Physical Therapy for Active Adults in Richmond VA - Grit Physical Therapy & Performance
Get Back to Training Without Pain
One-on-one physical therapy designed for active adults who refuse to let pain sideline their goals. We help you recover from injuries, build strength, and return to the gym, field, or course with confidence.
What Happens When Pain Goes Unchecked
Your Training Takes a Hit
You skip workouts, cut volume, or avoid movements that hurt—and watch your strength and conditioning slip away.
The Injury Keeps Coming Back
Rest helps for a while, but as soon as you ramp back up, the pain returns. You're stuck in the same frustrating cycle.
You Lose Confidence in Your Body
Every rep, mile, and swing feels uncertain. You wonder if you'll ever feel like yourself again in training or competition.
Physical Therapy Built for How You Train
We're not your typical PT clinic. You'll work one-on-one with a Doctor of Physical Therapy who understands the demands of serious training and knows how to get you back to peak performance.
One-on-One Every Session
A full hour with your PT—no aides, no rotating. Just focused, expert care tailored to your sport.
Sport-Specific Rehab
We design treatment around the movements you do—lifting, running, throwing—so you're ready to compete.
Advanced Tools and Techniques
Manual therapy, dry needling, BFR training, and force plates give us more ways to help you recover faster.
Out-of-Network On Your Terms
No insurance hassles. Pay a flat rate, get a superbill for reimbursement, and spend real time fixing the problem.
She is the best and helps me heal from all my injuries. Go to her with any injury and she will fix you.

Common Questions About Physical Therapy at Grit
Here are answers to the questions we hear most often from active adults considering physical therapy at Grit PT & Performance.
No. Virginia allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can schedule an evaluation without a doctor's referral. We'll coordinate with your physician if needed.
It depends on your injury and goals, but most active adults see significant progress within 6-8 sessions. We'll give you a clear plan during your evaluation.
Not unless absolutely necessary. Our goal is to modify your training so you can stay active while you recover. We work with your schedule and your sport.
You'll pay a flat rate at each session, and we'll provide a superbill you can submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement. No surprise bills, no pre-authorization delays.
Wear comfortable athletic clothing you can move in. Bring any recent imaging or reports if you have them, and be ready to talk about your training and goals.
