At Mountain to Sea Physical Therapy, we are dedicated to helping our clients live their best lives by providing personalized rehabilitation services tailored to their unique needs and goals. Our team, led by Dr. Heidi Gastler, believes in pushing the boundaries of traditional physical therapy to help our clients overcome their limitations and achieve their full potential.

Our founder, Dr. Heidi Gastler, is a lifelong adventurer who has dedicated her career to helping others overcome their injuries and live active, healthy lives. Growing up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Heidi competed in downhill ski racing and snowboarding, and danced in a ballet company. After moving to Southern California in 2011, she discovered a passion for ocean sports and now enjoys prone paddling, scuba diving, and staying fit at a local Strongman gym. Heidi's personal experiences with injury and rehabilitation have inspired her to create a physical therapy experience that is unlike any other in Southern California.

Natalie Eckhardt, a Southern California native, joined the Mountain to Sea team in 2021. After a 10-year career at Fox Sports, Natalie decided to pursue her passion for helping others and became a physical therapist. She is dedicated to providing personalized, one-on-one care to her clients and believes in the power of movement to transform lives.
