Sports Physical Therapy & Performance Clinic for Athletes and Active Adults in Danville

Injuries Strip you of your identity

Find out how HELIX can help

Welcome to HELIX Performance Physical Therapy! Here, we redefine your journey beyond injury by empowering both current and former athletes to rediscover their athletic identities. When you get injured you’re not only in pain, but you can’t play your sport or do the things that keep you competing. Watching the game from the sideline is the worst, going to the gym is a waste, and that daily walk with your dog is the last thing you want to do. You lose your identity when you are hurt. The worst part? You know the doctor is going to suggest “easing off” or cutting back” or “stopping” altogether – we know that is not an option. That is where HELIX can help! Located in the heart of the East Bay Area, our clinic proudly serves athletes in Alamo, Danville, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Orinda, Moraga, San Ramon, Castro Valley, Dublin, Pleasanton, and Livermore.

Our proven 3-phase recovery program

1.

Create the plan

Together you and your physical therapist will create a plan to get you back to your best self as soon as possible. During this stage, you’ll figure out the root cause, and understand what steps need to be taken to reach your goals, beyond injury.

2.

Execute the plan

Along with your physical therapist, you will know each step of your personalized plan, from getting you off the sideline to bringing you back to what you love. Physical therapy is a combination of hands-on techniques, exercises and hard work in the gym. This will likely be a lot different than any physical therapy you’ve done before.

3.

Maintain peak performance

After completing your treatment plan, we give you the keys. Throughout your Physical Therapy journey, you’ll have been given the skills to identify when things might be getting worse, and what to do about it. Patients will also often transition to our Hybrid Training Program to continue their progress and take the guesswork out of their workouts.

WHAT DO YOU GET AT HELIX?

Experience personalized care with our 60-minute, one-on-one sessions led by your dedicated Physical Therapist. Trust and continuity of care are paramount for your journey to recovery.
At HELIX, we don’t just address symptoms; we treat the entire body during every visit. Our approach goes beyond insurance constraints, focusing on your holistic well-being rather than just a diagnosis.
Benefit from customized care that yields quicker results. With fewer visits and targeted treatment plans, we help you return to your best self faster than you thought possible.
Your journey is unique, so why settle for a one-size-fits-all approach? At HELIX, we design personalized programs tailored specifically to you and your needs.
Our support extends beyond the clinic. Access our mobile app to stay connected with your Physical Therapist, track your progress, and access personalized injury homework and programs anytime, anywhere.
We prioritize your overall health and wellness. Beyond injury management, we address factors like workout routines, sleep patterns, and stress management to ensure comprehensive care.
Performance Physical Therapy is the best of both worlds. We use the latest approaches to evaluate, treat, and get you out of pain faster while also getting you back out there moving and feeling stronger than ever before. We have a full gym set up and make your Physical Therapy look more like a personal training session rather than a massage appointment (not that those aren’t nice). Make sure you wear your gym clothes! This isn’t like any Physical Therapy you have done before!
Transition seamlessly from therapy to ongoing performance training with our Hybrid Performance Training program. Designed for graduates of our Physical Therapy, it ensures continued progress and performance excellence.
For athletes in Danville and beyond, we specialize in sports rehabilitation, particularly for baseball players and throwers. Our focus on athleticism and tailored approaches help athletes of all levels reclaim peak performance.
At HELIX, we stay ahead with the latest technology and research-backed techniques. Our commitment to innovation not only enhances performance but also accelerates recovery for our athletes.

Can’t say enough about Wes

I hurt my leg training for a marathon and after working with him a few months, my leg feels GREAT! I just got home from a trip to Europe that I was a little worried about. I felt 100% the 2nd or 3rd day in Paris - maybe it was the 12-13 miles we were walking every day, maybe it was the French bread/wine, maybe it was both. Since i've been back, i've been riding my (indoor) bike too, just trying to get my leg stronger (still going to the gym, still doing my exercises). 

THANK YOU for all of your efforts, your knowledge, your patience. I couldn't have done it without your guidance.  And it is 100000% appreciated.

Skilled and very engaging

I found Wes while he was at Diablo PT via Yelp when I needed help with severe sciatic pain. I was able to schedule sessions with Wes and was amazed at his knowledge, skill and very engaging personality.

At no time did I ever feel that I was getting a "cookie cutter" problem. He listens very well and works with you as an individual to provide exactly what you need.

I can't say enough good things about Wes and how much he helped me fully recover and get even better than I was before my injury.

I feel better each time I leave

Wes Anderson is one of the best physical therapist I have ever had. He is professional, bright, explains everything he is doing to strengthen my body, and I feel better each time I leave. He does not just give you a massage. He is breaking down tight muscles and gives me more flexibility and movement.

No matter what your issue is, you will get the best of care

I highly recommend Wes in Danville. Before going to Wes I had gone to several other places. Wes is, hands down, the one of the best. I saw him at his old clinic in Danville Diablo Physical Therapy. No matter what your issue is, you will get the best of care.

Super detail oriented

Wes is awesome. Very knowledgeable and supportive.

Super detail oriented, reviewed my surgery notes and stick with me through each rep to make sure I'm doing it right. Hands down the best PT experience l've ever had.

Makes the process a vastly easier therapy

Wes puts a lot of attention into the process, and keeps you involved with his great sense of humor. Though the exercises can be arduous, he makes the process a vastly easier therapy.
