Rafael Cahill
Meet Rafael
Dr. Rafael Cahill, PT, has experience treating patients of all ages with a wide variety of conditions throughout the human body. Rafael was born and raised in the Bay Area, he studied Biology and Nutritional Science at UC Berkeley
before earning his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from USC.
He started his career in Biotech as part of a team working on the largest genome-wide association study
of its day. He sustained an injury while weight training which led him to discover the field of Physical
Therapy. He realized PT married his passions for health, science and exercise, and could provide him
with tools and expertise to help himself, his loved ones, and his patients to improve their quality of life
and return to doing what they love.
Rafael’s treatment style focuses on understanding his patients’ goals, taking a collaborative approach to
forming a treatment plan tailored to his patients’ individual needs. As a therapist he endeavors to
empower his patients with movement and exercise, teaching techniques and strategies he encourages
them to use both during and after the rehab process. He also uses hands on techniques to improve his
patients’ pain and mobility.
Rafael still loves weight training, as well as cooking and eating tasty food, the outdoors, playing with his
dog, and videogames.
