We provide quality, comprehensive treatment for patients who are injured or suffering from any type of movement or function disorder.
As a key member of today's dynamic health care team, we prescribe a goal-oriented program of evaluation, treatment, and prevention for our patient's specific needs.
Conditions we treat include but are not limited to:
We work with employers and employees toward preventing work-related injuries, helping to save valuable dollars, lost time, and a lot of pain for both.
Our therapists utilize some of the top testing programs available today, to evaluate potential employees’ physical capabilities of doing their jobs as well as assess ergonomics and provide functional capacity evaluations (FCEs) using the renowned programs including the WorkSTEPS ® Program.
Work hardening, Work Capacity Testing & WorkSTEPS are designed to provide employers with an objective employment testing program that reduces work-place injury incidence and injury costs reduces lost time, and creates accountability for employees and the providers who treat them.
We focus on an active injury prevention approach to helping you:
• We will educate your employees on how to maintain safe work habits. • We will evaluate employees and their environments to ensure safety.
If you’re an employer or any employee who is concerned about work injury please ask any member of our team about our programs that can make a difference for your company’s bottom line.
We provide quality, comprehensive injury plans for every athlete to prevent injuries or suffering from any type of movement or function disorder.
Our movement specialists identify if the way your body moves or your strength levels are contributing to pain, putting you at an increased risk for suffering a shoulder injury, running injury or even a torn ACL that can hold you back from your highest level of athletic performance.
Conditions we treat include but are not limited to:
ACL-Tear Prevention
Shoulder Injury
Runner's Injury
Runner's Injury Prevention:
When it comes to running, that starts with a running analysis.
Our advanced technology gives incredible insight into how your body runs. We measure every movement your lower body makes when running, from your ankle all the way up to your hip.
This allows us to break down every aspect of your technique to determine what is holding you back from being your best, fastest, and most pain-free competitor. After that, we prescribe exercises to strengthen your running.
The end result is you become a faster, safer runner, prolonging your running career and getting you better results along the way.
Whether you’re a cross country athlete, an adult competitive runner, or a weekend warrior, if you want to run faster or with less pain, you are in the right place.
Shoulder Injury Prevention:
If you’re an overhead athlete who has ever worried about a shoulder injury like a rotator cuff or labrum tear, a Tommy John injury (which is almost always caused by a bad shoulder), or nerve damage like thoracic outlet syndrome that causes numbness and tingling pain down your arm and hand, and you want to do everything you can to make sure you have a long, injury-free career, you are in the right place.
Physical therapists are movement specialists that have doctorate-level training in assessing, analyzing, and treating movement disorders using the power of your own body.
By knowing exactly what to look for, and how to fix the problems found, pain and injury can be avoided altogether.
ACL Tear Prevention:
There are four key predictors for ACL-tears: strength and power, strength symmetry, and body control.
Strength and power are critical for both athletic performance and injury prevention.
Strength and power symmetry refers to how similar your strength and power levels are between legs. Nobody is 100% the same on both sides, but if one of your legs is significantly stronger or more powerful than the other, your body compensates in ways that put you at increased risk for getting hurt.
Body control is the most well known of these risk factors. Knees that cave in when you run, jump, and make cuts increase the likelihood of injury.
Testing each of these factors gives you a clear idea of your strengths and weaknesses and highlights exactly what you need to work on to remove as much ACL-tear risk as possible.
If you want to know the truth about how your body works, and if you want to prevent a devastating, life-changing injury, this ACL-tear risk assessment is for you.
Falls and fear of falling in our senior population are recognized public health crises.
According to the CDC, falls are the leading cause of injury-related deaths in older adults by a wide margin. Each year, more than two million seniors experience a fall severe enough to necessitate emergency medical treatment. This number along with the associated personal and societal costs of falling is expected to rise as our population ages. Despite these grim statistics, many falls are preventable with professional interventions that address the causes of falling in older adults.
Our expert clinicians are trained in evidence-based interventions that are proven by controlled clinical trials to effectively reduce the number of falls in older adults.
There are other factors that also contribute to falls. Neurological conditions such as Parkinson's Disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis, brain injury, vestibular disorders, and neuropathy also increase fall risk. Our therapy team is well equipped to address the problems of falling and the fear of falling in individuals living with these conditions.
I went here for PT due to a problem knee. The therapist did everything to help me ease pain and regain movement, but eventually I required total knee replacement to remedy the joint. I came here for post surgical PT and the results were fantastic.
The staff are very pleasant, thoughtful and considerate. They helped me with scheduling conflicts, as well as billing problems. The therapists are educated, efficient, and very patient, explaining everything from the action inside the joint to the associated muscles, ligaments, tendons and bones that affect it.
I highly recommend them.

I love this place. I had painful recurrent issues and pain with one of my shoulders from an injury 20+years ago and they have helped so much. They have been able to diagnose the problem, and have put in place a regimen of easy exercises. They also have done great massages and manipulation on the shoulder to loosen stiff muscles and tendons. They have used cupping, ultrasound and electric pulse as well. They are all super professional, attentive and very friendly. Very happy to have been sent there by my doctor. They are also very diligent about keeping the place clean with Covid.

My post-surgery therapy on my left shoulder went exceedingly well, thanks to my wonderful therapist, Kevin. He is kind, understanding, and empathetic as well as totally knowledgeable about his field. The whole staff was great. I highly recommend Kevin and Silver Creek PT in Los Gatos.

My experience with Silver Creek Physical Therapy was great! I came in with an injury in my knee and over a course of time I was able to return to normal. Not only do the staff work with you during your session but also provide you with exercises which can be done at home. Kudos to Pham and Sam and other staff members who worked with me!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Silver Creek Physical Therapy LG , and my PT, Tony, in particular. I came in with a frozen shoulder with the prognosis that it would take about a year of PT to recover from the issue. I was in a great deal of pain and very limited in my movement. With the incredible guidance of Tony and his team, I was out of there in four and half months. What I appreciated most was that Tony made me part of the process, he talked me through everything, and he was my biggest cheerleader. I never thought I would actually look forward to physical therapy, but I did. I cannot thank the team at SCPT enough for getting me through my frozen shoulder issue! I would recommend them to everyone I know!

I would ask silver creek to give him a great raise Tony deserve a lot. And I want thank silver creek physical therapy to hire him. Tony is former vet Marine corp. in my eyes he is the best of all.
Thank you Tony(God) bless you.
Thank you
