🛑 The biggest mistake people make with rotator cuff pain? Resting and waiting it out.

In this video, Dr. Jason explains why simply “resting” your shoulder often makes rotator cuff issues worse — leading to more stiffness, weakness, and long-term pain instead of healing.

If your shoulder pain hasn’t gone away on its own, it’s time to understand why and what actually helps. That’s exactly what we’ll cover at our upcoming Shoulder Pain Workshop (Rotator Cuff Focus).

📅 Wednesday, January 24th
⏰ 10:00–11:30 AM
📍 Sports Performance Chula Vista

👉 Learn how to move safely, strengthen properly, and avoid unnecessary surgery. Spots are limited — register now.

Shoulder pain after 50 isn’t random ❌

Most rotator cuff pain develops over time due to tendon wear, stiffness, posture changes, and muscle imbalances not a single injury. When these issues aren’t addressed, pain and loss of mobility slowly worsen.

You’ll learn what’s causing your shoulder pain, why it’s happening, and what your next steps should be to find long-term relief without rushing into surgery.

⏰ 10am - 11:30am
📍 Sports Performance Chula Vista

Our Story

Established in 2014, Sports Performance Physical Therapy was founded by Dr. Chris Garcia - one of San Diego's leading Physical Therapy specialists, former therapist to professional athletes for the United States Olympic Committee and NFL combine training program, and a nationally recognized public speaker. Dr. Chris has been helping people just like you for years get back to exercising and doing the things they love so they can live an active and healthy lifestyle. After years of traveling around the world to care for professional athletes, Dr. Chris founded Sports Performance Physical Therapy to bring this vast experience and knowledge back to his local San Diego community. Born and raised in San Ysidro, a suburb of San Diego, Chris came from humble beginnings and wanted to contribute to the south bay community. We believe people should have easy access to world-class care to help them stay healthy, active and fit.

We are a physical therapy clinic in Chula Vista, CA that specializes in helping people just like you relieve pain, prevent injury and improve performance so they can live healthy and active lives. Whether you're looking for a specialist who understands rest is not the solution, you've been let down by other facilities through your insurance, or you're frustrated with pain limiting your exercise routine, Sports Performance is the BEST option for you! At Sports Performance Physical Therapy, we love to help teenagers and people in their 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's and above, get back to living the life they deserve. Which means a life free from painkillers, where you don't have to worry about bothering the doctor, and dangerous surgeries. We get you back to doing and enjoying all the things you love, without the fear of pain holding you back.
