Dr. Maya was terrific and we resolved my pain in half the number of sessions we expected at the start.

Dr. Maya Drummond provided excellent and compassionate service for my physical therapy, not only addressing immediate issues but giving very helpful preventive advice. Unlike larger PT offices that are usually crowded with clients spread out over an open factory-floor setting, CPT is very focused on you as an individual, and they take into account the others you work with outside their practice on your physical well-being including personal trainers. That's a really nice touch - it's more holistic than I normally get from the huge PT operations linked to big specialist medical practices (orthopedists, etc).

My physical therapy experience with Dr. Valerie is the best I could have imagined! I was searching for a knowledgeable, people-centered physical therapist before a major gender-affirmation surgery. Finding the perfect physical therapist with the combination of skills and openness for my particular need wasn't easy, so I was relieved and thrilled after my first consultation. I was immediately comforted by Dr. Valerie's warmth, encouraged by her expertise, and pleasantly surprised by her willingness to jump into things right away! I was in great shape as I entered surgery because of my early sessions with her; and my post-surgery work with her made all the difference in my recovery. I might even have more flexibility and strength after surgery than I did before, even with a serious functional fitness routine. And most of all, I always looked forward to our appointments, appreciated her grace with traffic, learned new things about my body, and benefited by the fact that CPT is in network, so I paid only $30 per session, which was meaningful after having over 12 sessions. I can't recommend Dr. Valerie enough!

Does physical therapy hurt?

Capitol Physical Therapy | Sep 18, 2021

In general, no. There may be some exercises that push you a little beyond your comfort zone, but you should never feel anything more than a minor strain, the same way you would after a session at the gym. If your physical therapy treatment is painful, that’s a sign there’s something wrong. Stop the exercise and let your therapist know.

How many times do I need to see a physical therapist before I start seeing results?

The answer to this question depends on your issues and your goals. In general, however, you’ll see your physical therapist more at first, and less as time goes on.

In most cases, no. The District of Columbia is direct access, which means you can see a physical therapist without a doctor’s referral. Most health insurance companies will reimburse you for it as well. The only exception is if you’re on Medicare.
