Kore Physical Therapy - Upland, California

Pili is absolutely amazing, professional, and knowledgeable! I have had P.T. for other issues elsewhere, but I have never had this type of exceptional therapy like I have had at Kore Therapy. I live in Whittier and the 45 minute drive is more than worth it. Scott is always so helpful with helping me make appointments and Fernando is a fantastic assistant. I highly recommend Kore Therapy.

Kore Physical Therapy is the best place to go for physical therapy. The Facility is clean and relaxing. All the staff are friendly and helpful. My physical therapist was Pili. Pili is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and gentle. She always takes the time to work with you, never rushing. I got excellent results following my recent lumbar fusion surgery. I also went to Pili in 2017 following my rotator cuff shoulder surgery. Again, I had excellent results.

Pili is the absolute BEST Physical Therapist in the area! I was referred to her in 2006 after I had a double knee replacement and I actually enjoyed the rehab, not the pain involved, but the fact I was getting my mobility back. Since then I have gone on and off to see her and always come away much better than when I enter. KORE is owned and run by Pili, it's in a convenient location on Monte Vista just above Foothill. If you need PT, go and see Pili and the crew (and say hi to Halo the wonderful therapy dog).

I've been a patient at KORE twice now, and will be returning soon again. The first was after my knee replacement in March of 2019. Thanks to Pili and Levi, my knee is fantastic! I won't say it was easy, but it was totally worth all the hard work, and with the whole team cheering you on you feel like a rockstar! Since then I retuned due to issues with my achilles tendon/bone spur in my heel. We worked really hard on avoiding surgery but there really isn't much more that can be done when you have a spur growing into your achilles. Pili, Levi and Cassie did work hard to get me some relief, which they succeeded at, but now it's time to have the surgery. Bizarre as it may seem, I'm looking forward to going back for my rehab post surgery! The only reason that is possible is because of the great work the ENTIRE staff does at KORE.
The facility is spotless, even before Covid-19, and their procedures in place since the pandemic are fantastic.
Pili, Thorhild, Levi, Cassie, Kortney and Scott are gifted in what they do, I'm so thankful for KORE.

Kore Physical Therapy is so incredibly amazing, reputable and committed to getting you back to health and functioning. My physical therapist Pili is absolutely brilliant. She has her Doctorate with over 20 years of experience in her field and she is enthusiastic about every aspect of her work. She is up to date on all current research and implements every therapeutic modality possible to restore your strength. She is not just a physical therapist but a healer. Her presence and energy is contagious . I always come out from sessions not only stronger, with increased range of motion and decreased pain but also with a greater peace of mind through her healing presence. It is not a job but a calling for her. She is knowledgeable, knows the anatomy and capabilities of the body inside and out. Her bright presence, depth of knowledge and devotion to her craft is unprecedented. I honestly cannot say enough good things about her. She is so skilled in working with you at your pace to help you regain functioning, strength and leave stronger than pre-injury. All of the staff is extremely professional, personable and friendly- Scott, Courtney, Levi and Cassie. Kore PT is committed to their patients and makes every accommodation to work with your schedule. They are convenient and their facility is pristine, important in the land of COVID-19. They sanitize everything and socially distance their patients. She spends time getting to know you while helping you heal. Pili is the best and most humble physical therapist. I love Kore PT and highly recommend it!!!

I cannot recommend Kore Physical Therapy highly enough! I came in with an injury in my lumbar region (L4, L5, and S1) that resulted in pretty severe sciatic nerve pain in my right leg and numbness throughout my left leg and foot. While I ultimately will need to have (hopefully minimal) surgery to fully restore feeling to my left leg, the treatment and program that I received from the team here has minimized my pain and discomfort from miserable, sleepless nights all the way back to feeling like I can function at a regular level (especially with a four year-old and a six month old).

I worked specifically with Torhild Kvarekvaal, but the entire team at Kore treat you like family from the minute you walk through the door. Pili, Scott, Levi and Courtney all were part of my journey back to functioning at a more consistent and pain-free level. I was able to receive a combination of manual therapy (one-on-one adjustments, stretches, and strength assessments) along with the individualized resistance training routine I was prescribed and assisted with. One of the aspects that I appreciated most about my time at Kore is the value I felt I received in regards to the financial cost involved. I was paying out of pocket, and at no time did I ever feel like I was wasting my money due to short sessions or a lack of passion on their part; my average session length was a little over two hours each time. Even more, my treatments would finish with about twenty minutes of STEM treatment (electrical stimulation to my lower back and left leg). The combination of manual therapy, resistance training, and STEM all led to a dramatic improvement in my overall strength, body awareness, and pain management.

Overall, I have been to chiropractors, acupuncture, massage therapy and one other physical therapy office, and KORE provided me with the greatest foundation for recovery. I believe that was because of their cumulative experience, which in turn allows them to properly assess what ails you, and the level of compassion and empathy that exists in every practitioner there. I mean, there was one session I came in completely exhausted from a sleepless night of discomfort; as my leg has regained some amount of sensation, the pins and needles feeling that follows doesn't always lend itself to sleeping through the night. Anyways, I happened to fall asleep during my STEM treatment, and they were kind enough to let me nap for a whole hour before I was kindly awoken. That will certainly be an act of kindness I remember and take with me as I go through life.

I don't believe you can go wrong at KORE. Your emotional and physical well-being are treated with the utmost in care and respect, and they will provide you with the strongest of foundations to improve whatever physical ailments you may have.

Torhild is simply the most thorough, advanced and refined physical therapist my family has ever encountered. I and my two children have all been patients of hers. One not only feels better after the session, but has confidence that things will continue to get better. The whole staff is welcoming and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is calm.

I was in sever pain requiring a very specialized treatment. Pili saw me right away. The interview process was very thorough and she listened to everything I had to say, with serious consideration. Her treatment was spot on and she gave me a sense of optimism I haven't experienced in years.

I feel like I've won the lottery w Kore Physical Therapy.
