Physical Therapists near Chevy Chase

“I had chronic pain in most of my body, headaches, and severe dizziness. After months of tests and some PT, I was faced with a diagnosis of a lifetime of chronic pain regulated by medication and very limited ability to do sport. After I started working with Bill Amos I managed to get to a point where I was pain free and able to run and ski again. And I now also have the tools to stay that way. Bill has a tremendous wealth of knowledge, breadth of techniques, and insights. I can't recommend him enough.“

“As a physical therapy student, this was one of the strongest rotations I have had. It was an excellent learning experience to take what I learned in the classroom to applying it to my patients. I especially enjoyed the camaraderie between physical therapists and students, and I feel very lucky to have had Joe as my clinical instructor.

Two rotations later I find myself applying the skills I learned from my time at R2P, and quoting Joe on the daily; “Are your muscles shaking? That’s weakness leaving the body.” Or my personal favorite “that looks smooth, like a hot knife through butter.” Only spoken in a Long Island accent, respectfully.

P.S. Tim, I stole your fork and took it back to Texas with me. :)“

“TJ is an exceptional physical therapist who accurately diagnosed my shoulder condition and developed a targeted treatment program that helped me avoid surgery. His expertise and thorough approach not only eliminated my shoulder pain but also gave me the tools to maintain my progress through a well-designed maintenance routine. TJ's dedication to helping patients achieve their goals makes him stand out in his field.“

“STAR PT is the best PT place I've been to since I moved to the DMV 20 years ago. All of the practitioners are highly skilled and very caring, and they have a wide skill set no matter what your needs. They give individual attention to each patient with an emphasis on manual therapy and personalized rehab. The space is well laid out, friendly and easily accessible, and parking is easy. The front desk is very helpful and always communicates well. I recommend them to all my Pilates students and friends.“

“I recently had a total knee replacement and ended up going to Advantage PT which was close to my home. The experience I had there was fantastic and they had me up and "running" in no time. My PT guy was Sam Corbin. He is extremely knowledgeable, very professional, and very personable. The facilities are relatively new, and contain all that is needed for any type of PT. The supporting staff and other PT specialist were all great not only for myself, but also what I observed with other patients. I would not hesitate to recommend Advantage PT to anyone, and we certainly go back there if I need more PT. A really great place!“

“Sebastian treated my mom with great respect and encouraged her as she gained strength and balance. I’m grateful she could receive such expert, compassionate care in her own home.“

“Maddie is a super-pro; her knowledge of the human body and how to support my recovery from ankle surgery has really changed my mind about the value of physical therapy. In particular, she provides clear, helpful exercises that challenge my mobility without over-extending my ankle. I feel more confident in a full recovery with Maddie on my case. She is also kind and empathetic. The whole team is friendly and professional. Highly recommend.“

“Danelle is a healer. It's almost as if she uses her knowledge and intuition to help the places in your body that are in pain. She is also genuine and a delight to talk to. I highly recommend her services!
I had been suffering with shoulder, neck, and back pain for years and every time I saw her she alleviated it more and more.“

“Excellent care! This was my second time coming to this location for different PT needs and I feel like I have my regular life back! The entire staff is well-trained and they keep up on current research and methods to support their patients. I highly recommend this practice!“

“Shawn has worked with our 5 year old for over a year and is superb! She's a wonderful person who is very skilled at working with kids. Highly recommend her and her lovely team.“

“It’s a fabulous place for therapy. The physical therapist are fantastic. Personable, empathetic,just so helpful. This is the place to go for pain and help. Denise“

“I attended Elite Physical Therapy in 2024 before and after a labrum tear hip orthoscopy surgery. The staff were always kind, supportive, and knowledgeable. I was always impressed how it seemed like each member of the staff knew each patients name. The PT was instrumental in my recovery. They paced the increased difficult in therapy exercises perfectly. Often I would be unsure I could perform a certain action and a week or two later would be doing it with ease. You're in great hands here.“

“Jordyn & Lacey are fantastic! The way they poured into my Physical therapy daily helps me so much! I couldn’t lift my leg/hip when I first came in. I was scared , intimidated and unsure.

I left confident and ready to attack life again . Ladies thank you for building me up inside out. I’m ready for the summer because of you. I’m going to miss you both.

Micah & Kirk!! God bless you and may you continue to heal the masses forever!!“

“Tony Touma at CORE is fantastic. He's done more for rehabbing my knee in a few weeks after replacement surgery than Phoenix people did in six months. That's because he spends all his time manipulating my knee and figuring out how my body mechanics are not working a year after surgery. He then gives me the proper exercises to do at home to rebuild my knee strength and flexibility where it is off kilter. Phoenix in Tenleytown just had me doing exercises for the whole 45 minutes I was there and did almost no body manipulation. It was in and out for everyone with little hands on work, especially work that would identify what was wrong. I can't say enough about Tony Touma and CORE.“

“I have been suffering from knee pains since Nov. 2023. My doctor suggested physical therapy and 15 sessions from 2 clinics later, I got some improvements but nowhere near recovery. My friend recommended Fyzical Therapy at Rockville so I decided to give it one more try. This place is huge with so many machines & equipment. My first appointment was with Dr. Davis who was very thorough and helpful. She cares very much about her patients' well being and is very passionate about her work. A BIG THANKS to therapist David Siemien who is always pleasant, efficient and compassionate. He patiently showed me every exercises, took the time to walk me through it. Some days, I came in with more pains than usual. David always tried very hard to make me feel better by using the massage gun, the taping on my knee and EMS. If you are looking for a good PT, I highly recommend Fyzical at Rockville. Everyone is super nice & friendly here. The front desk staff, Jennifer, is also amazing. Thank you all!“

“Bret is amazing! I was in so much pain and couldn’t use my right hand. He helped me heal, strengthen, and get back to my life! Everyone at his practice is warm, engaging and supportive. I highly recommend Bret!“

“Leizl is an excellent physical therapist and a lovely person to work with. She takes time to get to know her patient's needs and individual situation, more so than any other PT I had previously been to. Was able to make solid progress even given my complicated situation.“

“Julie was great to work with as both a personal trainer and physical therapist. She is super knowledgeable, quick to identify and deal with issues, and fun to hang out with for an hour. She was also super accommodating with schedule changes for those with busy lifestyles. Highly recommend!“

“This is one of if not the best physical therapy establishment I've used in the DMV. Jon and his team are skilled at and compassionate about their work. I worked with Jon and Juhi and can say that they are some of the best you can get in DC. Their knowledge, techniques, and dedication to healing are remarkable. Both worked on my knee injury and I can say that it is much better than it's been in years, considering I saw other therapists prior to seeing them. I highly recommend CNMR for all your movement disorders and disabilities, to improve or restore the function and quality of your life.“

“Jamie is great. She has treated every member of my family. She is great for athletes who want to recover and stay in shape. As a triathlete, she knows how to navigate injury and recovery.“

“I’m amazed at the progress that I have made in the past 8 months going to NeuroPT. For the full hour of my appointment, the physical therapist works directly with me, one on one. She provides exercises that I can do at home and recommended an adaptive gym where I can go workout additionally. I’m extremely pleased with the neurological pt knowledge, skill, attention and care given to me and each client I have seen come through their door.I read one posted review hinting at possible race discrimination. I’ve seen people of color as clients. I don’t see that as issue. It is a small practice without a welcoming reception desk so “call backs” may get delayed. They focus on their clients, therefore, returning calls may get delayed.Overall. I believe NeuroPT deserves a 10 star review it were possible.“

“I saw Dr Benz in the Spring of 2024 and she changed my life. Not only did she take the time to listen to me, but she really made it a point to help me find solutions to my pain.

I came to her for knee pain, but uncovered my knee pain was a symptom of poor muscle engagement. Dr Benz put the therapy into Physical Therapy by actively listening to how I made it to this point and debunked all of the crazy internet ideas that Google gave me. Having someone who believes the pain and the other issues I had is highly unusual for any doctor. I appreciated not fighting to prove my symptoms, but rather have a partner who was invested in getting to the bottom of the root cause.

She also really puts the physical into PT. Firstly, she helped release some incredibly tight muscles! Despite going to a massage therapist for years, her efforts in the few weeks I was there were more impactful. Plus, it is clear from the exercises she gave me that she is an expert on how the body works. Together the passive and active work is the true reason my pain went from a 10 to a 3 today. (Plus, my continued verve to do the exercises she recommended)

Having a PT who cares is unusual for me. But after visiting Dr Benz for a few weeks, I am an entirely different person! My quality of life greatly approved since seeing her, I feel confident I can continue the work on my own, and that I have the building blocks to grow old gracefully. Thank you Dr Benz!“

“There aren't enough good things to say about Melissa. My injury continued to heal every day because she sure knows what she is doing. She is absolutely amazing and so caring for your health and well being. I had other health issues going on and she even reached out after my treatment to make sure I was doing okay. The rest of the staff is so welcoming and truly cares about you. Michael also had a positive impact on my experience after working with him for one day. I strongly recommend this PT business and recommend to anyone I know to go here.“
