I've been coming here for over six months. Never experience has been very good. My PT is Dr…read more Jordan M. I can't say enough good things about him. But to start: He genuinely cares about his patients. Not just the one on one care for PT, but as you as a person! I get to spend an hour with him and have really good conversation along with getting excellent care. He is very "hands on" which I appreciate. He listens to your concerns. And he goes hands-on whether it be massage or be cupping. And then gives you exercises and make sure you don't leave until you understand what you have to do. I even convinced my own wife to give Jordan a try as her PT and she truly understood what I was talking about. The front office staff is always helpful and polite Every time I call she picks up immediately and it's very helpful. They take my type of insurance which would be a dealbreaker if they did not accept Blue Cross Blue Shield. Every appointment with Dr Jordan, I leave feeling heard, encouraged, and like real progress is being made. If you're looking for a PT who will treat you like a whole person and not just a case file, look no further. Highest possible recommendation! It'll be a sad day when I no longer have any PT issues. Because I won't have an excuse To come here.

So read that stance again- this practice TAKES INSURANCE. For most people that means nothing- there's an assumption of we have insurance so a practices should take it. As an insurance accepting practice myself- that is NOT how it works. Small medical practice's (solo woman owned / mom and pop establishments etc like this one)- take a HUGE hit when accepting insurance contracts for their reimbursement. At this point many small business are getting paid HALF of what their cash only / self pay only counterparts are getting paid. Also- keep in mind, an insurance contract doesn't increase with inflation, cost of living, rising employer salaries etc.... I give the business lesson because it's only fair for people to be informed as to why a business structure is what it is for the sake of survival... Now on to the actual PRACTITIONERS- this staff is honestly saving people from surgeries, worsening conditions, and maladaptive body patterns... I've been working with them for 8-9 years and my mom now drives from VA to go to them as well. They're priceless in their cleanliness, knowledge, anatomy and functionality awareness plus FULL body attention. I cannot express how many times a DOCTOR or SURGEON has sent me in for an issue- and they've figured out it's stemming from somewhere totally different ! They also are certified to do dry needling and that's PRICELESS !!

I started seeing Tarik at Back to Life PT 8 weeks ago to rehab an ankle reconstruction. From my…read morevery first appointment, he and his support staff have been professional, considerate, accommodating and nothing short of amazing. A super thorough new patient assessment helped us to plan out a targeted rehab plan, especially after my surgeon's office wasn't clear on what rehab protocol we should follow. I always enjoy my appointments, and Tarik takes time to get to know each patient as an actual person. 8 weeks later, I am back to the lifestyle I had prior to surgery, with minimal discomfort or limitations. Hopefully I won't need PT in the future, but if I do I will 100% come back here!

I came to Hummingbird seeking a responsive approach to my condition. I communicated with Michelle…read morebeforehand about what to expect, and booking was super easy on the website. Michelle approaches things with listening and communication, and the thorough initial consult included a first session. Wow! I had myofascial release therapy (there is a lot of information about this on her website, and she also explains it very well in person). I could feel the 'release' and found the sessions greatly helpful both in the moment and over time. Michelle's approach is quite unique in the DC landscape for recuperation or self-care. Great, progressive practice as others attested! TIP--the online booking shows appointments each week, with flexibility according to your schedule and needs.

Michelle and Joanne are the best of the best. I've been seeing Michelle for over two years and have…read morereferred more than a handful of friends to her and Joanne. Michelle is a brilliant detective and excels at finding the root of problems rather than just treating symptoms. I do a lot of powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, and running, and she's helped me with both acute injuries as well as overall recovery and maintenance. Michelle has guided me through back injuries, a torn ACL (avoided surgery thanks to her!), tendinitis, bursitis, a concussion, and everything in between. Not only is Michelle a top notch physical therapist, but she's also incredibly thoughtful in how she approaches her practice. She has a very holistic approach to what she does and her knowledge of food allergies, supplements, and the effect of stress on the body have also been quite helpful for me. Who knew a physical therapist could help fix what your GI doctor gave up on? I happen to also be a public health grad student and personal trainer, and she is always magnificently patient when I pepper her with questions and bounce research ideas off her in my sessions. Everyone needs a Michelle in their health arsenal.

I started going to Pivot about two months ago with a knee injury. I have been to a handful of…read morephysical therapists for various things over the years, and Trey Persson at Pivot has been the best. He did a very thorough evaluation and put together a plan based on where I was physically and my goal to run in a specific race. He gave me aggressive but doable exercises and helped me put together a running plan, adjusting it as needed based on my pain level and feedback. The 2 or 3-times a week PT sessions were organized and allowed for flexibility based on how I was feeling. Highly recommend both Trey and Pivot.

On a number of visits, I felt disrespected as a patient. The PT I had didn't have good listening skills. He regularly barked orders and even snapped his fingers at me once. Very domineering person, which I am not sure is what you want in a PT. Important to check in with patients and where they are coming from instead of treating people like a set of boxes to check. They must be under some pressure to deliver some corporate result? I dealt with unnecessary drama because of the PT's poor social skills. I won't be returning to this office.

It was a cold Saturday morning in February and I was cutting it close to get to spin class. I…read moreparked and sprinted the two blocks to the studio and the frigid air hit my exposed calves below my 3/4 length workout pants like a brick. Didn't think anything about it until I felt a tug in my right calf within the first two minutes of spin class. I let it heal for several weeks but it never quite felt right. For months, I had a nagging tightness. Not pain, but lingering soreness. Stay with me here. I re-tore my ACL on my left knee a few years ago and opted not to have surgery again. For the most part, It's fine because I "retired" from the sport that caused the injury, but it's occasionally wobbly and my knee randomly pops out of place. So I decided to do what I should have done years ago and go to physical therapy to work on strengthening the muscles around the knee. Hope you're still with me, just trying to set the stage for why Rose Physical Therapy is amazing. I'd met the husband of the owner at a Yelp event and he mentioned that his wife has a physical therapy business. Looked up the business later and saw that it had solid positive reviews. Also saw their business cards at Pacers Running and the employee also had good feedback. I made an appointment at Rose and was assigned to Laura based on my symptoms and her specialties. The DuPont office is bright, clean and modern. It sounds weird to comment about the aesthetics, but it really contributes to the experience and my comfort level. Laura is amazing--she takes the time to listen to where I'm having issues, especially during our initial session. Highly recommend! While I thought only my knee needed work, I mentioned where I continued to have calf tightness and she took a look. She explained where the muscles around an injury can lock up and if not loosened up, stay tight even when the original strain heals. During sessions, she works on those tightened muscles with some kind of sculpting tool, does dry needling to release some of the knotted, triggered areas, and then we do a series of exercises to build up strength and stability. I need to be better about doing the exercises at home to help speed along my recovery, but from the office visits alone, my problem areas are improving and I'm so glad I finally made that first appointment to get started. If you've got a nagging issue that you've been putting off addressing, go to Rose and get yourself right!

I have a terrible memory so Kat would give me detailed emails as to what to do for my weekly and daily exercises and stretches at home. Wonderful PT, wonderful place. Space has a good vibe, clean but not clinical, professional but warm, friendly and responsive staff, easy to get to by bus or metro. Above and beyond the treatment you will find at most physical therapy places (believe me I know from experience). Cannot recommend enough.

I had made no progress and had debilitating pain anytime I jogged even 100 yards. I cried in my evaluation out of frustration that I would never be normal again. Enter Dr. Nora Arnold. She explained exactly what she planned to do with me over the next 4-6 months and said she was confident she could get me to as close to "normal" as possible. Here, 6 months later, I'm so happy to say that I'm pretty much at 95% of what I used to be. She saved my knee with needling, exercises, and manual therapy. I cannot day enough good things about her and the entire practice, and I recommend them to literally everyone I know if they so much as mention discomfort. If I ever need PT again, I will run (since I can do that now!) back to Washington Wellness.

Turning 96 in June 2024, I have had excellent health but experienced a number of minor injuries…read moreconducive to using physical therapy. So I had had previous experience with this kind of treatment. The time I spent at Star was the best. To begin with, the facility is pleasant, with large windows, and very well laid out so that three or four therapists can work freely with patients with different levels of need. The atmosphere is welcoming and exudes a sense of community, working together to produce comfort and high performance. Sam Dozier, receptionist and Therapist Aide, greets people warmly, tirelessly arranges schedules to suit your convenience, and throughout your time there offers compassionate support. I worked alternately with Kyra Corradin and Aysha Ehsan. To sum up, I found them to be kind, caring, and focused. They are professionals with a special understanding of the power of movement to refresh and restore. Although work in the sessions is directed to particular areas of the body, the target is the whole person, not just a sore neck or knee. Kyra and Aysha began each session by asking how I was feeling that day with an interest not only in physical issues, but also in my spirits and general outlook. Their goal was to make me feel better through movement specifically directed to areas needing attention. If I indicated pain in a particular area, they would begin by massaging that spot, literally demonstrating the common expression, "I can feel your pain." I always did feel better after my sessions. However, both therapists strongly emphasized the importance of taking personal responsibility for learning and doing prescribed exercises at home. I thought they were great teachers, very good practitioners of their trade, and good at motivating me to carry on the lessons ourselves.

I went to STAR to get help with stretching, to be able to do the splits for competition dance…read morepurposes. Stretching on my own was losing its effectiveness and I wanted to see if there was a deeper problem that needed professional help. I had appointments with both Kathy and Annie. Unfortunately my first few experiences weren't that positive as far as the therapists being on time (for one appointment I had to wait 30 mins, due to traffic. But imagine if it was the reverse, I'm sure I would have been charged as a no show or wouldn't have been able to still have my appointment that day). It was a bit odd working with 2 therapists, as it seemed they both had their own approach to PT that didn't always line up with the other's instruction. Annie was nice and pleasant to work with. However, after about a month of going twice a week every week, I asked if she thought the sessions were what I needed (because they aren't cheap!) She recommended yoga. My last comment is regarding their billing practices. I paid the first bill in the office, and received the second bill in the mail. However the bill stated it was already past due. I called the office to pay and asked why the bill was past due. I was given some excuse about the way the insurance payments hit. That's unacceptable to me and has never happened in all of my adult life. Overall the experience going to STAR was one I didn't feel I benefited from, and could have saved a lot of time and money.
