Aloha,
Kōkua is a Hawaiian word meaning "to help," but its deeper essence captures our philosophy perfectly — to give oneself to the greater good by kindly serving the community.
Born and rooted right here on Maui, our practice carries the true spirit of Kōkua, offering mobile physical therapy that addresses the root causes of your pain through our Kōkua Method.
What makes our approach different? While traditional clinics rush through 30-minute appointments with generic exercise programs, we provide personalized care as a Board Certified Clinical Specialist with advanced training in low back pain, functional movement, and custom orthotic fabrication. We've helped competitive athletes, watermen, working professionals, and countless Maui locals overcome pain when standard approaches failed.
We understand the frustration of treatments that don't deliver results. That's why we focus on precision diagnostics, clear explanations, and treatment plans tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're returning to the surf lineup, the trails of Īao Valley, or simply want to play with your grandkids without back pain, we blend clinical expertise with the spirit of Aloha, treating you as ʻOhana (family), not just another patient.

Working with Teddy was providence. He's a limitless supply of knowledge, compassion and laughs. He built a program that incorporates functional movement patterns to mobilize and stabilize. I had a nagging SI issue and he showed me the way forward. I'm forever grateful. If you're in pain and in need of a physio, or a trainer looking to stay pain-free or take it to the next level, you just found who you're looking for.View on Google
I'm so glad that I found Teddy. I can't recommend him enough. After 10+ years of struggling with persistent issues in my back, hips, and hamstrings he took the time to thoroughly assess my body and pinpoint the root causes of my issues. He then made an actionable plan for me, setting me on a path to proper healing. Thank you Teddy for your genuine care and compassion for helping people feel their best.View on Google
You won't find a more knowledgeable, caring, or considerate PT on the island. Teddy gives true one-on-one care, treating you like a person and not just a patient. As a lifelong athlete and paddler himself, he understands the sports world inside and out and brings that expertise to every session. Mahalo for everything, Teddy.View on Google
Teddy is an outstanding physical therapist. He's incredibly knowledgeable and super easy to be around. His background as an athlete gives him a deeper understanding of the body in motion. That combination of expertise and firsthand experience makes his care both super effective and personalized. Highly recommend.View on Google
Thankful for being able to work with Teddy. My son is a 14-year-old soccer player that has had some back and groin issues. Teddy was able to explain what was causing the issue and showed him how to fix it. Super grateful for the help.View on Google
