High-Performance Physical Therapy in DC

I cannot say enough positive things about this PT practice. Luke and Joe helped my son with a running overuse injury and worked with him to prevent further overuse injuries as well. This allowed him to get back to the sport that he loves and this was not only a physical recovery but a mental one as well. Being competitive runners themselves allowed for such highly personalized and individual attention. I highly recommend this PT practice.

This is the best PT practice I've ever been to. Pam took a thorough and compassionate intake and then I worked work Luke Cancilla for several months as I recovered from surgery. I had previously been working with another PT in a different practice who for months could not figure out what was wrong and left me with limited mobility and a sense of hopelessness. Luke is outstanding and was able to figure out quickly why I wasn't recovering and got me mobile and active within just a few sessions.

I cannot thank Jessie Grimmer PT, DPT enough for her exceptional care during my recovery from a partial ACL tear in my right knee. Over the past five months, Jessie's professionalism, expertise, and personalized approach made all the difference in my healing journey. She skillfully incorporated a variety of techniques, including electric stimulation, massage, targeted exercises, and strength-building routines, to restore my mobility and confidence.

"I can't recommend this place enough. I've gone to Joe Norton PT and Luke for years for so many different issues: torn hip labrums, chronic knee pain, back & shoulder pain, concussions, and more - and each time, the incredible team is able to figure out exactly what's going on and help me get better. They are professional, kind, extremely knowledgeable, and take a real full-body approach, which helps enormously with resolving both acute pain or injuries and also building and maintaining a strong and healthy baseline to prevent future injuries. This place has healed me in so many ways, and more than I even thought was possible! Thank you so much! Highly recommended!"

"I'm just back from running a strong Berlin Marathon after a stress injury forced me to defer last year and its because of Luke at Joe Norton PT! As a runner in a larger body I have not had a good experience with previous PT groups who weighed me at the start and end of treatment and told me I needed to lose weight. That is not the case at this practice. I was treated as an athlete from the first visit and weight was never mentioned. Luke treated my injury and worked with me to build strength so I could continue my desire to be a life long runner. If you are an athlete in DC go to this practice to get you back on track for your goals and have fun while working hard. I'm not sure whats next for my running but know Luke will help me reach my goals."

"I love Kelly and this whole PT practice! I switched from Pivot PT and this place is 5,000x better. Kelly spends a full hour with me. My tennis elbow and severe neck & shoulder pain are so much better. I love that they don’t only show you exercises. She also does massage, gentle manipulation and dry needling. I highly recommend them."

"Joe is the best! I run with a local club in the city and everyone knows Joe and trusts him to get them past any injury. He helped me in only two appointments with a nagging hip issue."

"Best in the business! They’re my favorites for running-specific PT. Great group and great results. Would highly recommend!"

"Joe is a consummate professional, knowledgeable, friendly, diligent, and thorough. Feel lucky to have worked with him!"

"Initially, my only reservation about the practice was that they were out of network however by avoiding surgery I saved thousands in overall medical bills. I tried three other practices that were in network before committing to Joe Norton’s and none of them held a candle to the individualized quality of care and service. I just had a follow-up appointment with my doctor today who was incredibly impressed by how well I have quickly progressed since seeing Luke. Getting back to running was imperative for my quality of life and I could not have done it without Joe Norton’s practice I will forever be grateful for what they have done for me. If you are an injured runner I promise this is the place!"
