Polly Badt, PT

History

I became a physical therapist in 1988. I worked for other therapists. Then I got the opportunity to open my own practice in Malibu. I was excited to be in control of how I could treat patients, spend the time and share my knowledge and expertise fully, not limited by a boss's schedule and limitations. So in 2007 I opened my practice in Malibu. Malibu people and doctors were very welcoming. Word of mouth is their best advertisement. Business has been great. I expanded to have 4 other therapist working along side me. Now I have what I call semi-retired, for I will never retire, I LOVE what I do helping people. So now I have moved my practice to Santa Monica, which is my home. With so many referrals from Santa Monica Doctors I am more available to more people, which sounds like a contradiction for being semi-reitred, but it just is.

Specialties

I treat people with many physical dysfunctions, disabiities, pain, after accidents, surgeries, treating every part (joint,muscle, fascia, tendon,ligament, neural structure) that may be causing you pain or inability to do what you need, want, love to do. I specialize in manual (hands on) therapy, incorporating many other different modalities. I aim to get you back independent and painfree with your life.
