Physical therapy is a healthcare specialty that focuses on improving movement, reducing pain, and enhancing overall physical function. Physical therapists use exercises, manual therapy, and other techniques to treat injuries, chronic conditions, and post-surgical recovery. The goal is to help patients regain strength, flexibility, and mobility, and to prevent future injuries by promoting healthy movement patterns.
Therapy Designed for the Individual
All people are different and there is not ‘one-method’ approach for all patients let alone all injuries. Our Physical Therapy Department designs a therapy program specifically for you. After personalized evaluation and diagnosis, we will provide a plan of treatment and prevention designed to get you back to your peak health as efficiently and safely as possible.
Physical Therapy as Part of Your Training Program
A well-designed physical therapy plan can be incorporated into your normal training routine to get you better prepared for competitions or as a way to prevent potential injuries from occurring. It will also combine with your training routine to improve strength, speed, agility, coordination and flexibility.

“I never realized how important body alignment was until I was suffering from knee and back pain after minor knee surgery. Physical therapy combined with chiropractic care has been the key to my recovery. I discovered that physical therapy can only be optimized when the body is in proper alignment. Dr. Fritz has been instrumental in my recovery. He is very knowledgeable and effective in his treatments and I have learned so much under his care. He will ensure that you are properly aligned but will also discuss and recommend nutrition aspects that help to optimize any recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Fritz and all of his support staff at United Wellness & Sports Rehab Falls Church.” – J Rode
