Our Team

Danica Lacson, PTA received her Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology with a minor in Filipino and Filipino American Studies from California State University – East Bay she then later went to receive her Associate’s Degree for Physical Therapist Assistant from Stanbridge University. In the beginning of 2010 Danica was actually a pre-nursing major. However, that changed in 2012. Danica tore her medial meniscus in 2011 and required surgery. During her recovery she saw both the world of a nurse and that of a physical therapist. She noticed that her physical therapist saw her recovery through the end and not only cared about her physical well being, but also her mental and emotional well being. When her physical therapist went above and beyond to ensure that Danica was okay in all aspects of recovery, ultimately drew her to the physical therapy world.

Danica finds the most rewarding aspect of the physical therapy field is seeing the smiles on her patients when they are able to acknowledge the small improvements in their daily lives as a result of physical therapy. 

When Danica isn’t guiding her patients through recovery she enjoys traveling, playing video games, photography, reading and spending time with her dog, Missy. Danica is currently located at our Chino location and can be reached by email at danica@marketplacewellnesscenter.com
