Spinal manipulation in Washington, DC.

Spinal manipulation is a precise, skilled movement applied to one segment of your spine that has stopped gliding the way it should. Done well, range comes back fast, and you usually feel it before you sit up off the table.

It is not the treatment, though. It is a window. The reason that segment locked up is normally somewhere else: a hip that will not rotate, a mid-back that will not extend, a deep stabilizer that quietly stopped switching on. So we open the range, then load it, so your body has a reason to keep it. Trupti is certified in Maitland Australian manual therapy, Mulligan Movement with Mobilization, and the McKenzie Method, and the technique is chosen from your exam findings, not from habit. You are one-on-one with a licensed physical therapist, every visit, so the person who examined you is the person treating you.

A lot of people land here after care that felt good and did not last. Nigel C. is one: “I was having serious and long-term lower back issues and had bounced between some good and bad physios. I’d also tried chiro, but with little lasting effect.” Elaine N. had years of back pain and months of therapy elsewhere: “I learned much more about my back, the source of my pain, and the path to recovery after the discovery session than I did after months of sessions at another place!”
