Specialties
Rose Physical Therapy Group is one of Washington, DC's most trusted physical therapy practices, built on a simple premise: every patient deserves the full attention of a dedicated Doctor of Physical Therapy for every session. Every appointment is a full sixty-minute, one-on-one session — no aides, no assistants, no shared sessions. Just one highly trained clinician, one patient, and one individualized plan built around that person's specific needs and goals.
Rose PT serves patients from three convenient locations across Washington, DC. The Farragut Square and Dupont Circle location at 1725 DeSales Street NW serves downtown DC professionals and residents. The Navy Yard location at 1015 Half Street SE is a hub for runners, athletes, and the growing Southeast DC community. The Friendship Heights location at 5225 Wisconsin Avenue NW serves Upper Northwest DC, including Chevy Chase and Tenleytown.
Services include dry needling, Blood Flow Restriction therapy, Active Release Techniques, McKenzie Method, running assessments, pelvic floor physical therapy, vestibular rehabilitation, ergonomic assessment, pediatric physical therapy, and sports rehabilitation. Every therapist holds a doctoral degree in physical therapy and brings advanced training, genuine curiosity, and a commitment to finding the true source of each patient's pain — not just treating the symptom.
Love How You Feel - that's our motto and that's what we want for you!
History
Established in 2012.
Rose Physical Therapy was founded on a simple but powerful belief: the highest level of physical therapy care — the kind reserved for professional athletes and elite competitors — should be available to everyone. Not just the pros. Everyone.
From the beginning, Rose PT was built around one-on-one, full-hour sessions with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. No aides. No assembly lines. No shortcuts. Just the focused, individualized attention that championship athletes have always received, delivered to weekend warriors, desk workers, new parents, and anyone who wants to feel their best every single day.
That commitment has grown into one of Washington, DC's most respected physical therapy practices, with three locations serving Dupont Circle, Navy Yard, and Friendship Heights. The standard never wavers. At Rose PT, every patient receives the best — because that was the whole point from day one.
Love how you feel with the help of Rose PT.
