Advantage Physical Therapy

I saw Jenna, DPT for pelvic floor therapy post-surgery for about 4-ish months and she was amazing. Let's start from the beginning...

I had surgery in June 2022, around late July I called to get an appointment with Jenna but there was a 6-8 week waitlist. She's the only pelvic floor therapist there, so get on the waitlist early if you know you're going to need it. They accept insurance unlike a lot of PTs in our area, so that's why I chose them in addition to Jenna's good reviews online.

On day 1, I completed a short questionnaire asking about my symptoms. I met with her and she did a thorough intake. Be prepared to talk about your body in detail, I find it helpful to be specific with my doctors when I'm trying to reach a goal (100% healthy), so I share dates and exact details. She came up with a plan for my care and we continued to meet for the next few months. We had great conversations as she massaged and stretched my body. She was respectful and asked permission for everything that was invasive.

Techniques:
- She has a background as an athlete and uses Chinese medicine with cupping for the healing process and I loved that.
- She drew and wrote out the stretches I need to do for homework daily.

Here's the kicker, I went to my doctor for some odd spasms I was having. The same day I had PT with Jenna, I told her the symptoms, she looked at my spine, saw some slight misalignments, then stretched me like a pretzel. My back cracked real good and I lie to you now 85% of my spasm pain was gone after that. I was shocked! It was at that point, when I said "I'm seeing a physical therapist for pain before my doctor from here on out". I bet so many people are walking around taking medication for things that could be solved with a good stretch and crack of the spine. Amazing!

Advantage is absolutely wonderful! I see Sarah to rehab my knee after TKR plus two additional surgeries to repair a ruptured patellar tendon, then a cast for 3 months. Sarah is very supportive and encouraging.....even though she puts me through my paces (and sometimes it's not real comfortable), I'm making consistent progress and I credit Sarah with motivating me to keep working hard. Although I don't work with the other therapists at Advantage, they are all friendly, supportive of all of the clients and very well-trained in their field. I meed to have my other knee replaced, and when the time comes for rehab I'll be back under Sarah's care at Advantage.

Super people. Great therapy and convenient availability of therapists.
Easy parking and a convenient location. Front office is awesome. very professional and available. I have been a patron for years and have had terrific results on Back, knee and Foot therapy
As an injury prone senior adult, I turn to these folks first.

I'm a huge fan of Sam Corbin at Advantage Physical Therapy. He's really good at dry needling, and that technique is amazing for taking away aches and pains. They use hot and cold packs on you after the dry needling--it feels better than going to the spa. He will also teach you helpful exercises. Everyone in the office is so friendly. They take some insurance, you can also do self pay and you can use a health savings card if you have one. Parking is easy--there's a free garage nearby.

My daughter was born with congenital deformities of her lower legs & feet resulting in 2 bilateral Achilles tendon releases as an infant and subsequent casting. As a result, she has mobility issues, and can't run, jump or easily climb stairs. She began seeing Sarah, and we are extremely happy with the treatment received. Sarah did a wonderful job of listening to her needs and came up with a plan that was realistic and doable for a busy adolescent. She is always encouraging and knows how to motivate people to do their best, especially adolescents. That's not an easy thing to do!

John and Mike have been taking care of me, my wife and my son for years and have consistently gotten us back on our feet post injury/surgery and back to our sports (even if it's probably time to hang up the basketball sneakers for good). Excellent staff who always work with us and our changing schedules and knowledgeable and friendly therapists. Best PT office in NoVa!

These guys are the best - so much so that I had to write a review! Mike and his team at Adv PT are professional, courteous, flexible, and expert at what they do - aid in recovery in an efficient and amazing way. I have been a patient for 2 years (3 times a week) following four shoulder surgeries and have them to thank for my recovery and path to healing. John Sartore has been my go to therapist every week for 2 years and is the best! And for the very few times that we have not been able to connect, the other staff have stepped in seamlessly and efficiently to support my 3x/week schedule. I refer everyone I know to these guys. Don't go anywhere else - these guys have perfected PT and injury rehab.

Mike Reing and team are an absolutely pleasure. Mike is working with my son after his total knee replacement. My son actually looks forward to PT and to work with Mike... that is because Mike knows how to work with Kids, how to get them to visualize progress and make them confident to do things they never thought they could do. I have seen progress after each session.... well worth a trip even if you have to travel to get to their facility. The leadership at the facility have set a standard that makes all the staff so much better.

I'm writing this review on behalf of my mom who was treated by the great people at this place, specifically, John Sartore.

She has just finished a 3 month rehabilitation program for her rotator cuff (post surgery) and would like to express gratitude for the professionalism and compassion she received from staff. Highly recommended, 5 stars!

I have had many PT sessions here with Jon for hip and shoulder pain (dance and swim injuries). He was referred to me by my friend who is a competitive martial artist. Jon is a great physical therapist and the other therapists seem very knowledgeable as well. The front desk and techs are so nice and have worked there for at least a couple of years.
