Stop letting elbow pain keep you off the course, out of the gym, or away from the activities you love. At The Movement Schopp, our one-on-one performance physical therapy gets to the root cause — so you can move better, feel stronger, and stay active. Rated 5 stars by 339+ patients near Torrance.
Tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, and chronic elbow pain don’t have to be your new normal — but ignoring them usually makes things worse.
Rest, ice, and waiting it out haven’t made the pain go away. Every swing, rep, or reach reminds you that something is wrong — and it’s starting to limit what you can do.
You’ve been given band-aid solutions that treat the symptom, not the source. Without finding the real cause of your elbow pain, the problem keeps coming back.
Golf, lifting, running, CrossFit — the things you love most are the first to go when elbow pain flares up. You’re not ready to be told to stop. You need a real plan.
At The Movement Schopp, you get an hour of focused, one-on-one care with the same Doctor of Physical Therapy every visit — not rushed exercises in a crowded gym. We find the real cause of your elbow pain, build a plan around your goals, and keep you moving the whole time.
Your first 75-minute visit is a thorough evaluation to uncover exactly what’s driving your elbow pain — not just where it hurts, but why. We assess movement, strength, and mechanics to get the full picture.
Using hands-on manual therapy, targeted therapeutic exercise, and advanced modalities like IASTM and Blood Flow Restriction, we address the root cause and restore pain-free movement and strength.
We don’t just get you out of pain — we build the resilience to keep you there. With injury prevention strategies, movement screening, and your personalized app plan, you stay strong and active long-term.
Whether you’re a golfer dealing with medial elbow pain, a lifter struggling with tendinopathy, or an athlete looking for elbow pain physical therapy near me, our performance-focused DPTs have the expertise to identify and treat the source of your pain — so you can get back to doing what you love.

“Within two weeks, the pain that had plagued me for years was gone.” As a lifelong runner in my late 50s, I endured sacroiliac joint pain for years. Dr. Andrew works with you one on one for the entire one hour session, providing focused individual care. After four months of therapy, not only was I running pain free, but I also shaved a remarkable 34 minutes off my marathon time.

“My pain is gone and my shoulder strength and mobility significantly increased.” I had an excellent experience working with Tori, at Movement Schopp, for a shoulder muscle impingement. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and took the time to explain each exercise and the purpose behind it. Thanks to their guidance, my pain is gone. The whole staff was supportive and great to work with.

“I can now enjoy a much more active lifestyle.” I was suffering from severe hip and back pain before starting my physical therapy sessions at Movement Schopp. After working with Dr. Daniel Ignatius, I’ve resolved most—if not all—of my pain. Dr. Ignatius has an excellent bedside manner, is extremely attentive, and is genuinely committed to helping his patients reach their health goals.
