Doctor of Physical Therapy

About

Built by an athlete. For athletes.

I am Dr. Eric Busi, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and a tennis competitor and coach. The sport has never left me, and it is exactly why I understand what your body needs at a level most clinicians simply do not.

I built Only Way Physical Therapy & Performance because I was tired of watching talented, motivated people cycle through mediocre care. You invest in the best in every other area of your life. Your body deserves the same.

How it works

Simple. Clear. Results first.

01

We listen to your story

A real conversation about your history, your pain, and your goals. Your context shapes everything that follows.

02

Full-body assessment

We look at your whole body, not just the site of pain, to uncover how everything is connected.

03

Identify the root cause

Advanced movement analysis pinpoints the true source of your discomfort, not just the symptom.

04

Your customized plan

A personalized roadmap from where you are today to your goal, with clear milestones and a timeline you can trust.

05

Optimize your movement

Manual therapy, targeted strengthening, and movement retraining, tailored to your sport and your body.

06

Return to what you love

Back to your sport and your life, stronger than before, with the tools to stay there.

The facility

Where you'll train.

Your sessions happen in a private, fully-equipped performance studio — a Force rack and functional trainer, free weights, cardio, and recovery tools, with dedicated treatment space. Everything needed to take you from rehab all the way back to full performance, one athlete at a time.

Ready to move without limits?

Fifteen minutes, no obligation. Tell me what is going on and I will tell you honestly whether I can help.

No referral needed

Direct access in California.

Since 2014, California law (AB 1000) lets you see a licensed physical therapist directly, with no referral or prescription from a physician. I can evaluate and treat you for up to 45 calendar days or 12 visits, whichever comes first.

In plain terms: if your back, knee, or shoulder is telling you something is wrong, you can book with me this week. No waiting weeks for a doctor's appointment just to get permission to start.

If your care needs to run longer, I coordinate a plan of care with your physician so nothing slows down. And if anything in your evaluation points to a problem outside physical therapy, I will refer you to the right specialist.
