About Me

Kevin Hartsough studied Kinesiology with an emphasis in Pre-Physical Therapy at Whittier College and then earned his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Mount Saint Mary’s University in Los Angeles. He started his career working in three outpatient orthopedic clinics in Long Beach, Newport Beach and Irvine and a home health company in the OC area. There he treated a diverse population ranging from high school and college athletes, post-surgical, general orthopedic, post-stroke and Parkinson’s. His treatment philosophy involves a whole body approach to help create an environment for healing. He is passionate about optimizing human movement to promote a lifestyle for his clients to pursue their goals and desires.

Kevin achieved his Certification in Functional Manual Therapy (CFMT) with honors (>90% cumulative score) through the Institute of Physical Art (IPA) in August 2023. He immediately transitioned into the Functional Manual Therapy Fellowship Program offered through IPA Physio Orange County. His practice is centered around injury/disease prevention, optimizing lifestyle factors, and promoting a mindset of thriving throughout one’s lifespan.
