Capitol Physical Therapy

I've never had any known issues with my body movement and also wasn't injured - but through years of moving my body in certain ways I developed Sciatica & Disc Issues. I have been lost & confused for a year and a half trying to figure out my new reality - and previously didn't have any luck with another PT back in Chicago. When it flared up again this summer my PCP encouraged me to re-try PT, and I'm glad I found Capitol PT! I've been coming to Capitol PT for about 3 months now to see Dr. Kaitlyn and she has been an angel in disguise of human form. She does an amazing job of creating a safe space to discuss what's going on with my body and helping educate me for what my body needs to keep me optimistic about my future. In the short time I've been going, I've been able to better equip myself with the unique movements my body needs to minimize pain while also work on getting stronger again! I'm excited to continue my journey with her. I also need to mention that the front desk staff here is also amazing - they always greet me with a bubbly smile and always work with my schedule to try and find what I need! They really care - and unfortunately that is a rare thing we face as patients sometimes!

I came in to receive help with a hamstring injury that had not been getting better over a four month rest period and thank goodness I was in the hands of Alice Aehl. Highly intelligent and versatile in her treatment methodologies she helped isolate the area of pain and laid out a detailed plan to get me back on track to my running ways. Through her treatment, my leg was feeling stronger and stronger each week to the point that the pain had subsided and I was on a path to running again. I would highly recommend Alice to anyone in need of physical therapy treatment!

I highly recommend Alice as a PT. She was excellent in helping me recover from my neck injury. She identified stretches and exercises to help me address my pain and nerve issues. She is also caring, easy to talk to, and took the time to listen to my concerns and address my questions.

I’ve been going to see Dr. Subha for a few years now to treat TMJ and she’s helped me tremendously. At the start I had jaw locking, clicking and pain that was causing migraines. Her expertise helped me overcome the serious problems that TMJ was causing and live pain-free for the first time in several years. Not to mention she’s kind and very caring. It is extremely difficult to find qualified people to treat TMJ and so for anyone in the DMV area looking for a proven expert to treat their pain, look no further than Dr. Subha!

Subha is hands down the best physical therapist I have ever seen and also very likely in DC. She is kind and smart, works with the latest evidence-based approaches, uses a variety of techniques including dry needling, manipulation of the body, and exercises. She is willing to be responsive to the patient's needs and feedback and also has good referrals to other specialists if needed. I highly recommend her. I've been going to her for nearly 2 years now to try to get back into shape and working order from hip, knee, and foot issues... almost there!

Subha is a fantastic physical therapist. It’s clear that she actually cares about her patients. Subha goes above and beyond to help her patients get better and continues her own education to be up to date on new treatments. Unlike some other PTs I’ve been to, she’s very involved and hands on for stretches/exercises, and is extremely knowledgeable about the body and how injuries impact other parts of the body. I would absolutely recommend Subha. She accepted my insurance and her office did a verification to help me understand my financial responsibility.

Subha Nagasubramanian has been amazing helping me heal from two major orthopedic surgeries. Every time I come for a session, she is able to make even the smallest adjustment that makes the biggest difference in my gait and getting my independence back. She listens to all my concerns and gives me helpful solutions. I have gone to physical therapy many times throughout my life and have never had someone as knowledgeable and precise as Subha. After a lifetime of pain, it can me hard to not get discouraged, but Subha always lends an ear and gives really beneficial encouragement and perspective. I am really grateful I chose Capitol PT for physical therapy and I highly recommend them to anyone!

Subha is a natural healer! I was experiencing lot of back pain after a running injury and felt hopeless until I saw Subha. She explains the exercises well and makes sure you know exactly what to between sessions. She listened to my goals and was extremely helpful! The office management staff is also super friendly. They make appointments really simple and are very knowledgable about insurance benefits. All around, CPT is a wonderful practice.
