Physical therapy treatment table in SB Physio clinic

SB Physio has proudly served the greater Santa Barbara area since February 2015. After earning his Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) from the University of Southern California, founder Art Van Leuven returned to his Santa Barbara roots to open a clinic dedicated to delivering personal, high-quality care to the local community.

At SB Physio, we are committed to creating the ideal patient experience by delivering high-quality, individualized, and accessible physical therapy. Our mission is to help individuals reduce pain, restore function, and return to the activities they love, so they can live fully and without limitation.

We foster a welcoming, community-centered environment that prioritizes one-on-one care. Our collaborative team designs personalized therapy and exercise programs tailored to each patient’s unique needs. With every session, our therapists strive to live out SB Physio’s core values:

Heal. Restore. Live.

Best PT experience I have ever had. After years of problems with my neck - chronic pain and headaches - I have a new life. Thanks SB Physio!
