Get back to running, lifting, and the activities you love without being told to rest or stop training. Our performance-focused approach treats the root cause of your knee pain so you can move stronger and pain-free.
Knee pain doesn’t just slow you down—it changes how you move through life. Whether it’s limiting your workouts, keeping you off the trails, or making simple movements feel impossible, ignoring it won’t make it go away.
You’ve been told to “just rest”
But weeks turn into months, and the pain comes right back the moment you try to return to activity.
Your training is suffering
You’re modifying every workout, avoiding movements you used to love, and wondering if you’ll ever get back to full strength.
You’re frustrated with quick fixes
Painkillers, ice, and generic stretches aren’t addressing why your knee hurts in the first place.
At The Movement Schopp, we don’t just treat your symptoms—we find and fix the root cause of your knee pain so you can get back to performing at your highest level.
Our Doctors of Physical Therapy specialize in working with active adults, runners, CrossFit athletes, and weekend warriors who refuse to let pain sideline them. Through comprehensive movement assessments and personalized treatment plans, we’ll identify the weakness, imbalance, or movement pattern that’s causing your knee pain—and give you the tools to eliminate it.
What sets us apart:
“The Movement Schopp was great. After running a marathon I did not know why I was having knee troubles during training. Andrew was able to get me going and explain what I was doing that initiated the wear on my knees. From knee pain to acknowledging other areas I would not go anywhere else. From an athlete in weightlifting, golf and running every one at the Movement Schopp made you feel welcomed and genuinely wanted to see you progress.”

We’ll take you through a comprehensive biomechanical assessment to identify exactly what’s causing your pain. Then we’ll explain what needs to be done to get you back to full speed and back to the activities you enjoy.
We’ll develop a treatment plan tailored specifically to you and your goals. This ultimately allows us to get you stronger, pain-free, and on track to reach your goals more effectively and efficiently.
After we treat your current symptoms, our focus shifts to optimizing your physical health and well-being. We’ll ensure you reach and maintain top condition through preventive strategies going forward.
Whether you’re dealing with a recent injury or chronic pain that’s been lingering for months, our team has the expertise to help you recover and perform at your best.

“I came to the movement schopp with a new passion for running looking to improve my time in a half marathon with significant knee pain. What they did was really get to the bottom of my problem (IT band!), understand why it occurred and then worked to fix the root cause and create a place to continue to enjoy and improve my fitness for years to come. Can’t recommend enough. Come here if you wanna get better… for good!”

“I normally don’t write reviews but I love this place! I came in with knee pain from a prior dislocation, and chronic back pain. I saw multiple doctors here (Tori and Taylor) but everyone here was super knowledgeable and super nice. This even stems out to the front desk and the client success director Mak! Since I have started coming here, I have been able to run half marathons, full marathons, compete in triathlons, and even completed my first Hyrox, PAIN FREE!”

Get answers to common questions about physical therapy and how we can help you recover from knee pain.
No! California has Direct Access laws, which means you don’t need a referral from a doctor to begin physical therapy. You can schedule directly with us and start your recovery right away. Most patients can book their first appointment within just a few days.
Recovery time varies depending on the severity of your condition and how long you’ve been dealing with pain. Some clients see significant improvement within 4-6 weeks, while others with chronic issues may need 8-12 weeks. During your first visit, we’ll give you a personalized timeline based on your specific situation and goals.
Your first visit is 60-75 minutes long. We’ll conduct a comprehensive biomechanical assessment to identify the root cause of your knee pain, start your treatment, and walk you step-by-step through your personalized recovery plan. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what’s causing your pain and exactly how we’re going to fix it.
Absolutely! Unlike traditional approaches that tell you to rest or stop training, we work with you to modify your workouts so you can stay active during recovery. Our goal is to keep you moving safely while we address the underlying issue—so you don’t lose fitness or momentum.
We work with most major insurance plans. Our team will verify your benefits and explain your coverage during the scheduling process. We’re committed to making quality care accessible, so don’t let insurance questions stop you from getting the help you need.
