible and experienced physical therapists, doctors, and sports medicine providers - but they’ve all told me to stop running and exercising so I can get rid of my knee pain.It wasn’t until I met Desiree from Project performance physical therapy, where she taught me if I avoid these movements I wouldn’t be able to fully resolve the knee pain myself. At project performance, their style of physical therapy is much more unique and personalized compared to other providers. On day one we actually ran and did plyometric training, which is something that I’ve never seen in any other physical therapy practice.After three months of in-depth personalized rehab with Desiree, I am now fully confident to run the full Rock N Roll marathon in June.If you’re a runner and deciding to work with project performance physical therapy, expect them to guide you through a lot of exercises and movements on your program that you’ve never done before. What I like about it is that you get to spend one on one with the doctor of physical therapy for the full hour. This made a huge difference, especially when I had a lot of questions about my knee pain and my rehab plan.Highly recommend Project Performance physical therapy to any runner or any active individual.

Comment: I am a long distance runner, and training to run marathons currently. Was dealing with lower back and hip pain that was impacting my training.Connected with Brandon through a previous client of his that spoke very highly of the program and its effects. Wanted to work with Brandon on active exercises that would strengthen my back and hip to allow for higher mileage weeks.Very satisfied with the work we’ve put in so far and I feel to be improving. The work and effort I’ve put in so far has resulted in improvements I’m hoping to build on. Would recommend Brandon and his program to anyone that is looking for active PT.Enjoyed the sessions and time with Brandon, planning to work with him as I train.

I appreciate he pushes hard yet understands the practicality for most working people who don’t have hours per day to focus on recovery. Well worth the time and expense!

Comment: I am a trainer therefore very active. I recently started experiencing some discomfort in my left hip. This was triggered by a couple of things. One of them being exercise . Another factor is my posture and the way that I sit. Therefore some muscle imbalances and improper movement. It got to a point where it was very uncomfortable sitting standing or laying down. At that point I knew I needed to do something about it. Thats when I sought out Project Performance Physical Therapy and I was able to schedule a session with Desiree.She is very patient, knowledgeable, and is great at finding the root cause of your pain or discomfort. I received a thorough assessment of my movement patterns. Afterwards Desiree showed me a few active stretches and mobility exercises that I could do to alleviate the pain that I was experiencing. She demonstrated and helped me work through the mechanics of each movement.After my session with Desiree, I continued to incorporate the movements that she showed me in our session. I did experience a little bit of pain for a few more days. But after that it went away and I have not had that pain since then. I had intended to do a follow-up session. But my hip has been feeling amazing with no tightness or pain. Im very grateful for Desiree and Project Performance erformance Physical therapy. I would absolutely return and recommend anyone else to their services.

Comment: Dr. Brandon Pascual is fantastic! He is very knowledgeable, and clearly cares about his patients! I’ve been going to Dr. Brandon for about two months to rehab from a nasty tear in a calf muscle. The injury was on my right leg and when I first started going to him, I could barely walk, let alone drive. I’m thrilled with my progress and I’m walking quite well and practicing driving short distances to work towards getting back to where I was before the injury. Dr. Brandon has been amazing with explaining the process to me as well as how the injury and healing affects my other muscles and tendons. He’s been great with explaining the healing process, which gives me peace of mind, and also helps me be patient with myself to heal properly. Dr. Brandon gives me exercises every visit based on his assessments during each visit. He is very detail oriented and customizes my program based on my progress and goals. I also very much appreciate that one of his long term goals is to teach me how to reduce the risk of re-injury. I also really appreciate that he uploads my exercises Into a portal where I can review them and track my progress. There are also pre-existing videos and videos that he uploads of me doing certain exercises with his narration. It’s very very helpful! I have already recommended Dr. Brandon to several people and would have no hesitation going back to him myself should I have a need in the future. I feel very lucky and grateful to have Dr. Brandon helping me through this process! I highly recommend him!

Comment: Working with Sierra and Brandon has been a game-changer for me. Sierra really knows her stuff, especially when it comes to dealing with my aches and pains. If somethings not working for me, she tweaks it right away, making sure Im getting stronger without any fuss. Plus, I can actually see the results, which is awesome. Shes super nice and always makes sure Im comfortable with what were doing. As a physical therapist Brandon applies his extensive knowledge for figuring out whats wrong, even when I cant put my finger on it. Hes always thinking ahead, keeping me from getting hurt again. Hes not just about fixing me up; hes all about giving me tips that change the game in how I live my day-to-day. Together, theyre a dream team! Brandon gives Sierra the lowdown on what I need, and she adjusts my workouts to fit. Thanks to them, Im standing taller, and my clothes are fitting better. Its been an amazing experience.

Comment: Last year I switched from doing only pilates and cardio to incorporating weight lifting but felt like I hit a plateau. I met Sierra at Project Performance in October to help me progress towards my goal of lifting heavy and looking toned. She really simplified the process, and debunked some of the complexities we see in the fitness industry. Since working with Sierra, I’m lifting so much heavier than I thought I could! She makes the journey so much fun. I look forward to our in-person workouts, her program, and protein!

Comment: While working with Sierra I learned about lifting weights, diet and how to put together a good workout for a woman ‘my age’. Sierra helped me with total body workouts, mixing them up by challenging exercises and super setting the reps She also helped me realize the importance of eating the right foods. She was on time, prepared and made the workouts ‘fun’, though I was certainly challenged and sweaty upon leaving! Definitely recommend!

Comment: Brandon has been a life saver and the key for my recovery and comeback!! I hurt my back almost a full year ago from deadlifting and I was in so much pain for the longest time but no acupuncturist or other physical therapists could get down to my problem like he did. They prescribed me basic stretches and told me to rest, but returning to lifting without knowing why it hurt kept hindering my road to a full recovery. I lost a lot of hope and almost thought I could never lift heavy again. I could barely even pick up things from the floor or put on my shoes without pain, but today I feel the best I’ve been since the injury. Brandon was able to diagnose the root cause of my problem and would give me exercises specifically tailored for my issues and also for prevention down the line. I feel confident in my recovery with him and he’s literally gotten me out of the trenches. So grateful for his dedication to me making a major comeback from this minor setback 🥲 Run, do not walk, to work with him! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a physical therapist.

Comment: I went to Project Performance for a consultation for a herniated disc that had a flare up and wanted to address the root issue. Brandon put me through a series of tests to discover my imbalances and current range of motion. He did this with the most care and didn’t force useless movement. Once the tests were over, we went through a quick session where I was able to move with far less pain. That was just the first session! After the hour long session, Brandon set himself apart from other PT’s when he went through his 5 step plan to make sure I was able to address the root cause AND give me the tools to strengthen my core beyond the end of our sessions. I will definitely continue my physical therapy journey with Project Performance because of Brandon!

Comment: I started going to Brandon at Project Performance because I was having left knee pain. I had ACL surgery 3 years ago and work on my feet for 12 hour shifts. I felt like my knee pain was limiting my ability to run, play pickleball, and feel comfortable being on my feet for a 12 hour shift. I also was never able to get my left leg to get back to the same size as my right. Since working with Brandon I am feeling so much more confident and comfortable playing pickleball and at works. Plus I am finally seeing that my legs have the same muscle mass!! You will be in the best hands at Project Performance!

Comment: Holy WOW! I am a tattoo artist and I originally went to Project Performance to help prevent lower back issues. I hunch over all day and started to notice my posture was getting worse accompanied by lower back pain. I went in for an evaluation at the beginning of January and was immediately surprised at how knowledgable and friendly the staff was. Desiree was the Physical Therapist I work with and, man, does she know her stuff. Ive seen her twice now and I work with Sierra, the Personal Trainer, twice a week to help strengthen my muscles and maintain a more healthy lifestyle. Overall, my experience has been nothing but amazing, friendly, and informative. I am already seeing results for both posture and overall strength. I highly recommend the whole team for any physical therapy and personal training needs!

Comment: Before working with Brandon at Project Performance Therapy, I suffered from chronic lower back pain due to a Jiu Jitsu injury. Before seeing Brandon, I was only guessing what was injured, and after my first session, he had diagnosed the problem and identified a training plan that immediately provided pain relief. After consistently doing rehab training, a few months later I am almost at 100%. I would trust Project Performance Therapy wholly to treat me with the best care possible while identifying the underlying issues and tailoring a training program to fit my specific needs. 10/10

Comment: Physical therapy with Project Performance has been a rewarding experience. Ive had issues with instability in my knees since I was in high school. After getting several knee injuries in jiu jitsu; I finally decided to look into physical therapy and my friend from jiu jitsu recommended Brandon to me. I was skeptical about pricing in the beginning but I decided it was time to invest in my body. Making the decision to work them yielded real results. In October 2023, we started working on a plan to strengthen the muscles that supported stability for my knee. We tested my left quad and noted that it had the strength of 7 kg. After 10 weeks, my quad gained the strength of 20 kg. Now I have faster reflexes, better reaction time and I can train with confidence.

Comment: I have been working with Project Performance Physical Therapy since late summer of this year. In May of 2022 I had a bucket handle lateral meniscus tear surgically repaired in my left knee following a substantial hockey injury. Traditional physical therapy and some delays in rehabilitation due to a military deployment had my knee in a state of constant pain with mobility issues stopping me from routine activity. The personalized and professional approach taken over these few short months with a focus on relearning movement patterns already has me back in the fight of running, sprinting, and lifting. My pain is drastically reduced and I am confident that under Brandon’s continued care I will be lacing up the skates and back on the rink again shortly. Would highly recommend Project Performance Physical Therapy to anyone looking to recover from an injury, it is an invaluable investment in your quality of life and performance.

Comment: Working with Brandon at Project Performance Physical Therapy was not something I thought I would need. I am a 30-year-old active male who hasn’t had many physical problems before. I injured my knee around six months ago. In my mind, physical therapy was for old folks and torn ligaments but after three frustrating months of limited mobility, ongoing weakness and the inability to workout at my gym (P360) I was afraid my knee would never be the same. My Wife had worked with Brandon for her lingering back pain and was back to her regular activity after 12 sessions with him. I figured I’d give it a shot. After my first session with Brandon, he immediately identified my knee injury and tailored a personalized program to suit my active lifestyle and goals. Brandon modified each workout and gave me a scheduled regimen to complete at home.With Project Performance, it’s more than just fixing an injury. He understood and took into consideration the level of activity that I expected and wanted to return to. After my sessions with Brandon, he didn’t just fix my knee problems, he’s given me the confidence to return to my previous level of activity and then some. I would never want to hurt my knee again, but working with Brandon was a godsend, and I can’t imagine where I’d be without his expertise. Trust me, you wont find anyone better. If you’re on the fence, odds are you should pull the trigger, waiting longer will not fix your issues, Project Performance will.

Comment: For the past few months, Ive been dealing with severe shoulder pain, a remnant from a surgery I underwent a decade ago. This issue has been a major hindrance, affecting my routine activities and my passion for jiujitsu and weightlifting. This prompted me to consult Brandon, and it turned out to be a fantastic decision. Brandon expertly identified the muscles that were either overworked or underutilized, leading to imbalances around my scapula. He prescribed specific exercises to address these issues, and Ive already started to feel an improvement. My experience with Brandon has been outstanding, and Im eagerly anticipating our continued collaboration.

Comment: I highly recommend Project Performance for their physical therapy and personal training services! My name is Tyler and I’ve been receiving personal training from Sierra for the past several months. Prior to starting I had little workout experience and found it hard to stay motivated to reach my fitness goals of consistency and injury avoidance. After training with Sierra I have become more motivated and confident in my ability to execute workouts correctly. Sierra has provided me focused feedback in real time concerning my form and has helped me mitigate any potential injury from weight training I was previously prone to. Sierra’s training style consisting of strength training and injury prevention deeply aligned with fitness goals and have given me the tools to push my limits pain free!

I used to not be able to work on my computer unless I was at a desk with proper ergonomic setup and now I can work a little more on the go and out and about. The approach has been a mix of stretching and strength training, which has given me the best results!Highly recommend working with Project Performance. This has been the best investment for my health!

Project Performance provided a very thorough assessment and then customized exercises to help strengthen and give better balance to my muscles. I like how they really listen and are very skilled in seeing where the issues are and giving exercises to help fix them. I liked how they give videos of the exercises so I can continue to perform them correctly. After one session my shoulders feel more relaxed and I could tell mobility had already improved some. Im looking forward to continue working and feel confident that the information I was given will help my shoulder strength and mobility. Big thank you to Project Performance and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is needing PT services.

Comment: Ive been fortunate to work with Brandon for several weeks, focusing on my shoulder injury caused by improper weight lifting. Brandons diagnosis was a game-changer – he identified that I had been overusing certain muscles and neglecting others. Given my limited body awareness, this revelation was pivotal.Under Brandons expert guidance, my therapy has been all about retraining my muscles. Learning to engage the underused ones while allowing the overused ones to heal has been transformative. Im thrilled to report that my progress has been nothing short of remarkable. Ive not only recovered but have become significantly stronger in the process, thanks to Brandons skillful approach. I couldnt have achieved these results without his invaluable expertise and support. If youre in the San Diego area, particularly Mission Bay or Point Loma and dealing with a sports-related injury, I wholeheartedly recommend working with Brandon – he truly works wonders!

Comment: I came to Brandon with hip pain that I had been experiencing on and off for over two years. After my first consultation with Brandon I knew immediately I had finally found someone who understood the pain, what the underlying cause was and how we were going to get relief. I am happy to say after just a few sessions I not only felt relief from the pain but stronger in the surrounding muscles.Brandon is so knowledgeable. I was truly blown away.Brandon was recommended to me by my personal trainer and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing physical therapy. I cannot recommend Project Performance enough!

Comment: Brandon is top notch and the program he puts together is very comprehensive. Each week he adjusts the workouts after hearing your feedback and progress report. He is also available thru the app (that is also a great tool) and responds throughout the week to any questions about workouts. All put together with a positive and vibrant attitude, great things happen here! He helped set me on track to continue building muscles in areas I needed to prevent future pain/aches. And furthermore explained how everything I was experiencing in my body was connected!

Comment: I highly recommend Project Performance Physical Therapy. I had bicep pain from lifting weights. I rested and just tried to power through but it didn’t improve. I thought I was unable hit the gym ever again. And the I went to Project Performance Physical Therapy and they gave me hope to be able to lift again. They gave me a strength program that helped me build my arm back up to function better. Now I am able to hit the weights the same as I used to. I highly recommend project performance physical therapy if you are dealing with an injury and don’t know what to do with it.

Comment: I went to see Brandon after a skiing injury that left me with a torn MCL, ACL, LCL and meniscus. Brandon helped me work through my options for rehab and when I ultimately decided on surgery to repair my ACL, he helped me through all my prehab. Now Im almost 6 months post-op following my ACL reconstruction and feeling great thanks to Brandon. Our sessions are one-on-one and he changes my program based on how Im feeling and how Im progressing. My plan is individual to me, and how my body is feeling at the time of our sessions. He is super responsive if I need to change my plan during the week and my training plan changes based on how Im feeling that week. I would whole heartedly recommend Brandon to anyone that needs rehab or physical therapy.

Comment: I came to see a Brandon due to issues I was having with my hips and low back. He was great with diagnosing my problems and explaining to me why it was happening. After my sessions with Brandon I was able to get back onto my weight lifting journey and have noticed a major difference in the problem areas. My mobility, and range of motion are much improved. My pain in those areas have gone away. I highly recommend him. His communication when you’re working with him in and away are great. His programming for me was great and I know he can provide the same for you.

Comment: I recently had the privilege of working with Brandon and I cannot praise his expertise and professionalism enough. From the moment I walked in, the entire experience was top-notch. He was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive to my needs. He took the time to thoroughly assess my condition and tailored a personalized treatment plan that worked wonders for my recovery.The facility itself was clean, modern, and equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, creating a comfortable atmosphere for rehabilitation. Brandon’s guidance and encouragement motivated me to push my limits and achieve significant progress in my healing journey.What truly set Brandon apart from other physical therapist was his genuine care for his patients. He not only focused on the physical aspects of my recovery but also provided emotional support, making me feel valued and understood. His patience and excellent communication skills made every session productive and enjoyable.Thanks, Brandon!!!

Comment: I highly recommend Project Performance. I went in with knee pain from running, and Brandon was able to identify the cause quickly following some mobility and balance tests, as well as analyzing my form on a treadmill. He uses a great app with clients where he programs custom workouts each day that include instructions, video demonstrations, and messaging features. I am much stronger from the exercises, and have no hesitations going into ski season. I now know better warmup techniques for running and ways I can improve my form, which should help prevent the pain from returning.

Comment: Before beginning at DPT Pascual Performance, I experienced nagging pain in the frontside of my shoulder when overhead pressing. Since then, I now can barbell bench again and reach as high as I want without any sort of pain. Im able to fully perform as my profession requires a lot of movement. I highly recommend Dr. Brandon Pascual as he is a well pronounced and worded individual with a lot of great tips and tricks to help solve the issue.

Comment: I started with Brandon with lower back pain that had been around for almost half a year from an injury at the gym. I had already seen other physical therapists, but I wasnt progressing as fast as I had hoped. Since working with Brandon, we have been able to completely stop my lower back pain through mobility and strength-building exercises. He is also helping reinforce (and sometimes re-teach) good form with exercises that I use in my regular workouts so that I can hopefully avoid a similar injury in the future. I really enjoy working with Brandon, knowing that he has my personal goal of getting back to the gym pain-free as his top priority!

Comment: I went for a visit to see Brandon after years of having a bad ankle. I had seen a few specialists before hand but nothing seemed to help. The more I ran the worse it seemed to get. Brandon was able to really figure out the roof of the issue. I was so nervous he was going to tell me I couldnt run anymore. But after my visit and some therapy tips he recommended, Ive slowly been getting better! Cant wait to go back! I love his holistic approach in physical therapy!

Comment: Had an awesome session with Brandon! I sprained my MCL right before a 3-4 month surf trip and he made me feel super confident about my recovery time, and gave me a bunch of exercises I could do on my own to rehab the injury. Very professional, knowledgeable, and if I was sticking around San Diego I would 100% come back!

Comment: I have been living with knee pain since at least the 8th grade. In 2021 I had surgery on both knees and was told that I could try injections but that both knees would need to be replaced sooner rather than later. That same year I was diagnosed with bilateral shoulder impingement syndrome. Both shoulders were injected with steroids and I was told it was just to delay surgery. I was at the point with my knees and shoulders that walking on level ground was painful (even the swinging of my arms was painful!). I was not able to comfortably sleep. Stairs were impossible as were my hobbies. I did daily physical therapy with no improvement at all. I had resigned myself to surgery and had even met with 2 different surgeons when a good friend told me about Pascual Performance Physical Therapy. She is a black belt in Jiu Jitsu with a knee as bad as mine. I met with Brandon for an assessment and we went to work. Over the course of the next few weeks the exercises improved my comfort in both my knees and shoulders. I continue to improve in ways I would not have imagined- I can climb stairs comfortably! I can interact and ride horses comfortably, very important as this is how I earn my living. I can train jiu jitsu 4-5 days a week and I earned my blue belt because I was able to train! I’m excited that I continue to improve despite the predictions of the surgeons. I appreciate Brandon’s ability to adjust my exercises to my specific needs (something I never experienced with previous physical therapy). He has also worked with my daughter to alleviate her shoulder pain. If you feel like you have tried everything without the results you have hoped for then it’s time to give Brandon a call.

Comment: After weighing all of my options with my doctors, I wanted to be more conservative and opted for the non-surgical route. Brandon has been helping me with my back pain caused by a L5-S1 extruded disc which also involves a pinched nerve, causing left leg/ankle weakness. I was seeing a different physical therapist in my insurance network but I was getting frustrated with the repetitive exercises and lack of progression. Prior to seeing him, I was really afraid to move certain ways, afraid it would trigger more pain. Working with Brandon has given me the confidence to move and get my active life back. I’ve seen improvement in my mobility and strength. I’m really happy with how far I’ve progressed, he is even helping me get ready for a 7 day hiking trip to the Alps I have planned in a couple months. I also like that he has an app with exercises he curates personally for me to perform everyday. My husband saw how awesome my app was and has been doing the exercises with me :) Thanks Brandon!

Comment: Brandon gave me a genuine assessment when I was contemplating going back to long distance running after taking several years off. He was very knowledgeable and taught me how to stay strong so that I can avoid injuries. He made me feel relaxed and comfortable during all of our mobility exercises. He can really guide runners on a path to avoid unnecessary surgeries or when they get injured. Definitely going back to Brandon!

Comment: Pascual Performance taught me why the back pain I had was happening, and how to strengthen muscles I had never developed in order to provide stability that has allowed me to feel remarkably better. My lower back had had pain for three years, after it was explained what complimentary muscles were not engaged and working on building those muscles, I feel so much better. I really like the plan he makes every week that includes a video demonstration of the exercises and then how many sets and reps to do.I highly recommend Pascual Performance for long term addressing of chronic pain!

Comment: I hurt my lower back months ago deadlifting. Of course I thought I could fix it on my own by taking some time off and then reintroducing lighter weights, etc (If this is you, just book an appointment with Brandon now and save yourself months of wasted time trying to do things on your own and failing). After a couple months of trying to ease back into lifting, I hurt my lower back badly doing a simple workout with light weights. The pain was so severe, I could not get out of bed and had to call out of work. Thats when I reached out to Brandon. I told him my situation and he made time for me the next day.After doing his initial assessment, he figured out the root causes of my injury and a week later I was flipping tires in my sessions with him. I am a very active person and my biggest concerns were getting back to my group fitness class (heavy on weightlifting) and surfing. Since I have started working with Brandon, I have learned that I was lifting incorrectly before and not engaging a lot of different muscles. I thought I was engaging my core muscles before getting injured, but after working with Brandon I think my core and glutes are stronger than they have ever been. Thats after 10+ years of group fitness classes/Crossfit! I feel more equipped than ever to lift heavier weights and PR at the gym. I have already returned to surfing with no pain.I have gone to different PTs in the past and I would recommend Brandon for several reasons. 1. He is a phenomenal teacher and uses great metaphors to make things easier for me understand. 2. His exercises are fun and creative! I look forward to my sessions with him and my at-home workouts! 3. He spends the whole hour working with me and gives me constant feedback. He will take videos of things I need to remember and the app he uses is very easy to use and great for me to keep track of what Im doing. 4. This might not apply to everyone but he is a member of the same gym that I am. He worked out at the same time as me for my first class so he could give me some feedback while I was lifting!I still have some more sessions with him and I am genuinely excited to see where Im at at the end of this. I think Im going to come out well equipped with the tools to meet my fitness goals and prevent future injuries. I cannot recommend Brandon enough to anyone looking for a physical therapist in the area.

Comment: Before we started working together, I was plagued by a nagging pain in my lower back that had been bothering me for months. It made simple tasks like sitting for extended periods or bending down to pick up objects a painful ordeal. The constant discomfort had taken a toll on my overall well-being, affecting my mood and productivity.Since we began our sessions, I have experienced remarkable results and found your guidance to be incredibly helpful. Through a combination of targeted exercises, stretches, and postural adjustments, my pain has significantly reduced. I now wake up each morning with less stiffness and discomfort, allowing me to start my day on a positive note.The improvements have been life-changing, as Ive been able to regain my mobility and engage in activities that were previously limited due to my injury. I can now enjoy playing with my kids and riding motorcycles without fearing that my back will give out. Your expert advice and personalized approach have empowered me to take control of my health and live a more active and fulfilling life.If someone were unsure about working with you, I would wholeheartedly recommend your services. Your extensive knowledge, attentiveness, and dedication to helping me overcome my injury have been invaluable. Your ability to tailor the treatment to my specific needs and goals has made all the difference. You genuinely care about my progress and consistently provide support and motivation throughout our sessions. Working with you has not only alleviated my pain but also given me the confidence to take charge of my well-being. If youre looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate professional who can guide you towards recovery and help you regain an active lifestyle, I assure you that working with this pascual performance will be an excellent investment in your health.

Comment: Highly recommend Brandon Pascual. I strained my iliolumbar ligament a few weeks ago doing good mornings and was barely able to get out of bed. I feared that I would never get back to normal as a 25 year old. Brandon was able to identify my pain points and through cupping, scrapping, and a series of mobility and strengthening exercises I’m happy to say that I am back in the gym and doing the things I love most (Kayaking). Brandon has also helped me identify multiple muscle imbalances I’ve developed over the years, which we are currently working on. I believe that I will be able to reach new highs and become stronger than ever. Brandon is a true professional and a master of his craft.

Comment: I first started seeing Brandon after being dissatisfied with another physical therapy group. I was having significant pain in my left hip and leg that was making every day activities like walking my dog, and walking upstairs very challenging. During my first evaluation Brandon took the time to listen and answer all of my questions. He designed a plan and a goal, and makes the most of our sessions together. He is very focused and motivating and there has been a huge improvement in my mobility and decrease in my leg pain. Brandon is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him!

Comment: I had nagging back pain that stopped me from being able to lift weights at the gym. I wasnt able to squat or deadlift without my back flaring up. Brandon put together a comprehensive program for me that introduced me to mobility, stability and targeted strength training exercises. Ive been working with him for almost a year now and am back in the gym training harder than I have ever before without any pain. Plus, he was able to fix up my tennis elbow that was nagging me when golfing. If youre on the fence, I would recommend atleast getting an evaluation and Im pretty sure youll come out of it wanting to work with him.

Comment: I came to Brandon because I tweaked my neck/upper back earlier in the year and was still in a considerable amount of pain. I am a horse trainer so the use of my body is necessary for me to successfully help balance and teach a horse. I was skeptical, but after just 2 sessions I was already waking up in less pain and knew what we were doing was working. I love that Brandon not only helps you during his sessions, but his app holds you accountable and educates you on how to keep the problem at bay. It has been a game changer! I am currently pain free and back to working normally, sleeping normally and I am able to do more activities without being concerned of my neck hurting me. I would absolutely recommend Brandon. I’ve been to Physical Therapy before and his program really sets you up for longevity and success something not only my pocket book appreciates, but my physical well-being as well.

Since working with him Ive seen much improvement in my shoulder and knee pain and have progressively incorporated running back into my routine! Whether Im doing an in-person session or doing exercises on my own, Brandon is always ready and available to answer questions and able to modify each session to my specific needs for the week. He is very knowledgable and adaptable. I would highly recommend!

After just one I was already feeling less pressure and much lighter.Brandon is very professionals and sufficient with his time. I have been recommending my clients to him as well and they couldn’t agree more. The facility is clean I highly recommend you reach out and schedule a session soon you won’t be disappointed.

Comment: I finally found Brandon after trying several places and different methods to fix my hip. I have scoliosis and what I didn’t realize was I was slowly, overtime, getting more twisted and it was throwing my hip out of whack. So what I needed was someone to help me get UN-twisted!Since working with Brandon, I have seen the most progress that I’ve seen in two years. He’s really innovative. He finds ways to strengthen and trigger muscles that haven’t been activating. I have learned a lot with him. I have been progressing, getting stronger and am able to do things I haven’t been able to do in a long time.I have been limping due to my hip. I can now walk properly very slowly and am building up strength so that I will be able to walk at a normal speed. I can balance on one foot now. These all seem like simple things, but once you can’t do them, they are huge milestones.One of the main reasons I like working with Brandon is he follows your progress with a great app and fine tunes movements and exercises to you specifically. He has multiple different modifications to meet your needs. Also, I can tell he truly wants to fix you. It’s like a puzzle or a problem for him to solve and he’ll do it!!Brandon was originally recommended to me by a fellow Jiujitsu friend. Another thing I appreciate about him is he doesn’t suggest that you should stop doing the activities you love, (jiuJitsu and yoga). He works with you and makes a plan for you to heal.

Comment: I started working with Brandon to address some ongoing knee and ankle pain that I had felt for years, but had never been able to identify the root cause. I felt physical and mental relief after our first session, and the strength and confidence I have gained since has been priceless. He uses a variety of techniques to find and fix the problem, and he has been really proactive in checking in every single week and tweaking anything that isn’t working for my body. Before seeing him, there would be at least one day per week where I would have to skip my workout because of my pain. I am only two months in to working with him, and I have not had that experience once. If you are pushing through pain because it’s not *that* bad or you don’t think it’s serious enough to address, book an appointment with Brandon now!!! He will get you pain-free and keep you there.

Comment: Two months ago I woke up with excruciating lower back pain which then lead to sciatica down my lower right half.I had never experienced pain like this and wasn’t sure what to do. I went to the doctors where they prescribed me steroids for the week. That seemed to mask the pain but as soon as I finished the pack the pain came right back. I had heard great things about Brandon so I reached out for help.During our first initial session, Brandon was very knowledgeable and was able to pinpoint where my pain was starting from which was immobility in my hips. I’ve always felt like I’ve had tight hips but had never done anything about it. Right away Brandon started giving me exercises to deal with this.Within a month my sciatic pain went away - I could finally put on my shoes without being in pain and go on a walk without having to cut it short. Brandon and I had set a goal that by a month and a half I would be able to go on my skiing trip that I had already planned. Sure enough I was able to ski without any problems and I’ve even gotten back to taking boot camp workouts that include running on the treadmill.Brandon makes you feel like you are his only client. He sets up daily exercises / stretches for you to do on your own on the days that you don’t have an in person session. He even remembers when I told him I have specific activities coming up like yoga, and he checked in with me after to see how I was feeling.I couldn’t recommend Brandon more and am so grateful that I found him.

Comment: My wife’s sciatica continued to linger for several months despite meeting with several doctors and chiropractors.A good friend suggested scheduling an appointment after his experience with Brandon. In a month my wife finally began noticing a difference.This process wasn’t easy to watch and I am thankful for Brandon’s in depth knowledge and commitment to his patients. The discussions, videos, exercises, and his awesome personality has made this experience wonderful.Happy to report we are back to golfing and playing racquetball. My wife is able to twist and turn with great mobility bette than before.Thank you so much Brandon! I’ll sure be coming to you when I need someone and would recommend to anyone.

Comment: I first started working with Brandon 11/10/21 as my in home Pt after my knee replacement surgery. Ive gone from not being able to lift my leg off the floor onto the couch to being able to do things I havent been able to do in 30 years! After my PT was finished I started working with him as a personal trainer. .the gym can be intimidating for an 58 yr old whose never worked out before. But Brandons gentle and professional manner made all the difference in the world ! Im currently working on core strengthening for my lower back, thats where Brandons technical skills are invaluable. I could go on and on .but Ill, end with this one fact. Im turning 60 this year and Im in the Best shape of my life ! Nuff said . Ron Shepard

Comment: I came to Pascual Performance after tearing my meniscus. This was only 2 days after tearing it and he had me walking without the crutches after the first session! I was able to walk without worry by Friday after only doing his exercises for 5 days. I had torn my meniscus before and was on crutches for around 3 - 4 weeks so this was a major improvement than when I previously injured it. Brandon was very knowledgable and did a ton of different tests to get the same diagnosis that a knee specialist and MRI confirmed weeks later. Id highly recommend him to anyone dealing with injuries or looking for a physical therapist!

Comment: I have had nagging shoulder pain from an old injury for about 10 years now, and it was starting to affect my day to day life. Massages and the chiropractor were just temporary reliefs to a more long term issue. Brandon was able to help me detect the root/cause of my pain, and what needed to be done to help resolve the pain, and finally heal. Based off the stretches, exercises, and sessions we have you can tell Brandon is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented when it comes to his patients. We not only improving the targeted area, but helping re-train my body and muscles to function properly, so my pains dont return. I have experienced immense relief from a pain aspect, and in fact feel more mobile/flexible then ever. As well as seen my strength improve in the gym, as my form has naturally improved thanks to Brandon.

Comment: PP Physical Therapy should be your one stop for any type of body part pain or injury.I came to Brandons private practice about a month ago because I felt throbbing pain starting in my right arm shooting down my arm and hand. Initially I thought I had damaged my rotator cuff, but after getting a full evaluation from Brandon it turned out to be something else. The diagnosis for the pain came from overworking my trapezius/neck area from improper form/posture during my strength training workouts.The pain was at an 8 and prohibited from doing upper body workouts with weights, chores (washing dishes) and even made it hard to sleep. After working together once a week, for the last month, the pain is gone and we are training my body to work different back muscles.I have been to physical therapy once but it was through my medical insurance. This time I decided to not use insurance and try private practice instead to see if I can get different results.I feel like the service here at PP Physical Therapy is beyond what I expected. Each week we work on body muscle isolation and education. Brandon’s goal is to teach his clients so the injuries are minimized from the wear and tear we put on our bodies. He has a great approach to client care and his musculoskeletal expertise proves that his sessions ensure efficient and quick recovery.

Comment: I usually don’t write reviews but I HUGELY recommend Dr Pascual for any and all things related to physical therapy! I started off with personal training and it’s reassuring to know that he can help me reach my fitness goals all while being in a safe and friendly environment. If you’re nervous about choosing the right Physical Therapist you have absolutely nothing to worry about with him! He’s given me a very noticeable increase in my strength and endurance which has kept me motivated for more!

Comment: Ive been seeing Brandon for a few months now, and I can now say hes the best Physical Therapist I have ever worked with.After 20 years of military service and nine surgeries, I was not a fan of physical therapy. Im convinced that most physical therapists are trained to push people through a cookie-cutter recovery program, void of any tailoring or customization. But after injury after injury and poor/improper recovery, my back was a hot mess. My trainer recommended Brandon, and now Im a believer!I am in less pain than ever before and am on the road to living my best life. His knowledge and approach have been outstanding. He is also very affordable—I have full Tricare with a 100% disability rating, but I choose to pay out-of-pocket for his care and services! I have no hesitation recommending him to anyone who wants to get back on track with their health!Also, a special shout-out to the TrueCoach app. Brandon uses. The videos of me doing the training makes doing things at home easier, so I dont get off track. True Coach gets four stars because I dont like the reminder when I forget to complete the app.;

Comment: Before seeing Brandon, I was suffering from shoulder pain. At the time, I had already seen two physical therapists and they were only able to help me with my pain temporarily. I even spent hundreds of dollars to see a massage therapist and unfortunately, it also removed my shoulder pain temporarily. I was 20-years-old when I was diagnosed with a frozen shoulder and being this young with such an injury was not easy. I constantly compared myself to my “healthier” peers who were able-bodied to do everyday and recreational activities. When I moved to San Diego, I finally decided to seek a personal trainer. I stumbled upon Pascual Performance and was drawn to Brandon’s credential as a doctor in physical therapy. I was just a week into his program and I was already seeing results! Brandon had me focus on rehab exercises for the first few months so that I can “build up”/“wake up”/“turn on” my back muscles since mine were so weak. When pain arose during these seven months, Brandon was able to immediately educate me by addressing why I was feeling pain, correcting my form, and modifying the exercises. Today, I have been with him for about seven months and I have never felt more resilient. My shoulder is stronger and I am no longer complaining about the pain! I am now focusing on strengthening and conditioning my muscles. I am so excited to continue this journey with him! I have never been happier about my lifestyle! Brandon truly is a pain relief expert!

Comment: Brandon Pascual is amazing and I would recommend him to anybody. He has been with me since my injury first happened (broken leg) and I can truly say that I owe my recovery and progress to him! Brandon goes out of his way to make every session personalized and positive. And in between sessions, he checks in and sends workouts and exercises for his patients to do on their own. He has a way of making every client feel like his ONLY client.

Comment: Dr. Brandon has helped me with my persistent low back pain. I also needed a strength program to help me be more resilient in jiu jitsu. Dr. Brandon was thorough with his approach for my treatment. I can now say, I feel 100% pain free and will continue to be for a long time with the tools he has given me! 10/10 highly recommend!!

Comment: Dr. Pascual helped me a ton with my hip pain that I’ve been dealing with for 3+ years. He taught me what’s going on in my hip, what exercises to do on my own, and how to adjust the way I run and workout at the gym. After a few sessions working with him, my pain went down significantly and I’m no longer reliant on meds to get me through the pain! No other chiropractor, PT, or personal trainer was able to do this for me. I recommend Dr. Pascual to anyone looking to get over their pain and return to an active lifestyle.

Comment: I started working with Dr. Pascual sometime last year due to chronic low back pain sustained during deadlifts at a gym. He performed a thorough evaluation in order to see whats really going on before instructing me on various mobility drills and strengthening my core and glutes to alleviate the symptoms on my low back. Fast forward to present day, I could finally say that my symptoms have significantly improved over the course of 4 months. I was able to get back to the gym with little to no pain while implementing the knowledge he had instilled in me. I would recommend anyone to work with Dr. Pascual without any hesitation!

Comment: I’ve had a history of severe sciatica developed from heavy squat and deadlift movements. Any advanced level lifters moving serious weight will eventually experience some kind of lower body and pain. With this in mind I highly recommend consulting and working with a skilled and knowledgeable DPT such as Brandon.He helped me get back on track with my lifts after a serious back injury that riddled me with a sever case of sciatica. At one point I could not even tie my shoes or sleep but Brandon was able to diagnose and apply the proper knowledge to treat the pain and prevent any future pain.He showed me a plethora of stretching movements directly tailored to my lower back pain that I was able to add to my arsenal before and after lifting and it has made a world of difference. Working with Brandon is the best decision you can make towards curing your athletic pain and I am forever grateful.

Comment: Ive been working with Brandon for a few months now and I can already tell the difference in my strength and the way that my form has been corrected. Brandons background of physical therapy helps immensely with the injuries Ive incurred over the years. He works with you and your bodies limits. Ive not had a single injury from working out since I have started with him. I am finally seeing the results of our work together. He is also extremely knowledgeable in understanding each individual client and our needs for what our goals are. 10/10 would recommend and I implore everyone to work with him if they get the chance.

Comment: I consider myself a fairly active person who lifts weights and would run 3 miles fours times/week. I started experiencing left hip pain that made it difficult to walk or even tie my shoe and decided to go to outpatient physical therapy. The main PT barely worked on me or did anything hands on and then I was passed to a different aid every time for basic exercises that didn’t help and most of the time I had to remind them what my injury was. I started looking around and that’s when I found Brandon 3 years ago who completely changed my life. Not only did he fix what regular PTs couldn’t in 3 months in 1 day, but he was very knowledgeable and explained why I was having issues and how to prevent it. In 1 hour of stretches, dynamic warmups and specific exercises for my hip, the pain I came in with was completely gone! I love working with Brandon and haven’t had anymore pain since that session. He has helped me reach my goal in getting stronger and being able to run again pain free. I highly recommend him for any injury or general strength training as I know first hand it works!

Comment: I recently had my 2nd knee replacement and worked with Brandon on my home therapy/recovery program for approx 5 weeks. I can simply say that my experience with Brandon has been nothing short of spectacular. I have completed my therapy goals at this point and am at least 2-3 weeks ahead of where I was at this stage during my other knee replacement. I have mobility, stability and strength that I would not have thought possible at 5 weeks post surgery. Brandon is a true professional - on time - carefully and patiently explaining each exercise including how and why we were doing it and providing guidance and positive reinforcement throughout each session. He pushes you to accomplish your goals and to go above and beyond if possible. He is an excellent communicator as well. I was so pleased with my therapy results that I personally recommended him to my orthopedic surgeon for future referrals. My surgeon was equally impressed with my progress and requested Brandons contact information which I gladly provided.

Comment: In July of 2022, I was in a car accident during a 30th birthday road trip in Arizona that unfortunately left me with 2 surgeries. I was inserted a rod & 4 screws for my broken femur and then a plate & 3 screws for a tibial plateau fracture.I had gone through 3 different traditional Physical Therapists where the booking process was arduous since it had to go through my health insurance just to book. I didn’t want to keep paying for Ubers to PT, so I googled nearby therapists in the Linda Vista/Mission Valley area and Pascual Performance was the closest to me. I didn’t have a car but it was a 22 minute walk. I liked walking and it was helpful for my leg anyways!I called Brandon, he picked up quickly, said his sessions are usually $65 not through insurance and said I could come in for a consultation. I had to think about it but in comparison, I was paying about the same price if not more in Ubers and copays. I went in for a 30-minute consultation and the longer you commit, the less expensive the sessions are. I could only do 2 months for reasons explained below but he still let me pay $60 each session. Expect to pay the full amount you commit to at the time to booking. He was flexible enough to let me pay a day later since I was unsure but after the first session, I knew I had made the right decision! I hadn’t felt as physically pushed with my last therapists at SHARP and really liked how Brandon stays with you 1-on-1 throughout the hour-long session to ensure you were doing the moves correctly. With traditional PTs, you’re left with an aid for the last half hour who may not always be paying attention or know the correct form.I told him I was in a bit of a time crunch because I wanted to get my leg ready for a year-long trip to Australia in 2 months (my visa restricted me to leave early December). I had been wanting more of an athletic-based Therapist and since he’s also a Personal Trainer, his sessions actually felt like workouts which I preferred. I expressed how I typically am pretty active and want to get back into running, weight lifting, hiking, surfing, snowboarding, & diving. After these 2 short months, I’ve been able to start hiking, jogging, climbing stairs, weight lifting, dancing & jumping again! He said he feels confident that I can attempt surfing and diving again too.In addition to his in-session practice, he also provides updated daily programs which are easy to sustain at home because they didn’t take longer than 30 minutes. My programs before took 45+ minutes which I didn’t want to do as consistently. He also provides scraping, cupping, myofascial release to supplement ROM/mobility limitations & muscle atrophy.If you’re thinking about working with Brandon, I’d highly recommend at least trying out a session and I’m sure you’ll want to keep going. I wish I was able to stay with him longer! Brandon truly cares about his patients’ progress and is easy to contact if you have any questions, no matter what day it is. He’s passionate and highly knowledgeable about PT - I’ve learned a lot about how my own body works from him. He said he’d still provide me with exercises while I’m in Australia before I can find a new PT overseas. He’s truly changed the way I see Physical Therapy after going through so many.Bonus points: You sometimes get to keep using the gym equipment after your sessions are over AND can bring in your dog! They have a large kennel and he also has an office they can cheer you on from. :)

Comment: Brandon is a great coach/trainer! He is a very knowledgeable professional trainer, and he is also very easygoing and works with individual clients based on each client’s needs. I came to Brandon for a physical therapy session because of a shoulder injury. I visited two different chiropractors that day before Brandon’s physical therapy session. The adjustments from the chiropractors were helpful, but I was still not able to move my right arm. After an hour session with Brandon, I was able to raise my right arm above my head and did several other movements. I couldnt thank him enough because he made the pain go away and I would say Brandon’s session helped accelerate the recovery process! I continue to work with Brandon for my other injuries/pains and I’m seeing great results so far! He gives me exercises to work from home in addition to the in-person training, and these exercises help heal and prevent the pain from coming back. I would definitely recommend Brandon because of his knowledge and experience with physical therapy training and he is just a great trainer to work with overall!

Comment: Came to Brandon for bilateral knee pain (runners knee) after a year of trying different things: no running, physical therapy (through insurance), pilates, injections, etc. Brandon was quick to assess and explain what was going on and what I needed to work on- better than any doctor ever did. His plan for me was a rehab/strengthening hybrid that focused not only on building muscle, but learning how to relieve stress on my knees through mobility work! We met once a week and he assigned workouts for the week through an app that made me accountable for completing them. Its the most consistent Ive ever been with working out. Not only have I gotten stronger overall, but my knee pain is much improved- Id say (hopefully) almost completely gone after 3 months of working with Brandon. He is very personable, great at explaining things, and flexible with providing the type of coaching you need (Ill be traveling for a month soon). Highly recommend!

Comment: I went to an evaluation with Brandon for back pain. This led to realizing I hadn’t any body awareness when doing my workouts.We started working in my overall flexibility, especially in my ankles and hips. Also, I started working on my core strength, which I didn’t have.We meet once a week and I also do 2 more workouts on my own for the rest of the week. My program is constantly updating as time passes, focusing on my main goals but also treating anything that comes up along the way.I really recommend working out with Brandon because he is truly interested in figuring out the workouts that you need, he takes the time to explain them and scale the movements when is needed.

Comment: I reached out to Brandon, because of chronic shoulder pain that I had been experiencing for several months without resolve. I found him to be easy to talk to and could tell he genuinely cared about my situation.He conducted an in depth interview and assessment where he identified the root cause of why I was experiencing the pain and in addition to the in person sessions, gave me additional exercises I could perform on my own to expedite recovery. I loved that he also explained why we were doing the exercises and the root cause of my pain.In my short time since working with Brandon my pain is almost completely gone after months of no relief. So grateful that I got the opportunity to work with him.

Comment: When I first came to see Brandon I was suffering from an acute and very painful lower back injury. By the second visit I had already felt a great deal of relief since Brandon was able to identify the problem immediately and the exercises he prescribed worked very efficiently to alleviate my pain. I would highly recommend using his services since hes not only very knowledgeable but he really cares about his clients success and well-being.

Comment: I recently (in the last few months) began experiencing shoulder pain from transitioning to working at a desk for longer stretches of time. I reached out to Brandon for support and he gave me some recovery-based exercises to do which I began to incorporate into my daily workout programming. I also worked with a massage therapist for several months.I’m time, my shoulder pain was just about gone. I wanted to make sure I rebuilt the strength in my shoulder the right way to set myself up for success in the long term, so I hit up Brandon again. He provided me with an array of exercises and recommendations that I’ll add into my programming again.Brandon is intelligent and helpful. Each time I get support from him, he does a thorough examination and provides me exercise along with reference videos for my needs. As a CrossFit coach, I refer all my athletes to him whenever they feel pain and I’ve only seen great results for them. Highly recommend Brandon to help heal pain and get you strong!

Comment: I started working with Brandon back in February after I had a nasty back injury that had me stuck on the couch for weeks. I reached out to him letting him know what happened and he promptly got me in for an assessment. He was very attentive, super thorough and answered all of my questions and concerns in a way that helped me to understand how and why exactly my injury occurred. Brandon then formed a plan to get me back to feeling like myself again. Physical therapy can be a difficult and timely process, but I am so glad I went all in on trusting him to help me heal! I cannot thank him enough. I highly recommend Brandon when it comes to your own physical therapy journey. Movement is medicine!

Comment: I met Brandon in 2019 after having hip replacement surgery. He was far different than my regular PT and he made such an impact that I made sure to stay in touch with him.He is honestly the best PT/trainer I have ever had the pleasure of working with! He CARES!When a person cares it shows in their work and everything that they do! He not only gives you fantastic PT/training but follows up to make sure you are okay after sessions that may have been harder.If you are lucky enough to read this and get the pleasure of his incredible hard work you will absolutely benefit from Pascual Performance.I can tell you honestly that Pascual Performance is by far the best out there. I highly recommend Pascual Performance for any PT/Personal training needs you may have.

Comment: Brandon is knowledgeable and has been very helpful to both me and my spouse’s physical recovery so that we can engage in our respective sports again. I think the working with him is not only helping me to recover back to where I was but to actually get stronger than I was before the injury in some ways, surpassing my expectations.
