Our Equipment

True Stretch

The True Stretch is the easiest and most effective tool to stretch and mobilize the body in all three planes of motion. It is ideal for restoring and maintaining the 3-D muscle and joint mobility and stability that is essential for all upright function. The True Stretch provides a dedicated, self-contained stretching area that allows users of all ages and body types a safe platform for comprehensive stretching to increase flexibility and reduce the risk of injury. The True Stretch eliminates the need for floor-based stretching or leaning uncomfortably over other equipment.

What our patients have to say

Frederic BrostFrederic Brost ★★★★★ I came in with an incapacitating lower back muscle pain, not being able to stand or walk for more than 30 or 45 seconds. A short few weeks later (with a lot of helpful exercises from Eric), I am totally pain free. Kind of incredible !!Neal LeavittNeal Leavitt ★★★★★ I've been working with Eric for almost a year now and hands down he is the best physical therapist I've ever had. The PT regimen for my shoulder and knee, amongst other body parts, that he has rolled out for me has resulted in greatly enhanced mobility and increased strength, which has exceeded my expectations. I'm still a work in progress but am confident that I'll achieve the goals that Eric initially outlined for me when we started our collaboration!Laura McCulloughLaura McCullough ★★★★★ I highly recommend Dr Eric Schulte and Longevity!I have osteoarthritis and require a lot of physical therapy for several different joints. I have had good experiences with therapists in the past however they focused on the affected area rather than using the whole body approach. With Eric I have learned that everything is connected and strengthening the muscles around the joint and beyond stabilizes and supports it. It's the best remedy for relieving pain. He includes breathing and core techniques as well so after my appointments my body and mind feel so much better. I am so grateful for finding Longevity PT and Eric Schulte!Brett livingstonBrett livingston ★★★★★ I had been battling knee pain for what felt like ages, and it was truly starting to take a toll on my daily life. When doctors diagnosed me with arthritis in both knees and suggested I might just have to live with it, I felt defeated. Walking became a chore, and I found myself moving like someone much older than my years. Despite trying various treatments, including multiple Cortisone shots followed by hyaluronic injections, the relief was only temporary.Then, I discovered Longevity Physical Therapy in Carlsbad and met Doctor Eric Schulte. From the moment I walked in, I knew this was different. Dr. Schulte didn't just treat my symptoms; he took the time to understand my unique situation. He crafted a personalized regimen of exercises, stretches, and targeted release points that were tailored specifically to me.The results? Nothing short of amazing. After years of enduring the pain, I can proudly say it's completely gone. What's more incredible is that it wasn't some complicated, convoluted routine that did the trick. Dr. Schulte's approach introduced me to simple yet effective exercises that I had never encountered before.Now, I'm living a life free from knee pain and free from the need for shots or medication. If you're tired of the cycle of treatments and want to reclaim your youthfulness, I wholeheartedly recommend Doctor Eric Schulte and the incredible team at Longevity Physical Therapy. Their dedication, expertise, and personalized care truly make all the difference.Lillian PantovichLillian Pantovich ★★★★★ Very professional and knowledgeable Physical Therapists. With their help I accomplished goals that I didn't think it was possible. Thank you for your help and support. I am very grateful to Eric who is my hero.Lynne JosephLynne Joseph ★★★★★ I have worked with Kristin and Eric at San Marcus Longevity. They are both excellent therapists. They have helped me through a knee replacement, two shoulder replacements, and severe arthritis in my feet. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and professional.Cecilia MaislinCecilia Maislin ★★★★★ Great pt session with CaseyEric SwansonEric Swanson ★★★★★ Rachel and Eric at Longevity PT are super knowledgeable, professional and personable. I highly recommend Longevity PT!James MillerJames Miller ★★★★★ Many thanks to the Longevity Physical Therapy team, especially Kristen Lopez, whose excellent rehabilitation of an injured knee enabled me return to normal walking. Additionally and amazingly, they successfully prepared me for a three week physically challenging trip to the southern Patagonia area. Kristen’s focused therapies for flexibility, strength and balance overcame the injury pain and my lack of exercise for five months. I now enjoy normal mobility and am returning to exercise. In addition to getting me back to functional mobility, Kristen developed custom exercises specifically to strengthen my knee for the activities I would encounter on my trip. I enjoyed my trip’s demanding terrain without thinking about my knee. I simply can’t say enough positive things about Longevity.Jennifer CampbellJennifer Campbell ★★★★★ Kristen Lopez, DPT, did a wonderful job of treating both my knee replacements and my frozen shoulder. In each case, she evaluated my problem and created a treatment plan. She did an excellent job in explaining the purpose of each exercise and in giving me follow-up exercised to perform at home. I highly recommend Longevity Physical Therapy in San Marcos and Bressi Ranch.Lisa DarrLisa Darr ★★★★★ I've mostly worked with Kristen after my knee replacement. I had started my out patient PT elsewhere, but didn't feel I was getting individualized treatment or any real plan. At Longevity there is constant interaction and monitoring of my progress as well as input on how to modify exercises to improve overall muscle balance and quality of life. They have me booked out for multiple visits and I really value the consideration and care that I want to get back to a very physical lifestyle. These folks are truly awesome.J TJ T ★★★★★ I've had a severe ankle injury for a year and a half now. Previous previous PT was too agressive and caused me pain. Then I went to another place that had a pool and it was great but only improved to a point, still not normal. I came to Longevity in San Marcos and had the good fortune to receive treatment from Eric. He customized my treatment and I was amazed at the progress after only 2 visits. When I came I was faced with possible surgery and now I'm encouraged that I may make a full recovery without surgery. After having been to other places that were filthy, this new, clean facility is contemporary and inviting. Previously, I had a therapist that would give me only 10-15 minutes of attention over an hour and a half, and sometimes gave me a new exercise and walked away without watching to see if I was doing it correctly (he had to handle the seven other patients he was handling at the same time). At Longevity, Eric is fully present and focused on my needs for the whole visit, always starting on time and never cutting the visit short. When an appointment had to be cancelled, he called to make sure I was still making progress. He's a tremendous asset to the organization.Joe BaikJoe Baik ★★★★★ Highly recommend Longevity! I can’t say enough how great this place is and I’m on the road to recovery! Unlike a lot of PT places that I’ve contacted, Longevity contacted me back almost immediately. There are some places that don’t even call/email you back. From the front desk (Amanda), to my PTs Eric, Rachel and Kristen, they are not only phenomenal in what they do but they are also great people! My dislocated knee is now almost 100% recovered thanks to them after only about 2 months. If you’re in the area looking for the best physical therapy, look here first!Pat BoylePat Boyle ★★★★★ Written by Roberta Boyle (patient):Eric Schulte deserves more than a 5 star rating !! I first saw Eric in February of 2022 for a rotator cuff issue. Eric was outstanding in diagnosing the primary and secondary impairments which most likely contributed to the increased demand on my rotator cuff. He provided me with a hard copy of his "Initial Exam" and "Plan of Care" which fully explained to me what we were dealing with and what we were going to do to treat it. I wanted to stay with Eric, but his facility was quite a distance from my house.So I checked out 2 other facilities just minutes from my house. Neither of these facilities could even come close to providing the excellence and dedication that Eric and Longevity could. This is because Longevity allows their Physical Therapists to spend an entire 40 uninterrupted minutes with each patient.Longevity employs many highly qualified PTs which are able to design the program to the patient. Other facilities just run patients thru a "one size fits all" exercise protocol utilizing assistants - not PTs. Longevity provides their patients with email access to "their PT" so that if their patients have questions, they can communicate between appointments.Finally, one year later in February of 2023, I was back at Longevity with Eric Schulte following surgery on the rotator cuff. I am not exaggerating when I say that the surgery would not have produced such an outstanding result if not for Eric Schulte's expertise and dedication. A surgeon can only do what a surgeon does. The success of the surgery depends on the rehabilitation process that follows. My rehabilitation experience was top notch thanks to Eric and Longevity !!Kyle GoozeKyle Gooze ★★★★★ Fixed me right up ! Highly recommend this placeHossein EkhlassiHossein Ekhlassi ★★★★★ I can write a book here! I had pain for years and tried 5 different facilities till I found this jewel. If they can’t fix you nobody else can. Facility is gorgeous, staff are all top notch, very professional and friendly, and honestly care to get you going again.Jo ElsnerJo Elsner ★★★★★ I totally give this PT facility a 10+. Eric is the best. I have had 2 sessions with him and have gotten more positive results than in the 8-9 months at the other facility I was going to. This facility is very professional and well educated in what they do. If you’re looking for physical therapy please give them a try you won’t be disappointed.John AndersonJohn Anderson ★★★★★ John and Marie had the pleasure to meet and work with Eric several years ago for issues of balance, age and knees. Now he is helping me with problems due to Parkinson’s disease and John because of a fall. Eric always greets us with a big smile. He is very patient, easy to talk to, and has a great knowledge of how to help treat our problems. He tries to vary the exercises as much as possible. He is a great therapist, always in a good mood. He sends us home with pictures to help us do our exercises at home. We recommend him higly to anyone needing physical therapy.Cindi GCindi G ★★★★★ Very clean state of the art physical therapy office. Eric provided me with an effective home routine to strengthen and improve knee mobility to combat osteoarthritis. Thanks to Longevity PT, I’m still able to hike and maintain an active lifestyle. Highly recommend this office and it’s friendly and professional staff.Jody SaltzmanJody Saltzman ★★★★★ Eric is the best PT I've ever worked with...and I've worked with MANY of them. He really listens, tailors the exercises to the individual, and even does great manual releases. THANK YOU, Eric!!Pam SPam S ★★★★★ I have worked with Kristen Lopez, DPT, throughout my lengthy, challenging rehab from total knee replacement. I could not imagine having a more knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective guide. The Longevity treatment model, which has the patient working with the physical therapist for the entire visit, is superior. Kristen is witty and fun; she excels at hands-on manipulation and assessed my form during every exercise. Her laser focus kept me motivated to do my best and ensured that my efforts were beneficial. Kristen (and Longevity) will be my lifelong resource.Jill AngelesJill Angeles ★★★★★ Came in for back pain which was relieved quickly with the exercises and “homework” I was given. Great location and easy to get to! Clean facility! Great staff and therapist! Rachel was great!Jane DaviesJane Davies ★★★★★ I have worked with Rachel Oakley over the course of nine months on a variety of issues including skeletal muscular weakness, rehab after foot surgery and long standing balance issues. She has a broad understanding of these conditions and was able to provide a variety of exercises adapted to my needs. She helped organize a variety of activities that I can do at the gym. Rachel is very upbeat and encouraging. She communicates very clearly and is willing to go over the steps in an exercise so that it is understood. When asked to explain the why behind an ache or exercise, she clearly explains it. Rachel is bright, enthusiastic, patient, and empathetic. This was always a positive experience.Chad McLainChad McLain ★★★★★ Kind, conscientious, and knowledgeable staff who consistently listened to me and adapted to my goals. Big thanks to Kristen and Rachel for getting my confidence and strength back after three ACL surgeries. The bright and open space is icing on the cake!Joelle RebmannJoelle Rebmann ★★★★★ I have been seeing Kristen. We’re probably over two months now. First off the facility is beautiful. I have been to the Bressi location as well as the new San Marcos location and both are very clean. Kept up very nice. All the equipment is new. Kristen is very easy to work with And has helped me tremendously with my lower back and hip issue. She is professional, yet makes me feel like she cares about me and my well-being. We had a goal of getting me back to being able to do yoga classes again. We do stretching and alignment and We also do a variety of strengthening exercises and then she gives me exercises to do at home as well. I am back to practicing yoga. I highly recommend Kristen and her staff.js_loader
