Emily Moreno, PT, DPT, FAAOMPT
Founder, Stretch Goals Physical Therapy
My name is Dr. Emily Moreno, a concierge physical therapist based in the South Bay of Los Angeles, and the founder of Stretch Goals Physical Therapy. I specialize in helping millennial athletes, weekend warriors, and individuals with hypermobility take back control of their bodies and live pain-free, active lives, without being told to “just rest.”
I earned my Doctorate of Physical Therapy from George Washington University in 2017 in 2023, I completed a Fellowship in Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy (FAAOMPT), an advanced distinction held by fewer than 0.5% of physical therapists practicing in the United States.
I have been certified in the treatment of Fitness Athletes by the Institute of Clinical Excellence, and I create and present educational content for fellow therapists and medical professionals within a nationally recognized healthcare system. In 2026, I began actively pursuing certification as a Diplomate of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine.
Over the past 20 years of schooling and professional practice, I have discovered that my real passion is in helping others to understand and regain agency over how their body performs. In spite of what you may see on social media and the internet, our bodies are naturally capable of incredible things! But like all machines, they do need occasional tune-ups. Whether you’re dealing with tendinopathy, arthritis, or symptoms related to a hypermobility disorder, there ARE things you can do to feel better.
At Stretch Goals, my mission is simple: to empower you with clarity, confidence, and a plan that actually works for your unique body. Because your symptoms aren’t just in your head — and your best years are not behind you.
