“After suffering with chronic back pain and advancing hip and knee pain, my osteopath recommended physical therapy, but only if I went to Marcie Schwartz. I hesitated at his suggestions as I had tried PT before with little result. My first encounter with Marcie was totally different. She talked me through my physical history, motivations and goals. Her anatomical knowledge is impressive. She proceeded to run me through several strength measurements and stretches, ultimately arriving at a diagnosis and a brief demonstration of how to begin strengthening my “inner core”. I didn’t even know I had one. My life’s changed since meeting Marcie. I’ve adopted her exercise regimen and the crippling back spasms that were defining my life are gone. The hip and knee pain that I was struggling with is gone. My overall attitude has changed from self pity to optimism and determination. I give much of the credit to Marcie. Do yourself a favor and call her.”- J.B.

“Marcie Schwartz is a skilled practitioner of physical therapy. She has a consummate knowledge of the human body which rivals that of many physicians. In her twenty years of practice, Marcie has developed important skills which not only enable her to provide relief from physical pain but also to impart feelings of empathy and comfort. Marcie is kind, compassionate and authentic. She has treated me for back issues and created a workout plan which is appropriate to my age and abilities. I cannot recommend her highly enough and hope to continue our work together for many years to come.”- P.F.

“An amazing physical therapist who listens to me about my 'broken bits,' and honestly tells me what she can do, and what I should do to retain her therapy. There is no one way to approach therapy, and she knows them all. Definitely recommend Marcie for any muscular- skeletal issues.”-J.R.

“Marcie is a consummate professional with a deep understanding of a combination of techniques to relieve pain, and strength, and improve endurance, flexibility, and range of motion. She provides clear and honest explanations of treatment options and puts the needs of her patients first. Over the years she has addressed the many injuries of our high school and college-age soccer and rugby-playing sons, as well as the occasional needs of their parents. In our family, her advice is so trusted she is the first person we think of when a new injury occurs.”- A.A.

“Marcie works wonders. I trust her judgement and decades worth of experience and expertise when it comes to helping me and my family address and resolve all manner of pains and injuries.”- R.R.

“Marcie is highly professional and natively compassionate, and in my modest opinion is the best physical therapist in the DC metro area”- A.L.
