  • In no time I was able to bear weight without difficulty.

    I was suffering from severe foot pain after 2 days of walking around Disneyland. I received low-level laser therapy (cold laser therapy) and in no time I was able to bear weight without difficulty. I was even able to return to wearing heels and hiking! Thank you!

  • I feel very confident and comfortable to offer my opinion that Julie Moon runs an excellent cardiac rehab program!

    I am a recent “Graduate”, I am a retired R.N.C., and have attended, (in the past) an alternate cardiac rehab program. I feel very confident and comfortable to offer my opinion that Julie Moon runs an excellent cardiac rehab program! She and her staff are pleasant and knowledgeable, monitor the workouts closely, maintain records, and report regularly to the referring physician. I now feel comfortable and reassured as to my limits and potential – I also now understand the “Power of Breathing” and the benefits of stretching. Thank you!

  • They help me feel better and help me deal with the stresses put on my body by pregnancy.

    I came to Julie with pain in my right and left hip joint. I was having pain when walking, standing, and sleeping. After several sessions of manipulation and stretching the pain was much less. They help me feel better and help me deal with the stresses put on my body by pregnancy. I will continue to stretch and do the exercises as long as I can for the rest of my pregnancy because I believe it will make it easier for me and I will feel better.

  • The aquatherapy was amazing – it took the pressure off my spine and allowed me to move with significantly less pain.

    I came to Moon Therapy after herniating a disk in my lower back while pregnant. I was unable to sit, stand, or walk for nearly 3 weeks. The aquatherapy was amazing – it took the pressure off my spine and allowed me to move with significantly less pain. I consider myself fully recovered less than 2 month since the injury. Thanks for everything!

  • I'm really glad I came here!

    Before coming to Moon Physical Therapy, my feet would always hurt. I used to hate walking for long periods of time and not being able to participate in P.E. I was diagnosed with severe flat feet and Achilles tendonitis. Dr. Tsuchiya referred me to Moon PT for 8 sessions in the pool. I’m really glad I came here!

  • I strongly and unequivocally recommend Julie Moon & her staff.

    When I first came to Moon Physical Therapy I had 3 bulging disks, one which was herniated, a pinched nerve (c5-c6). They worked closely with my doctors and my neck pain was effectively treated, requiring no additional procedures. I am happy to say I am well and I believe it’s thanks to her patience and treatment. I strongly and unequivocally recommend Julie Moon & her staff.

  • The benefits I got were better muscle tone, my back feels stronger and I also lost 10 pounds.

    I injured my lower back and was sent to Moon Physical Therapy. The treatment that I received from Julie and her staff was great. As my pain decreased, they added more and more exercises. After a few months with no pain, they had me doing work conditioning and strength training. It was hard work but it was well worth it. The benefits I got were better muscle tone, my back feels stronger and I also lost 10 pounds.

  • I am gradually returning to my active lifestyle thanks to Julie.

    I suffered a knee injury at work which left me with minimal range of motion, locking of the joint, and pain. When my doctor referred me to PT, I did some research and discovered Moon Therapy offered therapy in a heated pool. I began treatments in the water. As my range of motion, stability, and strength continued to improve, I was finally able to move to land therapy. I am gradually returning to my active lifestyle thanks to Julie, her helpful staff, and combination of treatments.

    Terry had been suffering from constant crushing, stabbing and dull pain at the right region of her face, neck pain and headaches. After her 3rd treatment, consisting of low level light therapy to the face and head, she states that she was pain free for the first time since 2013.

  • I was able to return to my normal activities.

    For 4 months I was miserable with dizziness and had difficulty caring for my child. I was pretty hopeless when I came to your facility. I was treated with manual therapy and educated on land-based stretches and self-mobilization techniques for the home. After the second visit, I requested to be discharged from therapy because my symptoms resolved and I was able to return to my normal activities.

  • My pain is totally gone

    I would like to say how happy I am able to write this “success story” considering my long history of lower back problems that I have suffered through for approx. 26 years. After 6 weeks (12 sessions) of both water and land therapy, my pain is totally gone. A side benefit as a result of therapy was also 11 lbs. of weight loss.

  • Walking and standing became easier and I was able to return to baking again!

    I have a history of Osteoarthritis in my knees with frequent falling, pain, limited range of motion, poor balance and numbness in my feet. After 8 treatment sessions of aquatic therapy I improved 80%.  Walking and standing became easier and I was able to return to baking again!

  • After my first session, I knew Moon PT was the place for me.

    I had gone to another PT and was not impressed. After my first session, I knew Moon PT was the place for me. I came to PT with shoulder pain that felt like I was under a heating lamp daily. Julie’s staff was so welcoming, observant, and knowledgeable. As soon as I started my first session, I knew Julie and her staff love what they do. They are always pleasant and they are always watching to make sure the exercises are done correctly. I’ve learned a lot from my time at Moon PT. I’m actually sad that my sessions are over, but that just means that PT was a success.

  • I feel I’ve gained 90% of my full movement range.

    Julie and her staff was extremely helpful in diagnosing my shoulder issue, prescribing exercises, and monitoring my progression. At the end of my sessions, I feel I’ve gained 90% of my full movement range. With continued home exercises, I’m hoping for 100% recovery. I’m completely satisfied with Moon Physical Therapy. Thank you.

  • I am now pain free and I have unrestricted mobility - what a relief!

    I was experiencing extreme pain in my right hip and lower back that was preventing me from doing even basic movements at home much less going out. Other treatments failed to correct the problem. Once I began treatment at Moon Physical Therapy, I experienced an improvement in mobility and reduced pain almost immediately. I am now pain free and I have unrestricted mobility – what a relief!

  • My heartfelt appreciation goes to Julie and her cheerful staff.

    The healing process began when I first met Julie Moon. I felt “hope” in her deep concern for my knee problem. I can say it is with comfort to know, through consistent exercise, instructed at Moon Physical Therapy, I can resume my favorite pastime – walking. I have renewed my commitment to continue with my exercise for better health and for enjoyment of life. My heartfelt appreciation goes to Julie and her cheerful staff.

  • You and your staff are awesome and made healing and learning enjoyable.

    I had radiating pain down my right leg. The story is simple…I was broken, I came in, and you fixed me. You and your staff are awesome and made healing and learning enjoyable.

  • The work that Julie and her staff did for me is immeasurable.

     I had a right hip replacement at Queen’s Hospital. After time, my hip and thigh would hurt and I was barely able to walk. Julie Moon and her staff worked on me and together with many exercises, I found some relief after six weeks. I went back for another six weeks and now I am able to walk with no pain. The work that Julie and her staff did for me is immeasurable. If you have physical pains, I recommend going to Moon Physical Therapy for treatment without any reservation.

  • Moon Physical Therapy helps me achieve my goals!

    7 year old Kysen came to our clinic with back pain that had developed while wrestling. With our land-based exercises and aquatic program in the Hydroworx 350, we were able to get him back in the game faster than ever. He says, “Moon Physical Therapy helps me achieve my goals!”

  • I feel the difference. A big Mahalo to everyone at Moon PT.

    When I started PT, I was in constant pain in both hands and neck. After stretching and exercise, the pain in my hands was alleviated and I was able to return to work. Not being a limber person, my progress didn’t and still doesn’t seem significant to anyone but me, but I feel the difference. A big Mahalo to everyone at Moon PT.

  • A one to one program with a combination of land and water therapy!

    Curled over and barely walking, a visit to my doctor was diagnosed as a “pinched” nerve. The pain in my legs and lower back was a “10”. Help came quickly with PT by Julie Moon and staff. By the third week, pain had subsided to almost nothing due to stretching, strengthening exercise with someone there to help, teach, and encourage me every step of the way. A one to one program with a combination of land and water therapy. It’s not a cure, but I have learned to stretch and exercise properly so as not to feel pain again. I can honestly say that after 6 weeks, I can sit, stand, and walk tall. Thanks to the wonderful team who treats you like family.

  • Learned how to exercise and work out to strengthen my heart.

    Had a heart attack and needed cardio rehab. Learned how to exercise and work out to strengthen my heart. Learned how to measure my pulse when I exercise. Very informative and gained a lot of knowledge to keep healthy and hopefully prevent myself of a future heart attack. Mahalo for your help.

  • Come here to get the personal care and experience that you deserve.

    Compared to another PT I was going to before, I was blown away by this place!

    Julie and her entire staff are awesome therapists who are genuine people with a genuine concern for you and your wellbeing. This team is always professional and welcoming. Julie also has a real knack for seeing concerns that might slip right by other therapists. The level of detail and care you receive here is truly unmatched. These people are really here to help you get better.

    Don’t waste your time anywhere else, come here to get the personal care and experience that you deserve.

  • Great for Rehabilitation!

    Besides the location is very convenient for me, this place is great for rehabilitation. The P.T.’s and Assistants there are great to work with. I believe each one has worked with me in some way including the owner Julie Moon.

    What makes this rehab work is the fun conversations with each therapist, so the time passes fast. It is also the individual attention you get every time, unlike some other places I’ve been. From day 1 I’ve seen progress in getting me back to normal use of my shoulder.

    I highly recommend going to Moon Therapy in Mililani.

  • After several weeks, my range of motion for both my arms and neck increased!

    I had pain and numbness in my arm for several months before beginning physical therapy. Julie and her staff quickly recognized my issues and prescribed a program of several exercises to strengthen my neck and back while improving my posture. After several weeks, not only was my arm better, but my range of motion for both arms and my neck increased. I hadn’t realized how much the muscle tension I carried as a “normal” amount was limiting my mobility. The increased body awareness from the coaching was invaluable and will definitely help me prevent future issues. Thank you to everyone at Moon Physical Therapy for the care and expertise!

  • Hydroworx therapy was very easy/comfortable to work through!

    Awesome rehab center! Very professional and personal, Julie Moon PT & Ohana. I had a great experience through my recovery. Hydroworx therapy was very easy/comfortable to work through.

Julie the words that you’ve shared with me “Listen To Your Body” I’ll remember those words always, thank you aloha. Terence

  • The pain reduced so drastically that I graduated early :)

    Extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff! Learned so much in only 4 sessions instead of 6 for my elbow pain from sports. The pain reduced so drastically that I graduated early 🙂 As long as I continue the pt that I learned from Moon PT, I am confident that this pain will be a thing of the past.

  • It's not an assembly line of patients. They took their time with me and others!

    I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience with the team at Moon Physical Therapy. I appreciate that it is not an assembly line of patients and they take their time with me and others. The level of care provided to me, and that I have observed provided to others, is truly a credit to the staff. I certainly recommend their services for any physical therapy needs they cover. I have done physical therapy for many years, in many environments and, these folks earned the five stars, they were not given.

  • When I was ready to give up, everyone at Moon PT was there for me.

    I just want to thank everyone at Moon Physical Therapy located 320 Ward Ave, Honolulu, HI 96814, for helping me through these months of painful physical therapy!

    The staff and therapist go above and beyond and are so caring and supportive. My back injury has been tremendous stress both physical and emotional. It has been a rollercoaster of good and bad days. When I have been ready to give up everyone has been there for me. Truly amazing! With pain levels of the norm being 6-7 on good days to 8-10 on my worse days. They help me lower the pain to a tolerable level. I had to start with water therapy, which is amazing! I am now doing land-based and water therapy in the Hydroworx 350.

    If you are in need of therapy in my opinion there is NO other place I would recommend. (I have been to others so I can say this ) Check out their web page and see how many amazing treatments they offer and other locations (yes they have more than one location).

    Worried about COVID-19, they have a strict policy of cleanliness and checking your temp upon check-in. Everyone has to wear a mask.

    Thank you and your staff
