Is Back Pain Holding You Back From the Life You Love?
You're an active person who refuses to let pain dictate your lifestyle. But standard treatment isn't working.
Your Golf Swing Suffers
Back pain limits your rotation, steals your power, and turns every round into a painful reminder that something needs to change.
Generic PT Falls Short
One-size-fits-all exercises and 15-minute sessions with assistants don't address your unique movement patterns or athletic goals.

What Our Patients Say
Dr. Joe was the best physical therapist I have had throughout my time weight training. I've had many therapists that were not capable of helping me get back to perform in gym without pain and the way he has helped me has been something I have never experienced before. He has shown me what I could be capable of with the right guidance and expertise. Furthermore, he spent a lot of time educating me on my body and why things were hurting the way they were. He is also a great person who cares about getting to know his patients as people. Highly recommend Dr. Joe and Kinetic Performance!

Rated 5.0 stars from 33 Google reviews
“As both a golfer and someone who values staying pain-free, I can't recommend Dr. Joe highly enough. His expertise as a physical therapist combined with Titleist Performance Institute certification makes every session feel tailored to my swing, my body, and my goals. After working with Dr. Joe, I've gained mobility, strength, and consistency on the course, and my elbow feels better than it has in years.“
— Chris Y.
“I am so grateful to Joe! I experienced severe back pain after giving birth to my son. The stretches and exercises that Joe taught me completely relieved all of my pain after a few sessions. Joe was extremely knowledgeable and professional—I had a fantastic experience!“
— Kathryn L.
“Joe has been great! He is a professional in sports recovery and performance. He helped me through some pain I had in my back and hips because of the way I was running and a postpartum condition. He was amazing doing my diagnosis and then treating me personally every step of the way. Now after 12 weeks, I'm about to run again half marathon, and an IM 70.3 sooner than expected!“
— Ana E.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers about back pain physical therapy near me in Sunrise and what to expect at Kinetic Performance PT.
1. Do I need a referral for physical therapy in Florida?
No, Florida has direct access laws that allow you to see a physical therapist without a physician referral. You can schedule your initial evaluation directly with us and begin treatment immediately. Dr. Ho will assess your condition and create a personalized treatment plan during your first visit.
2. What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please bring your insurance card, a valid ID, and wear comfortable athletic clothing that allows easy movement. If you have any recent imaging (MRI, X-rays) or medical records related to your back pain, bring those as well. We'll complete a comprehensive assessment during your first session.
3. How long are physical therapy sessions at Kinetic Performance?
Each session is a full one-on-one appointment with Dr. Joseph Ho, typically lasting 45-60 minutes. Unlike traditional clinics where you might see an assistant, you receive personalized attention from a Doctor of Physical Therapy for your entire visit, ensuring the highest quality care and faster results.
4. How is golf-specialized PT different from regular physical therapy?
Our TPI-certified approach analyzes how your body's physical limitations affect your golf swing and contribute to back pain. We assess hip mobility, thoracic spine rotation, core stability, and other golf-specific movement patterns that traditional PT might miss. Treatment addresses both pain relief and performance enhancement.
5. Do you accept insurance for back pain treatment?
We work with most major insurance plans and provide premium concierge care. Contact our office at (305) 317-4420 to verify your specific coverage. We also offer flexible payment options for those who prefer to self-pay or have out-of-network benefits.
6. How many sessions will I need for back pain relief?
Every patient is different, but many of our patients experience significant relief within 4-6 sessions. During your initial evaluation, Dr. Ho will provide a personalized treatment timeline based on your specific condition, goals, and response to therapy. Our focus is on lasting results, not just temporary relief.
