Dealing with pain and mobility issues

Not at all, and this is a common misconception! We definitely do work with people who do have serious things going on or who have just had surgery, but most of our clients are people who are trying to avoid having surgery in the first place. We work with them to figure out what's keeping them from being able to be as active and fit as they like and given them a plan to reach their next level. We also work with people who want to optimize their performance in a variety of sports and activities who are looking for ways to keep their bodies healthy and injury-free for the long-term.

In addition, we also recommend coming in for an Annual Health Assessment and Movement Screen even if you don't have anything obvious going on. This session will give you a baseline and help you to be aware of potential problem areas to stay aware of.

• The short answer is no. The long answer is ‘maybe’! In Virginia you're able to see a physical therapist for 30 days without a referral, but you'll need one to continue therapy beyond 30 days. This may mean that you’ll have to see a physician to get one, or it could mean that if you have seen someone in the past we might be able to send them a status update and have them sign off on your plan of care. If you don’t need care beyond 30 days, or if you just need help with performance enhancement, injury prevention, or lifestyle modifications, then you may not end up needing one at all.
• If you are interested in receiving functional dry needling, you will need to have a written physician referral on file for that service, no matter the time frame.
• In any case, you are able to see us first without having to see a physician which can save a lot of time and money, and enables you to get started with treatment much sooner which can help you get better faster!

We'll work with you as a team to help you achieve your most important goals! Whether you're trying to achieve a PR in CrossFit, run your first half marathon, participate in Barre or yoga without pain, or just play with your kids without hurting, we'll help you get there!

We'll help you figure out what's going on (why you're having the pain or mobility limitations) and create a plan for what to do about it that's specific to you. We'll provide manual therapy (hands on treatment and dry needling if needed) to help you with the joint and muscle limitations you can't work on yourself, and give you a corrective exercise plan so you can be proactively working on improving in between sessions.

You'll always feels supported, accountable, and empowered during your sessions and if you're like most of our clients, you'll start feeling healthier, stronger, and more painfree from the very first visit!

We work with people who are ambitious, motivated, and already prioritize their health, but are having a few problems they need help with. Our clients are CrossFitters, yogis, barre enthusiasts, runners, and people who are pushing themselves (gently or enthusiastically!) to get to their next level. We work with people who take responsibility for the results they're getting in life, but who also know when it's time to call in a professional to help them start feeling better, stronger, more fit, and healthier than they know how to get themselves. Our clients aren't looking for a quick fix, but rather a long-term and sustainable solution. They want to learn the tools how to help themselves feel better and injury-free going forward into the future. If this sounds like you, we'd love for you to reach out to see how we can help!

We're movement and functional performance specialists so we work with any orthopedic issues that are causing you to feel pain or feel less mobile or agile than you should be. If you're having issues anywhere from your big toe to your head (like headaches), we'll be able to help!
