Cutting-Edge Physical Therapy
Why Patients Choose Us?
Not all physical therapy is the same. At Sports and Orthopaedic Therapy Services, every visit is one-on-one with a Doctor of Physical Therapy, from your first evaluation to your last session. You are never handed off to an aide, and your plan is built around your goals.
We look for the cause of your pain, not just the spot that hurts, because pain in one area is often driven by a problem somewhere else. That approach, combined with nearly four decades of experience in Kensington, is why patients across Bethesda, Rockville, and Silver Spring trust us with their recovery. We were also recognized by Bethesda Magazine for physical therapy for athletic injuries.
INDIVIDUALIZED THERAPY PLANS
Patients are provided with individualized rehabilitation programs using cutting-edge approaches and techniques. We treat problem areas both generally and specifically in order to impact the problem from above and below. All treatments are progressed to maximize the speed of recovery but also to minimize your discomfort. Your goals are always considered when normalizing your symptoms and function. A home program is usually begun on the first visit and we will explain your diagnoses. Therapists often help each other so patients can benefit from our collective experience.
MANUAL THERAPY EXPERTS
What is manual therapy? Why does manual therapy work? Manual therapy means "skilled use of the hands." Research has proven that normalizing posture and joint mobility speeds recovery and maintains progress. Our therapists go beyond assessing just strength and flexibility by testing for significant joint malalignment and decreased motion. Our postural-structural evaluations are very thorough and often include a full body assessment. This significantly enhances our ability to find the source problems.
STATE OF THE ART FACILITY
Our large fully equipped gym gives patients immediate access to equipment designed to optimize strength, endurance, flexibility, balance and coordination. The equipment is ergonomically designed and patient friendly. Having this facility allows us to easily set up training programs for gyms where the patients have memberships.
