“5-Star Review for Coach Aric

I reached out to Aric for help with a nagging issue—a winged right scapula that had been bothering me for a while. We live far apart, otherwise I'd be at his gym every day, no question. Despite the distance and not even seeing my shoulder in person, Aric listened carefully to my description and immediately knew what to do.

He sent me three exercises tailored to my issue, and on the very first day of doing them, I already felt a noticeable difference. No guesswork, no fluff—just precise, practical guidance from someone who clearly knows what they're doing.

Sometimes, the insight you need doesn’t come from a doctor—it comes from a wise coach who genuinely understands the body. Aric is that guy. Can’t recommend him enough.“

“Amazing care! I had a wonderful experience at Kelayi Chiropractic today. I arrived with chronic back pain and had an informative and healing session which greatly increased my mobility, comfort and understanding of the root of my discomfort. I look forward to going again. Really kind, in-tune care! I’m so grateful.“

“In my opinion, Dr. David and his team are the best chiropractors in Virginia. They are consistently professional and take the time to explain exactly what the issue is and how they plan to treat it. I’ve been visiting their office for over four years for a variety of symptoms, and every single one has been resolved to my complete satisfaction.
What truly sets them apart is their genuine care. They always follow up with you after your issue has been resolved—something very few doctors take the time to do. They treat you with the same concern they would offer their own family, and that level of compassion speaks volumes about their passion and humility as healthcare providers.
I recommend them 100%.“

“Brad is a first-rate trainer. In my mid 30s but my body is a mechanical disaster. I’ve got multiple levels of spine degeneration, a disc replacement, fused ankles, fused foot, pins in my wrists, tears in my shoulder, nerve pain. Day to day I’m in a lot of pain. But after these workouts I feel great. Like I’m in the best “worst” shape of my life. Brad understands the human body like a physical therapist so the injured areas aren’t overworked but strengthened. While the healthy areas are improved and supporting the injured body parts. Highly recommend working with him.“

“I have been involved with Gonstead chiropractic as a patient for many years and found Dr. Campbell when I moved to NOVA about a year ago. I can tell you he is truly incredible at his craft; I no longer have back pain/discomfort. His knowledge, professionalism and competence are also second to none. Pricing is reasonable, he discounts his rate for military personnel, and he's very accessible if you have questions after hours. Most important, he cares about every patient who walks through the door. Highly recommend Dr. C for your chiro and health/wellness needs.“

“Working with Archie has been a complete game-changer for me. He is incredibly knowledgeable and truly passionate about what he does. His understanding of exercise techniques is on another level—he pays attention to every detail of form, execution, and progression, which has helped me train smarter and avoid injuries.
What really sets Archie apart is how he combines training with practical nutrition guidance. He didn’t just give me a generic diet plan; he taught me physiological tricks and strategies that actually make sticking to a healthy diet feel sustainable and even easy. He helped me structure meal timing, manage hunger, and build habits that fit my real life.
The results speak for themselves: I’ve lost over 40 pounds so far and I’m still steadily losing while feeling stronger and more energetic than I have in years.
If you’re serious about transforming your body and your health, Archie is the trainer you want in your corner. Highly, highly recommend!
Thank you, Archie—you’re the best!“

“Highly, highly recommend Elin Fitness to anyone looking for a high caliber personal training experience and all around support team.Elin and his team (I worked with John) were extraordinary professionals. They exceeded my expectations for a personal trainer and offered a multitude of training plan options that I could fit in my busy schedule. Unfortunately, due to external physical health challenges, I am unable to continue working with them. During the time I was figuring out my care, Elin was not only very understanding but was also a tremendous resource for options I could pursue for my specific situation, and worked with me while I figured out my next steps. I’m grateful I got to work with them for the season I was able to.“

“This gym is nothing short of amazing. I am feeling stronger, healthier, and happier after only going there for a month. I highly recommend.“

“We spent fifteen years searching for answers. Numerous doctors, numerous treatments, no real results. In a matter of weeks with Dr. Lawson, that changed.

The difference in our family member's quality of life is not subtle. It is dramatic. Dr. Lawson and her team practice medicine differently. They look deeper, think more comprehensively, and actually listen. They find what others miss.

If you have been through the conventional system and come up empty, this practice is worth your time. We are grateful beyond words.“

“I have been a patient of this practice for 3 1/2 years. I think the practitioners there are educated, informed, and truly want to help people. They are caring and take the time to listen and advise you.

The weakest link for the practice is the front desk and administrative office. About 5 months after I became a patient, I tried to sign my 11 y.o. son up at the practice because he had eczema, despite dietary changes we had made at home. I registered him online and waited 2 weeks for the link to fill out his paperwork, but the link never came. When I called the office, Erin (who I think does not work there anymore) told me that she was going through the registrations and would send me a ink soon. To me, this is not good customer service, especially after I had explained that I registered my son 2 weeks ago, but I waited patiently, nonetheless. After another week passed by and still no response, I asked in person the next time during my appointment. Erin could not find my son's registration, so I used my phone while in the office to register my son again. This time, she was able to confirm receipt and sent me a link to finish my son's registration. This experience was annoying.

I noticed that sometime after this, more people were brought to work at the front desk and customer service did seem to improve somewhat until about 2 months ago. After my last appointment with Dr. Wong in September 2020, I was told to schedule my follow up in December. On October 13th I called and left a message on voice mail. My call was not returned, and on Oct. 17th, I sent an email with the subject "Second request for appointment" to the general inbox. As I am a teacher and very busy, I did not realize that nobody had responded to my inquiries until the end of October, so I called the front desk again. This time, somebody did answer the phone and I was able to schedule an appointment with Dr. Wong, but because Dr. Wong books out so far in advance, the earliest available was not Jan. 11th.

Needless to say, this last experience was very frustrating. I realize that the practice is very busy and they do spend extra time, listening to patients, which I feel, is very important. However, it is tricky for super busy people like me to have to follow up and take responsibility for calling again and again to schedule appointments. I teach during office hours and cannot always make phone calls. I would also expect that emails should be returned, as well.

I do have to say that they now have a person who deals with insurance matters and that has been extremely helpful, so that is real plus for this practice, as I have had some EOBs that needed further attention.

Overall, I give this practice 4 stars because of the weakest link in front desk/administrative matters/ customer service.

Update: 7/25/24:
My comments about this office remain unchanged. I still give it a 4/5. The office still has great practitioners, but the weakest link is the office management. The practice uses a portal and you are supposed to communicate with the practitioners via the portal. Well....if someone initiates the communication first and you respond, there is no problem. However, if you initiate the communication, there is usually no response. I sent a message TWO times asking for my appointment to be rescheduled and I received no response. Finally, I called and reached someone and was able to reschedule, but by then my practitioner was WAY booked out. This week, I sent a message with a question about a follow up to my mammogram. The automatic reply states that they will respond in 2 business days. Today makes the third business day and I have received no response. I will probably have to phone the office. It's just annoying. If they cannot reply to clients via the portal, then they should not offer it as an option.“

“Amazing doctor. Dr. Ham really spends time with you and cares about your pain. You see real results if you follow her treatment plans. She got rid of my TMJ that I had for years. She doesn’t try to get you on a payment plan and push unnecessary appointments onto you. Extremely honest and genuine!“

“Christine and her team are amazing and talented therapists! If you're struggling with anxiety and you're located in Falls Church, VA, I highly recommend that you reach out!“

“I've lost 40+ lbs working with Dr. Dadkhah, highly recommend if you're having trouble with any aspect of your eating.“

“I absolutely love everything about this place. I’ve been able to reach my fitness goals through short, intense, and super supportive one-on-one workouts with truly amazing trainers and staff. No matter who I work with…Aasim, Will, Ian, or anyone else…the workouts are always customized to my personal goals. They push me in the best way, with tons of positive encouragement and genuine care.

They’re also incredibly mindful about proper form and injury prevention, which makes me feel safe and confident during every session. This has been such a great complement to my PT, and I honestly look forward to my workout every single week.

What really sets this place apart is how personal it feels. Even the general manager, Laura, knows who I am! The environment is warm and welcoming while still being professional and focused. And I’ll say it again…every single trainer here is top notch. They all cheered me on when I was able to complete my first pull-up!“

“A wonderful psychologist! Very nice , patient, sweet and understanding! She can really listen!“

“July 2025 marks the sixth year I have been going to Dedicated Strength - there are many reasons why I'm dedicated to this gym (see what I did there?). Joe and Angela, the owners, care deeply about their clients and their clients’ goals. They listen closely to what you want to achieve and work with you to make it happen. If life throws you curve balls (like back problems), they ensure you can continue your fitness journey safely and successfully. They foster an inclusive, low stress environment. I cannot count the number of times I have entered the gym beaten down by the stress of the day, only to leave happier and with less stress. They hire qualified professional trainers who share the same values of client focus and a collaborate, inclusive environment. I also value the comradery with the fellow clients, as we travel along our fitness goals; no one is judgmental, from staff to client. Dedicated Strength is something special, and I am very glad I found it.“

“After months of back pain and limited relief from other treatments, I was referred to Spine Arts Center. After a few visits, I'm happy to say I'm now pain-free and back to my normal activities and sports. Dr. Lim is extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and caring, and the entire staff is attentive and welcoming. Thank you very much to everyone at Spine Arts Center - I'm truly grateful!“

“Dr. keita is a special, gifted Subject Matter Expert on Holistic Chiropractic Care. I have lived in NW DC for 7 years and been with her for about 5 years. She sets the bar high because she truly educates me and goes above and beyond to get to the root of the issue. In one visit she implements several modalities to address my problems holistically. Despite living in NW, I travel way across town for her because she is a wise, knowledgeable, loving, honest and believes in Knowledge Transfer which as an educated consumer I highly prioritize.“

From nutrition and cooking classes to sophrology and kettlebell training, their diverse sessions add significant value to our programs.

“Alvie has been my trainer for a year now, and what stands out about him right away is his empathy. He genuinely listens, understands where you are on any given day, and adjusts your workouts accordingly – no ego, just presence.

I’ve watched his own transformation over the last year, and it makes his guidance even more powerful. He lives what he teaches. He’s committed to helping you improve your overall quality of life, and you can feel that dedication in every session.

He’s incredibly intuitive. The way he handles challenges, resolves tension, and shows up for people is something I hear about often and also experience firsthand. When you’re training with him, you truly feel like you’re his only client. He’s friendly, grounded, and he pays attention to the details that matter.

He never pushes you past your boundaries, but he always makes sure you’re giving your best. His focus on correct form — especially in a strength-training environment built on lower intensity with heavier weights — is invaluable. He knows exactly how to guide you without overwhelming you.

And on top of all that, his customer service is exceptional. He creates an environment where you not only feel supported, but where you genuinely want to show up. He builds a relationship that feels personal and consistent, and he watches the little details while still making you feel completely at ease. That kind of experience keeps you motivated to come back, not because you “have to,” but because training with him simply feels good.“

“Staff is professional and very friendly. Doctor Michelle and Sean Woods are both knowledgeable and super helpful with getting you up and running!“

“Njeri reviewed my history from our last work together and she thoroughly asked questions which framed where I currently was with eating, proper intake, supplements, exercise, medications; And, how we’re going to move forward to detox to strengthen my body to put my MGUS in remission. I’ve done an intensive questionnaire and I’m in the process of submitting all recent tests results so that Njeri can review and develop a composite for our plan of attack. Njeri Jarvis is an exceptional nutritionist and I trust her to help me grow and heal.“

“Wil is an awesome trainer. He’s very knowledgeable, kind, and motivating. I’ve become stronger and more muscular because of him. I can’t imagine working with someone more professional and qualified. He’s highly recommended.“

“Dr. CIndy is amazing. I have been going to her for spinal adjustments for more than 20 years. I always feel better after an adjustment. I've also purchased orthotics from her, and she has referred me to other practitioners for massages and acupuncture. I highly recommend Dr. Cindy and Willow Wellness Center.“

“Dr. Salcedo is truly exceptional—she has magic hands. When I first started seeing her, I could barely walk. She stayed patient, thoughtful, and fully committed throughout my recovery, constantly adjusting my treatment plan based on what my body needed in the moment. Her care didn’t just help me feel better day-to-day—it also played a pivotal role in shaping my physical therapy and overall recovery plan.

This has been a long journey, and I can say with complete confidence that I would not be where I am today without her support and expertise.

Beyond her skill, Dr. Salcedo is incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in her patients’ well-being. She even encouraged me to get bloodwork done and accurately anticipated vitamin deficiencies I should look into—something that made a meaningful difference in my healing.

And I have to give a special shoutout to Luna, her in-office service animal, who deserves “Employee of the Month” every single month. ?

If you’re looking for a chiropractor who is not only highly skilled but truly cares, I cannot recommend Dr. Salcedo enough.“

“A friend recommended that I consult Don Diggs for accupuncture treatment of my plantar fasciitis. I was leery of starting cortisone shots with my MD, especially with the warning that tendons can become more brittle that way. With five accupuncture treatments now, I am down from a 9/10 on the pain scale to about a 1 or 2. There are days I don't feel it at all. I am really grateful for the combination of accupuncture and e-stimulation. I also appreciate Don's advice about a few exercises tostrengthen the the area.“
