Optimize Your Movement.
Build a Resilient Body.
Live Longer.
Who We Are
PAYA Movement is a mobile, cash-based physical therapy practice serving Irvine and surrounding areas. We work with active adults, athletes, and anyone who wants to move better, feel stronger, and stay ahead of injury — not just recover from it.
Our philosophy is simple: the best time to work with a physical therapist is before pain stops you. We specialize in identifying and correcting movement system impairments — the hidden dysfunctions in how your body moves that quietly limit performance and set the stage for injury down the road. Every session is one-on-one, delivered wherever you train or live, and built entirely around you.
Whether you're 35 and want to stay athletic into your 60s, or 60 and refusing to slow down — this is where that starts.
Meet the Founder
Dr. Sami Saeidi is a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a focus on movement optimization, longevity, and performance. He specializes in Movement System Impairments (MSI) — identifying the subtle movement dysfunctions that limit how well and how long your body can perform. His clinical background spans orthopedic rehabilitation, strength-based mobility for aging adults, and injury prevention for athletes and active individuals.
As a Certified Exercise Expert for Aging Adults (CEEAA) and a competitive volleyball and tennis player himself, Dr. Sami brings both the science and the athlete's mindset to every session — understanding what it means to want to keep performing at a high level for years to come.
He earned his DPT from Washington University in St. Louis — the #1 ranked PT program in the country — where the emphasis on movement science and root-cause thinking shaped his whole approach to care.
Our Services
Wellness and Performance
Move better. Stay strong. Keep going.
You don't have to be injured to benefit from physical therapy — and you shouldn't wait until you are. Our wellness and performance services are built for active adults and athletes who want to maximize how their body moves and minimize the risk of it breaking down. We offer in-depth movement assessments, personalized strength and mobility programming, injury prevention, and performance optimization sessions — all designed around your goals and your body. Because the most powerful thing physical therapy can do is keep you in the game for the long haul.
Rehabilitation
Recover well. Come back stronger.
When injury, surgery, or pain does sideline you, we're here. We provide expert, one-on-one orthopedic rehabilitation for post-surgical recovery, tendinopathies, joint pain, and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. But our goal is never just to get you back to baseline — it's to use recovery as an opportunity to move better than you did before.
