Physical Therapy near Fairfax

“Laura is a great teacher - kind, clear, effective and caring. Her movement studio is a joy for me to visit. Highly recommend a package of her private classes, for orientation and healing.“

“Great team from the front desk to the physio staff. They have helped me with my mid and lower back recovery and I've been able to slowly increase my exercise intensity.
Shout out to Ryan at the front desk and Roberto the physio.“

“I have been seeing Marci at Pelvic Path for close to 10 months now. My initial reason for coming was bladder leakage... But things began surfacing in my body that I thought were unrelated. Each session I would mention the new thing and each time Marci would have an explanation on how the symptom I was experiencing was related to the pelvic floor and would offer up an exercise to address the issue. Not only has my leakage improved dramatically but so has my overall physical strength and mental well-being. She uses an integrative approach to healing and strengthening. I feel empowered and engaged in my healing process. She is giving me tools to take with me as I move forward.Marci is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, empathetic, adaptable and upbeat with just the right amount task master thrown in.The sessions are always different and meet me where I'm at on the day of the session. I trust her implicitly! She is a valued member of my health care team.“

“I had a sciatica problem and received excellent care at Renew. I worked with a physical therapist the entire visit, rather than a PT Aid showing me my follow on exercises. I worked with Anna and Cassie, and both were excellent! When I had questions in between visits, they responded that day, either by phone or email. The front desk staff is friendly and efficient. After my sciatica was resolved, I left with a maintenance set of exercises that will help prevent it from recurring. Very happy with Renew!“

“This team of professionals helped me traverse a serious injury so that I could look to the future with new hope.“

“I'm a longtime StretchLab regular. The practitioners have all been great. They get to know your flexibility habits and limitations and actually think of new strategies in their off hours. Everyone seems to enjoy being there and it's always a healthy vibe.“

“Jackie is helping me with an SI joint injury that had caused pain and greatly decreased mobility for a year before beginning to work with her. She initially ensured we didn't move too fast or push too far when I started and was in a lot of pain, and gave me exercises that felt safe but still made progress. I'm getting strength and confidence in my body back after being pretty much bedridden in pain and fear for nearly a year. I highly recommend Jackie. The women at the front desk and that schedule are really nice too!“

“I've been going there for years every time I'm helped with my aches and pains. If it hurts get it taken care of there you will love it“

“This place is so fantastic you almost don’t mind that you’re recovering / injured / healing. My daughter and I have been regulars at this clinic for almost a year and a half, as she pre-hab’d and re-hab’d from knee surgery and in my case, as I fight to be as fierce as possible to fend off faux knees. The clinic is fun, clean, friendly, welcoming, organized and all the things. But the secret weapon is the combination of personalized care and best-in-class skill of all the therapists there. We’ve worked with many of the Therapists but have also watched / listened to the others since we’ve been there so often. They are all truly exceptional. To be clear, don’t book an appointment here if you just want to put in the requisite weeks some doctor told you you need to be able to check the box. Do go here if you are ready to learn and work and feel and perform your very best.“

“I feel the best I’ve felt in a long time with these sessions with Jeff. Best PT I’ve had. Very grateful! Pain gone mobility increased swimming improving.“

“Referred by a friend, Book took care of my shoulder issue in one session. Acute? Chronic? Maintenance? I recommend Brook for all!“

“I’m visiting Dr. Drew and he is treating my Frenchies for spine health as well, I know, very Marin. More like San Rafael. I’m getting adjustments to support my low back and hips, the same as Penny and Bazzi. He also does horses offsite, Right? I found Dr. Drew looking for cold or hot laser to help with my Psoas, I am also doing ultrasound treatments once a week after each session, using multiple modalities to facilitate free movement. The team is great and Dr. Drew gives good clean adjustments for spinal care. This is a great local resource.“

“Kathleen has been wonderful. First, she properly diagnosed what my issues were, then she showed me ways to help correct them, and designed a regimen for a path to full recovery. She is an amazing therapist, and a delight to work with!!!“

“Marin Spine is the gold standard for end to end wellness and performance. Dr Chappy and Julia stand out from other businesses in the area as the experience is tailored to the individual. I am an endurance elite cyclist that suffered from severe leg and glute pain which sidelined me for over eight months and suffered between doctors and other chiropractors. Once in their hands, I was back on a bike in a few months as they guided with a recovery and therapy plan through manual therapy, exercises and premium equipment like focused shockwave, laser and red light bed therapy. The red light bed boosted my energy and helped reduce inflammation in my leg and knee. They care deeply about each patient and make you feel like part of their family. Without them, I would not be back in the game and regaining my strength and stability. If you are looking for the best in Marin, this is the end to end treatment for any injury.“

“I found Sam through a friend's referral. I had a wonderful massage. Sam is very knowledgeable and caring. He spends time getting you know you and your needs. I highly recomend Sam.“

“I've been going to this facility for 2 years now. First for one on-going issue and now another reason. The front desk is helpful, friendly, and accomodating. The therapists I've had are very informed and focused on making things better. It's a good feeling to know you're being well taken care of, so I'm grateful for having them..“

“Tammara is the best trainer I have ever worked with! Because she is so experienced both as a PT and a trainer, she is really able to tailor my workouts. I have a chronic illness and she has been able to give me workouts that have increased my strength, endurance and flexibility. She is also fun to work with!“

“This place is AWESOME. Huge help to the many issues Erik & Heather are the best!!!!!! Trust me and give this place a try. I am hooked.“

“2 years ago, DeAnna was the a life saver after a knee surgery. My recovery was 100% successful, thanks to her care. Now I’m getting ready to schedule an appointment for a another injury.“

“On my first visit to Dr. Paul's office, I talked about my ongoing pain and numbness on my whole left side. I had symptoms going on since 2016. On my first reflex test with Dr. Paul, I could feel how different the muscle/nerve response was compared to my right side. I had lost 90% of my grip on my left hand, barely felt my left leg, and had unbearable pain for someone my age (27). I found Dr. Paul through a referral and I am amazed by what I could accomplish thus far. He recommended a corrective care program that would cover 90 days (3 times per week) with a reasonable discount which really helped me since I needed more visits because of my situation. This program included re-exams, re-X-rays, and home care routine exercises with some home kits provided by his clinic. I learned with Dr. Paul that soft tissue and nerves heal slowly, therefore patience is necessary to see results. So as you can see in the images attached, during these 3 months I've made real progress, drinking more water, stretching, and going to my therapy with Dr. Paul. I've let these symptoms take over for so long that my body is slowly recovering only now and I will continue regular care with Dr. Paul until my frequency is reduced to once a month. The tipping point was when the pain started spreading to my right upper back and going to reach my right arm, and I am right-handed. My symptoms were these: Numbness and heaviness on the left arm and leg, head, left buttock, and testicle, difficulty breathing, sleeping and exercising or working, zero motivation to complete tasks, 24h stabbing pain in my back near the spine, burning on my hands and dropping objects, unable to hold objects for over 30 seconds on my left hand, neck pain, heaviness on chest and pain chewing food on my left side.Dr. Paul also explained that shifts in our spine, incorrect posture, and degeneration of disks, cut down the communication (flow of energy) with the organs, slowly causing disease and failure. I still have a lot of work to do and I'm glad it wasn't too late for me.I'd also like to remind you that it's still important to get extra exams done and really get to the bottom of what you're feeling. What I can say is that chiropractic help was fundamental for my symptoms to start going away and finally be able to return activities to moderate levels. I bartend and wait tables, so I am always on the move, getting those regular adjustments also make a huge difference.Today, I feel like I went from 0% to at least 80% in general in these 3 months and I am feeling a lot better, and walking straight, which also makes me feel taller and people definitely notice my new level of confidence by the way I carry myself.Needless to say, I renewed care with Dr. Paul for another shorter-term plan after the corrective care, which will allow me to reduce visits little by little as I'm recovering.“

“Susan, Danielle, and Chad are the best. Very patient with my long recovery. They’ve taken the time to educate me and really observe what is going on with my body as it heals.“

“I've been going there for years every time I'm helped with my aches and pains. If it hurts get it taken care of there you will love it“

“If you have been struggling with tennis elbow, I strongly recommend Allen. Don’t try cortisone, give this a try first. Allen is 100% focused on tennis (and golf) elbow. His approach is primarily on using massage techniques to stimulate the rehabilitation of tendons and ligaments but also on stretching and strength exercises. I’ve been to about five sessions and feel very much that my tennis elbow issues are close to resolved.“

“Dr. Lauren Malachowski is currently my treating physical therapist. As someone who has been both a physical therapy patient off and on for the past 40 years, and a rehabilitation professional who worked with physical therapists collegially, and co-treated patients with them, I am eager to let folks know what an exceptionally talented physical therapist Dr. Malachowksi is. Not only is she accomplished with all of the standard and cutting-edge knowledge and skill of a well-trained and licensed physical therapist, but she brings to the work a rare sensibility for grasping the whole person, along with a passionate commitment to assist patients in realizing their rehabilitation goals. Perhaps most unusual, I have found that within a very short time she showed an uncanny intuitive ability to understand exactly what I needed as a patient, despite my presenting with a complicated history of musculo-skeletal challenges. Dr. Malachowski’s uncommon insight as a clinician felicitously combines with an accurate empathic quality and a genuine relational facility that makes the experience of working with her fresh and effective. Most remarkable of all, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Malachowski forged a powerfully functional, individually-honed and fruitful therapeutic relationship with me, entirely through remote means.Eliezer T.

“I developed a serious back problem and could not walk. The medical recommendation was surgery. I wanted to try something less intrusive, though the pain and limitations on functioning were severe. A friend had had a good experience with Dr. Schillinger, and recommended him. Previously I had been rather doubtful about chiropractic work. Boy, was I wrong. I am walking now, without pain or discomfort, getting stronger and feeling tremendously better. Dr. Schillinger is outstanding. He's thoughtful, informed, open and pays attention. I recommend him highly and without reservation.“

“Not only is this kind of body work amazing but the practitioners here all have lots of other and varied skills that can really help you get out of the bind you're in with your body. They do a lot of work to release trauma impingements that cause downstream pain and dysfunctions. As well as fix any type of recent postural dysfunction that's causing pain. They work on your body to find what muscles are being recruited in any and all types of movements and reawaken and engage proper muscles to help correct any imbalance that's causing an issue. They know a lot about the body and reawakening it. All the practitioners work together to help figure out your quickest path to recovery. And everyone is super nice there from a practitioners to the office managers. I had many issues with my feet and all types of things with my back from being in a wheelchair for a bit. They straightened up my back on one visit and kept it maintained that way with maintenance visits, also did wonders to correcting the strength and posture in my feet. Highly recommend.“
