This review is long overdue!Over a year ago, I threw out my back and was in excruciating pain—barely able to walk. A good friend recommended Athletic Edge, and I’m so grateful they did. From day one, Cali was incredible—she not only helped relieve my pain but also pinpointed the root cause and taught me exercises that made the recovery process so much more manageable.For the past 8 months, I’ve also been working with Natasha, and I can’t say enough great things. While I’m no longer dealing with major injuries, she’s helped me feel stronger, move better, and maintain an overall sense of well-being.The entire team at Athletic Edge is exceptional—this is a facility full of knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated physical therapists. I’ve even sent my dad and boyfriend for sessions, and both left feeling significantly better.If you’re dealing with pain, recovering from an injury, or just want to move through life feeling your best, you’ll be in great hands here. Highly recommend! Less

HIGHLY recommend the Athletic Edge team, particularly Dr. Greg Banks. Dr. Banks helped me recover from back pain and get on a strength training plan to achieve a big personal milestone with a thoughtful, personalized approach that really worked. Highly recommend Dr. Banks to anyone looking for expert, hands-on care. Less

The staff are always kind, provide genuine care, and are very knowledgeable. I always leave feeling truly cared for, which means the most to me. The facility is also very clean and equipped with up-to-date technology and equipment—which is just the icing on the cake! Less

As a runner, I was searching for a sports physical therapist who can help with my ongoing shin splints / posterior tibialis especially whenever I’m training for a half marathon. I’ve never seen a physical therapist and was desperate to get help since my half was about 5 weeks away. I just did a google search, found them and before making the initial consultation I viewed their IG and was convinced to take a shot. So… Dr. Natasha is amazing! She’s easygoing, personable, present and down to earth. In fact her entire team are which is a total plus. I was already on the right track with including strength sessions but they weren’t intentional so she was able to create personalized exercises tailored to my needs. I’ve learned so much and enjoyed every session. Overall, I was able to complete my half without any pain and recovery post race was easy. This was my 3rd half and this time I was left with a positive outcome because Athletic Edge are amazing. I am in totally shock. At times because of scheduling conflicts I had to see her other team members and they’re great too. I normally do not leave feedback like this or even this detailed but I feel Athletic Edge is worth it. Less

I do not post reviews 98.23 % of the time, good or bad, however I’m compelled to share my experience with Natasha at Athletic Edge. I’ve been a devout client for several years with various injuries, strains, pulls etc. Natasha has diagnosed the issue quickly and put me on a path to recovery. Very knowledgeable and friendly with an excellent rapport with her clients. Everyone at AE is amazing and I cannot recommend this facility enough. Less

I've been working through my chronic back pain with Greg for the past couple months and my experience has been exceptional. Greg spent the first session working with me to understand specifically where and what my pain triggers were and has gotten me onto a much better path to hopefully being pain free. I really appreciate the attention to detail Greg has as I make progress. I really like the app they use to help me track my exercises and workouts that he assigns and appreciate the demo videos they have for each exercise if I need to re check my form.If you are looking for physical therapy Athletic Edge is the best in San Diego. Less

Absolutely so thankful for Natasha’s support through my pregnancy. I saw her in my second trimester and in my third trimester. She not only helped my back pain, but truly made my husband and I feel so prepared for labor. Her content + one on one support for all the different labor positions was the single most supportive thing in my pregnancy. After baby arrives in May, I will definitely be coming back for Natasha’s support postpartum. Less

Natasha and the entire team at Athletic Edge are absolutely incredible. I have been dealing with an on and off shoulder injury for years, and without long term solutions. Natasha is the first therapist who I am confident will set me up for long term success. She took the time to listen to all my concerns and understand how my pain was impacting my day to day life as well as my ability to participate in CrossFit. She set me up with a long term plan to prevent my injury from recurring as well as short term solutions to get my pain under control.Natasha takes the time to get to know here clients injuries as well as hobbies and interests to make sure you can get back to all the activities that are important to you. I am so thankful to have found her! Less

I suffered a herniated disc and a pulled calf muscle from lifting weights and playing basketball during one weekend. The resulting sciatic pain was extreme caused me to go to the urgent care and an ER visit for relief and x-rays within a week of the injury, but neither of those visits properly diagnosed the issue.During the first visit with Natasha, she ran a series of tests to figure out exactly what was the crux of the issue, and then came up with the 10-week plan to address both the herniated disc and calf muscle issues. I am 4 weeks into the 10-week program, and the back/sciatic nerve pain has almost completely subsided, and the calf muscle is well on its way to getting back it's full strength.Natasha is exceptional and incredibly knowledgeable. She has also been flexible to make minor adjustments to the PT workouts along the way based on my progress.Would absolutely recommend for anyone with back issues, or really any other PT needs. Less

I injured both shoulders, both knees and my low back doing Jiu-Jitsu. I would not be able to train if it weren’t for Greg. I recommend Athletic Edge PT for anyone with a sport or fitness related injury. Less

I had reached out to Natasha after a referral. I had a recently ripped groin and also lingering issues in my neck and back from a major bike crash 9 months ago. After 5 sessions and a very focused PT ( Natasha) I truly feel the best I have in very long time . Magical really . My groin is 100 percent and my neck issue which I thought I was going to have to live with, is almost completely without issue. A couple more sessions and I’m sure it will be 100 percent . I am beyond thrilled with where I’m at and look forward to a couple more weeks of snowboarding this season! Natasha is a pro! Less

This place is great and really wants to work with you and tailor to your needs and goals. I’ve played collegiate sports and could tell the PTs have had expierence with all levels of athletes and helping them meet goals/ return to play. Natasha specifically understands the want to push intensity with allowing for proper recovery. Highly reccomend! Less

Greg and Natasha are amazing here. They spend the time to understand not only your physical concerns, but the activities and hobbies in your life that your physical limitations prevent you from participating in. They work with these activities in mind when curating a plan set to get you back to normal. They take feedback with an open mind in order to figure out what directly from the plan is having the most and least impact.Greg and Natasha are both athletic people, so they understand and empathize with their clients easily. Rather than discourage you from your activities, they work with you to find workarounds in your hobbies/activities so that you can continue to participate in them on your path to recovery. Would recommend to anyone. Less

Natasha is one of the more experienced orthopedic, muscular skeletal physical therapist, I know. The quality of care she provides at athletic edge extends beyond normalcy and I highly recommend anyone who has an injury to go see her. Less

I can’t recommend Athletic Edge highly enough! Natasha and her team are truly exceptional—knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly kind. They take the time to explain everything thoroughly, ensuring you understand your treatment plan and feel confident in your recovery. Athletic Edge has helped me heal from multiple injuries over the years, including my recent MCL strain, and I’m so grateful for their expertise and support. The care here goes beyond just physical therapy; they create a welcoming and encouraging environment that makes all the difference. If you’re looking for a top-tier PT team that truly cares about your health and recovery, look no further than Athletic Edge! Less

I’m a high school freshman that came here with knee pain, and greg was able to fix it! I was worried I wouldn’t be able to play much because of the knee pain and I would have to sit out for the season , but after he gave me some stretches to do at home, it made my knees feel so much better and it was able to play pain-free. After my knees started healing, he helped me develop a workout routine to strengthen my legs and keep my knees is good condition. he was super knowledgeable and my knees feel so much better now. He really cared about me and explained everything that he was doing to me. I couldn’t recommend this place more. Less

I can't say enough good things about Natasha and her team at Athletic Edge! Three months ago, I could barely squat due to knee and hip pain. With Natasha's personalized protocols, I'm back in the gym and squatting to depth pain-free, and most importantly, with the knowledge of how to not get back to that point again!Additionally, since I've been being seen by Natasha, I have had ongoing shoulder issues. We were able to explore every non-invasive option possible to try and get me back to my best self. Although at the end of the day I found out I needed a debridement to clean out debris that was attributing to my pain, Natasha was there the week after surgery to again set up a personalized protocol for getting me back to being pain-free. I have no doubt that this goal will be obtained, and I actually look forward to putting in the work!Natasha is a great physical therapist, and a great friend! And you will see that she only surrounds herself with people that share her same energy. I've never worked with Natasha's associate, Greg, yet every time I see him he knows me by name and references short conversations we've had at previous visits. Their assistants, Mackenzie and TQ, are no different!Lastly, Athletic Edge has an awesome insurance team, which has been beyond helpful ensuring I get reimbursed for my visits, as I am active duty military and Natasha is out-of-network. For any of my military friends, just get a referral from your primary care manager to be seen out-of-network, and the Athletic Edge insurance team will do the rest! Less

I love Dr Natasha and Mackenzie. I’ve been coming for a little over a year and have had such a great experience, Dr. Natasha is fixing my plethora of ailments like whack a mole!! Highly suggest. Less

I brought my 14 year old to Athletic Edge to rehabilitate from a volleyball overuse injury to his knee. From our first assessment with Greg, I was impressed with his thoughtful approach and deep knowledge.He went beyond the obvious pain and helped Andrew understand how the muscles in his back and overall flexibility was contributing to the knee pain. With a mix of hands on manipulation plus targeted exercises that focused on strength and mobility, he helped Andrew understand how to condition his body to eliminate the pain and improve his overall game.Greg had a great rapport with my son and went above-and-beyond to create exercise routines that he could do at school.After ~10 sessions, my son is pain free and able to play all the volleyball that he wants. Thanks Greg!!!!I would go back to Athletic Edge and Greg in a heartbeat for any injuries or strengthening needs. Highly recommend. Less

I have been going to Natasha for a few months now and have shown amazing progress! Everyone who works here is amazing and are all more than willing to help in any way they can!! Less
