Why Choose Concierge Physical Therapy in Montecito & Santa Barbara?
At SB Mindful Momentum, we prioritize quality care and early intervention because we understand that the duration and intensity of acute pain are critical in determining whether pain becomes chronic. Unlike insurance-based physical therapy clinics in Santa Barbara and Montecito with long wait times, we offer expert 90-minute evaluations and 60-minute follow-ups within a week of initial contact.

Testimonials
“I have endured chronic low back pain for over 30 years. During a particularly challenging flare-up, Dr. Shannon’s expertise was invaluable. Her unique combination of sensitivity, attentiveness to my mindset, and exceptional skill as a physical therapist provided relief beyond my expectations. Dr. Shannon’s forward-thinking approach truly sets her apart, and I highly recommend her services.”
“Shannon is an exceptional wellness and yoga coach! Her customized online sessions are tailored to my needs, filled with expert guidance, positivity, and encouragement. She adapts our sessions on the spot based on how I’m feeling that day. Thanks to Shannon, I’ve regained mobility, and I’m improving in strength, flexibility, and balance. My overall health and wellness have significantly improved!”
“I have had the privilege of taking private, online yoga sculpt sessions with Shannon and can’t recommend her highly enough. Before each session, Shannon asks pointed questions about muscle groups I want to target and addresses any issues I am experiencing that could impact the class. The result was a highly tailored and effective yoga experience - she really is the best! ”
“Although physical therapy for my ‘frozen shoulder’ was uncomfortable, I always looked forward to working with Shannon. Her empathy and encouragement made a significant difference. She guided me through the challenging moments, introducing varied stretching and exercise techniques to keep me motivated and on track. I wholeheartedly endorse her as a Physical Therapist. ”
“Shannon is incredibly holistic in her approach, taking into account the entirety of the individual. She skillfully addressed my concerns regarding movement and potential re-injury with a deep sense of understanding and care. Not only did she equip me with strategies to alleviate my persistent shoulder pain, but she also empowered me with daily techniques to effectively manage my anxiety. I wholeheartedly endorse her as a Physical Therapist without hesitation.”
“After 30 years of knee pain, I felt hopeless until I started working with Shannon. She pinpointed that my pain was caused by muscle imbalances, improper shoe wear, and underlying fear. Within just a week, I noticed a dramatic improvement. Shannon helped me regain control of my life without letting pain hold me back. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking relief and a better quality of life. ”
