JASON DUONG

Growing up in an immigrant household, the drive to excel was always there—but the roadmap wasn't. As a young athlete, I had the heart to compete at a high level, but I didn't know how to bridge the gap between 'participating' and 'performing.' It wasn’t until I took my development into my own hands during high school and college that I experienced the results firsthand.

Through trial and error and deep research into training, I discovered a level of athleticism that transformed my performance as a collegiate athlete. This discovery prompted a passion for pursuing an emphasis on strength and conditioning within physical therapy.

Today, as a sports physical therapist, my mission is to provide the education and empowerment I wish I’d had—helping athletes exceed their own expectations and return to their sport stronger than ever.

  • "Working with Jason has been absolutely life-changing.

    He didn’t just treat my symptoms; he found the root causes. He showed me exercises that targeted and strengthened muscles I didn’t even know I had. Thanks to him, my entire workout routine has a new, healthier direction, and I'm training (close to) pain-free. If you are an active person looking for a PT who truly understands movement and performance, go see Jason right away.”

    -Michael Akiva

  • "I am endlessly grateful for the role Jason has played in my recovery. I simply would not have gotten back to playing the sport I love without his care at every single step.

    If you’re looking for a physical therapist who combines elite level expertise, athlete focused training, creativity, and real human care, you won’t find anyone better than Jason Duong at Meraki Performance Therapy.”

    -Emma Leyden

  • "If you want someone who knows what they’re doing, listens, and genuinely cares about getting you back to your version of 100%, Jason is your guy.

    From day one, he brought a level of expertise and thoughtfulness that made me feel like I was in the best possible hands. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, but what really stood out was how patient and intentional he was with every step of the process—never rushing, always making sure I was progressing the right way.”

    -Galen Reeves-Darby

  • "I’m fully healed, stronger than before, and have no more pain or discomfort. 10/10 would recommend.

    I started working with Jason just two days after my first hip labral repair surgery. My ultimate goal after repairing both hips was to get back to snowboarding. I saw him twice a week where he gave tailored instruction, encouragement, and the perfect level of accountability. His program awarded me with steady progress the entire time I saw him.

    After about 7 months of being his patient, I am now fully back to snowboarding and I couldn’t be happier.”

    -Angela DiSalvo

  • "Thanks to Jason’s guidance, I’ve made more progress in a fraction of the time than I did previously, and I finally feel like I’m on the path back to full recovery.

    The treatment plan was incredibly detailed and clearly structured in phases, with specific goals for each stage. Every exercise had a purpose, and he made sure I understood how it contributed to rebuilding strength, stability, and confidence in my knee. He was constantly adjusting the program based on my progress—nothing ever felt cookie-cutter.”

    -Syed Ali

  • "Jason is an amazing PT, definitely recommend him for ACLs and athletes returning to sport!

    I really enjoyed working with Jason during my ACL rehab! His confidence and knowledge made the process, especially the early stages, a lot less overwhelming and scary. He went the extra mile to create a personalized workout plan for me that he would update as I continued to progress in my recovery.”

    -Julie Griesemer

  • "Would definitely recommend Jason to anyone who wants to get back to their sport.

    I had a wonderful experience working with him. I tore my ACL last year playing basketball, and he's been diligently helping me get back into playing my sports.”

    -Sieva Kozinsky

  • "I had such a great experience with Jason! He went above and beyond helping me return to soccer after ACL surgery.

    He really understood what I was going through and was able to adapt and tailor sessions based on how my knee was feeling. He helped me stay motivated and was constantly checking in on me to see how I was doing. Highly recommend for ACLs!!”

    -Allison Schachter

A STANDARD OF CARE FOCUSED ON YOU

The traditional insurance model is built for basic medical necessity, not high-performance return-to-sport. By operating as an out-of-network provider, we remove the third-party restrictions that dictate how, where, and for how long you can be treated.

60-Minute, 1-on-1 Sessions

You get a full hour of undivided attention from your physical therapist. No distractions, no being passed off to an assistant and no shared sessions.

Extensive, Individualized Programming

Your recovery doesn't just happen during your hour in person. Because we aren't tied down by insurance billing constraints, we provide comprehensive, custom programming for your independent training days. This individualized design ensures you are progressing every week towards to your goals.

Bridging the Gap to Performance

Insurance companies usually stop paying the moment you can handle daily tasks like walking or climbing stairs. But if your goal is sprinting, cutting, catching, throwing, and competing, you aren't ready yet. Our model prioritizes bridging the gap between foundational rehabilitation and returning to your activity & sports at a high-level with confidence.

CONTACT

No Doctor’s Referral Needed To Get Started

In California, you have Direct Access to physical therapy. This means you can come directly to us for an evaluation and begin treatment right away without waiting weeks to see a primary care physician (PCP) or specialist first. This allows us to address your injury immediately and get you moving toward your goals without unnecessary delays.

HOW IT WORKS

The First 12 Visits or 45 Days:

Under Direct Access, we can provide elite, 1-on-1 care for up to 12 visits or 45 calendar days (whichever comes first).

To Continue Beyond That:

If your plan requires care that extends past that initial window, California law requires a physician’s signature on your physical therapy plan of care to continue.

If we reach that point, don't worry—we will help coordinate that step. We can easily send our detailed evaluation and progress notes directly to your doctor to get the sign-off needed to keep your momentum going.
