As a runner, cyclist, and lifter, I started working with Dr. Zoë Pond-McPherson, PT, DPT after giving birth to help strengthen my pelvic floor postpartum… With Zoe’s help, I was back to my baseline running within a few weeks. She has been flexible working with my schedule and conducting at-home visits which are great with a little one. Can’t recommend her enough, whether it’s postpartum or a sports injury.

I cannot recommend Dr. Lauren O’Shea, PT, DPT highly enough. She is a truly exceptional physical therapist who is not only knowledgeable and skilled, but also incredibly caring and supportive. If you are looking for a physical therapist in Washington, D.C. who is knowledgeable, skilled, caring, and supportive, I highly recommend Lauren. She is the best physical therapist I have ever had.

I came to Movement X with an issue in my lower left back, where I couldn’t bend over without intense pain there. I spoke to Dr. Rich Ortiz, PT, DPT, about it and he was quick with ideas on how to approach it. I have been following his exercise recommendations and the pain has almost subsided completely. I recommend him if you are dealing with any sort of muscle or joint issues.
